To do your best work, you need to know why organizationally and globally. Ashley Goodall is energized by thinking about the challenges of how we all do better work together. Ashley is the co-author of 9 Lies About Work with Marcus Buckingham. He and Kevin discuss some of these "lies" and why they may be uncomfortable. The theme throughout the lies is the context. When we spend too much time focusing on the system or the process, we lose the context. The meaning of our work should be evident and let your folks focus on the how. In this episode, Ashley shares his thoughts about the following lies: 1. Cascading goals. 2. People need feedback. 3. Leadership is a thing.
