373: How to Connect Personal Growth to Business Outcomes, with Jonathan Raymond

Jonathan Raymond: Good Authority Jonathan Raymond is the founder of Refound, where he and his team work with organizations to create a company culture based in personal growth. He’s the author of the book Good Authority: How to Become the Leader Your Team Is Waiting For. Key Points People often separate their career goals from the personal development goals, and it doesn’t have to be that way. Leaders often have a quick chat and then leave the conversation without actually making any deep connections. We often don’t ask a question and leave it enough time to breathe. Employees get lots of feedback, but it’s often not helpful feedback. Think about feedback as a diagnostic tool. Leaders no longer need to be the problem solvers — they need to help make space for others to solve problems. Employees are looking for emotional transparency.
