And I had a policy of never, no matter what happened, laying off R&D people. I mean, if people weren't performing, they could leave. But we never had a layoff. And we never had a layoff among our sales people either. – Bill (06:08)  “As a CEO, you change your position on something, that's when the activists come after you, that's when the politicians come after you. So if you stand for something, Medtronic stands for helping patients. And so anyone wants to take Medtronic on, that's fine. We're going to stand forever to help patients. – Bill (28:18) In This Episode (03:28) Challenges of leading in today's business world and the need to stay true to mission and values (05:17) The trend of layoffs in companies and Bill's approach to it when leading at Medtronic (10:04) Underestimation of the Medtech field (11:12) The biggest challenge digital health leaders are facing today and how to overcome it.

What is happening to the psychological safety of people at work? Is it going up? Is it going down? What is the primary threat to it today, and is it the same as what we had 20 years ago? Well, to discuss this and other questions I've invited back Dr. Amy Edmondson. She's a celebrated Harvard professor, one of the best listeners that I have ever interviewed. She's present, she's real, and by the end of this episode, you are going to be more empowered to be able to create psychological safety in a world that sometimes seems to be attacking it.

Patrice Borders, a leading expert on diversity and inclusion in the workplace, joins us to share ways companies can create more inclusive environments and the importance of diversity in driving innovation and success. In this episode we discuss: - The power of emotional intelligence in the workplace. - How does self-awareness impact career success and business success? - The Seven Seeds of Emotional Intelligence model   For more information on this episode and to connect with Barbara Johnson or Belinda Reed Shannon, visit us at: https://www.todaysworkplacepodcast.com   The views expressed on today's program are those of the speakers and are not the views of Today's Workplace the speaker's firms or clients, and are not intended to provide legal advice.

Do you feel psychologically safer at work now than you did several years ago? It's an interesting question, and today I've invited perhaps the preeminent expert in the world on the subject of psychological safety to discuss that and other things with us. This is Dr. Amy Edmondson, a professor at Harvard, and the person most responsible for making the term psychological safety ubiquitous in the world after she published a paper more than 20 years ago focused on this subject. I knew it was going to be a good conversation because Amy is as capable as they come, and the subject is so timely. But even with that, the conversation went further and deeper, more real, more raw than I expected it would. By the end of this episode, you will have new insight as to what psychological safety actually is and what it isn't, and where the threats are coming from to that psychological safety in today's workplace.

Welcome to Episode 92 of The Future of Work, the podcast that looks at every aspect of work in the future, featuring industry experts and thought leaders discussing how work is changing and evolving. The Future of Work is NOW.For the next three episodes we are joined by Dr. Marie Gervais, a leadership coach, author and fellow podcaster who believes that a happy workplace is a productive and profitable one. And we aim to unpack that and see exactly what Marie means when she says we should think, speak and do sole enhancing rather than sole diminishing actions.In this first episode we get back to basics and explore the changes in cultural awareness in the workplace following the pandemic.

In this uncertain economic climate, there's no better time than now to take the pulse on employee sentiment. In this episode of Transform Your Workplace, Brandon Laws interviews Soni Basi, Global Chief People Officer of Edelman. The two discuss the recent findings of Edelman's “Trust Barometer” and how employers can foster greater trust and connection in the workplace.   TAKEAWAYS Edelman's “Trust Barometer” helps employers get a sense of their employees' sentiments on a variety of timely topics. After friends and family, the workplace is the most important source of community for employees. If employees can't see that HR is truly committed to functioning as a people-first organization, organizations will continue to struggle with gaining employee trust. People want to work for a company that espouses their own values. The only way to build trust is through repeated behaviors that people expect or want to see   A QUICK GLIMPSE INTO OUR PODCAST

Reddock-Wright, Esq., an Employment Mediator and the author of “The Workplace Transformed: 7 Crucial Lessons from the Global Pandemic.”    We discuss the issues, challenges, and controversies that inspired the rise in employee activism as well as the evolution of essential workers and non-essential workers in today's modern workplace.    Join us on this special episode of Today's Workplace as Angela J.

