Our guest is Billy Ray Taylor, CEO of LinkedXL and author of The Winning Link.
He joins us to chat about how the physical presence and actions of the leader outweigh material gifts or billboard slogans in establishing meaningful connections with any workforce.
In his journey from the factory floor to the executive suite then business owner, Billy Ray discovered critical culture tenants built on helping all employees feel a strong sense of belonging, commitment to the company, and job accountability/ ownership – all elements of a healthy culture!
Billy Ray discusses his experience as a young leader when he struggled to implement cultural change – attempting to make changes “to the people, not with the people.”
He learned quickly that providing the reasons for change with structure, clarity, specificity, next steps and continuously requesting feedback from staff – changes occurred “with people;” employees felt empowered to help facilitate critical next steps.
Tune in to discover the secrets behind creating a workplace where employees don’t just show up — they belong and help implement change.
