Manage episode 514881981 series 2280162
Martha Lawrence is Executive Editor at Blanchard and author of the book, “Catch People Doing Things Right: How Ken Blanchard Changed the Way the World Leads” in which she paints an intimate portrait of the man behind “The One Minute Manager” and dozens of other influential books. Mike Petrusky asks Martha about Ken Blanchard's leadership philosophy which emphasizes working with people rather than controlling them and they discuss how catching people doing things right can significantly boost energy levels and morale. Martha says that leadership is not just about formal positions, but she believes anyone can be a leader by influencing others, so our focus should be on empowering people and fostering a positive environment. Innovation often requires collaboration and overcoming the natural tendency to focus on mistakes, but effective change management involves addressing people's concerns about information, personal impact, and implementation. Mike and Martha discuss Ken’s influence and his work as they offer the practical advice and inspiration you will need to be a Workplace Innovator in your organization!
