One of the biggest concerns organization leaders have these days is the labor market: how to win (and keep talent). And for good reason. These days, it's harder than ever to find and retain a great team. But no matter what external factors are impacting the job market, CEOs and managers can always control one thing: their leadership style. And chances are, they've been thinking about their leadership all wrong. Joining us on the Measure Success Podcast is one of the top leadership experts in the world. Stephen M. R. Covey is the New York Times and #1 Wall Street Journal bestselling author of “The Speed of Trust,” which has sold over 2 million copies worldwide. In this podcast, we discuss his latest book, “Trust and Inspire.” He's also the co-founder of CoveyLink and the FranklinCovey Global Trust Practice. A sought-after and compelling keynote speaker and advisor on trust, leadership, ethics, and collaboration, he speaks to audiences around the world. Tune into this special episode for more on Stephen's advice for how leaders can stay relevant in the labor market (no matter the external conditions), the healthier alternative to a “command and control” leadership style, the core “stewardships” that leaders have, and, of course, several of Stephen's top book recommendations. Here's a Glimpse of What You'll Learn: Why Stephen's process to finish his latest book was a 17-year journey The differences between a “command and control” leader and a “trust and inspire” one, and why context is so crucial to both methods The data behind a high-trust work culture and why the “trust and inspire” leadership value can be so powerful for shareholder value, innovation, productivity, and more How leaders can move their team from engagement to inspiration How leaders can win the war for talent, and what they need to change about their leadership styles in order to be on the cutting edge of the next era of work Some real-world examples of leaders who have changed their styles and seen great results The difference between being and doing, and why both are so important for leaders to be effective More details about the 3 stewardships that Stephen describes in his book How to stimulate more openness and transparency within a workplace More about Stephen's relationship with his father, the well-known bestselling author of “The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People” Why inspiration is a learnable skill for leaders How Stephen measures success, both in business and in his personal life Additional resources from Stephen for leaders who want to bring the best out of their teams and stay relevant amidst a new era of work Resources Mentioned in This Episode: FranklinCovey website Stephen M.

Today, I want to talk about three responsibilities that a leader should master. I will base them on the excellent book I recently read on this topic, CEO Excellence, written by Carolyn Dewar, Scott Keller and Vikram Malhotra, all senior partners at McKinsey & Company.
Being a CEO at any of the world's largest companies is among the most challenging roles in business. Billions, and even trillions, are at stake – and the fates of tens of thousands of employees often hang in the balance. Yet, even when “can't miss” high-achievers win the top job, very few prove to excel. […] The post Carolyn Dewar: Six Mindsets That Distinguish The Best Leaders appeared first on Mark C. Crowley.
In today's episode, Willy welcomes Carolyn Dewer. She founded and co-leads McKinsey's CEO excellence work, coaching many Fortune 100 CEOs to maximize their effectiveness. She works extensively with clients to drive organizational effectiveness at pivotal moments such as mergers, strategic shifts, and crises. She also leads large-scale performance improvement programs, integrating strategic, operational, and cultural initiatives. In addition to her direct work with clients, Carolyn conducts ongoing research. Among her many articles are two of the most read McKinsey Quarterly Articles of all time, The CEO's role in leading transformation and The irrational side of change management. She has also authored two foundational publications, Performance Culture Imperative: A Hard-nosed Approach to the Soft Stuff and Breaking New Ground. She is the co-author of the New York Times bestseller CEO Excellence: The Six Mindsets that Distinguish the Best Leaders From The Rest. The episode begins with Carolyn giving a brief insight into the CEOs she included in her book CEO Excellence. The outliers to her were the lesser-known but equally impressive leaders. Her inspiration for writing the book was McKinsey's landmark event, the Leadership Retreat, bringing together next-generation CEOs to learn from more experienced ones. She also wanted a clear answer to the question, "What does it mean to be a CEO?" CEOs included in the book had to have strong performance, a six-year tenure, and good reputational risk. Winning to an elite CEO looks different from the regular ones. One point is setting direction – being bold and reframing what winning looks like. She cites Mastercard CEO Ajay Banga recalibrating the company's focus from the credit card market to "killing cash." She also mentions Herbert Hainer of Adidas, bringing the brand back to its deep sense of purpose, creating the best products with science and technology. Another note-worthy CEO was Hubert Joly of Best Buy, shifting the focus on the customer experience and delivering value in-store that other stores can't do. He put into action the filter of four circles: what the world needs, what you're good at, what you're passionate about, and how you can make money. This philosophy can be used in any decision-making in one's career. Best Buy also allowed an on-site presence for brands like Apple and HP. An excellent CEO knows what you can do best, where you can add the most value in 24 hours, and where you can empower others instead of doing things yourself. The best CEOs have micro habits that propel them to the top. Aside from boldness and courage, it was also talent, culture, and design – treating the soft stuff as the hard stuff – and recognizing how they can help the directors and the board help them run the business. Mentioning Microsoft's Satya Nadella embodied the characteristics necessary for an excellent CEO, one of which is transparency. When asked why the CEO job is lonely, he said nobody underneath you could see what you can see, driving home the importance of letting others know about it. Chase's CEO Jamie Dimon dedicates an hour of his meeting to share what keeps him up at night about the company. Knowing which people on your board have expertise that can help you and be part of an extended partnership is vital.
