What's the real reason you're a writer? We've talked about finding your why before on the podcast, and today we're delving deeper. Inspired by Simon Sinek's book Start With Why, and Find Your Why, Trudi has us "on the couch" again, which Wendy, in particular, absolutely loves (not)!

With me is Sara Potecha who is a leadership consultant, executive coach and speaker.  Sara was not only in one of the first groups of women that were admitted to the United States Military Academy at West Point, she also graduated after four tough and life-changing years. Sara shares the leadership characteristics she learned and explains how they are relatable to life and leadership outside the military in her book, West Point Woman.  I'll be asking Sara to share some of these life lessons with us along with several stories of how she succeeded at such an historic institution that was less than welcoming to the women it was forced to let into its hallowed halls. Show Notes:  Sara enjoyed the following books:  Atomic Habits by James Clear; she enjoys books by Steven Covey, Malcolm Gladwell (including David and Goliath), and books by Simon Sinek including Leaders Eat Last.  Sara enjoys listening to leadership podcasts by Carey Nieuwhof, John Maxwell & Simon Sinek.

In the influential book “Leaders Eat Last,” author Simon Sinek opines, “We are not victims of our situation. We are the architects of it.” Larger-than-life volatility has become a hallmark of our current “normal,” and it's created challenges for leaders of business and nonprofits. As someone with a unique perspective into both realms, we knew we had to sit down with our CEO and president, Trent Ricker, to get his take on the challenges and opportunities facing our industry as we enter 2022. Ultimately, we have a say in what the future of fundraising looks like, no matter how uncertain the future may seem.

Bill Sullivan (@wjsullivan) is a professor of pharmacology and microbiology at the Indiana University School of Medicine in Indianapolis, an award-winning researcher, teacher, science communicator, and author of Pleased to Meet Me: Genes, Germs, and the Curious Forces That Make Us Who We Are. What We Discuss with Bill Sullivan: What we're just now learning in the field of epigenetics -- the study of how your behaviors and environment can cause changes that affect the way your genes work. Why twins who are genetically identical look less alike as they age -- or if they've been raised apart from one another. How the overabundance of plastics and other endocrine disruptors in our environment are affecting not only our bodies on a molecular level, but the physical and mental development of generations down the line. How kids -- even the unborn -- are epigenetically altered by the social and economic status of their parents. What we're learning about the role of the teeming millions of microorganisms that live inside of us -- collectively known as the microbiome -- on our overall mental and physical health.

David Mead realized business school was contributing to the poor leadership styles he's endured throughout much of his early career. After partnering with Simon Sinek and co-authoring, Find Your Why, David has presented his ideas on how to help people be inspired to go to work and feel safe while doing it, to over 150 organizations across five continents. David shares his thoughts on the great resignation, the three traits of a leader worth following, and the tools leaders need to build better company culture.   Key Takeaways [4:40] Leadership hasn't really changed in thousands of years. [5:30] David defines the difference between management and leadership. [6:55] The key is to tap into people and discover the personality quirks that they keep buried. Good leaders help people “drop their act” and be themselves. [7:50] David explores the right balance between being transparent and open and being too casual and buddy-buddy with everyone. Ultimately, leaders have a standard to set. [10:10] The pandemic has made a lot of people question their different personas and the roles they play at work and in life. [13:00] David shares how the pandemic changed his motivations and also shares some of his biggest takeaways of what he learned about himself. [16:00] Accountability really works best when there's trust. [18:50] David is against firing people based on their performance alone. He expands on why. [22:45] David recently did a poll on LinkedIn asking people what their organization was doing to retain talent. Listen for what surprised him. [27:25] David breaks down the types of tools that are available to leaders who are looking to improve company culture. [31:00] There are three main traits in a leader that people will follow through and through, no matter what company he or she is leading at the time. They are honest, humble, and human. [34:15] Good leaders have empathy. They can relate to someone in a way that doesn't trigger their fight-or-flight response. [39:05] People put up walls when they feel like their reputation, status, or their “core” selves are threatened. [40:10] Listener challenge: We all have influence with people. Whether we want to be or not, we have the potential to be a leader.   Quotable Quotes “If you're not willing to be human and you're not willing to open yourself, you're going to struggle.” “High-performers often get promoted, no matter if they have a toxic effect on the culture.” “We undervalue effort. If someone is giving the best they have, it might be they're not in a role that's best suited to them.” “We look at the problem we think we have and we often see the symptoms to the problem, so we throw solutions at the symptoms.”   Resources Mentioned Sponsored by: Darley.com Davidjmead.com David on LinkedIn Find Your Why: A Practical Guide for Discovering Purpose for You and Your Team, by Simon Sinek, David Mead, and Peter Docker

