Paul Hillen (right) and I rehearsed last week on the gorgeous stage at Providence Academy – that’s where TPT will film our keynote about “How Goodness Pays.”<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This Thursday, Paul Hillen and I are providing the inspirational keynote address for a thought-leader series called: Pancakes at Providence<\/a>. It’s a regular series where thought-leaders speak to the families and friends of the high school students at Providence Academy in Plymouth, MN. It’s a very prestigious opportunity, and our very first keynote about the How Goodness Pays<\/em> book<\/a> together. We’re both excited, nervous, and curious about how we will share the stage.<\/p>\n

My job is to start the conversation about \u201cgoodness.\u201d It’s not a word we hear very often in the business world. And the best place to start is with the most basic question: Why talk about goodness now? <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"
The steady stream of \u201cfake news,\u201d political bickering, and the increasing number of stories about crimes and wrongdoing is contributing to The Dark Noise.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

First, it\u2019s because of the constant swirl of negativity we call The Dark Noise<\/strong><\/a>. You know, it’s the steady stream of \u201cfake news,\u201d political bickering, and the increasing number of stories about crimes and wrongdoing. It stems from the fact that we are losing trust in the four major \u201cinstitutions\u201d that have historically knit us together: Government<\/strong>, Big Business,<\/strong> Organized Religion<\/strong>, and the Media.\u00a0<\/strong>The result of all of this is a consuming wave of negativity <\/strong>that leaves us yearning for something better, and brighter.<\/p>\n

Second, even the youngest people in the room today feel the accelerating<\/em><\/strong> speed of change<\/em><\/strong> in their lives\u2026it\u2019s enough to make us all dizzy.<\/p>\n

Third, the Dark Noise and Speed of Change contribute to a cultural avalanche of Short-term thinking:<\/strong>\u00a0its easy to understand how we\u2019re feeling squeezed<\/strong> by all of the forces converging in our lives.<\/p>\n

\"\"
The accelerating pace of change is enough to make us dizzy.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

As one of the \u201colder people\u201d in the room, I remember the days when we worked on deadlines that were two or three weeks away, then somewhere along the line it reduced to two or three days. Now it seems like everything is two or three minutes.<\/p>\n

So, why talk about goodness\u2026and why now? In the context of all the negativity, more and more people are counting on their workplace \u2013 specifically businesses \u2013 to become a source of positivity. And we\u2019re yearning for leaders who can be a source of moral\/ethical strength in our lives. We expect our businesses to do good, because we need more goodness around us.<\/p>\n

So, the title of this talk is \u201cHow Goodness Pays.\u201d It’s reasonable that you might be thinking \u201cgoodness\u201d and \u201cpays\u201d are conflicting ideas.<\/p>\n

What makes our speech interesting is that although Hillen and I both represent business leadership \u2013 my orientation is to think about goodness<\/strong> first: doing good things without expecting anything in return. And Hillen’s orientation is to focus on pays<\/strong> \u2013 which is getting a return for something you\u2019ve done.<\/p>\n

\"\"
Many of us are feeling squeezed by short-term thinking, and the convergence of our obligations.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

What we learned together <\/em>is these ideas CAN, and DO coexist \u2013 our early research found that 4 out of 5 leaders do believe: Goodness Pays. <\/em>The problem is\u2026only 2 out of 5 of those same leaders are happy with the consistency of their financial results \u2013 they just don\u2019t know HOW to make goodness pay.<\/p>\n

So, we’re rehearsing day and night because we hired a Twin Cities Public Television crew to film the event and produce a documentary-style video. That’s a lot of pressure. And that’s why we are rehearsing, and rehearsing, and rehearsing.<\/p>\n

Good leaders recognize important moments in their lives when they need to be well-rehearsed and confident. And they trust their partners to bring out the best in themselves.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
