In this episode Ben and I discuss how all companies need to think like media or marketing companies. Why? Tune into to hear this great insight. And what has Ben's extensive research identified as the #1 problem in most companies with culture/ performance. It's not what you think.  It's not bean bag chairs, ping pong tables or free snacks. Hear how craft, cause and community are three tenants you can build a modern workplace culture around. Ben's over arching message is "stop guessing and start measuring!" In his culture architect, strategic advisor and writing career, Ben Ortlip worked with some of the world's top brands, including Coca-Cola, Ritz-Carlton, Mercedes-Benz, AT&T, UPS, and Chick-fil-A. In 1990 he started a production company, Kaleo Ranch, that is still in operation. His work has been recognized by the NY Art Director's Club, the Clio Awards, the ADDYs, and others. As a ghost-writer, Ben has worked on more than a dozen books and workbooks with well-known thought leaders like John Maxwell, Tony Robbins, Andy Stanley, Patrick Lencioni, Ken Blanchard, Henry Cloud, and the Drucker Institute. In 2012, Ben's passion for organizational strategy and leadership development led him to pioneer a process called Cultural Architecting, an integrated methodology for designing and curating cultures that reinforces the company's unique business strategy. The Cultural Architecting program is already shaping culture in healthcare, dining, manufacturing, technology, and global petroleum companies. Ben published Culture is the New Leadership in 2024. Ben and his wife, Lisa, have been married 28 years and are raising eight children.

2024 is the 10th Anniversary of Miriam Webster's word of the year: CULTURE. And we still don't know what to do with it in most workplaces. Top three nuggets from the podcast: For the first time in history, we live in what Psychologist Abraham Maslow called self-actualization (see chart below) We have moved from survival in the past to success and now significance. Most of what business culture represents today for the next generation is not working  The bottom line is motivation; listen to see what to do about motivating those you work with.

This week on The Nick Halaris Show we are featuring civic leader, Michael Kelly.  Michael is the Executive Director of the Drucker Institute and the longtime leader of the LA Coalition for the Economy and Jobs, an innovative civic activist group here in Los Angeles.  With a long history working at the intersection of government and business, he has an impressive track record as a passionate advocate for practical, progressive solutions to the big problems of our day.     When I joined the LA Coalition back in the pre-pandemic days, Michael and I became fast friends over a shared passion and vision for what it means to be a good citizen.  I wanted to have Michael on the show to discuss how he's using his new role at the Drucker Institute to advocate for better leadership, governance, and corporate citizenship and to explore some the lessons he's learned from a lifetime of service and activism.  Tune-in to this fascinating episode to learn: ·      How companies are using insights and ideas from Peter Drucker's legendary body of work to not only achieve exceptional financial results but also become better corporate citizens·      The relationship between globalization and the decline in effective corporate citizenship ·      Why the best companies in the world are so focused on people (especially their own employees) and community ·      How ego often gets in the way of effective pro-business policy collaboration ·      Why businesses struggle to wield collective political influence and end-up relying so much on issue-specific lobbying·      How Michael's passion for working to create a better world and one simple cold-call to a campaign office led him to an entire career working at the intersection of government and business&·      Much, much more We also learn how the powerful example of Michael's father, a teacher who dedicated himself to service and citizenship, provided the impetus for Michael's own inspiring journey. 

Goldy and Paul interview author Rick Wartzman about how America's biggest employer (Walmart) began taking better care of its workers (by raising wages)—and why that decision might be too little, too late. According to Wartzman, Walmart has gone through a remarkable transformation, but there are limits to how much positive change this brand of socially conscious capitalism can create. Rick Wartzman is head of the KH Moon Center for a Functioning Society at the Drucker Institute, a part of Claremont Graduate University. He's the author of several books including The End of Loyalty: The Rise and Fall of Good Jobs in America, Obscene in the Extreme: The Burning and Banning of John Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath, and The King of California: J.G. Boswell and the Making of a Secret American Empire.

=> Recommend this show by sharing the link: pod.link/2Pages  As a reader and someone who's been immersed in business for 30 years, I have glanced sideways at the way institutions have become such a central part of our world. Within all of these institutions, you have individuals just trying to do their best, and do work that matters. I've seen and felt the paradox of how institutions are totally shaped by the people within them, and yet, are also a completely separate entity. So what does it mean to be part of an organization - specifically, to be a manager?  Peter Drucker is the name most synonymous with asking this question throughout his lifetime; I do wonder how he would answer it now, in these turbulent times.  Zach First is the Executive Director of the Drucker Institute, an institution founded to carry on Drucker's work, and to help people manage with courage. Prior to joining the Institute, Zach was the type to, ‘dutifully follow the standards of the institution to which he belonged,' but then at a certain point, things changed, and he stopped being a follower. Get‌ ‌book‌ ‌links‌ ‌and‌ ‌resources‌ ‌at‌ https://www.mbs.works/2-pages-podcast/ Zach reads from ‘Management' by Peter Drucker. [reading begins at 13:50]  Hear us discuss:  “Organizations are just as mysterious and complicated as the people who populate them.” [6:14] | The fight against tyranny: “The most important thing we can do is hold our institutions to the standards that we need.” [22:01] | “Management is a noble task, and one of the most important in the modern economy.” [26:13] | Making the right decisions for your institution.

