  • 266: Mafia, Ethics and High-Stakes Decisions with Tom Beener
    Nov 17 2024
    Tom Beener is a securities attorney turned author, known for his book 'It's Better to March in Circles Than Not March at All.' Growing up with a father who was both a policeman and involved in the New York mob, Tom Beener was exposed to a world of gambling and organized crime from a young age. Despite these influences, he pursued a career in law, becoming a securities attorney. His experiences have given him a deep understanding of the balance between moral integrity and ambition in business. Through his storytelling, Tom offers actionable insights into high-stakes decision-making and leadership under pressure, making his contributions to discussions on ethics in business both compelling and invaluable. GET THE BOOK: https://www.amazon.com/Better-March-Circles-Than-Not-ebook/dp/B0DDLHN2L2 KEY TAKEAWAYS: Ethics in Business: The importance of maintaining a strong moral compass in business,highlighting how ethical decision-making can impact credibility and trust. Leadership Under Pressure: The discussion explores how leadership in high-stakes situations parallels everyday management, emphasizing the need for decisive and clear communication. Leaders are advised to make decisions without over-explaining, as this can lead to unnecessary debate and controversy. Decision-Making Strategy: Tom introduces the concept of 'never complain, never explain' as a strategy for effective decision-making. This approach encourages leaders to focus on facts and outcomes rather than getting bogged down in justifications, which can lead to exposure and vulnerability. Credibility as Currency: Credibility is likened to currency, highlighting that it takes time to build but can be quickly lost through poor decisions. Maintaining credibility requires consistent ethical behavior and decision-making that aligns with organizational values. Avoiding Rule Bending: Tom warns against bending rules, as it can undermine a leader's credibility and trustworthiness. Leaders are encouraged to adhere to established codes of conduct to maintain integrity and foster a trustworthy organizational culture. "You don't dwell. The more you try to explain your actions, the more you open the door for debate." - Tom Beener #leadership #mafia #morals #conscience #businessethics #ethics #management #toughdecisions #HR #businessdecisions #business #sales #mob #highpressurejobs Connect with Manage Smarter Hosts · Website: ManageSmarter.com · LinkedIn: Audrey Strong · LinkedIn: C.
