Don is a global expert on strategy and execution in turbulent markets. I’m so glad you’re here to hear this.īB: Before we jump into the conversation, let me introduce you a little bit to Don and Charlie. But I have to tell you this, I asked a question in the middle of the podcast, which is, “Can you define toxic culture for us?” And we dig deep into the definition of toxic culture, which is going to be published in an upcoming article by Don, and Charlie, and whoa, this is so important. It is exactly what we’re seeing in companies all over the world. Donald, and Charlie have done this incredible research into why people are leaving, what’s driving people out, what are the motivations behind the great resignation? It is both revealing and confirming to hear how their research connects with the work that we do with Dare to Lead.

Donald Sull, and Charlie Sull about an article I came across in the MIT Sloan Management Review, entitled “Toxic Culture Is Driving the Great Resignation.” So as we know, between April and September 2021 more than 24 million American employees left their jobs. This is an incredibly… I mean maybe one of the most powerful Dare to Lead episodes we’ve recorded, especially in terms of data.

Wooh, let me just tell you right now, you can listen to this podcast while you’re driving, or walking, or running, or folding socks, but you’re going to need to listen to it again, when you’ve got a pen, and a piece of paper in front of you.
