Join us this week on the LeadCulture Podcast as we share some incredible wisdom from Jordan Montgomery, the brilliant mind behind 'The Art of Encouragement.' He’s really opened my eyes to how fundamental encouragement is—not just for boosting results, but for truly nurturing character. Jordan argues that when we make people feel genuinely seen and known, it ignites a profound impact on both individuals and teams.Through his personal stories, Jordan shows us the tangible difference authentic encouragement can make. He also gives us practical advice for overcoming that tricky perception of inauthenticity, which can sometimes get in the way. This isn’t just about being nice; it’s about creating a culture where people feel valued and appreciated.One of the standout points Jordan makes is about the disconnect between what leaders think they need to focus on—like finance and tech—and what their teams actually crave—like clear communication and emotional intelligence. Especially as we consider the needs of younger leaders who thrive on instant feedback, it’s clear that encouragement isn't just a nice-to-have. It’s crucial for enhancing well-being and productivity.Jordan’s message is crystal clear: to elevate our leadership, we must be generous, kind, and incredibly intentional in our interactions. Let’s embrace the art of encouragement and watch how it transforms our teams and organizations!We need your help to get the LeadCulture podcasts in front of more leaders!
