Are you demonstrating human-centered leadership? Leaders, if I asked you, what is your job, how would you answer? Would you begin by telling me all the tactical, functional things you do or would you tell me that you lead people? Human-centered leadership is about having a people first approach.
Jason (Jay) Grooms, leadership consultant and people-first advocate, joined All People Podcast to discuss human-centered leadership, empathy and people over profits. Jay explains the importance of providing a people first leadership style and how to begin leading this way. Jay talks about unconscious biases and the importance of making resumes blind. Jay shares the value of meeting employees where they are at. Jay teaches us that speaking up takes courage and that ally voices need to be as loud or louder than those fighting against marginalized groups. Jay is passionate about micro-photography (the photographing of small items), especially flowers and bees. Jay is a member of hr-4u inc. Listen to Jay to learn all about kindness, compassion, human-centered leadership, people over profits and unconscious bias.
