Key Takeaways:
- A life strategy, rooted in foundational principles, can profoundly shape not only business outcomes but also the arc of one's entire life.
- Angela's personal narrative demonstrates a progression from familial expectations to thriving in executive roles, which illuminates the blending of confidence and doubt as crucial elements of her journey.
- Reflecting on leadership, the shift from traditional, authoritative styles to approaches marked by empathy underscores the values that contemporary HR leaders should embody.
- The 'not now' card system fosters an environment where transparent communication and effective project flow are prioritized, benefiting team dynamics.
- Embracing the 'platinum rule' may revolutionize organizational success, potentially surpassing the outcomes of the well-known 'golden rule' by cultivating a deeper investment in the well-being and development of people.
“Leadership is a first principle. Organizations can't achieve their goals whether it's grabbing market share, improving margins, or getting great customer feedback without truly investing in their people. Leaders need to know how to take care of them.”
- Angela Cheng-Cimini
