In this episode, we explore 3 questions posed to us by our listeners:

  1.       Why do many recognition programs fall short?
  2.       Why do many teams give up on people and culture initiatives?
  3.      How can a new manager improve things when they do not have the authority to change them?

Our prescription for this episode: understand the complexity of efforts, changes, and programs you want to implement. Anything involving people is naturally complex, so "off the shelf" solutions never work every time, in every situation, for everybody.
