Listen to the interview. Today, I'm fired up to talk about leadership - specifically, the insane power of saying "YES" way more than you say "NO."

Most HR leadership philosophies are grounded in two completely faulty assumptions — “change is hard” and “engagement drives results.” Those beliefs have inspired expensive attempts to keep change from being disruptive to employees. What these engagement programs actually do is create and reinforce feelings of victim-hood and leave employees unprepared to adapt to real changes that are necessary for the health and profitability of their enterprises.

Picture this: an employee resigns, expecting to pack up their desk and leap into a new role, only to learn theyll spend the next few months at home, still drawing a salary.
