Inspiring conversation today about servant leadership with Howard Behar of #starbucks legend. (I'm in the small square and he's in the big one 😀 ) He shared some great insights with a good integration of confidence and humility. For me, the entire conversation was affirming that the work I do with leaders is aligned with my values and the values of my clients. A few highlights: --the goal is to integrate the caring for people with the success of the company. It's never either/or and profits at any cost never works --when you lose your way, you find your way by reconnecting with your values, personally and professionally --always balance your communication by telling the truth and speaking from the heart #servantleadership #valuesbasedleadership #itsnotaboutthecoffee #changethenarrative
Thanks, Business Elevation, the Elevation Collective and Chris Cooper for hosting!
I love his work! I still share his book, It’s Not About the Coffee with several people. “Those who sweep the floor should choose the broom” is one of my favorite jems.
HB is the best!!!
