David Murray is the Co-founder and CEO of Confirm, a performance management system that enables CEOs to increase capital efficiency. As a product designer, he began his career as a Product Manager at Google, where he received the Google Founders Award and EMG Award for his work on Gmail. In this episode… Performance review metrics are often based on an arbitrary rating system that favors managers' perceptions. This system focuses on numbers rather than employees' tangible impacts, so top-performing team members aren't recognized accordingly. How can leaders maximize employee performance reviews and recognition? According to performance management optimizer David Murray, 15% of employees contribute to 50% of performance outcomes, while 5% create 50% of organizational challenges. Considering these statistics, David recommends developing a transparent performance management system in which managers set employee expectations about individual performance metrics. To identify high-performers, you can request feedback from each team member about who they go to for advice and who creates the most conflict. This can eliminate manager bias and ensure quiet contributors are recognized appropriately. In this week's episode of The People Strategy Podcast, Traci Austin hosts David Murray, the Co-founder and CEO of Confirm, to talk about improving organizations' performance management systems. David discusses his tool that measures individual impact, his research on team development and performance, and how identifying personal and professional goals enhances performance reviews.

Well, it's because every leader is unique and has their own style and way of leading their team. By coming together and forming a bond in your organizations leadership team, you can begin norming better than ever before. I use the DISC assessment with every client and team I work with and have found it to be a real game-changer for the entire team. This is certainly no different when you have a group of leaders together. In order for them to work together in unison, they have to begin by knowing each other very well. That's where the DISC comes in, so I will mix the DISC behavioral styles in throughout this series.

As a network and security expert, Adam was also a Network Administrator at Potawatomi Casino Hotel, where he supported network resources and secured IT system delivery. In this episode… Problem-solving and critical thinking are essential skills for conflict resolution, yet they require problem-led leadership to execute. Leaders must navigate complex challenges while fostering collaboration and preventing team burnout. How can leaders refine these skills to drive actionable solutions and maintain a productive team environment? While leaders and managers must direct their teams to identify the problem and its impact on the organization, they shouldn't devise solutions. Instead, IT director Adam Gruszcynski suggests coaching your team to resolve the conflict by empowering them with critical thinking and problem-solving techniques. This may involve eliciting three diverse solutions and encouraging team members to think critically about the results or consequences. Communication and collaboration are essential to agreeing on viable solutions. In the final episode of The People Strategy Podcast's Leadership Development Series, Traci Austin and Adam Gruszcynski, the IT Director at Potawatomi Casino Hotel, discuss the interplay between conflict resolution, problem-solving, and critical thinking. Together, they explore strategies for prioritizing issues, ensuring transparent communication, and preventing team fatigue during prolonged problem-solving sessions.

As a network and security expert, Adam was also a Network Administrator at Potawatomi Casino Hotel, where he supported network resources and secured IT system delivery. In this episode… Conflict resolution in the workplace is often viewed as a daunting challenge. Many leaders navigate through issues that aren't directly related to them but impact team dynamics and productivity. Yet conflict isn't always negative, so how can it catalyze actionable results in your organization? Leadership developer Adam Gruszcynski emphasizes identifying the root causes of conflict, which often lie beneath surface issues. He outlines four common types of conflict: task, process, status, and relationship conflicts. Accountability is essential in mitigating task and process conflicts since individuals may have varied approaches to accomplishing tasks. Adam also mentions allowing team members the freedom to determine their methods while maintaining alignment on the end goal. His approach to resolving status and relationship conflicts involves fostering open communication and encouraging individuals to address conflicts directly with their peers before stepping in as a moderator. In the sixth edition of The People Strategy Podcast's Leadership Development series, Traci Austin and Adam Gruszcynski of Potawatomi Casino Hotel discuss conflict resolution. Adam shares how passive, aggressive, and assertive behaviors manifest during conflict, the role of behaviors in team communication, and how to foster conflict resolution in your team.

