How to Lead in an Unprecedented Time – Marco Walker & Carson Heady

In an unprecedented time with a pandemic, a contentious election, social justice issues and racial divide, how do you effectively lead and #collaborate?

Award-winning former AT&T#sales leader and current national FirstKey Homes real estate leader Marco Walker, MSM joins Carson V. Heady for a special discussion.

It is paramount to create a platform for voices to be heard.

We have to get away from the #mindset that disagreement on any element means we cannot find common ground.

There is distinct need to meaningfully connect during group and 1:1 settings. The personal element elevates to the top: understand where your colleague is coming from.

Seek to understand, and show #empathy for their scenario, as they may have parenting responsibilities, stress or heavy issues on their mind.

Encourage use of company benefits, as they offer a support system.

It takes just moments to reach out and see how someone is doing and ask for a discussion.

2020 has infused a new level of humanity into work. We have to seek to understand where others are coming from, and look for ways to effectively work together toward common goals.
