Roger Martin on why your boss's broken leadership is safety blanket.

The Justin Brady Show

Why does your boss repeat the same broken leadership model, despite seeing poor results? It's because many business models are simply a warm security blanket, absolving the CEO responsibility. Best-selling author, Roger Martin calls out bad leadership and explains how data can crush imagination.

Martin is the former Dean of the Rotman School, best-selling author, the #1 Thinkers 50 for Management, and author of his newest book, A New Way To Think.

Topics in this show:

• How do leaders get trapped in bad models to begin with? Did they ever work? (Nope!)
• Why adopting models gives leaders an "out" from their failures.
• A symptom of a broken model is customer service repeating "that's just policy."
• Why we must be cautious on how we interpret AI data to predict future models and how we risk limiting imagination.
• How the ridiculous hiring and firing cycle many large organizations use, stems from their organization of employees around roles but not projects.
