    Episode 260 Judging Performance

    This week on The People Centric Podcast, we talk about judging performance and why most of us are not very good at it. Not because we are careless, but because we often forget what we should actually be judging. We explore how performance conversations get off track when we do not look at job expectations, agreed upon goals, or real metrics. Instead, we rely on assumptions, opinions, or what we personally think someone should be doing. That leads to frustration, unfair judgments, and broken trust. We discuss this not just from a manager perspective, but also how coworkers judge each other’s work and how employees judge their managers. Performance judgments happen at every level, whether we admit it or not. From the employee perspective, we talk about clarity and advocating for fair expectations. From the manager perspective, we focus on evaluating work based on agreed standards instead of gut feelings. And from the executive perspective, we discuss how unclear roles and measures create misalignment across teams. Better performance conversations start with shared understanding, not assumptions.

    Episode 259 Syncing Up!

    This week on The People Centric Podcast, we talk about what happens when a team gets out of sync and how to bring alignment back. Misalignment does not usually come from bad intentions. It comes from missed conversations, unclear priorities, and not having shared visibility into what is happening.   We break down why real alignment requires at least two people actively contributing to the conversation, not just one person talking. We also talk about the importance of intentional time together, clear meeting agendas, and simple tools that help everyone see progress, priorities, and decisions.   From the employee perspective, we explore how to speak up and re engage when things feel unclear. From the manager perspective, we talk about how to design meetings and workflows that create alignment instead of confusion. And from the executive perspective, we discuss how visibility and clarity help teams stay connected as work scales.   Alignment is not a one time event. It is something teams have to build and maintain together.   Have questions about this topic? Want to ask for advice from our team? Have a topic suggestion? Just want to say Hello? Do it!

    Episode 258 Pit Crew Problem Solving

    This week on The People Centric Podcast, we talk about a powerful real world example of problem solving done well. A medical team brought in a Formula One pit crew to review their process, improve efficiency, and reduce errors. And it worked.   We break down why this story matters beyond healthcare. Great problem solving is not just about having the right answer. It starts with recognizing there is a problem and actually wanting to solve it. From there, it takes collaboration, curiosity, and sometimes inviting in outside perspectives that see things differently than you do.   From the employee perspective, we talk about speaking up when something is not working. From the manager perspective, we discuss creating space for collaboration and new ideas. And from the executive perspective, we explore why fresh insights and outside help can be a strength, not a weakness.   Better problem solving is possible when people are willing to look honestly at their work and stay open to learning from others.   Have questions about this topic?

    Episode 257 Receiving Feedback

    This week on The People Centric Podcast, we focus on something we do not talk about enough at work: how to receive feedback well.   We spend a lot of time teaching people how to give feedback, but receiving it can be just as hard. We talk about why feedback often feels uncomfortable, what happens when emotions take over, and why even well meant feedback can be tough to hear.   From the employee perspective, we explore how to stay open instead of getting defensive. From the manager perspective, we talk about how to help people process feedback and grow from it. And from the executive perspective, we discuss how healthy feedback habits shape culture over time.   Feedback does not have to shut you down. When handled well, it can help you learn, grow, and show up stronger at work.   Have questions about this topic? Want to ask for advice from our team? Have a topic suggestion? Just want to say Hello?

    Episode 256 Doing Less On Purpose

    This week on The People Centric Podcast, we talk about taking stock before setting goals for 2026. Before you rush into new plans, it can help to pause and look at what is working, what is not, and what you are carrying that you do not need anymore. We lean into a simple idea: sometimes the best next step is not adding more. It is subtracting. Letting go of the goals, habits, meetings, projects, or expectations that are draining energy or no longer fit. From the employee perspective, we talk about how to reflect without beating yourself up and how to make space for what matters. From the manager perspective, we discuss how to help your team reset priorities and reduce overload. And from the executive perspective, we explore what it looks like to focus the organization by choosing what not to do. If you want 2026 to feel clearer and more doable, this episode is a great place to start. Have questions about this topic? Want to ask for advice from our team? Have a topic suggestion?

    Episode 255 Becoming People Centric

    This week on The People Centric Podcast, we talk about what it really means to be People Centric. We break down how to build workplaces that are healthier, happier, aligned, and empowered — not by adding more programs or slogans, but by understanding what people actually need and what organizations actually need. We look at the four things people want in order to thrive: purpose, community, autonomy, and development. Then we talk about the four things organizations rely on to succeed: strategy, communication, execution, and management. The magic happens when these two sides meet. When people have what they need, the organization gets what it needs. We explore how to close that gap, how to define culture in real terms, and how to build workplaces where both the people and the business can grow. Have questions about this topic?

    Episode 254 Finishing the Year Strong

    This week on The People Centric Podcast, we talk about how to wrap up a strategic plan as the year winds down and how to move into next year with clarity and confidence. We look at real workplace questions like: What happens when a goal changes When it makes sense to adjust a goal When you should keep pushing And what to do if you made progress but did not finish We also talk about why celebrating wins along the way matters just as much as hitting the final mark. A goal is not a pass or fail grade. It is a direction. And the year is not over yet, so you do not have to give up on your goals. Whether you are an employee trying to finish strong, a manager helping people stay focused, or an executive thinking about next years plan, we unpack how to keep momentum going while still being honest about what shifted and why.

    Episode 253 Building Problem Solvers

    This week on The People Centric Podcast, we dig into problem solving and why people approach it so differently. Some of us love to brainstorm out loud. Some of us want to listen first. Some jump in fast. Others need time to think.   We talk about how leaders can develop their teams to either bring problems, bring solutions, or bring both in a healthy and useful way. Then we break down how our communication styles show up when we face challenges.   From the Whiteboarders who think best by talking through ideas, to the Empathizers who focus on people first, to the Go Getters who drive action, to the Outliners who want to build a plan step by step, every style has strengths. And every style can create friction if we are not aware of how we problem solve.   We explore how to use these differences to build better conversations, better solutions, and better workplaces.   Have questions about this topic?
