Cameron Herold on Earning Respect
Welcome to 90 Second Mentor! Each week you can pause for 90 seconds and receive bite sized wisdom from notable thought leaders, curated by Dr. Mark Goulston, Mary Olson-Menzel, Evan J. Schapiro and Beverley Delay. Every Wednesday stay tuned to watch a new 90 second pearl of wisdom.
Respect in leadership has shifted from one of entitlement to something that needs to be earned.
In this week's 90 Second Mentor, I interviewed Cameron Herold, founder of the COO Alliance and former COO of 1-800-Got Junk, the second largest company in Canada. We explored how operational leaders can focus on elevating others to create their own success thus earning trust, confidence, and respect in their organization.
As Cameron says, "My job isn't to do stuff, my job is to grow people".
Where does respect fit into your leadership landscape? How are you elevating your people?
Today's good leaders realize that its not all about them, its about their people.
With great respect,
Mark, Mary, Evan, and Beverley
