Your organization’s culture: It’s either an asset or a liability. At this very moment, your culture is helping business performance. Or hurting it.http://5Frequencies.comFIVE FREQUENCIES (Logos Institute; June 26, 2019; Hardcover) demystifies culture, with proven and practical tools for leaders. Written by Jeff Grimshaw, Tanya Mann, Lynne Viscio, and Jennifer Landis of leadership consultancy MGStrategy https://mgstrat.com/Five Frequencies answers one of the most critical questions facing leaders and organizations today: How do you turn into a sustainable source of competitive advantage? Based on 20 years of research, the answer couldn’t be clearer: Intentionally or unintentionally, leaders create culture through the signals they broadcast on Five Frequencies: 1. Their decisions and actions - It’s about showing more than telling, role modeling what you want to see more of, and operating “long-term greedy.” 2. What they reward and recognize - You always get more of what you reward and recognize. The authors reveal what behavioral economists say about making rewards and recognition truly motivating. 3. What they tolerate (or don’t) - Leaders and cultures are ultimately defined by what they do and don’t tolerate...even when it’s unpleasant. 4. How they show up informally - You must build trust and affiliation to make it easier to confront and solve problems—without egos getting in the way. 5. Their formal communications - Sometimes leaders think they can shape a strong culture simply with a robust formal communication program - that doesn’t work. But you can use formal communication to amplify your signals on the other frequencies—and the authors show you how. In Five Frequencies, the authors break down each frequency with several case studies and real-world examples of where leaders and companies have failed (such as Wells Fargo, Enron) and succeeded (the Detroit Fire Department and DBS Bank, Asia) and the specific reasons and action points related to each. Five Frequencies includes follow up assessments to show what’s working and why—so leaders can double-down on what’s effective, and recalibrate what isn’t.

Here's the link to Dr. Oz's video that was discussed during our interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V1XNllFiEpo&feature=youtu.be The best employers inherently know that taking care of their employees means their employees will take care of their customers. Offering a benefits plan that takes care of the employee and doesn’t break the bank, that’s the dream. It can drive higher job satisfaction, improve morale and help with the ever-present issue of employee engagement. Most employers don’t know how to accomplish this – or even that it is possible! Allison De Paoli (dih-PAULY) wants every employer she works with to be in complete control of their healthcare spend – driving the maximum value from every dollar and allowing those saved dollars to grow the business and the bottom line. AND she’d like to deliver a world-class benefits program to those employees. Understanding how to drive those savings while finding a world class benefits package can be intimidating. Few insurance professionals understand how to get under the hood and tinker to make the plan work better. Allison does. And she’s here today to show us how. Learn more about your ad choices.

Interview with Steve Wiley

Friday Jul 26, 2019
My mission is to rid the world of "zombies in the workforce and life." Why? Because, I was one. Though I professed that my faith and family were most important, I did not demonstrate it. Eventually, I crashed. I sought and pursued a better way. I am now inspired, productive, and fulfilled in my personal and professional life. I eventually started my own consulting business and authored a book on the topic of healthy life balance (Navigate Chaos). I hope my story can inspire others to "Take the CONN" in pursuit of healthy balance and personal fulfillment.https://www.linkedin.com/in/stwileyhttps://Ceekllc.com/balance for the assessment@CeekLLC (Twitter/Instagram)Book: Navigate Chaos : https://www.amazon.com/Navigate-Chaos-5-Step-Balance-Priorities/dp/1732517606stevewiley@ceekllc.comLearn more about your ad choices.
