Paved With Good Intentions
I've worked at Apple and Amazon Web Services, as well as start ups here in Sydney, Australia. With nearly 20 years experience managing and growing organizations, I've learned that there's good, bad and ugly lessons to be learned -- and that the way to hell is paved with good intentions! I want to share my experiences and observations with you to help you on this journey.

Episode 5
Social Style is a typology framework that describes the four archetypal personalities in the workplace: driver, analytical, expressive and amiable. Learning about Social Style helped me identify weaknesses in my own leadership style and provided my colleagues and I with a language and understanding to improve our interactions. It's also quite powerful in a performance management scenario by allowing you to drive separation between the individual and the behavior as a factor of their social style.
This episode is based on an article I wrote here:
