Phil Gafka: Pursuing Excellence in Leadership, Culture, and Influence

In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Phil Gafka discuss: The top leadership and culture challenges that are faced in the workplace. Putting the right people in the right seats.  Understanding what your values mean to your organization. Posing questions to influence change.    Key Takeaways: You manage the process, you lead people. As a “managing partner,” you need to learn how to lead your team, not just manage the processes of what is happening.  There are potentially 5 generations working in your organization - stop talking about the difference and focus on the commonalities between us as a team.  Values don’t have to transfer from one organization to another, but you do have to be honest and deep with understanding what your organization’s culture and values are.  Set your sights on excellence, not perfection.    "The only way you can move forward is to accept responsibility and then make those connections." —  Phil Gafka   Connect with Phil Gafka:   Website: leapcoaching.com Email: Phil@leapcoaching.com LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/philgafka/   Connect with Steve Fretzin: LinkedIn: Steve Fretzin Twitter: @stevefretzin Facebook: Fretzin, Inc.
