Podcasts about performance culture

How do you build a high-performance culture without turning your company into the Hunger Games? Reed Hastings, co-founder and former CEO of Netflix, shares lessons from a career spent rewriting the rules—from severance as a management tool to “big-hearted champions who pick up the trash.” In this episode, he reveals how Netflix scaled trust, made bold bets before the data was in, and kept its edge by treating employees like adults—not assets. You'll hear how Hastings evaluates talent beyond the interview, the reason he avoids performance improvement plans, and what most leaders misunderstand about judgment, feedback, and innovation.  You'll also hear why he placed a $100 million bet on House of Cards with no pilot, how Drive to Survive changed an entire sport, and why Squid Game caught even Netflix by surprise.  Now focused on a new chapter—owning a ski mountain, reshaping education through AI tutors, and supporting charter schools—Hastings is still doing what he does best: building systems that scale culture, not just product.  If you care about performance without politics—or culture without the clichés—this is a blueprint from one of the clearest thinkers in modern business.  Approximate timestamps: Subject to variation due to dynamically inserted ads: (3:09) Powder Mountain, Skiing Industry, & Buying a Mountain (6:36) Setting Culture in an Organization (9:21) Hiring Process and Evaluating Candidates (14:24) Netflix's 2009 Slide Deck Release (16:26) Talent Density and Performance Culture (17:59) Loyalty and Team Building (19:56) Severance Packages (22:17) Process Vs.

Is there a work ethic crisis today? The guys from the All In Podcast debate Comfort Culture vs Performance Culture after recent comments from the former Starbucks CEO and Eric Schmidt, former CEO of Google. We unpack the implications of their contrasting views—one advocating for switching off after 6 pm and the other emphasizing the necessity of intense work for startups. In another compelling chapter, we navigate the enduring importance of in-person collaboration amid a wave of corporate returns to the office. Using case studies from Dell, Apple's campus designs by Steve Jobs, and Bell Labs, we highlight how spontaneous interactions and mentorship in physical workspaces can drive innovation and career growth. We also tackle the generational divide as younger employees lean towards remote work, potentially missing out on invaluable mentorship. Finally, we close with a balanced look at performance culture versus comfort culture, sharing personal experiences from our consulting careers to advocate for a hybrid work model that combines the best of both worlds.--Get weekly leadership tips delivered to your email inbox:Subscribe to our leadership email newsletterhttps://www.leadin30.com/newsletterConnect with me on LinkedIn or to send me a DM:https://www.linkedin.com/in/russleads/Tap here to check out my first book, Decide to Lead, on Amazon.

Talent and career development in startups is typically nonexistent - so at super{set}, we're changing that. While a startup's opportunities for rapid growth and trial by fire are incredible, we believe startup employees can still benefit from intentional mentorship and development. No - it's not about bringing in professional coaches who lack hands-on company-building expertise. And no, it's more than advice from the balcony unmarried to what life is actually like in the startup trenches.Joining Tom and Vivek in the studio are the first graduates of super{set}'s coaching program for its employees: Jen D'Amico (Head of Business Development at Ketch), Anupam Gupta (Head of Customer Success at Ketch), and Ted Flanagan (Chief Customer Officer at Habu, recently Acquired by LiveRamp). How can startups improve outcomes by becoming more self-aware and assessing strengths and development areas better? How can entrepreneurs create the soil conditions for their employees to perform, even within the fast-paced startup environment? What advice do Jen, Anupam, and Ted have for startup employees - and the founders at the helm - around the globe? Join us in the first episode of Season 5 of The {Closed} Session!Listen (or watch) all episodes of The {Closed} Session at www.theclosedsession.comLearn more about Ketch at www.ketch.comLearn more about Habu (acquired by LiveRamp) at www.habu.comLearn more about super{set} - including co-founding with us and open roles across our portfolio of companies - at www.superset.com

In this episode of the Stronger Sales Teams podcast, Ben Wright discusses how to build a high-performance culture based on trust. He shares three key strategies for creating a culture of trust within a sales team: involving the team in the planning process, defining clear rules of engagement, and executing the plan with consistency. By implementing these strategies, leaders can foster trust, engagement, and accountability within their teams. Key Takeaways: Teams should be involved in the planning process to increase engagement and accountability. Clear rules of engagement should be established to define how the team works together. Consistency in executing the plan and holding team members accountable is crucial for building trust and achieving high performance.

