An employee mass exodus is taking place – right in front of our eyes. And it isn’t because of a so-called labor shortage. Instead, we have a RESPECT shortage – and we have far too many workplace cultures that suck.As business leaders are now (finally) learning, today’s workplace can’t – and shouldn’t – function like it did just a few short years ago. As leaders, we must treat employees, customers, and stakeholders with the respect they deserve. And, we must care just as much about respect as we do results.In other words, we must ensure good comes first. Then, and only then, can we expect metrics like engagement, retention, customer service, productivity and profits to improve.My job (and I love my job!) is to help organizations, leaders, and employees see this tsunami of change for what it is: an opportunity to lead, work, think – and compete – differently.How do I help?- I guide leaders to create a purposeful, positive, and productive work culture – a company culture where people expect respect, and the daily showing of respect inspires better results.- I help leaders understand (and then improve) their current level of Workplace Intelligence (WQ) – a metric that helps leaders understand how their teams work best together.- Through coaching and mentoring, I empower professionals, from college graduates to CEOs, to realize their career – and their voice – matters, and I help them get their voice heard.I was recently honored when Inc. Magazine included me in their “Top 100 Leadership Speakers” list and “Top 50 Leadership Innovators.” In addition, Entrepreneur, Forbes, Inc., The Economist, HBR, and many other major publications have featured my work and voice.As a speaker, I’m passionate about delivering “actionable inspiration.” So, we don’t just talk about the “why” – we dive into the “what” and “how.” My goal at every event is to lead an interactive discussion that inspires audience members to go beyond TALKING action… to TAKING action.As the pandemic lifts, I look forward to once again speaking at major events, conferences, corporate leadership forums and industry associations. Pre-pandemic, I spoke internationally at Ignite, IBM Insight, for the Digital Citizenship Institute, and many others. I’ve also spoken for Harvard and the University of China in Hong Kong, Columbia, Princeton, NYU, UCLA, and many other universities.To learn more about how I can help your organization put good first, discover your team’s collective level of Workplace Intelligence (WQ), or inspire action at your next event, reach out here on LinkedIn!
