    Using Your Power for Good with Ginni Rometty

    Meet Ginni:   Fifty years ago, Ginni Rometty’s father walked out of her life, leaving behind her mother and her younger siblings to fend for themselves. As Ginni watched her mom slowly move up in the workforce, she learned the difference between access and aptitude - a lesson she has taken with her through her incredible career.   Three years ago, Ginni retired as IBM's president, chairman, and CEO. Today, she co-chairs OneTen foundation, an organization that aims to close the opportunity gap for Black talent and others who do not have a four-year degree. At one point in her life, she was the most powerful person at one of the world’s largest companies. At another, she was almost powerless. That life story has made her think deeply about the dynamics in the world around her. She has even written a book about them called Good Power, which takes the reader through who has clout, who needs it, and perhaps most importantly, how to do the most good with it.    In this episode, host Gautam Mukunda speaks with Ginni about what “good power” looks like in action, the power of a good attitude, listening with the intent to learn and the value in finding what you are in service of.   Timestamps:   [:30] You define who you are  [3:30] Good power [8:00] Attitude [13:40] Being prepared gave me confidence [17:10] Appealing to the heart and mind   Good Power: Leading Positive Change in Our Lives, Work, and World, by Ginni Rometty   Barking Up the Wrong Tree: The Surprising Science Behind Why Everything You Know About Success Is (Mostly) Wrong, by Eric Barker   Give and Take: Why Helping Others Drives Our Success, by Adam Grant   Follow @GMukunda on Twitter or email us at WorldReimagined@nasdaq.com.   For more information on this episode’s guest please visit: Nasdaq.com/world-reimagined-podcast

    How to Out-behave the Competition with Dov Seidman

    It once wasn’t uncommon to hear a boss tell their employees “just get it done. I don’t care how.” However, in the last decade, organizations have evolved. Now, we often hear leaders priding themselves on encouraging their employees to speak up.    But, what if leaders created environments and cultures in which it didn’t take an act of courage for employees to speak their minds?  In this episode, we explore how leaders can create a framework and playbook for moral leadership at their organizations that allows employees to out-behave and consequently out-perform the competition.    Meet Dov:   Dov Seidman is the founder and chairman of LRN, an ethics compliance training firm, as well as the founder and chairman of The HOW Institute for Society, which is dedicated to infusing ethics into corporate culture. He is also the author of the bestselling book “HOW: Why HOW We Do Anything Means Everything.”   In this episode, host Gautam Mukunda speaks with Dov about the framework for moral leadership and why organizations benefit from building a do-it-right culture.    Timestamps:   [1:05] Business is Human Endeavor   [6:00] Employees Want Moral Leadership   [10:30] Your Reputation Precedes You   [14:20] Showing up    Resources Referenced:   HOW: Why HOW We Do Anything Means Everything, by Dov Seidman   Follow @GMukunda on Twitter or email us at WorldReimagined@nasdaq.com.   For more information on this episode’s guest please visit: Nasdaq.com/world-reimagined-podcast

The more time we take, usually, the more accuracy we're going to accrue. The less time we take, the less accuracy we're going to accrue.” — Annie Duke, Author of Quit: The Power of Knowing When to Walk Away, Decision Strategist and Former Professional Poker Player   Follow @GMukunda on Twitter or email us at WorldReimagined@nasdaq.com   For more information on this episode’s guest please visit: Nasdaq.com/world-reimagined-podcast
