Dave Oakley: Lead Different. The Good to Great Sherpa Will Be Your Guide.

Welcome to Part 1 of the amazing conversation with Dave Oakley, a proven, successful team builder, leader and consultant. Dave is known as the Good to Great Sherpa. Do you need a Sherpa to guide you through the challenging environment of leadership. Let’s talk people and culture. What do you focus on first? During a pandemic, where do leaders invest their energy?  Moreover, where have they enabled avoiding a topic, issue or conversation by “kicking the can down the lane” a little further (and not deal with it!) Dave’s emulates Level 5 Leadership (reference from Jim Collins book “Good to Great”)·      He wonders: what might you regret beyond this pandemic, as a leader?·      He encourages: Face the brutal facts.  •       He empowers leaders to Lead Different (he has recognized that the Collin’s body of work lacks explicit “How to” … so he is teaching, motivating, inspiring leaders and team to reach the next level and become Great!)Today’s episode is a burst of nuggets and inspiration.   We cover topics like: Difficult Conversations, Mirror vs the Window, the flywheel, “Who” questions, right people in the “right seats!” vs “BTNs” (Better than Nothing new hires), and regret turnover. The question really is: What is the impact of culture on good to great companies? It’s time to Lead Different and we are here to help today.Join our conversation! …and Part 2 next week!Meet Dave: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dave-oakley-2b77b87LinkedIn Good to Great Discussion Group:  https://www.linkedin.com/groups/8323109/ Let’s connect:LinkedIn:            https://www.linkedin.com/in/kimberly-j-snider/Website:              https://peoplebrain.caFacebook:         https://www.facebook.com/groups/PeopleBrain.OVERflow/Instagram:          https://www.instagram.com/overflow_podcast/Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/overflow-with-kimberly-snider.
