How to lead through the economy: An in-depth conversation with Chad G. Hattrup, PhD. Founder, CEO Pathwise Management
Chad Hattrup
Welcome to a Leadership Channel podcast with Peter Clayton reporting. Companies, like people, often resort to fear based behavior under
significant stress — including waning motivation and stymied innovation
when it is needed most. However, there is a strategic opportunity for
informed executives to differentiate their companies and seize market
share by not acting in this way. Joining us from Pathwise Management is Chad Hattrup, to discuss how tolearn an important technique to dramatically enhance your ability to stimulate enthusiasm and high performance during difficult economic times.
Chad offers great advice on how to use the higher part of the brain to eliminate a lot of the irrational bad decision making and psychological destruction that adds jet fuel to the economic issues facing our lives and our businesses.
Hat tip to my good friend Heather Hamilton, who introduced me to Chad, and Pathwise. Coincidentally, Heather recently blogged about her experiences as part of a Pathwise group.
