Jim Haudan is the CEO and co-founder of Root, an organization dedicated to helping leaders engage and motivate their teams.    He is the author of The Art of Engagement, a best-selling book that focuses on bridging the gap between people and possibilities, and What Are Your Blind Spots?, which he co-authored with Root President Rich Behrens.   Jim started his business with a belief in helping leaders see what he saw—especially in terms of future possibilities and the ability to manage waves of change.   Jim explains that one of the key issues in many organizations is that employees often play strategic games outside work but don’t engage with the company’s actual strategy.    He highlights a common problem where leaders don’t fully support or believe in the strategies they co-create, especially during execution.   Also, Jim believes that current leadership practices often fail to inspire employees, and these need to be updated.   Additionally, Jim emphasizes the importance of fostering a culture of collaboration, where people can think big and contribute freely to the organization’s vision.   Website - Root Inc.  LinkedIn: Jim Haudan   Previous Episode: iam261-co-founder-and-author-passionate-about-helping-organizations-deliver-exceptional-results
