Zero tolerence for disrespect in the workplace
Notes de l’épisode
In this episode the guest is Derek Kehoe, CEO and Head of Country for BNP Paribas in Ireland.
Although Derek chats with Jim and Ellen about working in financial services his philosophy and approach to management should apply to any sector.
The chat covers his career which began at a time when unemployment in Ireland was at 16%. That was one of his many sink or swim moments.
At times he was content and had no interest in moving up the career chain while at other times he set his sights on a specific role.
In one case he describes how a senior colleague went from being a sceptic about Derek's ability to mange a large team to becoming his advocate for the position.
The conversation around these moments and how he handled them is engrossing, as are Derek’s approach and thoughts on zero tolerance for disrespect in the workplace, assessing both quantity and qualitative performance evaluation, doing the right thing for clients, pushing yourself out of your comfort zone, bringing your true self to work and a view that if you take on additional responsibilities the rewards will follow.