Welcome to an episode with Bill George, former chairman and CEO of Medtronic and currently a professor at Harvard Business School. He has written two of the most enduring leadership classics of all time: Authentic Leadership and True North. Now, Bill has written a new book aimed at the next generation of leaders, the Emerging Leaders Edition of True North, coauthored with millennial entrepreneur Zach Clayton. Get Bill's new book here. This book is a clarion call to emerging leaders to step up to lead their organizations with their hearts, not just their heads, as authentic leaders who lead with purpose by inspiring and coaching their teammates. It heralds the end of the baby boomer era of Jack Welch, when too many leaders focused on maximizing shareholder value and taking shortcuts rather than building sustainable enterprises to serve all of their stakeholders. Our best hope for a better world is to empower the next generation of emerging leaders – not just those on top – to follow their True North to make this world better for everyone. The stories in this book, which came from 220 interviews with exceptional leaders, illustrate that most authentic leaders first discovered their True North through their life stories and crucibles, developed self-awareness, and then found their North Star – the purpose of their leadership. Wisdom learned from leaders like Satya Nadella, Mary Barra, Ken Frazier, Indra Nooyi, Ursula Burns, and Hubert Joly will guide emerging leaders at all levels in their development. Bill joined Medtronic in 1989 as president and chief operating officer, was chief executive officer from 1991-2001, and board chair from 1996-2002. He is currently a senior fellow at Harvard Business School, where he has taught leadership since 2004. He is the author of Discover Your True North and The Discover Your True North Field Book, Authentic Leadership, Seven Lessons for Leading in Crisis, Finding Your True North, and True North Groups. He has served on the boards of Goldman Sachs, ExxonMobil, Novartis, Target, and Mayo Clinic.  He received his BSIE with high honors from Georgia Tech, his MBA with high distinction from Harvard University, where he was a Baker Scholar, and honorary PhDs from Georgia Tech, Mayo Medical School, University of St. Thomas, Augsburg College, and Bryant University.  True North: Leading Authentically in Today's Workplace, Emerging Leader Edition. Bill George & Zach Clayton.

In this episode of the Futurum Tech Webcast – Interview Series, I'm joined by Amanda Mountain, Global Vice President of eCommerce at SAP, for a fascinating and timely conversation on the topic of continuous learning. August marks the start of Back-to-School season. For students, it's an exciting time that kicks off another year of learning and growth. But we'd like to take the time to focus on the importance of continuous learning for businesses. Now is as good a time as ever to prioritize continued education. The future of work is going to take skills many people don't have – where can they learn them? In fact, a World Economic Forum Future of Jobs Report found that “50% of employees will need reskilling by 2025 to keep pace with emerging technologies.” Addressing the prevalence of disengaged employees as well as the skills shortage organizations are facing today is an imperative across industries, from retail to the public sector. So what can organizations do to address the current situation? That's just what Amanda and I are going to be discussing. Our conversation covered: The current state of the workforce, as we are seeing an unprecedented number of people leaving jobs in search of something more fulfilling. At the same time, employers are struggling to fill empty positions leaving a heavy burden on the remaining employees to cover positions they might not have been hired for. We explored data from SHRM that showed a whopping 47.8 million workers quit their jobs, an average of nearly 4 million a month. We also explored research from Pew Research Center on the top reasons U.S. workers left a job in 2021, in which low pay and no advancement opportunities and feeling disrespected at work topped the list. We explored why people leave jobs and the important role that creating a culture of continuous learning plays in both talent acquisition and talent retention. We discussed today's workplace landscape and how it is unlike anything we've encountered before. As a result of the monumental shifts the pandemic has ushered in, companies are combatting both talent retention challenges and an ever-growing IT skills gap. It has become increasingly apparent that education and training must evolve with the landscape. Today's learners want – and need — different solutions than L&D leaders have relied on in the past. Amanda shared some of the SAP offerings on that front as well as some insights on how learning behaviors and desires have changed, and what technology solutions are doing to address those changes. Amanda shared how SAP is responding to the need with solutions like the Go1 Learning solution, which provides SAP SuccessFactors customers access to the largest marketplace of off-the-shelf content ready to use via the Open Content Network and SAP Enable Now, which is a comprehensive digital adoption tool that delivers time-of-need learning to help people develop the skills they need to do their job effectively.

