Key Takeaways:
- Sitting in the “Ick”: Leaders are encouraged to actively listen without the pressure to solve immediately. This helps them to fully understand issues and build trust.
- Quantitative + Qualitative Insights: The blend of hard data and human stories helps organizations make better, empathetic decisions that address the real needs of employees.
- Redefining Productivity: Meghan and Sam distinguish between individual task productivity (“little p”) and organizational progress (“big P”), which is often the real focus of leadership.