As a network and security expert, Adam was also a Network Administrator at Potawatomi Casino Hotel, where he supported network resources and secured IT system delivery. In this episode… The highest-performing teams work together to achieve a common goal, but this synergy can become hampered when team members compartmentalize information because they fear losing their jobs. How can leaders empower and elevate their teams? When employees withhold information from the rest of the team, they exhibit a lack of trust and a fear of conflict and collaboration. Team builder Adam Gruszcynski maintains that certain levels of conflict are healthy since they invite spirited discussions to work through issues, accelerate collaborative decision-making, and build strength within the team. Trust and accountability are the secrets to a functional team, so displaying vulnerability, appreciating each team member for their contributions, and accepting responsibility are crucial in elevating performance. In this edition of The People Strategy Podcast's Leadership Development series, Traci Austin and Adam Gruszcynski, the IT Director at Potawatomi Casino Hotel, talk about designing highly functional teams.

In this episode… Eighty-two percent of managers report having little or no ability to hold their teams accountable. This often occurs when they lack the tools and resources for effective accountability, or the organization equates accountability with negative conversations. However, accountability promotes effective leadership and performance. How can you hold your team accountable? Only 14% of employees believe their performance is managed correctly, necessitating solid accountability structures and performance management. IT team leader Adam Gruszcynski advises conducting one-on-one meetings with employees to discuss goals and task completion. During these meetings, leaders should assess their employees' management needs and adjust their leadership style accordingly. This ensures a productive and positive experience. You can also leverage productivity tools like Asana or Monday.com to organize tasks and monitor completion.  In this week's episode of The People Strategy Podcast, Traci Austin and Adam Gruszcynski, the IT Director at Potawatomi Casino Hotel, discuss employee accountability strategies.

As a network and security expert, Adam was also a Network Administrator at Potawatomi Casino Hotel, where he supported network resources and secured IT system delivery. In this episode… Studies show that 80% of the workforce is not engaged, with 71% of people dissatisfied with their development opportunities. While alarming, these statistics demonstrate the need for employee engagement to increase retention. How can organizations ensure their workforce remains motivated, productive, and aligned with the company's goals? With highly engaged workforces, organizations experience 21% profit increases. IT leadership developer Adam Gruszcysnki has identified five key drivers of employee engagement: role alignment, team cohesion, customized leadership, and culture development. During the interview process, leaders must ensure candidates can execute a position's core roles and responsibilities, allowing them to grow and develop within the organization. Individual contributions drive team performance, so encouraging your team to collaborate and demonstrating recognition and appreciation for their work promotes increased engagement. Team members have diverse learning styles, so Adam emphasizes tailoring your leadership to individual needs.

What's involved in a coaching session, and how can coaches and leaders maximize their relationship with one another? Executive leader Adam Gruszcynski maintains that the value of a coaching session hinges on effective communication and trust. During sessions, coaches must ask probing, in-depth questions to elicit honest responses from their mentees. This includes holding space for the mentee without judgment.

While managers oversee tasks and ensure process continuity, true leaders inspire, innovate, and bring out the best in their teams. How can you transform from a manager into an influential leader? IT leader Adam Gruszcynski describes transformational leaders as those who encourage their team members to work toward both individual and shared visions. This involves mentoring employees and modeling behaviors and actions to execute the organization's mission, vision, and values. Additionally, treating mistakes and failures as learning opportunities rather than lecture sessions empowers team members to make autonomous decisions and improve continuously. Leaders can also have one-on-one sessions with each team member to address personal goals, roadblocks, and performance, cultivating trust and transparency. Join Traci Austin in this episode of The People Strategy Podcast as she hosts Adam Gruszcynski, the IT Director at Potawatomi Casino Hotel, to talk about transformational leadership strategies.

Language evaluations are challenging enough; but when we're evaluating multilingual and bilingual students, they become even more complex. When clinicians ask me about language evaluations, the questions are typically:What tools/protocols can I use? Who can I go to for help? How can I advocate for change if current policies don't support best practices?That's why I invited Prabhu Eswaran and Puja Goel to episode 186 of De Facto Leaders to help answer some of these questions as they relate to multilingual learners.  Prabhu Eswaran is an ASHA certified school-based speech-language pathologist in Los Angeles, California. His areas of interests include child language disorders, communication disorders in culturally and linguistically diverse populations and technology in special education. He is now serving in the advisory board of MCCG SAC-ASHA's Executive Board. Puja Goel, MA, CCC-SLP, PNAP, (she/her/hers) is a multilingual school-based speech language pathologist (SLP) who has worked for the Chicago Public Schools and currently works in New Mexico as a supervising SLP.
