Manage episode 414489215 series 3558360
"Leadership is about balance—the push and the pull. You need to know when to drive results and when to inspire and motivate your team." - Joe Folkman
Joe Folkman, psychometrician and co-founder of Zenger Folkman, specializes in leadership inspiration and teaching companies to build trust among their employees. He covers the role of interpersonal skills, the impact of trust on national economies, and simple behaviors that boost trust within organizations.
Joe and host Gretchen Schott share personal experiences and delve deep into the nuances of leadership styles, discussing the delicate balance between "push" and "pull" competencies. Together, they make a compelling argument for leadership that emphasizes strong relationships and effective conflict resolution.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
Trust is influenced by factors such as relationship building, consistency, and expertise, and its presence or absence can significantly impact an organization's success.
Assessments can be more predictive and insightful when they incorporate the perspectives of others rather than self-assessment alone.
Learning to value diversity and differences, understanding one's limitations in diverse perspectives, and inviting feedback to build trust are necessary skills for resolving conflicts.
