World-renowned business thinker, Gary Hamel joins Moe Abdou to explore the hidden dimension that distinguishes the world’s most admired leaders and the organizations they lead.

The Balance Between People and Power

Leadership is highly personal, and its impact is always in the eye of the beholder. Still, the one hallmark that I find most common amongst those I most admire is a level of consistency that’s unrivaled. Consistency of thought, of purpose, of principle, of integrity, and of action over a long period of time.

While in their presence, you’ll know that you’re the singular focus of their attention – for they know that the only measure of true success lies less in the power they possess, than it does in the betterment of other human beings.

Confucius once said that “what the superior man seeks is in himself, what the small man seeks in others”; and that’s what got me excited about Michele Zanini and Gary Hamel’s new work – Humanocracy: Creating Organizations As Amazing As The People Inside Them”.

In it, they make a convincing plea for reimagining modern leadership – away from traditional power structures and bureaucracy, and more towards a human-centric and meritocratic type environment. And while that may appear to be a simple pivot; it’s one that doesn’t stand a chance without each leader first seeking the Truth inside herself/himself.

For nearly three decades now, I’ve held Gary and his work in the highest regard, and while this certainly isn’t the 90’s – one recurring theme has been consistent throughout all of his work – the power of human ingenuity. Here’s a glimpse of what you can expect:

Episode Overview:

  • What we’ve learned since The Future of Management?
  • What’s visible today in management/leadership that wasn’t in 2007?
  • Leadership in 2020 – who stands out and why?
  • What makes the notion of a human-centric organization so elusive?
  • The big misconception about people’s abilities to change – and change often?

  • Why leaders continue to express concern for the breadth of innovation when its their highest priorities to do so?
  • The traps that nimble organizations today have to avoid to stay human-centric?
  • The seven levers of a human-centric organizations?
  • The impact of a human-centric organization on capitalism as we know it?
  • What we can learn from Nucor and Haier?
  • Why we need to redefine the problem away from power and control; and more towards contribution?

An Interview with Tom Rath on Life's Great Question

An Interview with Tom Rath on Life’s Great Question 1920 1080 chase

In an important & timely conversation, Moe is joined by leading workplace researcher and the author of StrengthsFinder 2.0, Tom Rath to discuss the correlation between contribution and wellbeing.

Life’s Great Question

Few have contributed to understanding the concept of modern work as Tom Rath. In his nearly two decade association with Gallup, he not only actualized the concept of Strength based performance; but he brought to life a concept of wellbeing that goes way beyond career fulfillment and focuses instead on the science of designing a meaningful life.

Tom’s work has been an integral part of my life since I first received an advanced copy of StrengthsFinder 2.0 nearly 13 years ago. It was a concept that I had embraced in building my organization with New York Life; still I was so outwardly focused that I neglected to align my own life with the skills that most ignited my impact. One thing for certain, I’m most alive when I know I’m contributing to the success and wellbeing of others, and it’s people like Tom who continually reinforce why that’s the most important work that any of us can hope to achieve.

Tom’s latest book – Life’s Great Question: Discover How You Contribute to the World is the purest reflection of an individual who was born to serve. It goes without saying that Tom’s impact on the world is far-reaching – but as you listen to this conversation, you’ll walk away understanding why it’s his character and his example that truly brings his work to life.

Episode Overview:

  • The science of designing your life for optimal performance?
  • An approach to change that’s more inviting and actually works.
  • A smarter way to look at your current work/role, and the question that ignites it.
  • Life’s great question – what is it?
  • Unpacking the three key components of job crafting.
  • Why all teams need to create, operate, and relate?
  • The myth of following your passion and the importance of actualizing your contribution?
  • The key question that will help you commercialize your contribution?
  • Why reconstructing yesterday is more impactful than designing tomorrow?
  • What does a healthy relationship with money look like?
