In this episode of THE MENTORS RADIO, Host Tom Loarie talks with Catherine Harrington, PhD Renown as an innovator in organization psychology, Dr. Catherine Harrington’s work has profoundly impacted countless lives and organizations. That said, her own journey is nothing short of extraordinary. After earning her doctorate, Catherine found her true calling in executive search and organizational psychology, helping organizations and individuals thrive together. Host Tom Loarie, in his role as CEO of a venture-funded medical startup at the time, experienced Catherine’s work first-hand and saw what a profound difference she made in his company. In a similar way to how a doctor guides a patient to health, she guided the company to organizational health through a combination of clearly understanding the company’s objective and purpose, taking the time to literally walk around, engage and listen to individual employees at all levels, and evaluating the results. Again like a doctor, Dr. Harrington then made recommendations that would improve the health of the organization. This happened over time, as she continued to observe, engage, “take the temperature” and evaluate results. Catherine’s success in implementing innovative programs that transformed the company culture were so powerful that the company achieved an employee turnover rate of 80% BELOW the Silicon Valley average! In this episode, Tom and Catherine will explore the strategies that drove these remarkable results and how Catherine’s approach to communication, culture and individual empowerment can serve as a model for any organization—from small business, family, nonprofit to large corporation. You’ll learn insights that can transform YOUR company (or nonprofit or even family) culture for lasting success. Listen to our radio podcast anywhere, any time, on any platform, click here!
