Welcome to the Evolvepreneur (After Hours) Show
I am your Special Host Richard Wray
Join me today where we dig deep with our guests and get you the best concepts and strategies to fast-track your business.
My very special guest today is Robert Glazer ...
Robert Glazer, founder and Chairman of Acceleration Partners, a globally acclaimed partner marketing agency, leads a remote team of 270+ and has earned 30+ awards for the company's exceptional culture. Renowned as a #1 Wall Street Journal bestselling author, Glazer wrote books like Elevate and hosts the Elevate Podcast. He's also a TEDx speaker, known for his Friday Forward newsletter reaching 200,000+ readers weekly. Featured in Harvard Business Review and Forbes, Glazer is dedicated to sharing ideas that elevate individuals and organizations, emphasizing performance improvement and reaching full potential. Passionate about helping others, he remains committed to inspiring through various platforms.
Key Moments:
- Robert Glaser discusses how to achieve growth without burnout in organizations. Constant hypergrowth and long work hours often lead to employee burnout with little benefit.
- Building emotional, intellectual, physical, and spiritual capacity in employees is important for healthy organizational growth. This includes psychological safety, learning, well-being, and understanding values.
- Focusing on outcomes over inputs like hours worked is better for performance and sustainability. Rewarding the right behaviors and results is more effective than celebrating busywork.
- Turnover should happen quickly for underperforming employees based on objective data, not prolonged hoping they improve. It's kinder to the individual and team to acknowledge a misfit.
- The past decade of easy money and unpredictable shifts from COVID, inflation, etc. have exhausted many. Stability may allow for improved planning and performance in 2023.
- Authentic communication of values and policies helps employees understand fit rather than trying to please everyone. Hybrid, remote, and in-person models require clarity.
- Hiring the "brilliant jerk" who gets results but undermines culture ultimately defines an organization's compromised values. Both culture and performance are important.
- Feedback and psychological safety are needed for continuous learning and avoiding repeated mistakes. People must feel comfortable with truth-telling.
- Focusing on factors within an organization's control leads to greater accountability and improvement than externalizing blame.
- Core self-reflection on what's truly valued guides better decision-making and alignment than reacting to changes insincerely.
