Program Description:

UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT: FULL TRANSPARENCY, LESS EMAIL, NO CUBICLES, AND WHERE THE FUTURE OF WORK IS HEADED
What’s the best way to build and lead teams? Do the best companies really put their employees’ welfare first, and their clients second? Do performance reviews actually improve performance?

 

Burkus challenges many of the long-established principles of management and leadership. Drawing on decades of research, Burkus has found that not only are many of our fundamental management practices wrong and misguided, but they can be downright counter-productive. These days, the best companies are already breaking the old rules. From sharing salaries openly, to abandoning performance reviews, to putting management in the hands of the whole company, the revolutionary insights Burkus reveals are convincing companies to leave behind decades-old management practices and to implement new ways to enhance productivity and morale. Audience members will walk away with evidence-based strategies and real world examples to drive performance and build stronger teams.

 

(This keynote is based on David’s book Under New Management.) Paperback copies will be available at event for $10 payable by credit card or cash.
 
Key Takeaways:
 
  • How the nature of work has changed, and so must management
  • How to keep younger generations engaged and performing
  • How the most productive teams and organizations communicate and collaborate
