Synopsis
The Missing Conversations will give you and your team a framework to have higher quality conversations that directly and positively impact your business.What you don&’t know can hurt you—and what you don&’t talk about can absolutely destroy your team, your organization, and your career! In The Missing Conversations, speaker and leadership coach Zach &“Dr. Z&” Schaefer cracks open the playbook he&’s used with some of America&’s best and brightest companies to reveal the critical but all-too-often overlooked conversations that can make or break an organization. Drawing on his fifteen years of experience working with high-power, hard-charging executives and team leaders, Dr. Z examines more than forty key conversations you are probably not having. You&’ll discover: The impact the leader&’s &“echo&” has on employees as it reverberates throughout the organization. How to prevent team member burnout by recognizing their accomplishments while giving them a new goal to shoot for. The power of embracing effort itself as a talent that leaders can recognize and encourage in their teams. Why so many leaders allow groupthink and the &“disease to please&” to stifle productive problem solving and constructive disagreement. How to harness conflict as a catalyst for growth through healthy confrontation. Why team members and peers often feel blindsided by feedback and constructive criticism. In this book, Dr. Z reveals how addressing the root causes of communication breakdowns—lack of awareness, avoidance, and adversity—empowers leaders to unlock their team's full potential, drive innovation, and achieve sustainable success. If you&’re ready to create a workplace where open dialogue and collaboration flourish, it&’s time to start having The Missing Conversations!
