Management & Leadership

There has rarely been a time where business leaders are universally managing in crisis. Remote working, the Great Resignation, economic challenges, cost challenges, supply chain issues, and the impact of technological advancements, such as AI create managerial challenges perhaps as never before. And yet, ever-increasing expectations and investor demands must still be met. The widely accepted belief that a leader's job is to hit targets and manage their numbers is magnifying the crisis. Paradoxically, it's this myopic obsession with financial performance that will ultimately damage profitability and end up creating an even greater crisis. Instead, now is the exact time to view the leader's role in an entirely different light, which is that leader's are primarily responsible for creating and sustaining an eco-system that encourages and supports over-performance by every individual in the organization, producing results that exceed expectations consistently. The key insight is that leaders should stop managing the outputs and instead focus on the inputs, the core of which is the corporate culture. The barrier to this being widely accepted is that culture is widely misunderstood and that it is often seen as a softer science with a vague ROI, rather than the powerful engine from which all results are generated. It's often quoted that one manages what they measure, yet cultural measures are often vague and general in nature. I discovered this firsthand when faced with a crisis as an executive at one of the UK's largest banks and discovered the recipe for a powerful transformation from a dysfunctional culture to one of the highest performing banks in the world. Here is what happened. One Friday evening, as I was preparing to head home after a long day in my new job as an executive at Barclays in London, the phone rang. It was a producer at the BBC who told us that we would be on national TV on Sunday. They had embedded three reporters on our staff in branches and call centers and had video recorded training, meetings, and interviews with their fellow "colleagues" revealing a toxic culture where customer well-being had taken a back seat to hitting financial targets. The show was called Whistleblower, and it gave a clear message that our new management team was not facing just poor management behaviors, but we had a toxic culture that had to be addressed holistically....and in record time. What resulted was a cultural overhaul for 30,000 employees that became one of the most dramatic turnarounds in UK banking history. Come on the journey with me and see: <ul> <li>How the myopic focus on profitability ironically damages profitability</li> <li>How to spot the early signs of cultural degradation before crisis strikes</li> <li>How the P&L of People and Leadership are the twin keys to unlocking stellar financial performance</li> <li>How to structure the creation of an intentional culture serving a common purpose</li> </ul> You will learn how to sustain an intentional culture by streamlining communications to end virtue signaling and connect with your organization on an entirely new, and deeper level. More relevant today than ever before, read along and see that there is, indeed, A Better Way To Win!

"What s in The Well Comes Up in The Bucket" is a book which deals with personal growth and development. The metaphor of The Well reflects what is deep inside all of us. It describes how our thoughts and emotions end up in our well. Much of those thoughts are our reaction to the thoughts and words of others. And we either reinforce those thoughts or cleanse them. The bucket represents what comes out of our well by the way we speak, act, and think. We are always in control, whether we realize it not. The story is also a personal and transformational journey: a journey of discovery and awareness that each us must undertake in order to answer our personal questions about our lives, our purpose, and our passion. The truth will not make you free. It is only when we know the truth, can we be free. And knowing the truth is vital. We are all creatures of habit. And once we realize these habits control our thoughts and actions the truth about ourselves will be revealed to us. Then we have a choice to make: to live by our truth or by our habits.

In the past few decades, technology has significantly changed the way we work and live. The lightning-fast Internet has profoundly improved the way people gather information, and telecommunications now allows us to do business expediently, almost anywhere in the world. But the truth is that the digital dialogue of email, text messaging, and social sites is no replacement for verbal, in-person communication in building relationships, whether in business or at home. In fact, while families have the benefit of communicating with each other frequently because of cell phones and text messaging, some are actually spending more time with their electronic gadgets than their spouse or children. As a sales and communication expert, Tod Novak's research reveals that some people are so connected to their tablets, smartphones, and computers that a culture is being produced that is, in actuality, disconnected from the human factor in communication. This leads us to ask ourselves: • Has our relationship with technology replaced our interpersonal relationships? • Has social isolation become the norm in our culture? • Have people become more comfortable with electronic relationships that are impersonal, detached, inaccessible, and void of face-to-face human interaction? • Aren't human relationships the basis for success in every area of our lives? Novak believes the answer to all of these questions is yes, and he offers concrete solutions to restore balance to our communication practices. Beginning with the history of technology and how we arrived where we are today, Has Technology Left Us Speechless? guides the reader through methods to communicate effectively with, without, or in addition to technology-both at work and at home, as well as between generations. Using real-life examples that demonstrate simple, specific ways to reclaim effective communication and etiquette in a world where in-person and oral dialogue is on a critical downward spiral, Novak deftly shows us how we can bring people back together-face to face-and build quality relationships to strengthen our business, our families, and our world by making the human connection.
