Show Notes

It's time for another Q&A session!

In this episode of Unlocking Your People, Jess is joined once again by Kendra Lane as they answer questions submitted to them on a wide range of subjects.


You'll learn the benefits of strength-based leadership, as well as methods for determining how to best support an employee - developing their strengths versus building their weaknesses.


Jess and Kendra will explore the concept of diversity in the workplace, including the benefits and challenges. They’ll also reveal how "oil and water" colleagues can learn to work together more effectively.


You'll discover how changing the language around team members’ differences can help build better interactions and understanding.


You'll learn why leaders tend to absorb their employee's problems (their "monkeys") as well as the benefit of giving team members everything they need to solve their own problems before they grow into more serious issues.


You'll also find out how leaders can become better informed about issues affecting their team members, issues that can lead to larger problems such as burnout.


Join Jess and Kendra as they answer pressing questions around unlocking your people!


Enjoy!
