702: Moving Past Transactional and Towards Relational, with Jonathan Raymond

Jonathan Raymond: Good Authority

Jonathan Raymond is the founder of Refound and Ren AI. He helps leaders make work a better place, one conversation at a time. He’s the author of the book Good Authority: How to Become the Leader Your Team Is Waiting for and hosts the podcast of the same name. He’s also the creator of The Accountability Dial, used by many in our community to support healthy accountability in their organizations.

With all the tools and technology we have access to, it’s so easy to fall in the trap of mostly being transactional. Yet, leadership is at its best when it elevates above the transaction and builds the broader relationship. In this conversation, Jonathan and I discuss how to make that shift.

Key Points
  • While the pandemic helped us shift in some helpful ways, it also created an environment where leaders don’t always feel safe with healthy accountability.
  • The most healthy conversations have consequences if change does not happen.
  • The primary obstacle to holding people accountable is fear. Leaders will find times when then not able to defend themselves.
  • Having access to too much detail is a recipe for micromanagement. The best feedback moves away from transitional and towards relational.
  • Find places of retreat to spend unstructured, non-transactional time.
  • Don’t let the perfect get in the way of the good. Hold people accountable for the qualities of leadership, not the outcomes.