The Management Top 250 ranking, developed by the Drucker Institute, measures corporate effectiveness by examining performance in five areas. This episode is also available as a multimedia blog post: https://evansonmarketing.com/2022/01/10/the-2021-top-250-best-managed-firms/

Previously unpublished talks from the Father of Modern Management. Throughout his professional life, Peter F. Drucker inspired millions of business leaders not only through his famous writings, but also through his lectures and keynotes. These speeches contained some of his most valuable insights but had never been published in book form - until now. The Drucker Lectures features more than 30 talks from one of management's most important figures. Drawn from the Drucker Archives at the Drucker Institute at Claremont Graduate University, the lectures showcase Drucker's wisdom, wit, profundity, and prescience on such topics as: Politics and economics of the environment Knowledge workers and the Knowledge Society Computer and information literacy Managing nonprofit organizations Globalization During his life, Drucker well understood that over the last 150 years the world had become a society of large institutions - and that they would only become larger and more powerful. He contended that unless these institutions were effectively managed and ethically led, the good health of society as a whole would be in peril. His prediction is unfolding before our eyes. The Drucker Lectures is a timely, instructive book proving that responsible behavior and good business can, in fact, exist hand in hand.

The goal of the Superhuman Project podcast is to help professionals learn best practices on Self-Mastery & Self Development from Industry experts and become the best version of themselves. Zachary First has been the executive director of the Drucker Institute since 2016. Under his leadership, the Drucker Institute has created the annual Management Top 250 ranking in The Wall Street Journal, the S&P/Drucker Institute Corporate Effectiveness Index and the Bendable lifelong learning system. Zach has written for The Wall Street Journal, Barron's and Harvard Business Review. He studied philosophy at Haverford College, and earned his doctorate degree in higher education from Harvard University. You can learn more about his work at https://www.drucker.institute/ Peter Ferdinand Drucker; (November 19, 1909 – November 11, 2005) was an Austrian-American management consultant, educator, and author, whose writings contributed to the philosophical and practical foundations of the modern business corporation. He was also a leader in the development of management education, he invented the concept known as management by objectives and self-control, and he has been described as "the founder of modern management".Drucker's books and articles, both scholarly and popular, explored how humans are organized across the business, government, and nonprofit sectors of society. He is one of the best-known and most widely influential thinkers and writers on the subject of management theory and practice.

Retraining workers for jobs in the digital economy has been a focus of IBM’s Ginni Rometty for a long time. Now, with coronavirus driving unemployment sky high, the need for reskilling is even more urgent. On this episode of Leadership Next, Rometty – who recently transitioned from CEO to Executive Chairman of IBM – tells Alan Murray why corporations, not the government, are best positioned to make this happen.   The two also discuss the Business Roundtable. The group represents nearly 200 companies, and in August announced it believed business has a duty to serve all stakeholders, not just shareholders. This was a big deal, and Rometty was part of the group that pushed for the change. She explains why she believes this is essential for economic success, and how she has instituted a commitment to all stakeholders at IBM. Also shedding light on how this change from the Business Roundtable came to fruition, Alan speaks with Rick Wartzman of the Drucker Institute. 

We have a very special episode of the Business Decisions podcast this week - our first solo guest episode. Our guest this week is Ben Baldwin, the Founder of The Founder City Project. Ben is also the Co-Founder of ScaleDriver and a board member of the Drucker Institute. Our goal with the podcast was to share stories from founders and business leaders that highlighted key decisions or key moments that helped shape a company's success, and that others could learn from. Ben's work with the Founder City Project shares that same vision. Bring founders together and let them share their experiences and learn from each other. Bring teams together and provide the coaching and training they need to build momentum and drive results. The Founder City Project has only been in place for just over 2 years and over 1000 founders and teams have worked with Ben and the team at FCP, giving his programs a 9.8/10 in terms of whether they would recommend FCP to others. He was kind enough to visit us at Caravel Law to talk about his efforts. He shares how the idea got started, some of the common fears and challenges that founders share, and why he is so focused on improving the performance of teams, or as he calls it, "upteaming." It's important to note that this discussion features thoughts on general topics and questions and not anyone's specific business or legal situation. Nothing you hear on this podcast should be considered legal advice.