Being the top dog isn't easy. In fact, 30% of Fortune 500 CEOs last fewer than three years. What does it take to get to the top and excel? Vikram Malhotra of McKinsey & Company joins Kevin to discuss the research findings on how the top CEOs do their job. Conversations with the best of the best revealed six similar mindsets across the board. Key Points In this episode, Kevin and Vik discuss the process of determining CEO success. Vik shares the 6 mindsets top CEOs share with a focus on being bold, treating the soft stuff like the hard stuff, and understanding team psychology. Vik shares examples of how the mindsets worked in practice. Meet Vik Name: Vikram Malhotra His Story: Vikram Malhotra is the co-author with Carolyn Dewar and Scott Keller of CEO Excellence: The Six Mindsets That Distinguish the Best Leaders from the Rest and a senior partner in McKinsey's New York office and is the longest-tenured member of the firm. He served on its Board of Directors for 13 years, its Operating Committee for six, and its Senior Partner Committee for five. He was also Managing Partner for the Americas and currently chairs the firm's Professional Standards Committee. Worth Mentioning:
Scott Keller: CEO Excellence Scott is a senior partner in McKinsey's Southern California office. He co-leads the firm's global CEO Excellence service line and is the author of six books, including the bestseller Beyond Performance. Scott spent his early consulting years working on business strategy and operational topics until his life was turned upside down when his second child was born with profound special needs. After taking time off to attend to his family, Scott returned to McKinsey with the desire to bring the best of psychology, social science, and the study of human potential into the workplace. He is a cofounder of Digital Divide Data and one of a few hundred people in history known to have traveled to every country in the world. His most recent book written with Carolyn Dewar and Vikram Malhotra is titled CEO Excellence: The Six Mindsets That Distinguish the Best Leaders from the Rest*. In this conversation, Scott and I examine McKinsey's research on what the top CEOs do (and avoid) when building great teams. We look at a few of the key mindsets that the best CEOs bring to their organizations — and how teamwork plays into this. Plus, we explore some of the key questions top leaders should ask when determining if it's time to exit someone from the team. Key Points Top leaders staff for both aptitude and attitude. The have an eye to both the short and long term. The most successful CEOs have a mindset of “first team” and expect leaders in the organization to prioritize serving the whole team/organization over any functional area. New CEOs are often known for acting quickly on staffing, but the most successful leaders also temper this with fairness. They use the four questions below to act with both fairness and speed. Top leaders stay connected with people throughout the organization, but also keep some distance. There's a key distinction between being friendly and making friends. The best CEO's ensure that they have positively addressed all four questions below before removing somebody: Does the team member know exactly what's expected of them: i.e., what the agenda is and what jobs need to be done to drive that agenda? Have they been given the needed tools and resources, and a chance to build the necessary skills and confidence to use them effectively? Are they surrounded by others (including the CEO) who are aligned on a common direction and who display the desired mindsets and behaviors? Is it clear what the consequences are if they don't get on board and deliver?
