Leadership and Loyalty – Gil Winch: Winning with Underdogs

Have you ever watched the news or seen something online and thought, “Someone should fix that,” and then you went on with your day until the next time that subject showed up? 

What happens when that issue that bothers you in the world shows up enough that you realize that you are noticing it because you are the one who could do something about it?

Talking of ongoing workplace issues, how can we end workplace exclusion, boost your business profits, strengthen our communities, and make significant inroads toward social justice with the abundant resources we’re ignoring?

Our guest for the next two episodes is Dr. Gil Winch (Ph.D. in Psychology).

Gil is a TED.com speaker, a keynote speaker, and the founder of Call Yachol (CY), a one-of-a-kind for-profit social business staffed and managed primarily by people with disabilities. He’s also the author of Winning with Underdogs: How Hiring the Least Likely Candidates Can Spark Creativity, Improve Service, and Boost Profits for Your Business.
