Listen to this insightful discussion to gain practical strategies for enhancing leadership skills and boosting organizational potential by focusing on building quality relationships and practising compassionate communication. Show notes: Esther's original Culture First Podcast Episode with Damon KlotzEsther's websiteWhere Should We Begin? The gameEsther's podcast, Where Should We Begin?Key Takeaways: Effective leaders balance empathy and accountability:Leaders need to be empathic and care about their employees' personal challenges and emotions, but they must also hold them accountable for their responsibilities. This balance ensures that employees feel supported yet understand the importance of meeting expectations and fulfilling their roles within the organization.The importance of in-person interactions:Although remote work offers convenience, it lacks the richness of in-person interactions essential for building relationships, trust, and effective collaboration. Leaders should treat in-person interactions as valuable resources and use them for activities that significantly benefit from face-to-face engagement, such as brainstorming sessions, mentorship, and fostering team cohesion.Explicit communication of expectations is key:Unstated expectations often lead to resentment and misunderstandings. By clearly articulating what they expect from their team members, leaders can ensure that team members understand their roles and responsibilities. This approach promotes accountability and reduces the potential for conflicts arising from unmet, unspoken expectations.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

[46:30] George points out the lack of attention to onboarding by leaders and the need for their involvement in the process. [47:50] He concludes by highlighting the importance of focusing on culture and relationships in a hybrid work environment. IMMEDIATE ACTION TIP: As soon as possible after someone accepts their new position, before Day One on the job, get their manager to sit down with them to co-create the person's own personal onboarding plan, particularly emphasizing culture and building relationships. RESOURCES George Bradt on LinkedIn Prime Genesis website George's book “The New Leader's 100-Day Action Plan” QUOTES "The one most important idea is you have to converge into an organization or a team before you try to evolve it. You have to become part of the team and evolve it from the inside." “If you're onboarding somebody who's working remotely, you've got to be incredibly deliberate and invest so much time in building the relationships." "Give them the time, give them clarity of direction, give them the resources, and then eventually give them the authority they needed to do what they needed to do." "All that matters is relationships. Any question, any meeting, you know, the answer to any question is you're caring about building relationships." "Acquire them in the way that's going to work going forward, accommodate them so that they can do work, assimilate them so they can work with others, and then stick with it and help them accelerate." "Ultimately, culture is the way people behave, the way they relate, their attitudes, their values, the environment. What's different with remote work is how deliberate you have to be about relationships."

Are you stressed? Or could you get benefit from getting a little more specific and looking within to see if something else is happening? Maybe you identify disappointment, exhaustion or feeling unsupported?Damon's guest today is Award-winning psychologist Susan David, and in this episode she'll break down why getting specific with our emotions activates our readiness potential, allowing us to move forward and have the necessary conversations about why work can sometimes feel really hard. As one of the world's leading management thinkers, Susan won the management idea of the year when she expertly defined emotional agility. Her book Emotional Agility went on to be a #1 Wall Street Journal bestseller and winner of an Amazon Best Books of the Year Award. With more than 11 million views, Susan's TED Talk, The Gift and Power of Emotional Courage, was named one of the most popular talks of the year.Right when the world needs it most, Susan and David discuss emotions, how we process them, how we handle them, how they show up in the workplace and then they narrow in on how to create space between ourselves and our emotions in order to take action and move forward. At the heart of this conversation is a quest to figure out why we have normalised the idea that while emotions are foundational to our experience as a human, they are still misunderstood or sometimes even excluded from our experience at work.This conversation will sharpen your emotional agility and help you learn how to see your emotions as helpful data points that signpost our deepest needs and values.If you're craving a healthier relationship with your emotions and the emotions of others this episode will help!Show notes:If you've enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, follow and leave a review.Learn more about Culture Amp at www.cultureamp.com or @cultureamp on InstagramConnect with Susan David on X @SusanDavid_PhDSusan has generously offered all Culture First listeners free access to the Emotional Agility Quiz: Join over 140,000 people who have taken the free Emotional Agility Quiz.

Welcome to Part II of this special episode with Lucy Prebble, executive producer and writer from the hit tv show Succession. If you're curious about why you both loved and hated Logan, why Shiv was as deeply flawed as her brothers and why a bromance like Tom and Greg's made us feel all kinds of things, then hit play because all those questions and more will be answered.As Lucy and Damon take a deep dive into the world of Waystar Royco and Succession, Lucy shares openly to what lengths deeply researched real world stories were used to create this fictional company, goes on to explain that Logan Roy's media mogul character was the only archetype in the show, and then takes us inside the writer's room that leaned on the power of constraint to tell this story for the ages in the most Succession-y way possible, and yes, Succession-y is a word. As hard as it was to watch at times, as the dark side of the world of work was broadcast into our living rooms, this television show that is, at it's core, about love and power - the need for it, the absence of it, and the lengths people will go to get it and then keep it - can be received as a gift to us all in the way it helps us find clarity on the types of companies and company cultures that we want to create and be part of.If you haven't already listened to Part I, where we learned about Lucy's background as a playwright in London's West End, her time as a TV Showrunner and how she nearly didn't accept the offer to work on Succession, you can - check it out here.Show notes: If you love our Pop Culture First episodes, be sure to check out this joyous conversation between Damon, Priya Parker and Gary Ware about a very different workplace run by, the legend himself, Ted Lasso.Damon also mentioned his recent conversation with Jamila Rizvi on how to make work actually work for women.

We are a house divided when it comes to tipping culture. Cole hates what it has become, while Travis is still a big fan. However, our perspectives converge on one common theme: we must remove the guilt. At the center of this toxic culture is guilt. The external forces of guilt intentionally levied on us by businesses, and the internal forces of guilt we carry with us from transaction to transaction. In today's episode, host Travis Shelton discusses why removing guilt is a critical step to having a healthy relationship with tipping, and how to remove it in your own life.
