Host: Carrie Tuttle
Guest: Lindsay Harle-Kadatz
This episode goes deep on values faster than you can imagine! Lindsay Harle-Kadatz is a business consultant on brand and culture, AKA the ‘Values Vixen’. She connects leaders to their voice to guide, connect, and lead their teams to greatness through values, behaviour, and actions that matter for optimal business performance through optimally performing people. This raw and real conversation about hard topics might trigger you, and hopefully, inspire you to think about the effects on mental health for your or your team when work is misaligned with values.
Lindsay explains that values are not just marketing statements, but underlying beliefs that guide aligned action. When companies are clear and aligned among their leadership team, they can achieve higher engagement, productivity, and understanding.
QUOTE-WORTHY MOMENTS:
"Values are not just marketing statements, but underlying
beliefs that guide aligned action."
"No one's definition of a value, even if it's the same value,
is right or wrong."
“Values help individuals and teams connect to a larger purpose and make a positive impact in their work.”
