Podcast 038 | Leading your Team with Kristina Pfeil2:54 “My goal is to help the clients I work with so that their people-practices are engaging andnot distracting. I don’t want them to distract them from their core business.”3:38 “That’s really where I have passion; to help those that don’t know they need the help, ordon’t have the skillset or the resources, to be able to help them run their businesses effectively.”5:08 “I would encourage any organization, as they start to embark on building their team, toask themselves three questions: 1. What are the outcomes I want this position to create? 2.What are the skills this person needs to have to achieve that? 3. What are their enduringpassions and motivations around work?”12:10 “The resume’ is just to get them in the door, just to get you interested, both as a personlooking for work and a person screening for work…then it is about getting on the phone andstarting to get a feel.”14:42 “Nowadays people are not just looking for cool products, they are looking for companiesthat line up with their needs as an employee and as a human.”15:32 “Sometimes I think we get so invested in ‘I have to fill this position’ that we hire thewrong person because we didn’t take the time to make sure our process vetted people out.”20:21 “Trust is the result of aligned expectations.”22:44 “The number one thing [to create higher engagement on work teams] is ‘Do I know whatis expected of me at work?’”24:20 “There are people who will disagree with me [when it comes to rewards at work] but Ialways say money does not drive motivation.”27:15 “I think people value time off. Can you create more opportunities to get time off?”30:09 “I don’t fire people. I make them aware of a decision they made by their failure tocomply with what was expected. And if I’ve done it right, it should never be a surprise, it shouldbe based on a series of conversations that supported that individual to know that they weren’ton track.”32:22 “Have you given this individual the respect to let them know that the way they areshowing up, that they way they are performing is off track?”36:44 “I’m all about the graceful exit. This does not have to be demoralizing or disrespectful. itcan be graceful.”36:58 “I’ve avoided a lot of sticky situations by just being respectful, and being a good listener,and creating a space for dialogue, and at the end of the day saying ‘You know, it just doesn’tseem like this is going to work.’”39:19 “I don’t have ‘or’ conversations or ‘but’ conversations in my life; I have ‘and’conversations. At the end of the day, I believe it is about this and that, and I believe both canco-exist.” Kristina M. Pfeil, MBA is a 30-year HR professional based in Seattle, Washington.
