Allowing Workers to Blossom - Gary Johnson, Partner and Consultant at Monarch Pathways - a podcast by Osmosis.org

How can frontline workers become the best versions of themselves? For Gary Johnson, the answer often lies in creating a more supportive and less hierarchical work environment. In his work for the consulting firm Monarch Pathways, he’s encountered organizations where empowered employees accomplish amazing things. “What could be better than a secured dementia unit where the psychotropic use is eliminated, antidepressant use is significantly decreased, and the residents are running their own store without any staff interaction? When you allow people to blossom, it's pretty neat what they become.” As he tells host Jannah Amiel, RN in this episode of Raise the Line, Johnson has devoted his life to using his skills and talents to help people less fortunate or less privileged to level the playing field. Listen in as he shares the data that proves how beneficial it is to have staff who feel like their opinions count. “Thirty percent of employees across the country are “engaged” in their work and their organization. 70% are not. You’ve got to have something radical to change that.”
