StrategyDriven Podcasts focus on the tools and techniques executives and managers can use to improve their organization’s alignment and accountability to ultimately achieve superior results. These podcasts elaborate on the best practice and warning flag posts on the StrategyDriven website.

Special Edition 4b – An Interview with Tony Simons, author of The Integrity Dividend: Leading by the Power of Your Word, part 2 of 2 continues our exploration of the concept of behavioral integrity; the perceived pattern of alignment between a manager’s words and deeds. During our discussion, Tony Simons, author of The Integrity Dividend and Associate Professor at Cornell University where he teaches organizational behavior, negotiation, and leadership, shares with us his insights regarding:

• the manager’s dilemma, where managers find themselves in a position of having to promote a senior’s position that is seemingly misaligned with the organization’s and/or their personal values
• the impact of generational differences on realization of the integrity dividend
• the magnitude of the impact and how to recover from a perceived misalignment between a manager’s words and deeds
