Every Problem Is a Relationship Problem | Tom Hagerty
from The Honest Mic Hosted by Fortune
Failed relationships cost American businesses eight trillion dollars per year. Disengaged workers have 37 percent higher absenteeism and are 63 percent more likely to quit abruptly. And yet most leadership training completely ignores how humans actually work. Tom Hagerty is a retired corporate executive and business fixer with over 45 years of experience. He's written a book called The Business of Relationships, and his core argument is simple: every problem is a relationship problem. But here's the twist. Tom doesn't think we should look to therapists or self-help gurus for answers. He thinks we should look to CEOs. The wisdom of people like Jobs, Buffett, Gates, and Sandberg — applied to your marriage, your kids, your colleagues, your neighbor. In this episode of The Honest Mic, Tom talks about the eight trillion dollar cost of broken relationships, why CEOs might have wisdom for your marriage, and why waiting until something breaks is usually too late. Don't wait. Change before you have to. Connect with Tom: Book: The Business of Relationships on Amazon.
