Learn an important key to growing your business!

As a corporate anthropologist who works with organizations that need or want to change, it was truly a pleasure to bring Bill Flynn onto our show. We talked about all the things you need to develop to thrive in these fast-changing times. As Bill tells us, thousands of businesses are started every day. Most die, a few thrive and the rest struggle to survive — mainly through enormous effort, force of will and luck. There is a better way to take the guesswork out of growth: focusing on the few areas that make all the difference. Listen in!

The time to change is really now!

In this podcast, Bill and I discuss:

Are we trying to manage change in all the wrong ways? Is that why change management often doesn’t work?
Are we doing our talent development correctly? Is it working?
How about “feedback?” Is it backfiring? Instead of inspiring people to do better, is it driving people to flee or fear you?
What about early stage businesses? Is yours one that will burst through and soar or flip/flop until you fail?
