KEY TAKEAWAYS: Being good at change is a meta-skill that has a trickle-down effect on everything else. Get better at managing and creating change. Questions are one of the most helpful tools we have as leaders and people. If we get better at asking provocative questions, we change our trajectory. There is deep connectivity between nourishment and performance. It will take a business culture change that we need to do “whatever it takes” sacrificing our health and nourishment to actually create the results we are looking for. The science is there; business culture needs to catch up. There are clear answers out there and available. It’s about connecting with the people and beliefs that there is a connection and can teach it. Look to thought leaders that explore the topics. Dig in and question your assumptions and look at the work from: Raj Sisodia, Fred Kaufman, Amy Edmonson, Lisa Duerre, Google Research Project - Aristotle. People are looking for a different workplace environment, and this is a critical time to be asking the question about performance and nourishment as a business leader. People don’t like change or loss because people want consistency and predictability because it answers the question, “Am I safe?” and when we experience change, it disrupts our answer to “Am I safe?” Stay Connected: Michael’s LinkedIn: ⁠ https://www.linkedin.com/in/mdiettrichchastain/⁠ Michael’s Website: ⁠www.arcintegrated.com⁠ Learn More About Changes Card Deck + Book: ⁠https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B084VRYBDB/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1⁠ RLD Group’s website: ⁠https://rldgroupllc.com⁠ RLD Group’s LinkedIn: ⁠ https://www.linkedin.com/company/rldgroupllc⁠ RLD Group on Twitter: ⁠ https://twitter.com/rldgroupllc ⁠ Lisa Duerre on LinkedIn: ⁠ https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisaduerre/ ⁠ Ctrl+Alt+Delete with Lisa Duerre™ on YouTube: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/@realtalkwithlisa⁠…
