Human Centered Leadership In Action: Asking Questions To Connect With Your Associates’ Inspiration At MedStar Health, we are focusing on building Human Centered Leaders. Over the coming weeks, I’ll define what Human Centered Leadership means, share a related podcast, book, or article, and one action you can take this week to become a more Human Centered Leader. This week we’ll focus on authenticity and asking questions to build connection. Human Centered Leadership is defined as leaders who demonstrate authenticity, empathy, and adaptability, with the impact being increased engagement, retention, and a sense of belonging so that all can thrive. Recently I listened to a podcast called “The Business of Learning” from trainingindustry.com, featuring Ryan Jenkins, author of the books “Connectable” and “The Generation Z Guidebook”.  During that interview he shared Generation Z was 79% more likely to say they feel sometimes or always disconnected at work, which is twice as much as older generations. As leaders, it is hard to imagine that the most technologically connected generation may feel disconnected and lonely. Human Centered Leaders build relationships through authentic connection – not just one way communication, such as texts or emails. Each person on your team is unique, with their own story. Asking a question about what inspires them at work can give you greater insight into them, and in turn, demonstrate you value them and build connection. Use one of these questions this week as an icebreaker or during a 1x1: ·        What, or whom, inspires you most at work? Why? ·        Why were you originally attracted to the work you are now doing? How has that changed/stayed the same? ·        What is the one thing you’d like to be known for at work? The Business of Learning, Episode 74: Leading and Working Across Generations can be found on https://lnkd.in/e3fibjb5, as well as Apple iTunes Podcasts, Google Play, and Spotify.  #MedStarHealth #HumanCenteredLeadership #GenerationZ #LeadershipDevelopment #HumanResources

Why am I in #HR? Because I find people… fascinating... The first personality profile assessment I was certified on is DiSC and last month Adam White, M.Ed., CPTD came to our team meeting for a DiSC team building training to help us for the new fiscal year. Let's build off this for today's #HRThursday. In 1928, William Marston published a book entitled Emotions of Normal People, challenging stereotypes and defending many taboos. Marston viewed people behaving along two axis, with their attention being either passive or active, depending on the individual's perception of his or her environment as either favorable or antagonistic. By placing the axis at right angles, four quadrants form, with each describing a behavioral pattern: **Dominance produces activity in an antagonistic environment **Inducement produces activity in a favorable environment **Submission produces passivity in a favorable environment **Compliance produces passivity in an antagonistic environment. Martson too liked to observe people, he and his wife Elizabeth Holloway, invented an early prototype of the polygraph. He was also known as a self-help author and comic book writer who created the character Wonder Woman. Marston became convinced that women were more honest than men in certain situations and could work faster and more accurately. During his lifetime, Marston championed what he saw as the latent abilities and causes of the women of his day. The DiSC model helps us understand not only how we are naturally wired, but also how our environment can shape our behaviors - especially under stress. In our session with Adam, we learned strategies for reading others' DiSC styles and managing our own stress responses. After all, stress is a normal part of life, and we all have our own "stress behaviors." The key is recognizing those patterns and making conscious choices about how to manage them. Just as a polygraph measures our physiological arousal, the DiSC model provides a roadmap for understanding how our inner wiring interacts with external pressures. Ultimately, this self-awareness can be a powerful tool for HR professionals navigating the complex dynamics of the workplace. By understanding our own stress responses and those of the people we work with, we can build more productive, harmonious teams. As the Harvard Business Review article notes, stress can even be a positive force if we know how to harness it effectively. What are you doing to better understand your stress behavior? https://lnkd.in/egQ3NwR7

I just finished Part 2 of SHRM ‘s HonestHR podcast on the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA), and I can’t recommend it enough! Whether you’re a seasoned HR professional or a first-time manager, understanding FMLA is critical to creating a workplace that’s compliant, compassionate, and employee-centered. The podcast breaks down: ✅ Key requirements of FMLA and eligibility rules ✅ Best practices for managing leave requests ✅ Strategies for balancing business needs while supporting employees ✅ Common pitfalls that could lead to noncompliance FMLA isn’t just an HR issue—it’s a people management issue. Managers are often the first point of contact when employees request leave, and having the knowledge to navigate these conversations builds trust, prevents misunderstandings, and ensures a smoother process for everyone. If you haven’t tuned in yet, this episode is a great place to start! Knowledge is power, and in this case, it’s also compliance. #HonestHR #FMLA #PeopleManagement #HRCompliance #Leadership
