WDTNN - Wanted: Leadership - Dead or Alive!

WDTNN - Wanted: Leadership - Dead or Alive!

Burns Phillips, Dustin Swayne, and Dr. Clay Phillips discuss how organizations are hungry for leadership that is unafraid and willing to make the necessary decisions to keep their organizations competitive.  There are common issues in play with some leadership that continues to stifle growth within organizations and ultimately will lead to their demise.  

In this podcast examples are offered of such organizations including a salesperson who may be holding your company hostage because of their reluctance to accept changes offered by leadership.  Changes that would digitally and organizationally transform their organizations.  Key ingredients that are vital to your organization remaining relevant in the years to come.    Additionally, suggestions are offered for possible solutions in addressing these concerns.

WDTNN - Culture Is Everything!

WDTNN - Culture Is Everything!

Burns Phillips, Dustin Swayne, and Dr. Clay Phillips discuss why Culture is Everything.  If you are a leader of an organization you need and should listen to this podcast.  Especially those leaders who are looking to make a digital or organizational transformation.  

Culture is Everything!  The difference between those organizations that will be thriving today vs. tomorrow all hinges on whether or not they have the tools necessary to address their culture on a real-time basis.  Failure to do so will put you and your organization at risk of not being relevant in the near future.  

Don't worry, there is hope!  There are many proven methods of how to combat this issue and some are discussed in this podcast.

WDTNN - Is The Skills Gap Real?

Burns Phillips, Dustin Swayne, and Dr. Clay Phillips discuss if the skills gap is real.  During this podcast we define what we think is a good definition of skills gap in today's workforce.  Why are public/private workforce partnerships complicated?  Additionally, we talk about what are the inputs into any skills gap and why business may be experiencing them.

As always we try and offer a suggestion or two on how to start addressing any skills gap that may be present.  Feel free to leave your comments and thoughts on the skills gap discussion and stay tuned for a more in depth analysis on this topic in future podcasts.
