Karin Hurt & David Dye | Building Courageous Cultures To Bring Out Best In Employees

Leadership Biz Cafe with Tanveer Naseer

As we move to a hybrid work environment, the organizational culture we foster both internally and remotely becomes critical to what we’re able to achieve. So how can we ensure we’re creating an environment - both virtually and in-person - that inspires employees to share their ideas and insights on how we can improve what we collectively do? That’s what I’ll be discussing with my guests, Karin Hurt and David Dye, on this episode of my podcast, “Leadership Biz Cafe”. Karin and David are the CEO and President of Let’s Grow Leaders, a leadership training and consulting company. In addition, Karin hosts the popular LinkedIn show, Asking for a Friend, which I’ve actually had the pleasure to be a guest on. As for David, he’s no stranger to the podcast world as he hosts his own podcast, “Leadership Without Losing Your Soul”. On top of that, Karin and David have written two books together, including their latest “Courageous Cultures: How to Build Teams of Micro-Innovators, Problem Solvers, and Customer Advocates”, which serves as the focus of our conversation. Over the course of this episode, Karin, David, and I discuss: What makes for a courageous culture and why it’s critical to your organization’s ability to innovate and adapt.Why it’s harder for employees to speak up about making smaller changes than promoting large scale change within the organization.What their research has shown as being the big reason why a majority of employees don’t want to share their ideas with their bosses.The ways leaders respond to their employees which actually leads them to shut down instead of bringing their best efforts to work. https://open.spotify.com/episode/2upIRzIgbrl0DhGkBBGbAY Noteworthy links: Buy Karin and David’s book “Courageous Culture” on Amazon*Learn more about Karin and David’s work - letsgrowleaders.com. *Sponsored link used to support podcast.
