Is it fair?

Toddlers in pre-school cry that it's unfair.. Elon Musk and Donald Trump are doing much the same. Your team will too.

There's a deep human need for things to feel fair.

Yet, there is no sign that life and the universe intend life to be fair. Every species is different. And every person is different.

Your team will judge you for your fairness.

Yet, that doesn't mean that you treat them the same. Sometimes it's been refined into equitable. That everyone has the same chance.

Your job as a Manager is not to treat everyone the same.

It's to understand which each need. In our conversation Tony Walmsley talked about the differences between Sprinters and Marathon Runners. Each needs different things.

Your team members each have different needs... your job is to work out what they are.

Today's podcast episode was a discussion with Niki Vinogradoff, Tony Walmsley and myself.