Contact Katie Thomas: https://www.linkedin.com/in/katiethomascpa/ Leaders Online: www.leaders-online.com4 C Process: www.leaders-online.com/4cprocessFULL EPISODE TRANSCRIPTAdam: (00:04)Welcome back to Count Me In, IMA's podcast about all things affecting the accounting and finance world. This is your host Adam Larson, and I'm here to preview episode 160 of our series. Katie Thomas, owner of Leaders Online, rejoins Count Me In today to talk about finding, connecting, and developing relationships with key stakeholders. Katie does a lot of marketing and social media for executives and helps them increase their presence in the industry. In her conversation with Mitch, she talks about the power of technology and social media as it pertains to increasing influence and nurturing lasting relationships. Keep listening as we head over to the main part of the episode now.Mitch: (00:51)So Katie, the first time we spoke, you talked about how technology really changed the landscape of the accounting industry. We talked about analytics, growing your business, becoming more profitable, things along those lines. But I understand a lot has changed since we spoke and that was, you know, February of 2020. So what I wanna kind of get into and, and start off is if you can kind of explain, you know, what you've seen over the last year and a half, and what else has changed across the accounting industry?Katie: (01:20)Yeah, so man, since February of 2020, I feel like technology has had to be embraced more than ever. I mean, there were a lot of firms using technology, but then there were a lot not, and I think it was this thing where the firms who weren't fully embracing technology, they knew about it, but it was kind of scary be because what you've done before, and if it was working, it's like why fix what's not broken, but then the pandemic hit and there was something that was broken. You could no longer have face-to-face meetings. You could no longer operate as you did before. And so it really forced the accounting firms and their clients into digital relationships, even if they were traditionally local relationships, like come in, meet face-to-face, it was, Hey, we've gotta find different ways to communicate with our clients. A lot of people jumped on Zoom and then managing the staff and the firm members that also had to change. So if you didn't previously use project management tool or document sharing, all of that had to be quickly learned and leveraged and utilized. So I think that the outcome of all of this is really cool because firms had to become confident in using this and they realize that they don't necessarily need as big of an office or they don't need to meet in person as much. And they can still maintain those relationships, whether it's with clients or with staff. I know a lot of firms I work with. They're like, okay, we miss getting together in person and we're still gonna do that. But you know, maybe it's, you don't have to be in the office eight to five every single day. There's some flexibility.Mitch: (03:02)Yeah. I think that's a great point. And you know, our focus for today's conversation really is on these relationships, right? Whether it's clients or key stakeholders inside or outside of the business, we'll get into, you know, how we connect with them and such, but to kind of connect the dots where we were and where we are. Can you first talk a little bit about maybe some of the things that technology can influence when it comes to stakeholder relationships and where we're going with our conversation today?Katie: (03:29)Yeah. So people really connect in two ways. There's gonna be emotional connections. So like that's just gonna be like conversations and how you feel out someone. maybe you have similar views, goals, thoughts, and people really connect this way through talking and through stories. So there is some technology that can help with this, even like Zoom or Loom or apps that just connect us. But really I see technology on the other side of how we connect the logical way that we connect and with technology, you can really see into the data and create a story through this to then help you connect and talk about why you're doing certain things, the outcome of why of what's happening. The data really gives us the facts and the technology and able to us to access the data to then create stories around this data. So technology is a key piece in communicating, but I really see it supporting a lot of that logical side of how humans can connect.Mitch: (04:28)That's really well said. And we did briefly talk about analytics last time and you know, the data and everything you just mentioned. It's, it's a great point. So to take it a step further, you mentioned Zoom and some other, you know, apps, as far as technology goes, whether they're specific tools or more broadly social media, just in general, what kind of resources can our listeners use to better find, connect and develop relationships with key stakeholders? You know, what can they go out and access in order to improve these relationships for the long term?Katie: (05:01)Yeah, so I definitely think Zoom's a really popular one. Another one I mentioned was Loom. So that's like a screen recording tool, which is super helpful if you're trying to explain something and you're not, maybe you're gonna deliver this through an email. You can walk someone through like financials or maybe a process or a report. And you can actually show yourself talking about it as well as share your screen. I think