It turns out to be a powerful metaphor to understand both positive leadership and our own contributions—and potential areas for self-development—for the organization. In this episode, author, film producer, humanitarian, serial entrepreneur, former and current CEO, lifelong learner, and constant questioner Paul Fayad teaches us how to recognize the role of positive leadership and how to use it in organizations, to focus on the rowers and the work that they accomplish in order to increase productivity and lower turnover in organizations, and to understand that personalities are stable and that changing personalities that are not a good fit with our organizations is not where our focus should be. Instead, it should be on recognizing and rewarding positive behaviors in our rowers and on moving ourselves in most cases from sitters to rowers. Based on his real-world application over many decades of the science of leadership and behaviors to his own work in industry, Paul Fayad provides tested personal and professional insights and helpful practical tips for how we can recognize and use these principles in our daily lives. \n\nFayad, P., & Lam, C., F.
