How to Change a Toxic Company Culture | Dr Fred Johnson and Tracy Johnson

How do you change company culture when fear, conflict avoidance and a few toxic people are holding your whole team back? Dr Fred Johnson and Tracy Johnson of Initiative One join Greg Aden to explain why the under the table issues in a leader's life always beat the over the table skills. Fred shares how addiction and brokenness in his late 30s reshaped his view of leadership, and why he now calls himself a leader with a limp.

In this conversation: - Why interviewing 20 or 30 people first gets you to the root cause, because your people usually already know the issue - How a client in upper Michigan went from the brink of losing financing to 29 times profitability in three years, with a leadership team of 10 instead of 18 - What happens to toxic people when a healthy culture takes hold, and why sideways accountability is the most powerful form of accountability - Servant leadership as giving without expectation of return, and why that builds the highest loyalty
