The Power of Strong Ties at Work: A conversation with Art Markman

There are many reasons driving employee disengagement and departures these days. The latest episode aims to shed light on how to address one of the drivers – lack of connection. My guest, Art Markman and I explore the difference between family, neighbors and strangers – how you treat them and what you expect from them and what we can learn from these differences and apply in the workplace to increase connection and organizational commitment. Art Markman,  is a professor of psychology and vice provost of Academic Affairs at the University of Texas Austin.  Art is the author of smart thinking and habits of leadership, smart change, brain briefs, and, most recently, bring your brain to work. Listen in as we explore the non-rational, human dimension of organizations, walk through a foundational framework for thinking about connection at work and the 3 questions people leaders should be asking their team members regularly.  Connect with Art MarkmanEmail: [email protected] LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/art-markman-93aa6a22/ Connect with Susan Morgan Bailey Email: [email protected] LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/susanmbailey/
