Interview Insights



Top 3 Takeaways




People should stop asking whether to put high-quality content or not. Our content should always be high-quality. 



Focus on building your content on your primary website. While posting on sites such as LinkedIn is great, there is a chance you may be taken off at any moment.



It is not content marketing without a call to action.

Interview Insights



Top 3 Takeaways




The pandemic ushered in an era in which 'respect' is the currency that makes people stay in their job.



Leaders who make an extra effort to keep their top performers usually do. No matter how high the pay, if employees feel that they are undervalued, disregarded, and disrespected, they move on. At least those with the most potential and ambition move on.



Know your employees. Take a quick survey of what they like and dislike, or ask any questions that will give you a better understanding of who they are. This way, you'll know how to give them respect in a way that matters most. Each person defines respect differently. 




Show Notes from this Episode




Merrylue shared about her friend Joanna who, during one of the darkest moments, reminded her that our quest is not to be perfect but only to be our best. [01:44]





The pandemic accelerated changes that were already been building up tensions. Merrylue explains why today's work environment is no longer "your grandfather's workplace." [07:26]





Why is it important to avoid overloading top performers?  [11:16]





What is one of the dangers of top performers quitting? It tends to be a domino effect. After all, these are people their peers look up to. [13:40]





What are stay interviews? What are some of the advantages stay interviews have over exit interviews? [17:20]





Respect is defined differently by different people. Sally and Leroy's answer to the question, "What is it that would be most respectful to you," could not be further from each other. [20:15]





What are the 3Rs that can be used to retain talent? Requirements, Rewards, and Respect. [24:16]





CASE: Sandy works in the film industry in LA. She feels like she doesn't get enough respect at work, so despite the excellent pay, she dreads her working hours. [27:52]





CASE: Jim works for a start-up company. Unlike Sandy, Jim isn't paid that much, but Jim loves his work. He is always looking forward to going to work, and that is because he feels like he is being treated like gold. [29:34]

Interview Insights



Top 3 Takeaways




When our business grows, so do our responsibilities. As leaders, we need to learn how to change where we spend our time, delegate obligations, and know when to hire external help.





Receiving 360 feedback will give us words that can hurt us. But feedback is critical because we might be 100% assured that we are competent enough with a job that sometimes we need our people to point out when and where we're falling short.





When our own people are hesitant to share their honest feedback even when asked, that is a sign of lack of trust and an urgent matter we need to fix.