This episode is co-produced with the Austin Technology Council. ATC is a 30 year old association focused on promoting and facilitating growth of technology companies in Central Texas. Over the past three decades the business ecosystem in Austin has changed, and ATC is actively changing, too.  Learn more at https://AustinTechnology Council.org. About Kurt Wilkin Kurt Wilkin is a trusted advisor for high-growth, middle-market companies as founder and managing partner of Bee Cave Capital and Co-Founder of HireBetter. With a passion for growth and a hard-earned, proven set of tools in his toolbox, Wilkin works with other entrepreneurs and CEOs to help them escape the start-up mindset and achieve next-level success.   His debut book, Who's Your Mike?, reveals how entrepreneurs can transform their companies by minimizing hiring mistakes, investing in high potentials and making the difficult decisions to drop dead weight from their team. Wilkin draws on his extensive experience launching and growing businesses to help leaders navigate people challenges and tap into the power of making better hires. By putting the right talent in the right places—and pinpointing who is holding the company back—entrepreneurs can unlock meaningful change that will enable their organization to grow, scale and thrive.   Over more than 20 years, Wilkin has built long-lasting partnerships and helped hundreds of business leaders achieve their goals. He began his career in accounting, serving at Ernst & Young before joining an online retailer and discovering his aptitude for entrepreneurship. Wilkin founded The Controller Group (TCG) in 2001 and successfully sold it to Tatum in 2006. During those five years he rapidly grew the firm's revenue, growing it into a $20 million company with more than 100 employees. During his time at TCG, he also co-founded Bee Cave Capital, a Texas-based early-stage venture group where he serves as managing partner.   Wilkin is an alumnus of the University of Arkansas, a graduate of Stagen Leadership Academy, a certified public accountant and an officer of Young Presidents' Organization. Passionate about entrepreneurship, he is an active angel investor and serves on the boards of more organizations than he'd care to count. He lives in Austin, Texas, with his wife and three sons. Visit www.kurtwilkin.com for more information. About "Who's Your Mike?" Book In Who's Your Mike?, Wilkin aims to help readers put into practice techniques he's spent decades fine-tuning. His no-BS guide isn't the traditional business book: every chapter guides the reader through a different people challenge, so readers can quickly identify how to solve troubling scenarios. In fact, he encourages readers not to read the whole thing. It's written a la “choose your own adventure,” so entrepreneurs can pick and choose the sections that will be most helpful to them. Who's Your Mike? tells the stories of both Wilkin's own experience building a community of growth-minded leaders and people pitfalls he's witnessed first-hand from other business leaders. In Who's Your Mike?, readers will learn: ● That there's no secret formula to hiring smart – we all make hiring mistakes ● If they've outgrown their current team, and what to do next ● How to handle the people they're sure to meet on their entrepreneurial journey Kurt has called Texas, Louisiana, and Arkansas home his entire life and proudly claims to have “Redneck, Cajun, and Hillbilly rolled into one beautiful package.” That might explain his natural BS detector. He is the father of three active boys who don't let him take life too seriously, and he resides in Austin with his wife, Carrie, who didn't think he could focus long enough to get the grocery list right, much less write an entire book! https://thomsinger.com/podcast/kurt-wilkin Learn more about your ad choices.

On this episode of the Unlearn Podcast, Barry O'Reilly chats with Brian Elliott, Senior Vice President at Slack and Executive Leader of the Future Forum, who also served as an Executive Product Leader at Google. Having observed Brian's work, Barry says, “I was constantly inspired by the work Brian and his team were doing in the Future Forum, researching challenges about the future of work.” Brian and his co-authors, Sheela Subramanian and Helen Kupp, have encapsulated the findings of the forum - as well as the lessons they learned through their own experiences - in their new book, How the Future Works. From Arrogance to Transparency Brian discusses how his perception of management evolved as his career developed. "I learned a phrase early in my profession that states ‘Seldom wrong, never in doubt'... a sort of arrogance," he recalls. He rejected his initial arrogance in the wake of Maria De Leon's advice and observation, and realized that the greatest way to foster camaraderie and a sense of common purpose is to be open about the company's future, aspirations, and financial path. “Transparency actually creates trust,” Barry comments, “...it helps people gain clarity of what is actually happening.” Being the one with all the answers is not conducive to a healthy workplace culture, both men agree.  The Future Forum Brian joined Slack five years ago and was immediately intrigued by the company's research team, which later became the driving force behind the Future Forum. The research-based consortium focuses on creating a better future of work that is flexible, inclusive and connected through quarterly employee experience surveys and executive working groups. Since the issues are multidisciplinary, they survey 10,000 knowledge workers from all around the world. Leaders from multiple sectors are encouraged to experiment with these solutions to champion global change. Debunking the Myths Brian debunks five major myths about the workplace, using research from his book, How the Future Works. These include:  Return-to-Office Mandates: Top-down policies for returning to the office are a one-size-fits-all approach that ignores that each team may have a different rhythm. Brainstorming: The whiteboard is an antiquated method of brainstorming based on groupthink. The true danger of this strategy is that it excludes under-represented groups: the person wielding the pen, usually a member of the dominant age group, culture or gender, has the power to add or eliminate ideas as they see fit. Work Flexibility: He advocates for a shift away from the traditional 9-5 workday in favor of shorter, more efficient blocks of collaboration time when teams are available for meetings and real-time responses to one another. Asynchronous development: Brian debunks the assumption that meetings are where fresh ideas should be presented. Instead, managers should allow their teams to think and develop asynchronously. Classic Leadership Perspectives: If managers want to retain their high-performing personnel, they should veer away from the belief that leaders should shield their teams from difficult decisions. Looking Ahead Brian is eager to discover more about the untapped potential of new trends such as asynchronous work models and scheduled flexibility. He's also interested in discovering strategies to safeguard a team's psychological safety by providing and encouraging skills training for frontline leaders. He's also intrigued by the concept of professional flexibility for deskless workers. Go to BarryO'Reilly.com for full show notes.

