Seen, Heard, and Understood, with Aaron Streeton

40% Better - Engineering Leadership

About
There are only three things people want: to be seen, heard, and understood.

Bill listens to wisdom from Aaron Streeton, an operations consultant and executive coach who was running 13 schools in Japan at 27.

They dig into the difference between management and leadership, why leadership starts with understanding yourself, why an organization is an ecosystem rather than a machine, and why values that aren’t lived are worse than none at all.

Plus: “constructive intolerance,” why trust works like a piggy bank, and a grizzly bear encounter that says a lot about today’s attention spans.
