Learn how empowering your employees catalyzes your business
In October of last year I was interviewed by Emma
Mills-Sheffield for her blog. We spoke about the
challenges that businesses face when they stop growing, which is
the subject of my first book, "On the
Brink: A Fresh Lens to Take Your Business to New
Heights," that shares seven case studies of
clients who had gotten stuck or stalled. We discussed how Emma
approaches business operations in a way that she can help companies
scale and sustain their growth. As we spoke, I realized that we can
always learn new things in new ways. And you will as well. Listen
in!

Emma and I both find that people are the opportunity and the challenge
We all know that an organization is a group of people. And that its success is dependent upon those people being able to “see, feel and think” for themselves but also as a collaborative unit.
What Emma will share with you is how she develops people's workplace skills using humility and vulnerability. She helps them see themselves in fresh ways and develop their resilience and capabilities so they can become a happy and productive workforce—what every employer wants. Because at the end of the day, any company is just a summary of its employees. Now is a good time to foster engagement and enthusiasm among your own employees as you re-enter a post-COVID environment.
