Podcasts about most influential management thinkers

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova.    Adam Grant is a leading voice on organizational psychology and I know many of you resonate with his ideas, which is why I'm so eager to replay a conversation I had with Adam a while back.   Adam is an expert on finding motivation and meaning and living more generous and creative lives. He's been recognized as one of the world's 10 Most Influential Management Thinkers and Fortune's 40 under 40. He's the author of three New York Times bestsellers: Give and Take,  Originals,  and Option B.  Adam now hosts WorkLife, a TED original podcast after his TED talk got over 12 million views.     THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR… team members and team builders.    TODAY'S MAIN MESSAGE… Adam's research shows that interpersonal interactions that a difference in our success. At various points in our day, humans operate in three realms:  A giver, or people who ask what can I do for you? A taker, someone who asks what can you do for me? Matchers, who follow the law of reciprocity.     Yes, there are grey areas, but people usually fit in one of these categories.    One would think that placing a group of givers on a team would guarantee a culture of givers, but that's not the case. Yet, when you have a team of takers, more harm is done than good. Adam believes it's more important to screen out takers, leaving a good mix of givers and matchers.    Forming teams is more than finding similarities or matching “culture fit.” Forming teams is an important skill that finds differences and diversity of thought and identifies the holes in current teams.    WHAT I LOVE MOST… Adam's work around being better teammates and better individuals in our home and work life is inspiring. He forces us to think if we are a giver, a taker, or a matcher. How are we adjusting each day to bring our best selves to our day? This is an important question to ponder and to try to implement in your life.    Running time: 26:42   Subscribe on iTunes    Find Tiffani Online: Facebook  Twitter  LinkedIn    Find Adam Online: Website  Instagram

Are you ready to make the difference you are meant to make in the world? Anthony’s guest on this episode of In The Arena is Subir Chowdhury. He is chairman and CEO of ASI Consulting Group, LLC, a strategic initiatives, consulting, and training company that advises some of the highest level businesses in the world. Subir is considered one of the “50 Most Influential Management Thinkers in the World.” He is the author of fifteen books, including several international bestsellers. His latest book, “The Difference” is the topic of discussion for this episode. He and Anthony chat about how individuals can develop a caring mindset—one that includes straightforwardness, thoughtfulness, accountability, and resolve (STAR). Subir Chowdhurry : Make the Difference You Are Meant To Make - Episode #80Click To Tweet A caring mindset impacts a company’s success more than anything else. One of the things that prompted Subir Chowdhury to write his latest book, “The Difference” was that he noticed different results between companies that were using the exact same methodologies and systems. He wondered why one company got 2X results and another got 10X results. That prompted him to study the phenomena and what he discovered is that the companies that get the best results are the ones that possess a culture where caring is carried out effectively and practically among the team. You can hear what Subir discovered, how he’s counseled company leadership to apply it, and the results he’s seen from those who dare to make it work in their teams. How to overcome the “good enough” mindset to achieve excellence. In this conversation with Subir Chowdhury, Anthony notes that one of the biggest enemies of excellence is a mindset that “good enough” is just that - good enough. The question is this: What makes the difference between those who settle for that kind of mindset and those who excel far beyond it? That’s the question Anthony posed to Subir and his compelling answer is laced with stories and anecdotes from his own history. It’s very engaging, so be sure you listen. How to overcome the “good enough” mindset to achieve excellenceClick To Tweet You have the power to make the difference in the lives of other people, every day. When you think about making a difference in the world, do you get overwhelmed? There are so many things you COULD do that qualify as “making a difference.” What should you do? How do you even start? Subir Chowdhury’s newest book, “The Difference” highlights the ways that each of us can make a difference in the lives of others even in the mundane or normal things of daily living. He’s got a great way of describing a way forward that anyone can understand. If you want some help discovering your own path forward so you can make the difference you are meant to make, you need to hear Subir share, on this episode. If you have the passion to solve a problem, you can. Do you believe that? One of the lessons Subir Chowdhury has learned - through a variety of experiences in his own life - is that every person who truly wants to make a difference, can. But the thing that determines whether they will or not is the amount of passion they have to truly solve the problems around them they see every day. In this candid conversation, Anthony and Subir talk about why leaders in corporations and small businesses alike need to understand this principle and what they can do to make their companies places where the employees and team members truly WANT to make a difference in the lives of their customers. If you have the passion to solve a problem, you can. Do you believe that?Click To Tweet Outline of this great episode [0:24] The upcoming Virtual Sales Kickoff.