Have you ever struggled with comparison, performance, relationships, or the desire to be someone else? Have you ever felt lonely and misunderstood? I sure have. Which is why I am so happy to be joined by my dear friend Nicole Jacobsmeyer today. Nicole and I have had countless conversations this past year as we have sought to deepen our experience and understanding of humility, comparison, suffering, pain, faith, perseverance in Christ, self-awareness, discipline, and the spirit of performance. So, today we are here to invite you into the dance of surrender to discover the attractiveness of true worship. In this episode, Nicole and I embark on a beautiful journey of self-reflection, vulnerability, and biblical insight that aims to leave you inspired and encouraged, and reminds you that you are not alone. We explore the intricate dance between our actions and our motives. Nicole and I dive into the question of why we engage in all our various activities. Are we doing them to show off or to offer praise? We reflect on the concept of sacrificial worship and its presence in our everyday actions. The journey of faith is not always easy, and we all face seasons of doubt and questioning. Nicole shares her personal experience of pain, evil, and suffering, and the impact it had on her view of God. We discuss how she embarked on a journey to understand God's character through the lens of her own suffering. Through it all, she discovered the privilege of suffering with and for Christ. But our conversation doesn't stop there. We go further, exploring the impact of social media and the role it plays in our lives. Nicole shares how she had to set boundaries with social media, questioning whether it is truly necessary to be a part of it. We delve into the motives behind our posts and the need for authenticity. Are our online lives aligned with our offline selves? Do our loved ones and colleagues affirm the person we present online? This candid discussion between two friends, who have journeyed together on various topics over the past year, serves as a heartfelt invitation to all those struggling with comparison, performance, and the desire to be someone else. Join us as we challenge the prevailing narratives of comparison, performance, and the prosperity gospel. We uncover the truth that genuine kindness, love, and grace come from Jesus and our identity in Him, not from our achievements or striving. We discuss the importance of a personal relationship with Christ rather than being driven by materialistic prizes or external measures of success. Throughout our conversation, one message shines through - our purpose as Christians is not in what we do, but in the Person we serve, who is the Lord. We explore surrendering to God and the beauty of walking humbly and serving others. So, if you've ever struggled with comparison, performance, relationships, or the desire to be someone else, this episode is for you. Join us as we dive deep into these topics and seek to uncover the true flavors of the gospel in our lives. Let's dive together into this insightful and thought-provoking conversation with Nicole Jacobsmeyer, right here on Gospel Spice. May you be encouraged, inspired, and filled with the joy of knowing that God is always by your side, carrying you through the highs and lows of life's dance. MORE ABOUT NICOLE Meet her here: https://www.nicolejacobsmeyer.com/ "Hi! I'm Nicole and I am so happy we found each other. A little bit about me… Besides my relationship with Christ, the most important people in my life are: my husband Andrew, and our 4 kiddos! I love people, comfy clothes, chocolate chips cookies, being a mom, watching my kids play sports, writing and speaking, and a good cup of tea. Since becoming a mom almost 9 years ago, my life mantra has been: Embrace the Chaos! With a husband in the medical field, four little kids, and lots of moves over the years, I needed an outlet to write. The Embracing Chaos blog was started in 2016 and four years later, I launched nicolejacobsmeyer.com as my author hub! When it comes to ministry outside of the home, I have a passion for helping and equipping women to stand firm, walk faithfully, and live full of joy regardless of our circumstances. I know how difficult it is to do that, but you are not alone in your pain. Praise the Lord He is walking with us in every season. In other HUGE news, my first book came out October 2022 and the companion workbook, Discover Purpose in Pain, came out March 2023! I am overjoyed that these continue to reach those who are dealing with pain, trauma, heartbreak and suffering. I'm right there with you friend. Let's allow the Lord to restore our joy this year!

Episode #239 // The proverbial high performing team has become a leadership cliché, and I can't count the number of leaders who claim to have built a high performing team (often, despite objective evidence to the contrary).But what if the culture you're leading in is actually a low performance culture? We get lots of questions from leaders about the difficulties they have applying basic performance management principles and, more often than not, the root cause is a pervasive, low performance culture.It can be particularly difficult to swim against the tide in these types of organizations and, as a leader, you have to decide what type of team you want, what type of results you want, and what you want your leadership brand to ultimately stand for.In today's episode, I give you a process that will help you to assess your culture for signs of endemic low performance… I explain why it can be so hard to improve low performance cultures… and I give you some tips for where to start if you decide to take on the challenge of leading in a low performance culture.————————You can connect with me at:Website: https://www.yourceomentor.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/yourceomentor Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/yourceomentorLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/yourceomentorYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@YourCEOMentor ————————Our mission here at Your CEO Mentor is to improve the quality of leaders, globally.

