In many respects we're living through a period of time where we've forced a decade of disruption into (at this point) a 12-week period. Or at least that's what it's felt like between the COVID crisis and the ongoing struggles related to racial inequality, diversity, equity, and inclusion. This is a lot of change, requiring a lot of emotional investment on all of our parts, and all forced into a very short period of time. Those of us who lead teams need to recognize just how significantly this level of disruption and change impacts our teams. And we need to recognize that the way we engage with our team, and the way our people engage with one another, and with our supporters and volunteers has a very real impact on our ability to deliver revenue and accomplish our personal and organizational objectives. This is why I was so excited to have my good friend, Ben Stroup, Founder of Velocity Strategy Solutions and author of Master The Pivot, back on the show today for a second conversation. Ben has developed a new platform to give organizations an unfair competitive advantage to optimize talent and drive revenue improvements. This is a great conversation and will challenge the way you think about the link between people and organizational revenue -- it totally changed my perspective!
