213: Dealing with Challenging Employees when Building Courageous Culture | with Karin Hurt




Engaging Leader: Leadership communication principles with Jesse Lahey show

Summary: <br> Some leaders look at their people, shake their heads, and say, “They can’t get there from here.” Sometimes that’s true. But often the solution is creating a stronger culture, where employees are encouraged and coached to contribute their best thinking.<br> People are different, and these differences can add value. As a leader, you need to figure out the best ways to leverage the strengths of the human beings on your team.<br> In part 2 of this conversation with Karin Hurt about her newest book, Courageous Cultures, we talk about dealing with five additional types of people who present a specific challenge:<br> <br> Just-Tell-Me-What-to-Do-ers: They consistently just want to be told what to do. <br> Just-Do-What-I-Sayers: They are often successful and just want people to line up behind them and do what they’re told.<br> Let-Me-Do-My-Thing-ers: They are certain of their direction and methods.<br> Silent Wounded: They don’t trust you—and with good reason. They’ve been burned by previous leaders.<br> * Silent Ponderous: They may be quiet introverts, but they have insights you desperately need.<br> <br> Karin Hurt is the award-winning author of several books and an Inc.