this one's great client portals are great tools. So client portals can be used to share documents, securely, communicate through them. I think that's a great one. and then social media platforms are also awesome because you can create content for a wide variety of people. You can have conversations in the direct message. You know, there's a lot of platforms out there. Maybe it's even like your project management tool where you're communicating, but really it's just identifying maybe where there's a gap in communication. And since there is a tool for about everything, if you Google that, you'll probably find someone that's found a solution or created a solution that you can utilize.Mitch: (06:02)Yeah. Google is a, it's a great tool in itself and very, you know, very helpful on a daily basis. But as I said earlier, you know, there's obviously a lot more to our conversation than technology. There's a lot more to the profession than just technology. So I do wanna take this a step further and really make sure we cover, you know, our listener side of things, the management accounting side, a little bit more of the accounting finance profession. As far as connecting with individuals, I know something that you really focus on with the marketing side of your business is enabling individuals to increase their influence. So I'd like to hear your thought on, you know, whether it's tools or strategies, what can individuals do to increase their influence and really make a greater impact on the business.Katie: (06:47)So I think one of the number one things that individuals can do to create a greater influence on the organization and individuals as a whole it's to really align their why with the company's why and why this is so important is if you can come to work every single day and you can see like your why, which if you haven't read Simon Sinek's book all about find your why I highly recommend it to everyone, but based it's your personal why is different from someone else's. And if you can figure out what yours is and how it can fit into an organization, then you can come to work every single day with a purpose and a driving force. And whenever you do that, then you can take that and you can be passionate about what you do and you can help others do the same, because if you can help others through you being passionate about it, find meaning in their work, because otherwise it's just a job, right? If you can help others do that, then they're gonna be committed to the ultimate goal of the organization. They're gonna be excited about what they do. They're gonna feel positive and enthusiastic, even when times get tough because they they're connected to something greater. I think that's so important. So as leaders, whether you're the owner of a company or you just started a company, you can still be a leader and you can still create influence, but it starts with leading by example and being passionate and connected to what you do and why you do it.Mitch: (08:20)Yeah. I think if there's something that the last 18 plus months have taught, a lot of people it's, you know, really gotta take care of yourself first and foremost and, and understanding your why you're passionate in making sure that everything you're doing is, you know, keeping you physically mentally healthy along the way. Otherwise the job just takes away from that. I think that's a big part of it. So, I certainly know where you're coming from here. And, you know, I know I mentioned the marketing, the social media side of things, and you help executives really increase their presence within the industry. I'm just wondering if you have any strategies, you know, anything that our listeners can take away from this conversation where even if they're just contributors to a team or something like that, they can really stand out. You know, what is it about understanding your passion and your why that enables anybody to stand out in the organization and make a difference?Katie: (09:11)Yeah. So this is a process that anyone can apply. And if someone is listening to this and wants to know more about it, I have a whole guide that they can download. That'll go into more depth, but it's called the 4C process. And if you go to leaders/online.com/4C, anyone can get that guide. but basically it's built around, you guessed it, the 4 C's. And, we can talk a little bit about those now, but basically you need to choose a platform to be on. And when you're trying to choose a platform to be on, when it comes to social media, think about where do your stakeholders hang out, or maybe this is where do your ideal staff hang out, whatever your goal is, think about where those people are hanging out and then about what platform plays to your strengths. So, for example, if you're someone who you don't like creating videos, then maybe don't use YouTube. Even if your stakeholders are on there or your ideal clients, or your ideal staff, like pick a platform where you can create content that you feel comfortable. So you've gotta choose a platform and just pick one. And then, you've gotta figure out how to connect with the people that you really want to connect with. So LinkedIn's really popular for professionals and people in our industry because it's a professional platform. And so with LinkedIn, you can go find people by searching by their name, their title, their location, their experience, and you know how you find these people and you connect with them. It's gonna be a little different for each platform. So Facebook, it might be, you find them in groups, Instagram, you may find them by hashtags, but you've gotta find them. You've gotta connect with them. and then the third thing you've got to do, so