Only just in its second season, the show has already tackled topics like tragedy, truth, purpose, and fear.As a Liberty University graduate, Caden has studied the Bible deeply. But as this conversation on Trevor Talks quickly reveals, Caden has more than just head knowledge: he has a heart-deep relationship with Jesus that has taught him to accept true peace and rest.If you've ever been taught that performance = success, this is the episode for you. You'll hear how Caden redefined his own mental health goals from chasing an absence of anxiety to inviting the presence of Jesus instead.

Scripts of Blackness: Early Modern Performance Culture and the Making of Race (U Pennsylvania Press, 2022) shows how the early modern mass media of theatre and performance culture at-large helped turn blackness into a racial category, that is, into a type of difference justifying emerging social hierarchies and power relations in a new world order driven by colonialism and capitalism. In this book, Noémie Ndiaye explores the techniques of impersonation used by white performers to represent Afro-diasporic people in England, France, and Spain in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, using a comparative and transnational framework. She reconstructs three specific performance techniques--black-up (cosmetic blackness), blackspeak (acoustic blackness), and black dances (kinetic blackness)--in order to map out the poetics of those techniques, and track a number of metaphorical strains that early modern playtexts regularly associated with them. Those metaphorical strains, the titular scripts of blackness of this book, operated across national borders and constituted resources, as they provided spectators and participants with new ways of thinking about the Afro-diasporic people who lived or could/would ultimately live in their midst. Those scripts were often gendered and hinged on notions of demonization, exclusion, exploitation, animalization, commodification, sexualization, consensual enslavement, misogynoir, infantilization, and evocative association with other racialized minorities. Scripts of Blackness attempts to grasp the stories that Western Europeans told themselves through performative blackness, and the effects of those fictions on early modern Afro-diasporic subjects. Daniela Gutiérrez Flores is a Visiting Assistant Professor of Spanish Literature and Cultureat the Univeristy of California, Davis. She is interested in Food Studies, early modern history and literature, Latin American studies, and the history of material culture. Learn more about your ad choices.

Listen to the episode intro and you'll see I decided to try some AI content tools out.  The tool I mention in the show that is specifically for show notes is down today, so I decided to use ChatGPT for these show notes.  Unfortunately ChatGPT only knows what I tell it about the episode ... which means I basically have to write a description of the episode in order to get it to write a description of the episode ... but here's what it came up with when I asked for a "catchy title and episode description." Title: "Unleashing the Power of Effective Content Teams with Christoph Trappe" Description: In this episode of Grounded Content, we sit down with Christoph Trappe, Director of Content Strategy at Voxpopme and author of "Content Performance Culture."

We're thrilled to welcome to the show PwC consultant Matt Mani to discuss his book, Beyond Digital. Leaders in the digital have a challenge in transforming their organizations to keep up with the rapid pace of change. Matt and his co-author Paul Leinwand spent four years studying organizations that have successfully navigated their #digitaltransformation and the book is a summary of seven key leadership imperatives they discovered in their research. Af challenges Matt to discuss why his book is NOT 'just another book on #digital and through the discussion we learn the seven leadership imperatives and why they're important in showing leaders how to achieve a successful transformation. Some of the points we hit on in this discussion: • Why #worklifebalance is the wrong approach • “Digital transformation” has very little to do with digital and more to do with value transformation • The role of cultural differences and #diversity • The critical importance of the #digitalecosystem and becoming outcome-focused Mahadeva Matt Mani is an advisor to executives on business model transformation and operating performance improvement for Strategy&, PwC's strategy consulting business.

In this episode, I want to convince you that the only culture you want in your business is a culture of performance. I've had countless entrepreneurs tell me things like, “Alex, I know we're not making the money we want right now, and maybe the business isn't profitable, but we have such a great culture!" Statements like this make me cringe. With a great culture, projects are successful, things get done on time, and the business makes money and grows. If these things aren't happening, you may love your team, but you don't have a performance culture, and a performance culture is what makes companies great. Simpleoperations.com
