Episode description

How does a manager adjust to the multiple personalities on their teams [or on other teams] ... particularly disagreeable personalities?

Our guest Rob Willis suggests it begins first with knowing one's self; second successfully "reading the room" to assess the value each person brings to a situation; and thirdly leveraging those varied values for the benefit of any task at hand.

Rob's story of successfully working with someone who sees the world differently than him [in this case a "glass half full personality"] is a highlight of the interview.
