This week on the Expert Voices podcast, Randy Wootton, CEO of Maxio, speaks with Matt Tresidder, Co-founder and CEO of Leadr, a software company dedicated to enhancing personal and professional development. He is also the author of the thought-provoking book, "Management is Dead: There's a Better Way."

Quotes

"I like the sales analogy of moving from an IC to a manager because I think it's quite binary. People understand the act of selling, the act of managing, but it's apples and oranges. It literally is apples and oranges to say that someone's really good at selling and then say that they're just magically going to be able to teach someone else how to do it. It's not the same thing” -Matt Tresidder [04:08]

“NPS is a very quantitative example. So, we have a pulse survey tool built within our platform called Leadr Insights, and it's literally doing what you just did. So, it's sending out a pulse survey anonymously to all your employees every single month. That allows me to stack rank the health of my managers based on what the employees would rate their experience at the company being.” -Matt Tresidder [27:59]