you've chosen your platform. You've connected with them. Then you've gotta talk to them because if you went to a brand new cocktail party, and this is a new group, and you didn't say anything, you just stood in the corner, what would happen? Probably nothing. So you've actually go out to go out and talk to these people, whether you know them, or you've never met them, start a conversation with them, ask them what they're seeing in the industry. Ask. them what they're working on. What they're excited about. Just ask them a question is whenever you ask a question, you open up the doors for a conversation and the fourth step in this is gonna be to create. So we picked our platform. We chose our platform. We connected with our ideal people that we're looking to build relationships with. We conversed with them, and they'll finally, we're gonna create and create is something that a lot of people, people can get hung up on. And it's something that should come last. So if you aren't actively going out and building your community and having conversations with these people, if you create content, then not as many people are gonna see it. So content's like the gas to your fire. It comes last. And when you create a lot of people, be like, I'm not creative, everyone's creative because everyone has a story they can share. Everyone gets emails with questions on a regular basis. Everyone's doing work. You can talk about what you're doing, what's going on in your company. What's going on in the industry, maybe how you got into the position you're at today. Maybe some of the challenges you're facing, there's so much content that can be created. And that's something that is so fun to work with professionals on to help them share their story, share. What's exciting them, what they're changing, maybe in the industry. This is where we love to help out. But, it definitely only comes last in a lot of people. They can try to do it first and then they don't see the results they're looking for.Mitch: (12:40)So I'm actually gonna rewind for a second, because as you're explaining all of this, you know, your passion for what you're doing it's very noticeable. And I can tell that, you know, you enjoy what you do. So I kind of wanna go back to the, the beginning of our conversation here and kind of ask you, you know, what's your, why, I know that you're, like I said, so passionate about this. So I'm just curious, you know, why is that? What have you been able to figure out when it comes to helping others increase their influence and increase their, their presence? What do you enjoy most about doing this?Katie: (13:12)My why is to help people be more confident in what they can do so that they can create a bigger impact. And that just excites me because I think as a profession, we do so much great work and we create a lot of changes, whether it's like helping a business succeed, that's external to us. Maybe it's our internal company, maybe it's teaching staff, like we do a lot. And a lot of us aren't confident in what we do. We aren't confident to talk about it or to share our knowledge. we like to just kind of do the work and we do it well, and we don't talk about it. So we aren't creating as big of impact as we could. We aren't having the influence that we could. and a lot of us aren't making the money that we deserve. And so my why is helping people become confident about it. And it's so cool to see that transformation that someone can have when we work with them.Mitch: (14:10)That that's awesome and I'm sure many of your clients greatly appreciate that. Like I said, it definitely comes across, even in this conversation here, but to wrap things up, you know, like I said, we spoke a year and a half ago, and you could argue that a lot has changed, but you could also say that nothing has really changed because as we said in the beginning, technology continues to evolve. Analytics is so important. Relationship buildings, you know, upscaling, rescaling everything across the profession. When we started, you know, before we started recording here, you mentioned your business has changed a little bit since we last spoke as well. So things continue to evolve is my point. And I'm just curious to get your thoughts. We wrapped up the conversation the same way the last time. How do you envision the accounting profession moving along into the future? You know, what else do you see coming up? Whether it's because of the result of the pandemic or just technology impacting the profession, how do you see things progressing for all of our listeners coming up?Katie: (15:11)There's a lot of ways that this question could be answered. It's definitely the accountants are moving into more advisory roles. As technology becomes more advanced and can do some of those lower level tasks. I think it's a lot more smaller firms are now coming into play because technology makes it easy to start up your own firm. And then it's this whole idea of digital relationships. someone doesn't need to be located in your same city or your same state to work with you, whether that's a client or a staff member, whether or not these tools and resources were available to people pre pandemic that doesn't really change anything other than the fact that now more and more people are seeing the opportunity and maybe even had the time to say, okay, during the pandemic, they got to reimagine what's possible for their self and their business or their current role. So they are changing. And I think that it's ultimately more opportunity for everyone.Closing: (16:19)This has been Count Me In, IMA's podcast providing you with the latest perspectives of thought leaders from the accounting and finance profession.

