Eliminating the drama-storms that run rampant in too many organizations and on too many teams is important for managers striving for a healthy working environment and great results. Here's an approach that hundreds of my clients have successfully applied to solving this challenge.

New video series for managers from Art Petty: Wake-Up Calls

On the heels of publishing my latest book, Wake-Up Calls for Managers: Insights to Sharpen Focus and Elevate Results, I’m excited to launch a new video series offering approaches and tips dedicated to the book’s focus: For the hard parts of managing no one prepares you for. Look for a new Wake-Up Call every week!

An approach to eliminating the drama-storms on Your Team?

Eliminating the drama-storms that run rampant in too many organizations and on too many teams is important for managers striving for a healthy working environment and great results. If you find yourself regularly refereeing he-said/she-said/they-didn’t type discussions, you know what I mean. Of course, eliminating these unproductive, time and morale-killing discussions is challenging.

In this less than two-minute Wake-Up Call video, I share an approach that has worked for hundreds of my clients to calm the drama-storms and dramatically strengthen the culture on their team. One senior executive worked with his leadership team to implement this approach, and they call it their Manifesto.

If you have questions or would like a facilitation guide to the Rules for Success approach outlined in the video, drop me a note at [email protected]

Enjoy, and use the Wake Up Calls series (and book) to help you think differently and take on the big challenges no one prepares you for.
