Each week, I collect the resources related to leadership I shared on social media the prior week, with the accompanying quotations.

Korn Ferry Insights:
“RTO and the Bottom Line:
Leaders say productivity increases when workers are in the office, but a new study asks: Do profits get any better?”
(Week of Jan. 29, 2024).
“[M]any companies may need to consider how to make the office experience more engaging for employees. ‘You can’t just order people back. You need a new office culture to get them back, or they’ll be embittered about it for the next twenty years.'”

Julien C. Mirivel and Julie Allison:

Ted Kitterman, Great Place to Work:
“7 Best Practices To Improve Employee Listening Efforts and Build Trust” (1-29-24).

John Baldoni:
“‘Stay Out of the Clubhouse‘” (2-4-24).
“Knowing, connecting, and understanding are central to effective teamwork, not simply on a ball diamond but in life itself. Any manager will do well to try to relate to his direct reports as people. A manager’s job is not to make friends but to earn their trust.”
