Episode Synopsis
In this episode, I sit with Rob DiTota, vice president of US commercial for a large medical device organization and has over 25 years of healthcare experience with 15 years of leadership experience. Rob has a unique background where you will hear him talk about his leadership experience as an officer in the fire services, as well as his leadership experience in the corporate world. I think you'll find tremendous value in hearing him talk about his thoughts on team culture and his approach to how he turned around challenged cultures into great ones.KEY TAKEAWAYSCulture is your values and behaviors. It drives the vision and mission of the organizationTo diagnose cultural issues, first ensure that everyone is on the same page with your definition of cultureTransparency and trust is critically important in building teams, building a culture, and driving performanceWhen working through tasks of turning around culture, decentralize the command. This means give your team the autonomy to make decisions on their own; to leadKeep things simple. The more complexity you add to your strategy and leadership style the higher the likelihood things don't get doneDon't be afraid to own your mistakes. You don't become a strong leader without challenges, obstacles, and failuresAct as one team!
