EP 93: How to Build an A Team and How to Disrupt Yourself with Whitney Johnson

Whitney Johnson is a CEO Advisor, Thinkers50 Management Thinker and author of ‘Dare, Dream, Do’, ‘Disrupt Yourself’ and ‘Build an A-Team: Play to Their Strengths and Lead Them Up the Learning Curve’. Only 33% of people in the USA and 15% Worldwide are engaged in the workplace. We discuss how great leaders can manage their people like a portfolio, they develop their people by enabling them to learn, leap and repeat. We discuss how organisations can build an ecosystem where people will disrupt themselves in the short-term for the growth of the organisation in the long term. In this great chat, we discuss some exemplars of personal and organisational disruption. Whitney shares the principles of personal disruption which we can apply to ourselves to lead more exciting and meaningful careers and lives.
