Babbitt 07:23 Mark's Military Background and Family Legacy 12:51 The Importance of Respect and Discipline 20:51 Navigating Political and Social Chaos 25:36 Finding Peace and Gratitude   Bio Culture architect. Executive and career coach. Blogger and speaker. Co-author of Good Comes First and A World Gone Social. An employee mass exodus is taking place – right in front of our eyes. And it isn't because of a so-called labor shortage. Instead, we have a RESPECT shortage – and we have far too many workplace cultures that suck. As business leaders are now (finally) learning, today's workplace can't – and shouldn't – function like it did just a few short years ago. As leaders, we must treat employees, customers, and stakeholders with the respect they deserve. And, we must care just as much about respect as we do results. In other words, we must ensure good comes first. Then, and only then, can we expect metrics like engagement, retention, customer service, productivity and profits to improve. My job (and I love my job!) is to help organizations, leaders, and employees see this tsunami of change for what it is: an opportunity to lead, work, think – and compete – differently. How do I help? - I guide leaders to create a purposeful, positive, and productive work culture – a company culture where people expect respect, and the daily showing of respect inspires better results. - I help leaders understand (and then improve) their current level of Workplace Intelligence (WQ) – a metric that helps leaders understand how their teams work best together. - Through coaching and mentoring, I empower professionals, from college graduates to CEOs, to realize their career – and their voice – matters, and I help them get their voice heard. I was recently honored when Inc. Magazine included me in their “Top 100 Leadership Speakers” list and “Top 50 Leadership Innovators.” In addition, Entrepreneur, Forbes, Inc., The Economist, HBR, and many other major publications have featured my work and voice. As a speaker, I'm passionate about delivering “actionable inspiration.” So, we don't just talk about the “why” – we dive into the “what” and “how.” My goal at every event is to lead an interactive discussion that inspires audience members to go beyond TALKING action… to TAKING action. As the pandemic lifts, I look forward to once again speaking at major events, conferences, corporate leadership forums and industry associations. Pre-pandemic, I spoke internationally at Ignite, IBM Insight, for the Digital Citizenship Institute, and many others. I've also spoken for Harvard and the University of China in Hong Kong, Columbia, Princeton, NYU, UCLA, and many other universities.

What if low salaries, the absence of benefits, or lack of training aren't the leading causes of the labor shortage almost every industry is experiencing?

#398: In this episode, Michael Gardon chats with Mark Babbitt. Mark S. Babbitt is President of WorqIQ, a community and change management consultancy that helps organizations understand leadership's impact on culture and the company's collective level of Workplace Intelligence (WQ).

The last year has been hugely difficult. Soon, however, organizations will begin their rise out of the challenging and often contentious times we are currently mired in. Our guest this time is Mark S. Babbitt, culture architect, career coach, blogger, speaker and author. Mark is also President at WorqIQ and CEO at YouTern."There’s a revolution happening" says Mark. "Business today doesn’t function like it did just a few short years ago. As leaders, our customers and our employees now expect more from us"... My job" he adds "is to help organizations, leaders and employees see this tsunami of change for what it is: an opportunity to lead, work, think – and compete – differently".Mark has been included in Inc. Magazine’s list of “Top 100 Leadership Speakers" and was mentioned among the "Top 50 Leadership Innovators." His work is often featured in Entrepreneur, Forbes, Inc and HBR.In addition, Mark has spoken at major events, conferences, corporate leadership forums and industry associations around the globe including Ignite, IBM Insight, the Digital Citizenship Institute, and the Tiger Woods Foundation.

Companies have spent billions of dollars on improving employee engagement for more than 30 years. But according to our guest Mark S Babbitt, world-renowned career and leadership mentor, “we’ve barely moved the needle.” Mark decided it was time to do things differently and started WorqIQ, to help companies focus on the human side of business. “Many companies have simply beaten the human right out of Human Resources. I don’t want things to go back to the way they used to be. I don’t want humankind to miss this opportunity.”  To help get people to work together to solve the problems organizations face, Mark coined the term workplace intelligence; it’s the emotional intelligence of an organization.  Most simply companies don’t know what they stand for, company cultures suck, Mark told us. They can’t look a candidate in the eye and say “here you are safe. Here we respect you as a person. You will grow here as a human being.” Mark is on a mission to fix that. He is also founder of YouTern, a social career resource for college students, recent graduates, and young professionals that enables them to use mentoring, internships, and networks to advance their careers. His new book, Good Comes First: How Today's Leaders Build an Uncompromising Company Culture That Doesn't Suck, published by BenBella Books, arrives September 2021. Joyce Gioia joins the show again as co-host and lead contributor on the segment Ahead of the Curve, Normal 2.0.  Today’s topic was “The Value of Thinking Like a Futurist.”

In this episode, Mark Babbitt, the President of WorqIQ, founder and CEO of YouTern shares why creating a people-centered company culture while maximizing the impact of social media using workplace intelligence is important.

Join us each week as experts help us explore issues shaping the world of work! #TChat Radio show is back live on Wednesday, October 16, 2013, at 6:30 pm ET (3:30 pm PT). Immediately after, our entire community will continue the conversation on #TChat Twitter from 7-8 pm ET.   Last week, the TalentCulture community discussed age discrimination in the workplace. This week, we look at age in the workplace from another perspective -- specifically through the lens of Generation X.   Why Gen X? Many say that Boomers and Millennials capture most of the attention -- leaving little on the table for those in the middle. But does evidence really support that perception? Is Gen X suffering in silence somehow? If so, what are the consequences for business, as Boomers retire from the workforce, and organizations require new leaders, experts and innovators?   This week, we're giving Gen X the attention it deserves.   Join #TChat co-creators and hosts Meghan M. Biro and Kevin W. Grossman as we welcome expert guest, Mark Babbitt, CEO of YouTern and COO of SwitchandShift.   This is a topic that affects us all -- regardless of our age or profession. So be sure to tune in and join the conversation!

Happy New Year! #TChat Radio is all new on Tuesday, January 8, 2013, at 7:30 pm ET (4:30 pm PT).   2013 is upon us. What does it mean for careers? With the true U.S. unemployment rate still high and employee engagement still low, who out there is still looking, who’s given up and who’s about to start? How do we make ourselves more marketable and relevant in an ever-changing world of work? How do we skill up, keep our jobs, find new jobs and transition if we’re looking for a new career path? This week’s #TChat Radio and Twitter #TChat welcome career management experts and candidates alike to help to answer these questions and give us all hope for a better employment outlook.   Join co-creators and Hosts, Meghan M. Biro and Kevin W. Grossman and this week's fantastic #TChat Radio guests Miriam Salpeter, Founder of Keppie Careers, Mark Babbitt, CEO of YouTern, and Andy Osburn, CEO of Equals6.com. And Kevin W. Grossman will shamelessly plug his new career management book Tech Job Hunt Handbook. We'll see you here!
