@Sean_CulverMBA@drharlowuno This is a great article. Most people don’t often find themselves in leadership roles by happenstance. Taking steps to join a group, task force, club will often snowball into leadership opportunities. #mavorg
Today my company announced department wide surveys will be distributed next week. Proactively finding issues, especially as they relate to culture, will continue to keep the work force happy. #mavorg
Within a week of a $1 billion dollar punitive punishment, Wells Fargo is in trouble again for not meeting fiduciary duties on customer retirement accounts. A whistleblower stepped forward to regulators thanks to the SEC protection. Wells Fargo is on a short leash. #mavorg https://t.co/6aJBWK4Shy
Exclusive: The Labor Department is probing whether Wells Fargo pushed participants in low-cost 401(k) plans into more expensive IRAs https://t.co/6TfivPCHpa
Nothing says power gap like a CEO making 1,188 times the annual salary of their typical employee. Nobody wants to work for a CEO who thinks that they are worth that much more than their employees. #mavorg https://t.co/UvvwPheUrP
At my company formal power only seems relevant until you have met another individual in person. At that point personal sources of power are what takes precedent. Expert and referral power reign superior. What and who you know matters more than tenure, which I appreciate. #mavorg
Leadership styles was what I wanted to learn most from this class. I tend to be a task oriented leader in short run projects or with groups that I likely won’t work with again. Yet I will be relationship oriented for long projects or groups that I will work with again. #mavorg
@adlagema_UNO This seems sad yet true, especially with public companies where shareholders can quickly throw leaders out. It is almost impossible to make all their stakeholders happy. Being an executive does not seem as glamorous as I once thought. #mavorg
Leaders have to quickly take responsibility for mistakes that arise. Here is a public statement with a promise for change from Starbucks. #mavorg https://t.co/xcXChbaMla
Starbucks’ CEO apologized after an employee called the police on 2 black men waiting at a Philadelphia cafe, leading to their arrest https://t.co/LSSzRdqFYc
@JacobJohnsonUNO Great article, it seems like everywhere we look everyone is drowning in work. Managers where I work are often stretched the most thin and work the longest hours. Asking for help is usually a last resort, but struggling through tough work is often when I learn the most. #mavorg
Deloitte CEO Cathy Engelbert tells us how her road to the top had many pit stops that she could never have imagined. Similar to what I hear at Union Pacific, constantly moving jobs once you have mastered them allows you to continue learning every day. #mavorg https://t.co/ZMtWELzwxu
Work groups are easy to assemble without thought, but can quickly result in reduced productivity. Leaders need to put effort into deciding if a group is necessary for a project and determining who needs to be in the group in order to see synergies. #mavorg
My employer sent out an announcement on how everyone can calculate what their 2018 tax burden will be and how to update our W-4’s to pay the right amount of taxes each pay period. I really appreciate knowing that I am now paying the right amount each month. #mavorg https://t.co/zsK47nDwVZ
The IRS is urging people to do a “paycheck checkup” to make sure they're having their employers withhold the correct amount of taxes https://t.co/ZIBrBNXaZF
@SethN_UNOMBA@WSJ I’m not sure there is going to be a way to fix the issues at Facebook, at least not in a way to appease all stakeholders. I agree, the confidence that anything will get resolved has to be waining every day. He may be hoping for the next big this to distract everyone. #mavorg
At work my boss quickly learned what I am motivated by and now infuses it into our conversations and group goals weekly. While we often wouldn’t work without extrinsic motivation, it’s intrinsic motivation that drives preformance. #mavorg
An Emotionally charged response on social media is one of quickest ways end a career. Mr. Gibson was only a few days away from locking in his position in the Maine State House. This Freudian slip kept a person most would agree is not fit to lead out of office. #mavorg https://t.co/1fTgPY4Gbi
A Republican candidate in Maine dropped out after he was excoriated for calling one Parkland shooting survivor a “skinhead lesbian” and another a “baldfaced liar" https://t.co/KEtuRzGNLr
@SethN_UNOMBA@WSJ I agree with your opinion, companies that are proactive about solving problems and have happy employees will have the upper hand. While top management is working for shareholders, they will struggle to please shareholders if employees aren’t taken care of first. #mavorg
Point of interest in the Robbins and Judge text: “diversity in work groups increases the likelihood that you will regulate your emotions” This is a theory I have never considered, but can certainly see it’s merit. When everyone “fits in” we can reduce emotional isolation. #mavorg
