Innovating Leadership: Co-Creating Our Future ·

2023/01/09

Guest: John Antonakis Power does tend to corrupt. Especially the more testosterone is added to the mix. That’s just one finding that the scientific study of leadership has revealed. Yet, despite the legions of leadership consultants plying their theories, very little research in the field has been conducted with scientific rigor. Even science basics, such as control groups and identifying variables, are missing. That punches big holes in many leading leadership philosophies and best-selling

Guest: Kenny McDonald It takes a village to raise a city. That twists traditional wisdom, but it’s true: no one leader can improve an urban landscape alone.

Guest: Greg Moran "Good afternoon, staff. I'm listening." If only your boss truly listened, like Frasier Crane! The reality is most folks high up the chain have little clue about what the front line -- and the customers the front line interacts with -- are thinking.
