Coaching and Caring for Others with Meredith Damore
Join us for a captivating conversation with Meredith DeMoore, Elevate's Senior Vice President of Organizational Effectiveness and Managing Director for Consulting for Elevate Talent. Meredith shares her remarkable journey from founding a leadership effectiveness division in a boutique healthcare executive search firm to steering strategy as a senior vice president at Concentric Health Experience. Her upbringing under the influence of her father, a hospital CEO, imbued her with a profound understanding of leadership and personal development, which she now channels into her work. She reflects on her unique ability to naturally connect people, a skill she's learned from her father, and talks about how intentional leadership became a fundamental lesson during her time at a healthcare tech startup.
Amidst the evolving landscape of the post-COVID world, Meredith underscores the transition of soft skills into essential leadership capabilities. We dive into tools like psychometric assessments that quantify these skills, stressing the importance of leaders adapting their styles to diverse team profiles. The episode also introduces Integral Theory, a comprehensive framework balancing metrics with self-awareness, encouraging leaders to maintain relational dynamics alongside organizational goals. This approach is not just a trend; it's a necessity as it helps create a common language within organizations to meet modern challenges head-on.
Our discussion would not be complete without tackling the impact of leadership in venture capital and private equity investments, especially in healthcare. Meredith brings to light the intricate dynamics of leadership effectiveness and its crucial role in investment outcomes. We also explore the SBI (Situation, Behavior, Impact) framework, a tool for leaders to engage in honest and kind feedback, pivotal for moving the middle and improving organizational performance. With staffing shortages plaguing industries like healthcare, Meredith emphasizes that comprehensive leadership development is not just beneficial but essential for organizational success. Join us as we explore these fascinating insights and strategies for enhancing leadership effectiveness in today's business world.
