This week on the Evolving Leader podcast, co-hosts Jean Gomes and Scott Allender talk to Ron Carucci, experienced strategy, organization and leadership transformation expert, co-founder and managing partner at leadership consultancy Navalent and author of eight bestselling books.

To Be Honest: Lead with the Power of Truth, Justice and Purpose (Kogan Page, 2021)

 

0.00 Introduction

3.04 Can you give us an overview of your approach to helping grow and develop leaders?

4.47 You talk about the language you use at Navalent, specifically within, between and among. Can you give us some context or an example of what it looks like to go in and raise awareness around those three components? 

7.39 In a situation where people are deeply embedded, but when forced to change both the individual and organisation find themselves facing a crisis as they are out of step with the market reality, what’s your learning from that situation?

12.56 What’s the biggest trap that you find yourself in that might actually reinforce the problem?

14.58 In your 2014 book ‘Rising To Power’, you state that 50% of leaders rising up to new formal levels of influence within the organisation fail within 18 months. From your perspective, why is this and what can someone do to avoid becoming part of that statistic?

21.31 In your latest book ‘To be honest’, you identify four factors that have a profound impact on honesty, justice and purpose within an organisation. However if these factors are missing or are dysfunctional, the organisational conditions compel employees to choose dishonesty and self-interest. Can you unpack that for us?

28.41 What’s the delta between organisations that think they have these attributes and are living them versus organisations that actually do have them?

33.55 You’ve referenced your research in neuroscience, and both Scott and I are particularly interested in the science of mindset and self-awareness. What have you learnt that’s changed your thinking in recent years?

36.47 What’s your next big project?

40.19 Who has inspired you as a leader or organisation?
