FOR HOSTS AND PRODUCERS

Invite Mike on your show

Mike is an easy guest. Thirty years on the people side of business, stories your listeners will recognize from their own teams, and takeaways they can use on Monday.

Topics Mike can cover

  • What are your Drives? Self-awareness for leaders who think they already have it.
  • The mirror test: hiring people who fit the role.
  • Choosing a successor with the four filters.
  • Tribal knowledge: what walks out the door when one key person leaves.
  • Blame the standard, not the person.

Questions hosts like to ask

  • What did a three-minute readback tell you that five years of reviews never did?
  • Why do owners hire people who are just like them?
  • What is the 4 o’clock desk?
  • How do you hold people accountable when you want everyone to like you?
  • What should an owner look for in a successor besides experience?
  • How should a leader write for people who want bullet points, and people who want paragraphs?
  • What is one change a leader can make this week?

Mike McCloskey is the Founder and CEO of HumanLytics Team in Phoenix, Arizona. He helps leaders use behavioral data to hire, coach and keep great teams.
