Christy Frazier, Melissa Dunn, and Jon Harrison discuss two VIP Way expectations: holding people accountable and communicating with excellence. Accountability requires clear expectations, candid conversations, openness to coaching, and leaders who follow through on their own commitments. Without it, culture, customer experience, retention, and top performers can suffer. They also emphasize that strong everyday communicationespecially from frontline supervisorscan either strengthen or drain employee morale and engagement.Upcoming Events:https://www.jonharrisonvip.com/eventsStatistically, every year about 70% of people are disengaged at work!

Host Christy Frazier, with Melissa Dunn and Jon Harrison, discuss the next two expectations: championing operational excellence and making sound decisions. Jon argues organizations must balance a healthy culture with measurable results. He also encourages leaders to use simple scoreboards and share metrics transparently to build ownership, innovation, and long-term thinking. They emphasize “getting awkward early,” speaking truth, and building passion for “winning at work.” On decision-making, the group rejects “common sense,” advocating intentional teaching of sound decision habits such as including others, thinking long-term, removing bias, and avoiding assumptions; these behaviors apply across roles and also translate to home life.Upcoming Events:https://www.jonharrisonvip.com/eventsStatistically, every year about 70% of people are disengaged at work!

Jon Harrison continues his conversation with Dr. Kevin Rindal on workplace health and performance, focusing on practical nutrition and wellness strategies for busy professionals. Rindal encourages tracking food intake with tools like MyFitnessPal to build awareness of nutrition habits and emphasizes making small, sustainable changes rather than following restrictive diets. The discussion also highlights the connection between employee well-being, leadership, and workplace culture, with actionable tips including better posture, movement breaks, hydration, sleep, and whole-food nutrition. Rindal concludes with affordable approaches to healthy eating, such as cooking at home, reducing processed foods, and incorporating simple staples like dried beans and fresh produce.Upcoming Events:https://www.jonharrisonvip.com/eventsStatistically, every year about 70% of people are disengaged at work!

Jon Harrison welcomes Dr. Kevin Rindal to discuss his transition from working with elite athletes including the U.S. Olympic Swim Team and U.S. Women’s Ice Hockey to helping utility, construction, and maritime companies reduce injuries and improve workforce readiness. Inspired by seeing his grandfather worn down by physical labor, Rindal developed “body maintenance” frameworks that apply simple, athlete-style recovery principles to workers, helping reduce injuries and improve mobility. They discuss results from early utility programs, including a 53% reduction in sprain/strain injuries and data showing five minutes of mobility work (the “daily five”) improved movement screening scores, especially for ages 50–60.

Host Christy Frazier, joined by Melissa Dunn and Jon Harrison, discusses how leaders and employees can navigate workplace disruptions like mergers, layoffs, and downsizing. They stress addressing the human impact first through empathy, communication, and one-on-one support, while quickly stabilizing operations through clear processes, retraining, and accountability. The conversation highlights the importance of transparency, strong core values, succession planning, and “thinking like an owner” to maintain trust, morale, and long-term resilience.Upcoming Events:https://www.jonharrisonvip.com/eventsStatistically, every year about 70% of people are disengaged at work!

Christy Frazier, Melissa Dunn, and Jon Harrison discuss how to stay positive when culture or process change feels slow and inconsistent. They stress managing expectations - culture change is a marathon built over decades by celebrating small victories, setting realistic timelines, and recognizing the emotional cycle of change. Leaders must act as cheerleaders, tailor support to different team needs, and address both active and passive resistance, especially when leaders undermine the effort. Lasting culture change comes from consistently measuring employee sentiment and accountability while empowering individuals to act as resilient change agents focused on improving what they can control.Upcoming Events:https://www.jonharrisonvip.com/eventsStatistically, every year about 70% of people are disengaged at work!

On this episode of the Jon Harrison podcast, host Christy Frazier, Jon Harrison and Melissa Dunn, discuss some of fears about AI “taking over” jobs but emphasize there have seen similar disruptions (computers, ATMs, outsourcing, call centers) before. They highlight that media-driven fear should be replaced with focusing on what can be controlled: becoming valuable through human skills like communication, customer service, approachability, accessibility, and the ability to explain, train, and troubleshoot work that AI may generate. The group discusses setting clear expectations and accountability around AI use while encouraging open dialogue, alongside cautiously piloting AI adoption with employee involvement to avoid rapid, disruptive changes.Upcoming Events:https://www.jonharrisonvip.com/eventsStatistically, every year about 70% of people are disengaged at work!

On this episode of the Jon Harrison podcast, the group discusses how workplace stress spills into personal life and argue that “balance” is not a 50/50 split but constant adjustment as demands shift. Jon emphasizes addressing stress early by talking before it “blows,” and leaders proactively checking in with employees rather than waiting for them to ask for help. The group notes individuals own their work-life balance, but leaders should show empathy for realities like newborns, sick children, or aging parents. Jennifer describes being a supportive “safe space” for a leader-spouse and building decompression rhythms (unwinding time, exercise, drive-home transitions), avoiding competition over who had the worse day, using better questions with kids (“highs and lows”), and doing weekly calendar check-ins.Upcoming Events:https://www.jonharrisonvip.com/eventsStatistically, every year about 70% of people are disengaged at work!

Host Christy Frazier, with Melissa Dunn and Jon Harrison, discusses what to do when a high-performing employee is promoted into leadership but struggles - whether due to difficulty shifting from “doer” to leading others, toxic or values-misaligned behavior, or poor results and team dissatisfaction. They stress first diagnosing the specific failure (behavior vs. performance), then addressing issues early through direct coaching, frequent one-on-ones, clear expectations, and a time-bound action plan. They recommend gathering data via employee conversations, upward feedback, and peer feedback, and note the promoter should take ownership and provide tools for self-correction. To prevent future mistakes, they suggest better transition support, mentoring, peer-input in selection, and trial/simulated leadership opportunities; if demotion is required, handle it sensitively due to morale impacts.Upcoming Events:https://www.jonharrisonvip.com/eventsStatistically, every year about 70% of people are disengaged at work!

Jon Harrison, Christy Frazier, and Melissa Dunn use Indiana’s unexpected undefeated national championship season to explain how workplace culture drives results. Jon shares that Indiana was historically one of college football’s worst programs until a new coach, Kurt Cignetti, reset the culture by setting a bold vision, raising standards, and reinforcing clear expectations and accountability. They discuss why strong teams focus on production over potential, gain buy-in, clarify roles, and block out naysayers during change. Indiana’s success with far fewer “star” recruits reinforces that leaders don’t need trendy tactics or top talent everywhere. Consistent fundamentals, accountability, and high expectations can outperform teams loaded with superstars.Upcoming Events:https://www.jonharrisonvip.com/eventsStatistically, every year about 70% of people are disengaged at work!
