How to Out-behave the Competition with Dov Seidman

It once wasn’t uncommon to hear a boss tell their employees “just get it done. I don’t care how.” However, in the last decade, organizations have evolved. Now, we often hear leaders priding themselves on encouraging their employees to speak up. But, what if leaders created environments and cultures in which it didn’t take an act of courage for employees to speak their minds? In this episode, we explore how leaders can create a framework and playbook for moral leadership at their organizations that allows employees to out-behave and consequently out-perform the competition.

Not Business as Usual

Today, due in large part to favourable lending regulations, small businesses account for more than half of America’s private sector. At their best, our institutions, regulatory frameworks and organisational cultures have created enormous certainty. This environment of trust has served as a solid floor on which to launch ideas, companies and collaborations. Great American projects have always benefited businesses in the US; after all, DuPont, the Delaware chemicals company, made 24 of the 25 elements in Neil Armstrong’s spacesuit.

HOW Matters More Than Ever

When HOW was first published in 2007, I argued in the book that we were entering the Era of Behavior. Now HOW has been re-published by John Wiley & Sons in an expanded edition and over the last four years it has become clear that we haven’t just entered the Era of Behavior. We’ve plunged way deep in it. Our behavior matters even more than I thought when I first wrote the book, and in ways I never imagined.

Welcome to the Era of Behavior

Not so long ago, we lived in a world where “externalities” were not our problem. The societal problems created by the operations of our large businesses lived “over there” — across the world, in someone else’s backyard, or in a supplier’s business. In a recent HBR piece, Chris Meyer and Julia Kirby tell us that’s no longer true, now that we live in an “age of transparency.” Internet-age technology has made our operations hyper-connected and hyper-visible, and now interested parties can easily see causes and effects — and easily tell others all over the world about what they see.
