Join Ross as he speaks with industry veteran Berta Aldrich. Berta is the author of the book Winning the Talent Shift: Three Steps to Unleashing the New High Performance Workplace. Berta’s inspiration for the book was to prepare her daughter to enter the corporate world, where she will likely encounter the tactics high performers experience all too often: bad bosses, targeting, and gaslighting. What were some of the surprising research Berta encountered as she wrote the book? What was most alarming? What does a high performer in the workplace look like? If these issues are so pervasive in our corporate culture, why do they still exist? What is the difference between a high achiever and a high performer? Practically speaking, how can we hire to increase diversity at our firms, while not violating the law during the hiring process? Why is addressing all of this important for the next generation? With years of experience working in many areas of our industry at the C-level, Berta’s understanding of corporate culture along with her practical experience and research brings real help to those looking to grow their firms through building high-performing teams.
