In today's episode, I am receiving Joris Merks-Benjaminsen. If you go on his LinkedIn profile, he describes himself as an award winning author, and organization transformation expert specializing in cultivating inclusive high performance teams and cultures. Apart from writing about 6 books already on marketing, management and even courage, he was one of the highest scoring managers of all time when he was working at Google as the Head of Google Digital Academy. From that experience he will share today, he wrote his latest book: Managing Without Power. In today's episode, we uncover together why he became a people manager, what his secret sauce is to be a best performing manager and the pieces of advice he has for people who want to become managers themselves.
