When to Take Social Security
This week we kicked things off with Troy from Seattle who was wondering if he's being charged too much by his current advisor. Does he even need an advisor? I gotta say, this is quickly becoming a very common question on the show.
Next up was Kevin from Minnesota with the million dollar question of when is the right time to start taking Social Security? Great question, and also a very simple one to answer if you can give me one key piece of information...
If you’re working in an office environment, it’s hard to ignore the massive shift that’s taking place in the workplace. In today’s average company, up to 80% of employees’ days are now spent working in teams.
And yet the teams most people find themselves in are nowhere near as effective as they could be. They’re often divided by tensions, if not outright dissension, and dysfunctional teams drain employees’ energy, enthusiasm, and creativity.
How can we fix it? That’s where today’s episode comes into the picture, and our chat with Chester Elton, who along with Adrian Gostick, recently published The Best Team Wins: The New Science of High Performance.
Throughout the pages of their latest book, the duo share the proven ways managers can build cohesive, productive teams, despite the distractions and challenges every business is facing.
The pair studied more than 850,000 employee engagement surveys to develop their “Five Disciplines of Team Leaders,” explaining how to:
- Recognize and motivate different generations to enhance individual engagement
- Ways to promote healthy discord and spark innovation
- Techniques to unify customer focus and build bridges across functions, cultures, and distance
They’ve shared these disciplines with their corporate clients and have now distilled their breakthrough findings into a succinct, engaging guide for business leaders everywhere.
Throughout the pages you’ll find practical ways to address the real challenges today’s managers are facing, such as the rise of millennials, the growing number of global and virtual teams, and the friction created by working cross-functionally.
