In this episode, Matthew Wride and Christian Nelson discuss the unique culture that current CEO, Mary Barra, brings to General Motors by empowering her employees with trust and autonomy.
Mary is especially known for her ability to enhance the employee experience by helping her employees to connect with her vision; that as employees of General Motors they are working for something larger than themselves. These meaningful experiences have led to higher engagement and better outcomes for the organization.
“Do every job you’re in like you’re going to do it for the rest of your life and demonstrate that ownership of it.” -Mary Barra