The result has seen the team successfully deliver several large-scale major events in the Territory that have attracted national and international attention, and record attendance numbers.Quotes from Episode:"If you haven't been to the Territory, you'll never experience what we have to offer... Everything from chasing the elusive barramundi all the way to the river systems in the Top End . Kakadu National Park has to be seen to be believed.""We've got a very starved industry that wants to get back in and get in big. I'll be quite honest, there are some challenges for us coming into next year. We hope we've proven what the territory can offer." "The two lessons I've learned as a CEO  or leader is, one, people are your most important asset...

In this "Inspiring TED Talks Rewind" HCI Podcast episode, Dr. Jonathan H. Westover (https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonathanhwestover/) explores Simon Sinek's famous 2014 TED Talk, " Why Good Leaders Make You Feel Safe?" (Originally aired October 17, 2020). See the video and details here: https://www.ted.com/talks/simon_sinek_why_good_leaders_make_you_feel_safe. TED Talk Overview: "What makes a great leader? Management theorist Simon Sinek suggests, it's someone who makes their employees feel secure, who draws staffers into a circle of trust. But creating trust and safety — especially in an uneven economy — means taking on big responsibility." Simon Sinek (https://www.linkedin.com/in/simonsinek/) is an unshakable optimist. He believes in a bright future and our ability to build it together. Described as “a visionary thinker with a rare intellect,” Simon has devoted his professional life to help advance a vision of the world that does not yet exist; a world in which the vast majority of people wake up every single morning inspired, feel safe wherever they are and end the day fulfilled by the work that they do. Simon is the author of multiple best selling books including Start With Why, Leaders Eat Last, Together is Better, and The Infinite Game. See more at https://simonsinek.com/about/simon-sinek.

Stephen Shedletzky, Speaker, Executive Coach & Advisor, joins Bold Founder, Caleb Parker, for our Season 6 debut to discuss why leadership is so important in unprecedented times, and why infinite mindsets are what's needed in commercial real estate to support office customers as we navigate the new ways of working. They talk through why values, beliefs and behaviour should be placed at the centre of the universe, and how leadership will make all the difference to organisations embracing the Future of Work.  Stephen shares his insights on the changes in work culture and how these are impacted by flexible working, and shares interesting research on the motivators that influence employee engagement and performance.  PLUS tune in for a surprise "behind the scenes" chat at the end of this podcast...

