Listen now | Christian and Danny discuss "substantive" discussions, ponder Rob Mullens' recent comments, wonder about Jen Cohen and USC. Also, podcast pal Ian McFarland prompts some talk about empathy.
@Christian - Here's the HRB item you mentioned Petersen quoting: https://hbr.org/2013/03/the-ideal-praise-to-criticism. Worth noting that the following author's note has been added to it since it came out in 2013:
"*Authors’ Note: The journal that published this study has since expressed concern about the data. We first became aware of this research in Kim Cameron’s book, Positive Leadership. Like many others, we were distressed to learn of the incorrect data in the Heaphy and Losada research and we immediately ceased our citations upon learning that the study wasn’t correct. But we do believe the basic assumption and premise that leaders should provide more positive than negative feedback is correct."
Pronunciation question: am I in the minority in pronouncing substantive as sub-STEN-tiv rather than sub-STAN-tiv? I say sub-STEN-s not sub-STAN-s, so that informs my pronunciation of substantive. Based on this podcast, Christian and Danny have me outnumbered at present, and it's possible either I'm wrong or there's just more than one way to skin this cat.

It’s possible we are idiots.
Empathy
Hey Christian, weird request but as someone who prefers to consume text as opposed to audio, is there a way we can get a transcript of the podcasts?
