In this episode of Career Can Do, Mary Ann Faremouth chats with Ron Carucci, owner and Managing Partner of Navalent. A 2-time TEDx speaker, Ron works with CEOs and executives pursuing transformational change for their organizations. He is the bestselling author of nine books, the most recent one being selected by Bloomberg Businessweek as one of 2021’s Best Books. Ron explores how leaders can build purpose-driven companies of honesty and justice, and shares the importance of belonging.
To Be Honest: Lead with the Power of Truth, Justice and Purpose is the result of 15 years of research, Ron shares. The initial idea wasn’t a book, but a study on honesty and investigating the conditions under which people would act fairly, decently, and serve a greater purpose. The statistical models that came out of the research were so compelling, he wanted to share it.
The problem with generational differences is that we don’t see the conflict for what it is. Older and younger generations are fighting to be relevant and leave a legacy behind, and in that clash they misunderstand each other. They see each other as threats, when at the end of the day, we all want the same thing – to belong and to be respected.
