You crave feedback. Your organization's culture is the key to its success. Strategic planning is essential. Your competencies should be measured and your weaknesses shored up. Leadership is a thing.These may sound like basic truths of our work lives today. But actually, they're lies. As strengths guru and bestselling author Marcus Buckingham and Cisco Leadership and Team Intelligence head Ashley Goodall show in their recent book, Nine Lies About Work: A Freethinking Leader’s Guide to the Real World, there are some big lies, distortions and faulty assumptions that we encounter every time we show up for work. Nine lies, to be exact. They cause dysfunction and frustration, ultimately resulting in workplaces that are a pale shadow of what they could be.But there are those who can get past the lies and discover what's real. These freethinking leaders recognize the power and beauty of our individual uniqueness. They know that emergent patterns are more valuable than received wisdom and that evidence is more powerful than dogma.With engaging stories and analysis, the authors reveal the essential truths that such freethinking leaders will recognize immediately: that it is the strength and cohesiveness of your team, not your company's culture, that matter most; that we should focus less on top-down planning and more on giving our people reliable, real-time intelligence; that rather than trying to align people's goals we should strive to align people's sense of purpose and meaning; that people don't want constant feedback, they want helpful attention.This is the real world of work, as it is and as it should be. Nine Lies About Work reveals the few core truths that will help you show just how good you are to those who truly rely on you.Have a money question?

Almost two million Americans will graduate this year with a bachelor’s degree, but each student will have an average student loan debt of more than $33,000. I joined CBS This Morning to offer tips on what college grads and their families need to prioritize, and how it's "dangerous" for parents to dip into their own funds to help their kids pay down debt.Have a money question?

Today on the show I’m joined by Dave Stachowiak, a long distance friend of mine (we still haven’t met in person!) and host of the popular Coaching for Leaders podcast, a show aimed at helping you discover leadership wisdom through insightful conversations. The workplace landscape is full of people wondering: What am I supposed to do to create a vision for my team?How do I get better feedback from my stakeholders?Where do I start in holding a difficult employee accountable?When's the right time to make the next move in my career?How can I successfully manage my former peers?If that describes you, there is hope, as it's a myth that leadership skills can't be learned. Almost nobody is a born leader. Most leaders learn how to lead through the school of hard knocks, good training, years of hard work, effective coaching, and great mentors.It’s no surprise that the most effective leaders have always known that investing in their leadership skills will pay off, big time. That's why many leaders have invested in coaching, executive MBA programs, and conferences.We all have the potential. Anyone can learn to lead teams, companies, non-profits, and especially their own family. Have a money question?

I'm all for owning real estate, but it's not something that makes sense in every situation. That's the discussion with Christine from New York, who with nearly $200,000 in the bank, is trying to decide if it makes sense to finally buy a home instead of being a renter. Have a money question?

Why do some leap ahead while others fall behind in our chaotic, connected age? Henry Timms, the new CEO of Lincoln Center and co-author of New Power: How Power Works in Our Hyperconnected World--and How to Make It Work for You, joins us to explain. From the rise of mega-platforms like Facebook and Uber to the unexpected emergence of movements like #MeToo, the book touches on a variety of examples and reveals what's really behind them: the rise of "new power."For most of human history, the rules of power were clear: power was something to be seized and then jealously guarded. This "old power" was out of reach for the vast majority of people. But our ubiquitous connectivity makes possible a different kind of power. "New power" is made by many. It is open, participatory, and peer-driven. The battle between old and new power is determining who governs us, how we work, and even how we think and feel. New Power shines fresh light on the cultural phenomena of our day, from #BlackLivesMatter to the Ice Bucket Challenge to Airbnb, uncovering the new power forces that made them huge. In an era increasingly shaped by new power, this book offers us a new way to understand the world, and our role in it.Have a money question?
