Each week, I collect the resources related to leadership, personal growth, and professional development I shared on social media the prior week, with the accompanying quotations.
……..
Gary Burnison, CEO of Korn Ferry:
“What Really Matters” (2-9-25).
“Whether we’re immersed in warmth and love or burdened by heartache and tragedy, each day starts the same for all of us. With every sunrise, we have a choice of how we show up—to be there for each other.”
……..
Jon Clifton and Benedict Vigers, Gallup:
“What Do People Need Most From Leaders?” (2-11-25).
“Hope stands out as the dominant need, accounting for 56% of all attributes tied to positive leaders ….
….
…. But when hope — the foundational need — is combined with trust and either compassion or stability, rates of thriving increase again.”
……..
Doug Glener of Blanchard, with the observations of Bob Freytag:
“Research Round-up: Balancing Empathy and Accountability”
(12-17-24).
“Think of accountability as an outcome of a partnership between you and your people. When trust has been built and there is mutual respect, you have a much better chance of creating a feeling of ownership with others. When you can help people better own the outcomes they are responsible for, then accountability is something you do with each other.”
……..
Dan Rockwell:
“Consensus Poisons Dynamic Options” (2-14-25).
“Never make decisions until there’s disagreement. Peter Drucker said, ‘The first rule in decision-making is that one does not make a decision unless there is disagreement.’
Practice constructive disagreement.”
