The Diamond Rule: Purposeful Differentiation In Business with Stan Phelps

Today Gina welcomes the definition of a differentiator. Stan Phelps, author, keynote speaker, and workshop facilitator discusses his unique concept of the 'Goldfish Series' - a set of books focusing on various aspects of business strategy, all symbolized by different colored goldfish. Phelps explains the idea behind each color, such as purple representing differentiation and customer experience, or green symbolizing employee well-being. He also introduces the 'Diamond Rule', a concept that integrates both self-understanding and empathy into handling business under pressure. He elaborates on various business behavior styles symbolized by animals, like Rhino (control), Deer (influence), Porcupine (power), and Bear (authority), that help to identify individual and team characteristics in a business environment.
