Stephen Shedletsky is a Leadership Speaker, Author, and Coach. He has spent years helping leaders make it safe and worth it for people to speak up. Inspired by the work of Simon Sinek, Shed became the fourth person to join his team where for more than a decade, he contributed as Chief of Staff and Head of Brand Experience, Training & Development, and headed a global team of speakers and facilitators. Shed graduated from the Richard Ivey School of Business with a focus on leadership, communication, and strategy. He also received his coaching certification from The Co-Active Training Institute.I’m not sure entirely why but I’ve been speaking up for most of my life, but not everyone speaks up and not in every situation. I have been wondering about why that is and was thrilled when I learned that Stephen Shedletsky, aka Shed, was also deeply curious about this topic, especially in the workplace. Join us in this conversation as we explore why he felt the need to write this book now, how our environment can pressure us into being unethical, and the value of transitioning to a speak-up culture.CHAPTERS00:05:27   Why this book and why now?00:08:37   The value of transitioning to a speak-up culture00:10:22   Personality versus environment00:14:07   Combatting apathy00:15:00   Low safety but high impact00:17:00   A bad pickle00:18:59   Leaders who listen 00:21:59   Environment can pressure us into being unethical00:24:45   Human attributes rather than soft skills00:29:30   Nelson Mandela on sitting in a circle and speaking last00:32:30   Advice for speaking upLINKSFor active links, visit www.clarekumar.com/podcastSimon SinekIf Your Employees Aren't Speaking Up, Blame Company Culture,  Hemant Kakkar and Subra TangiralaHemant KakkarAmy Edmonson Happy Space Podcast episode 16 - Still in Search of Excellence - with Tom PetersAlan MulallyIndra NooyiScott SonensheinNelson MandelaCraig FergusonIMAGE CREDITS (see images on Youtube video)Simon Sinek - credit Simon Sinek websiteAmy Edmonson - credit Amy Edmonson's websiteHappy Space Podcast episode 16 with Tom Peters - credit Clare KumarAlan Mulally - credit Wiki CommonsIndra Nooyi - credit LinkedInScott Sonenshein - credit LinkedInNelson Mandela - Wiki CommonsCraig Ferguson - Wiki CommonsLearn more about and follow Stephen:FacebookInstagram
