Chapter 3. Manage to Engage. Building street cred.

In this episode our hosts discuss Pamela Hackett's book Manage to Engage, and discuss how Hackett advocates for a new approach to management that prioritizes employee engagement over traditional command-and-control methods. Hackett uses Lady Gaga's intensely engaged fanbase as a model, contrasting it with the ineffective "flying monkeys" tactic of intimidation. Our hosts discuss how Hackett proposes fostering a culture of volunteerism and mutual respect, achieved through improved leadership behaviors, clear communication, and a focus on employee well-being. Specific strategies are suggested, including regular check-ins and the development of a supportive work environment. The ultimate goal is to create a thriving work ecosystem where employees feel valued, contributing to remarkable results.You can learn from the Book published by Wiley: In this chapter we explore what going HeadsUp really means and how it applies to everyone.
