"There are no exceptions"

PodcastWe all know that we should get feedback on our job performance - both on what we do and how we do it.

Today’s lessons are from a conversation with a senior HR leader for a global medical device organization. What started as a situation of spending a lot of time and resources on an effort to manage her, it became a series of conversations on a well-known, unspoken secret of a development opportunity.

Take a listen as Joellyn talks about all the effort that went into "managing" her, rather than the simple, direct statement that should have been stated. (15:00)

Lessons Learned:

  • There are no exceptions - The hierarchy exists.
  • Be in the moment - What's happening right now?
  • Be direct - Why is this conversation so different?
  • Be a peer - You have been in the same spot.
  • Multiple conversations - Take the risk to raise it again.

About Courageous Conversations

Kudos

  • "Tim Mulvaney has been an incredible resource"
    "I know I've mentioned this in this past but wanted to reiterate once again more formally. Tim Mulvaney has been an incredible resource to the Affinity Groups. He has really ignited our initiative and he has been instrumental with helping us put together an action plan, implement it, and ensure there is a coordinated effort amongst the groups. He continuously prods us and gets on all of our busy calendars to make sure we keep moving forward. He does all of this with constant enthusiasm and a can-do attitude." Affinity Group Leader, Director, Financial Services Provider
  • "What Courageous Conversations did for me"
    I attended two of the Courageous Conversations seminars recently. Your seminars provided me with balance and the tools I needed to realize a career decision. I just wanted to thank you and to let you know this. Your seminars really helped me to think this decision through and weigh all of the possiblities. They also gave me a fundamental insight into the fact that I can engage in a courageous conversation not only with others but with myself. Thank you for helping me to muster the courage to change an unworkable situation and the courage to explore new challenges. University Employee
