Combatting the New Churn

Scott explains that we are in an unprecedented time of churn. He emphasizes the 4 D’s that exist in our country today: Distraction, Disengagement, Disconnection, and Distrust. You see it everywhere from the news and the office to thanksgiving with the family. Things have changed, and you have to understand your operational environment as a leader.

How you connect and move your people has never been more important. With the tectonic plates shifting under our feet as business leaders, we have to understand this “churn” better than everyone else to have a competitive advantage.