Well, Stephen says we should be putting values at the centre of the universe in commercial real estate. - Caleb Parker I think that we often position doing right by people, and doing right by your bottom line as opposing forces. And they are not. - Stephen Shedletzky Organisations exist to serve their end user. Leaders exist to serve their people. When leaders serve their people, people serve each other. - Stephen Shedletzky I think the responsibility of businesses to advance a purpose, to protect people and to generate profit in that order. - Stephen Shedletzky My favourite equation for culture is culture = values x behavior. - Stephen Shedletzky  Integrity is doing what's right, even if it's hard, even if no one's looking. - Stephen Shedletzky Company culture is a bigger threat to commercial real estate and the office then COVID-19 has been, because returning to the office sucks if your company culture sucks. - Caleb Parker The pandemic has pulled the covers off of these bad company cultures that exist in our buildings. - Caleb Parker The very utterance of return to work is offensive. And leaders need to know that their language matters and they ought to strike that from their vernacular. - Stephen Shedletzky  If you give people a higher ceiling and you leave with more trust, you'll let people surprise you for the better. - Stephen Shedletzky Work-life balance is about loving who we are at work and loving who we are at home. - Stephen Shedletzky Our relationship with our boss is more of an impact on our health than that of our relationship with our family doctor. - Stephen Shedletzky Play is the most powerful motivator, two times more powerful than purpose, which is mind blowing for a guy who spent the last 13 years dedicated to purpose. - Stephen Shedletzky I believe that the leaders who are leaning into this flexible working, and have flexible mindsets are assets for their organisations... When the competition is embracing hybrid working, do you think that the leaders who aren't become a liability to their shareholders? - Caleb Parker If leaders themselves aren't doing well, how can you expect their people to do well? - Stephen Shedletzky As leaders, you need to help your people get out of their own way. - Stephen Shedletzky I define a humble leader is someone who knows that there are at least a part of problems they experience and a part of the solutions. - Stephen Shedletzky Resources: LinkedIn Live – The Future of Work with Stephen and Caleb Adam Grants Work Life Podcast Brene Brown Podcasts Checking In with Susan David Podcast Malcolm Gladwell Revisionist History Podcast EvolveOrDie.co Shout Outs: Dave Cairns Liane Davey Michael Kalles Keywords: leadership, teams, culture, values, motivation, return to the office, work, purpose, play About Stephen Shedletzky: Follow Stephen on Twitter and Instagram Every day Stephen wakes up to engage with people in meaningful ways, so that we connect with depth and live in a more fulfilled world. He supports humble leaders – those who know they are both a part of the problems they experience and a part of the solutions they can create – who intend to put their people and purpose first.  Feeling stifled on his own corporate track, Shedletzky was introduced to Simon Sinek's work and was immediately inspired by it. He met Simon in 2010 and became the fourth person to join his team. He began answering fan email and became the first person outside of Simon to lead his social media efforts. He moved on to hold the roles of Chief of Staff, and Head of Brand Experience, Training & Development. Leading a global team of speakers and facilitators at Simon Sinek, Inc., Stephen worked to ensure the team's culture, products and communications authentically reflected the organization's most deeply held values and beliefs. He also had the opportunity to narrate the audiobook for Simon Sinek's book, Find Your Why: A Practical Guide for Discovering Purpose for You and Your Team.  Stephen has led hundreds of keynote presentations, workshops and leadership development programs. Though Stephen still works to share Simon's message, helping to create a more inspired, safe and fulfilled world, he also works to advance his own thought leadership on leadership, culture and psychological safety through keynotes, writing, coaching and advising.  Stephen has worked with leaders and organizations around the world and serves clients in any industry where human beings work. Stephen graduated from the Richard Ivey School of Business with a focus in leadership, communication and strategy and received his coaching certification from The Coaches Training Institute.  Stephen lives in Toronto with his wife and two young children.

