In this episode, Kevin talks with Greg Hawks about the mindset shifts leaders need to make to help people act like owners by bringing more of their heart, head, and hands to work. Greg explains how his framework of owners, renters, and vandals influences behavior and why leaders must pay close attention to the environments they create. He shares how organizations unintentionally produce renters by limiting contribution, tolerating toxic behaviors, and failing to help people see the bigger picture. They also discuss why the desire for responsibility is often driven by more than money, how leaders can broaden the circle, so people think beyond their own \"room\" in the house, and why shaping a culture of trust, contribution, and shared perspective is one of the most important responsibilities any leader has.