In his new book, UCLA law professor Adam Winkler offers a revelatory portrait of how U.S. corporations have seized political power over time.

Was the period of corporate loyalty to workers simply an aberration?  In the modern era, generous salaries and benefits packages were most commonly doled out from the mid-1940's into the early 1980's.  Through the prism of four corporate behemoths, Rick Wartzman, director of the KH Moon Center for a Functioning Society at the Drucker Institute, … Continue reading EP 58 THE END OF LOYALTY TO WORKERS

The American dream used to be founded on the goal of finding a good, stable job to spend the majority of one’s career — but this is no longer the norm. Over the last seventy years, the standard employer-employee relationship has drastically changed. Companies no longer offer the same level of job security, regular pay increases, guaranteed pensions, robust health benefits and other social benefits as they did in the past. This shift in the corporate social contract has taken a toll on loyalty on both sides. Senior Advisor and former Executive Director at the Drucker Institute, Rick Wartzman, discusses his recent book "The End of Loyalty: The Rise and Fall of Good Jobs in America," which chronicles the erosion of the relationship between major American businesses and their workers. Have these new workplace practices decreased morale and productivity? How can America revitalize its middle class? What is the new American Dream?

OXYTOCIN is a hormone and it is often called the “love hormone” because of its crucial role found in relationships, social bonding, maternal behaviour and intimacy. Oxytocin spikes are found to be the highest during an orgasm or during an act of kindness.   Oxytocin is a powerful hormone and a neuropeptide that is produced in the hypothalamus and also secreted from the Pituitary Gland. Oxytocin was discovered in 1952 and is currently listed on WHO - World Health Organization's list of Essential Medicines (the most important medication needed for healthier function of human health system.)   An example of oxytocin is when two individuals are attracted to each other and the feelings of care and compassion arise, that’s all because of the rising levels of oxytocin, which we further call Love.   So Why is this hormone so important? Well, this one hormone has the power to change the world and we literally mean it .   Here is a study to back this claim. According to the New England Journal of Medicine, when we perform acts of kindness, the giver and the receiver both were found to have spiked  levels of oxytocin and the individual watching this act of kindness also reported the spiked oxytocin level.   In a recent study in New England Journal of Medicine a 28 year old person walked into a clinic and donated a kidney. This set off a “pay it forward” ripple where the recipient's family further donated their kidneys to someone in need and this domino effect eventually helped 10 people who received kidneys as a consequence of that anonymous donor.   Its very similar to the pebble that creates waves when it's dropped in a pond. The act of kindness ripples outwards touching many lives and inspiring the wave of kindness.   Why should you care about this hormone? Besides the fact the it makes you fall in love and is responsible for feelings of care and compassion.   Oxytocin exposure has also been studied to reduce social anxiety and fear. In 2015 a study conducted by Monika Exckstein and Benjamin Becker at the University of Bonn in Germany. Their aim was to prove that Oxytocin Facilitates the Extinction of Conditioned Fear in Humans.     This study had 62 participants in randomized, double blind and placebo controlled design. These individuals were exposed to the fear conditioning paradigm  by showing them photographs of faces and houses but they were accompanied by random electric shocks. Since, these photographs were non threatening and were neutral in nature, the brain couldn’t respond with presupposed fear.   30 min later they received brain scans and and the activity in their amygdala was recorded. The group was now given a mix of placebo and oxytocin nasal sprays. Then 30 mins later they were exposed to the same photos of faces and houses but without an electric shock. The subjects who received the oxytocin spray when shown the same photos as before without the electric shock, had increased activity in the prefrontal cortex (the part of the brain responsible for controlling fear.)  Therefore their brain controlled their fear significantly better than the placebo group. How to:   Those of you who are interested in knowing how to apply oxytocin and its ways in your business, team or an organization should look for the Ofactor study from Drucker Institute (we have the detailed study and links on our website jolsid.com ).   According to the Drucker Institute and quote   “ when managers  implement policies that raise trust, colleagues at work have the incentives and resources to perform better, boosting organizational performance. The neuroscience provides precise predictions for how to best practice Ovation (give praise), build eXpectations (set clear goals) and promote the other OXYTOCIN factors.” go check it out on our website.   Now for your personal use  If applied effectively under the supervision of a physician Oxytocin can increase trust, reduce anxiety and fear, promote a ripple effect of kindness. Any Creative, Entrepreneur or Athlete looking for an edge by building better personal relationships, stronger business connections, and larger fan bases must first start with an act of kindness, give more hugs and cuddle if possible (just in appropriate places please).   You can also talk to your physician if you think you have low levels of Oxytocin. But please do not take oxytocin on your own because excess use of this hormone has been linked with autism.   So, love everyone and try to spread the ripple of compassion and kindness and we can all collectively change this world.
