Taryn Abrahams: The Power Of Showing Up And Listening
Taryn Abrahams of Empower Behavioral Services observes that people don't leave their jobs for pay, benefits, and working conditions, they leave because of weak leadership, negative culture, and a lack of belonging. When most leaders say, "we're all in this together", most employees aren't buying it. Few manager are meeting the 4 core needs of every employee: 1) feeling respected; 2) getting/giving constructive feedback; 3) acting with integrity; and 4) consistency and fairness. As Taryn reminds us, we don't have to be perfect. It's what we do when we imperfect that makes all the difference. Listen to the end for a very valuable gift that Taryn is offering our listeners.
