#16: Inspire Your Team with Authenticity with Alex Aanderud
On this episode of Talent Matters, we’re veering off of our regularly scheduled programming to chat with one of our own consultants, Alex Aanderud from Legacy of Results. We’ve worked with Alex over the years, and we love the unique perspective he takes on when he’s helping businesses find talent.
Alex started as an engineer with Boeing, but he’s a people person at heart, and he took his love of systems and figuring out how they worked and applied that concept to people. Instead of working with something tangible like a jet engine, he wanted to apply his skills and knowledge to something more intrinsic and intangible.
The systems he works with now focuses on what makes people different and how these unique individuals can fit into a team or business model. He created the asset management tools that we use to look at how people, communication, culture, and trust all work together to create successful teams of employees that not only do their job well but also find pride in their work.
One of the biggest changes we have all seen in the talent pool is that employees are not feeling fulfilled in their work. Jobs are becoming more of a means to an end, rather than a space where a person can be their authentic self and fulfill their potential.
For Alex, this lack of fulfillment calls for a change in leadership. Leaders need to adapt to the current hiring pool and better communicate with their teams in such a way that makes them feel valued.
Value is more than just a paycheck to some employees, and there are four key points that Alex discusses with every organization he works with to make sure there is a process in place that inspires work fulfillment. These four points are:
Alex explains how these four points create authenticity in an organization and how this authenticity can be used to motivate your team and establish a sense of pride within the company. The team is always right, Alex explains, and it’s up to those in leadership positions to recognize where the team is coming from and motivate them appropriately.
Listen now to learn if you have the right process in place to make your employees feel valued and how you can inspire them from a place of authenticity.
