The Me1st Method with Michael Palanski — Hands-On Leadership Development for New Roles and Big Challenges
Today, I’m discussing a research-based method for hands-on leadership development with Dr. Michael Palanski, a social scientist and Professor of Management in the Saunders College of Business at Rochester Institute of Technology in Rochester, NY. Michael is an active researcher in the area of leader development and business ethics and teaches classes in leadership, business ethics, and cross-cultural management.
We talk about his book, The Me1st Method: Hands-On Leadership Development for New Roles and Big Challenges.
The conversation covers:
- How this book helps “Next Big Challenge Leaders” (those taking on new roles and big challenges)
- Does focusing on self first mean being self-centered?
- The hurdles Next Big Challenge leaders are facing
- “From face to embrace”
- Should leaders “go it alone?”
- Avoiding the appeal of the quick fix
- Your Personal Leadership Purpose Statement and how that connects to organizational change
- Engaging one’s team
