042: “Win at Work & Succeed at Life” (Megan Hyatt Miller, CEO)
"It's a new day in terms of leadership." That's Megan Hyatt Miller, President and Chief Executive Officer at Michael Hyatt & Company and the co-host of the popular business podcast, Lead to Win.
During the pandemic, Megan led Michael Hyatt & Company, a leadership development firm, to exceed revenue expectations by 50% while placing an increased emphasis on her employees' mental health. At the same time, the company set a goal to increase the diversity of their staff to 30% people of color throughout the organization in 3 years, and 50% people of color in 5 years.
Why did she decide to incorporate her social priorities so deeply into her organization? (You may be surprised to learn that there's a business case for it.) And how did she do it, all while finding greater satisfaction as a wife and mother of five kids? Listen to today's episode to find out.
Megan is also the co-author of "Win at Work & Succeed at Life: 5 Principles to Free Yourself from the Cult of Overwork," a must-read as you figure out your own work/life balance.
Today's episode is brought to you by Dan Stalp and Sandler Training, your local leadership, sales, sales management training, and development firm. Thank you to Dan & the team for their support.