When looking for ways to finance his dental degree, Dan Hammer came across the Health Professional Scholarship offered by the Navy. His receipt of this scholarship formulated the trajectory of his career as an oral surgeon. Dan's journey has involved treating war warriors as a GPR, completing a head and neck fellowship, and helping to develop the digital adaptation of the “jaw in a day” surgery. Following in the footsteps of many OMS pioneers, he has done all of this with a single degree, and he explains why he does not believe he is not disadvantaged by this fact. Although there are some tradeoffs to working in the military, there are also numerous benefits, and Dan openly discusses the pros and cons of his chosen career path in today's episode. Dan also offers some valuable advice around getting as much exposure as possible to your fields of interest (no matter how trivial an activity may seem), listening to the opinions of other professionals (even if you don't agree with them), and a key to optimal parenting! Key Points From This Episode:Why Dan joined the Navy.Dan's experience as a GPR in Bethesda, Maryland in 2011. What inspired Dan to do a head and neck fellowship. Where Dan is currently working. Some of the pioneers in the OMS field who had a single degree. Legal and political elements of practicing surgery with a single degree.Benefits of working in the armed forces. Dan's first flap out of fellowship. The collaborative multidisciplinary environment that Dan works in. Compensation that Dan receives through working in the military. A tradeoff that you need to accept when you become an active-duty oral surgeon. The variety of procedures on which Dan spends his time. Dan explains the “jaw in a day” surgery in more detail, as well as the “digital jaw in a day” adaptation that he and his team came up with.The value that lies in listening, and getting as much exposure as you can in your fields of interest.The correlation between Dan's work and home life. Advice from Dan around raising children. Dan's favorite quote: Comparison is the thief of joy. Links Mentioned in Today's Episode:Dr. Dan Hammer on Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/drdanhammer/?hl=en Leaders Eat Last by Simon Sinek — https://simonsinek.com/product/leaders-eat-last-book/ Extreme Ownership by Jocko Willink — https://www.amazon.com/Extreme-Ownership-U-S-Navy-SEALs/dp/1250067057 Can't Hurt Me by David Goggins — https://www.amazon.com/Cant-Hurt-Me-Master-Your/dp/1544512287 Dr. Grant Stucki Email — grantstucki@gmail.comDr. Grant Stucki Phone — 720-441-6059

When making strategic decisions, who's supreme? Shareholders or employees? On today's podcast, Andy Alsop, CEO of The Receptionist, shares his enthusiasm for building a truly hybrid company where the focus and attention is on prioritizing employees over shareholders. What is Employee Supremacy?Shareholder supremacy, a term coined by Milton Friedman in the 70's and 80's, was basically about decision making. Under shareholder supremacy, leaders are responsible for increasing the value of shares to each one of the company's investors, and every decision is based around that mission.For example, under shareholder supremacy, if you're trying to determine how much to invest in  employee benefits (an expense that is seen as primarily negatively impacting  the bottom line) you naturally want to drive the cost of benefits down to the lowest possible amount. You would choose the bare minimum necessary to continue to attract employees so that you can increase profits and thus shareholder value.Alternatively, with an Employee Supremacy mindset, you want to increase the amount of benefits that your employees have. Doing this helps your employees feel secure, feel that thecompany trusts them, and gives them a sense of ease knowing that they aren't going to have to worry about whether they can make ends meet in the case of an emergency because those benefits are there for them.The result: your employees feel valued, safe and have greater trust in the  company they work for. And when employees feel trusted and trust the company, they make decisions that are in the best interest of the company, allowing them to better serve their customers.  Under the employee supremacy mindset, when leaders make decisions, they increase productivity with their company, give better service to their customers, and create trusting teams that help achieve their company's mission and goals. In the end both methods drive shareholder value but focusing on employee supremacy drives shareholder value more quickly.Decision Making Examples from an “Employee Supremacy” MindsetWhen COVID hit, Andy and his leadership team did three things:Implemented a COVID Family Travel Program--The company paid to send young, single workers to fly home to their families, Improved Health Benefits--They eliminated insurance premium contributions for employees, and increased the contribution towards families. Instituted the company's Just Cause--Focusing on the company's employees and its community, they have changed how the leaders make decisions.Because of these three decisions based on “Employee Supremacy,” they learned that making all of these decisions during a pandemic the team knew they were with a company that was focused, not on short-term results, but on the “long game.”  They created what Simon Sinek describes as “Trusting Teams.”The Role of Company Values and a Just Cause in Employee SupremacyAt The Receptionist, their values are an acronym called FABRIC (Fun, Authentic, Bold, Respectful, Innovative and Collaborative). Andy says the important part of core values is you actually have to live them. Could potential candidates who are seeking a position at your company actually see those values being lived out? During the pandemic their company chose to fall back on those values and really focused on making sure that these values became a part of daily-life working at their company. Read the full summary here