The Breakfast Leadership Network is a burnout media firm that works with companies so they not only survive but thrive in today's post-pandemic times. Michael Levitt is the founder and Chief Burnout Officer of Breakfast Leadership Inc. In that role, Michael wears many hats. He is an in-person and Certified Virtual Speaker, a Certified NLP and CBT therapist, and one of the world's leading authorities in burnout recovery and prevention. Michael has consulted with top executives from Fortune 500 companies, is a #1 best-selling author and host of the Breakfast Leadership Show, a top 200 podcast on iTunes. He is also a 2x Top 20 Global Thought Leader on Culture with Thinkers360. He brings his expertise to the table along with his Hero's Journey of how he recovered from burnout in 2010 and came back stronger than ever. Listen as he shares his One Big Tip on how you can beat burnout with self-care on today's podcast. Michael Levitt knows firsthand the damage that doing too much can cause. Having suffered from professional burnout in 2010, Michael had to put into practice techniques and skills that he acquired over his 30+ years as a consultant to his own life and make drastic changes so he can recover from what is most likely inevitable in today's post-pandemic work culture. With headquarters in San Diego and Toronto, Breakfast Leadership Inc has consulted with clients throughout North America. The company specializes in mitigating workplace challenges to avoid burnout and helps to implement strategies to help those in burnout recover. This is done by helping each company identify its strengths and help it thrive without burned-out leaders and executives. The World Health Organization recognizes burnout as an occupational phenomenon since 2019. They cite the following as symptoms: lack of energy and exhaustion as well as the increased mental distance from one's job, or feelings of negativity or cynicism related to one's job. All of these symptoms are exactly what Michael experienced from 2007 to 2009. Michael was working 7 days a week from 6 a.m.-11 p.m. as a healthcare executive. His work was all-consuming, leaving him to eat fast food daily and give up activities that brought him joy. The stress from work caused him to have a heart attack in the spring of 2010, and it all went downhill from there. Michael was fired, had his car repossessed, and his home foreclosed on, all within a year. Today, Michael sees it as the best year of his life because it allowed him to reinvent himself and design a burnout-free life. Michael learned self-care techniques and how to use his habits and emotions to avoid the burnout state again. Throughout all this, Michael never allowed himself to play the victim. He knew that victims stay in the position they are in. Michael knew he wanted to start over and rebuild his life. During the 17 week recovery after his heart attack at the age of 40, Michael did a lot of self-reflection. He did the hard work necessary to understand what brought him to that point in his life. But most importantly, he dug deep and realized the actions he needed to implement to change his life and the direction it was headed. He worked with various health professionals that guided him to get his life back on track to a steady, balanced place. Understanding the importance of boundaries was an integral part of the process. It is only through personal and professional boundaries that Michael was able to create a work environment where he was sure that burnout would not happen again. The first step to recovering from burnout is to recognize the behaviors and actions that lead up to it. The most prevalent cause of burnout, Michael found is the lack of sleep. According to Michael, most people don't prioritize a good night's rest and making their bedroom an environment conducive to a good nightSupport the show (https://jeffmendelson.com/onebigtip)
