Jess Chapman | Welcome to the Unlocking Your People Podcast!
How do you handle the “tough people stuff” in your business?
Each one of us spent our time in school learning math, science, history, geography and other fascinating subjects. However, there’s one subject that we’re really never taught – human interaction.
There’s an assumption that, because we’re human, we’re innately capable of dealing with other humans, no matter the situation, and this is simply not true.
In this first episode of “Unlocking Your People,” Jess discusses the reasons why this fallacy has such a profound effect on businesses and their teams. She provides some background on her wide-ranging career in areas such as talent management, learning and development, employee engagement and change leadership.
Through her company, Ethree Consulting, Jess draws on her experience to help organizations build teams that are passionate about what they do and where they work.
You’ll discover powerful (and most importantly, practical) tips, strategies and processes that will help you engage your workforce to take ownership.
You’ll learn why having unmotivated employees can lead to poor performance as a company, and how you can more easily navigate difficult conversations and situations.
In upcoming episodes of this podcast series, Jess will provide you with practical advice, along with insights from experts in the field, on how you can better manage the “tough people stuff.”
Enjoy!
