Episode Description
In this episode, Sandy takes a look at how "human" leaders who focus on their associates, coach them and pay attention to them as people first and employees second experience much more success than those who subscribe to the outdated notion that "there is no room for emotion in the workplace." She also discusses the fact that although we certainly have specific Job Duties for each position, we also have Human Duties that accompany every job we do. Join Sandy and find out how humanity, compassion, coaching and caring can turn any workplace into a WOWplace!
Leadership and Life
Archives Available on VoiceAmerica Business Channel
Leadership is not confined to the workplace. It crosses industries and permeates every aspect of our lives. That is why this show is called Leadership and Life. My guests and I will talk about what makes great leaders great. We will share tips, tools, mindsets and behaviors that demonstrate the human side of our best leaders and reveal how they inspire exceptional levels of excellence and loyalty in their teams.
Our guests know that a great way to engage others is to create a bridge that relates to their lives. So, during part of each show, we will dive into one of those universal bridges, and one of my favorite parts of life, food! Business and personal gatherings center around it. It crosses all boundaries.
Each week we will share our favorite recipes. I invite you to share yours. Join me as we feed our minds and bodies with recipes for success that will develop our skills and guide us to be the best we can be, in and out of the workplace.
