NerdWallet is an example of when the rapidly growing company missed profitability targets and subsequently changed its leadership team.

To be a human-centered leader requires compassion, empathy, and kindness for someone it’s easy to overlook. If you’re serious about becoming a more human-centered leader, it’s vital to master one specific relationship: the one with yourself. This is a leadership relationship I often overlook. It’s so easy to have compassion and grace for other people while pushing myself for more and holding myself to an unreasonable standard of perfection or achievement.

“All successful people have quit. Some, often. Knowing when to quit is essential.” — Scott Galloway We’ve all done it — staying too long at a company and then getting laid off. We get complacent — the high pay, knowing precisely what to do, having a lot of friends, getting into a comfortable routine, etc. We get LAZY. And then management comes along with an org change or a reduction in force and next thing you know, you’re updating your resume.

Most HR leadership philosophies are grounded in two completely faulty assumptions — “change is hard” and “engagement drives results.” Those beliefs have inspired expensive attempts to keep change from being disruptive to employees. What these engagement programs actually do is create and reinforce feelings of victim-hood and leave employees unprepared to adapt to real changes that are necessary for the health and profitability of their enterprises.
