”People: Dare to Build an Intentional Culture” with authors Mark O’Donnell, Kelly Knight & DJ DuBe’

"Psychological safety is about creating an environment where employees feel secure enough to take risks and voice their opinions without fear." - Mark O'Donnell

"Core values are not just words on a wall; they guide hiring, firing, and all major decisions." - CJ DuBe'

"Love in business is about treating people with respect, valuing their contributions, and supporting their growth." - Kelly Knight

In my latest episode of "Joseph Jaffe is Not Famous," I had the pleasure of hosting Mark O'Donnell, Kelly Knight, and CJ DuBe', the brilliant minds behind the book People. Our conversation centered around the single most important asset you will ever have in your growing business - people - and to that end, the importance and essence of building an intentional culture within organizations that protects, nurtures, preserves and energizes your people.

Some of the key takeaways from this episode include:

1. Building an intentional culture requires courage and repetition over time through core values alignment and accountability. 
2. Visionaries and integrators play complementary roles in guiding business growth when they have good chemistry and share core values. 
3. Genuine care and concern for individuals, not just business needs, creates high psychological safety and job satisfaction. 
4. Personal and professional goals can align when the right people are in the right seats within a supportive culture that harnesses human energy effectively. 
5. Living the "EOS life" is all about doing what you love, working with people you love, making a real difference, being compensated appropriately AND having the time to pursue other passions
