Episode notes

I think recognition is important to consider ano. Recognition, not just that you did this thing, but the way t you did the thing. Even if it's a am a more junior member of the team, you still allow them to take on the ownership for that key result. And so they might orchestrate, or be the ones who do a lot of following up. That can give them a sense of ownership that's really interesting.

For any team to work efficiently and well, ownership is important. As a leader, how do you motivate your team intrinsically?

Kevan Lee, is the VP of Marketing at Oyster, with previous experience as the VP of Marketing at Buffer and Interim Head of Marketing at Polly.

In today’s episode, Kevan shares why he uses intrinsic motivation with his team and how he offers feedback to encourage more positive behaviour.

We also talk about how parenting philosophy can be tied into management and why asking questions, rather than direct decision-making, often leads to the same conclusion but with more team growth.

Tune in to hear why Kevan uses a lighter-weight approach to decision-making and how he tries to reduce the number of stakeholders for a more efficient process.
