Leading with grace (with John Baldoni‪)‬ Aim Higher: The podcast with purpose

    • Management

In many areas of life -- business, politics, finance -- we think of power as a "zero sum game." If one person or side has it, the other doesn't. My guest on this week's episode of "Aim Higher," John Baldoni, turns that assumption on its head, with a philosophy of leadership based on grace: the idea that doing something for others and for the greater good can result in better outcomes for everyone. While it's obviously a theory rooted in ethics, it's also surprisingly efficient, especially as a leadership model. Why? Because when leaders model behavior that's good for others, that creates an environment that's good for the company, shareholders, and customers. Listen in, as John and I discuss some very practical ideas that start from a place in the heart.
