Changing Behaviors to Drive Results: Helping leaders unlock the potential within their people with Phil Geldart


Listen Later

In this episode we sit back and open up with Phil Geldart about the importance of taking control of your environment and the obligation of unlocking the potential within your people. How does a leader take over an organization and deal with previous trauma? We look at "impact" and "mindset" to understand how leaders need to listen when employees speak up, and what that means. We discuss communication and how this drives organizational success.

How do you distinguish between accountability and responsibility?
