Leadership development training for Tech companies | ex-Meta, ex-Microsoft | Researcher & Doctoral Candidate | Keynote Speaker | McKinsey Next Generation Women Leaders

9 trillion dollars.
That’s what employee disengagement will cost the global economy 𝘰𝘯𝘭𝘺 in 2025 (Gallup, 2025).

The #1 driver?
(Spoiler, it’s not laziness!)

It’s 𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭.

But I’m not here to point fingers.

Since the pandemic, managers are being asked to do the impossible: cut costs, restructure, drive digital transformation, integrate AI, and continue generating growth for the business.

All while their teams ask for: more flexibility, well-being, purpose, and let’s not forget, psychological safety.

Most managers can’t keep up. They’re burning out and disengaging.

And since 70% of team engagement is directly tied to the manager, their teams quickly follow.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐠𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐧𝐞𝐰𝐬?

When companies invest in leadership training, manager disengagement drops.

𝐖𝐡𝐲?

- They feel more equipped to lead and face challenges,
- They’re re-motivated by the impact it has on their team,
- They see that their company cares about their well-being and

Do you tell others how to do their job?


Micromanagement isn’t leadership.

When leaders doubt their ability to lead, they compensate by controlling others.

🔬 Studies show micromanagement stems from insecurity.

What it is:
A self-protection mechanism.
 
What it 𝘤𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘭𝘺 isn’t:
A performance driver.


🔄 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐨𝐱:
Micromanagers think control increases quality.

But research shows the opposite:

↳ Teams become passive.

↳ Creativity drops.

↳ People stop thinking for themselves. 
(For the nerds, the fancy psychological term is 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬.)

↳ Decision-making slows because everyone waits for approval.

↳ People stop having ideas because every idea gets second-guessed.


Here's the thing:
Most people don’t need supervision.
They need clarity and direction.

🔁 Control → “Do it exactly like this.”
🔁 Clarity → “Here’s the goal. I trust you to figure it out. Btw, I'm here if you need help.” 

When people understand the destination, they don’t need you steering every move.

👉 Replace control with context.
👉 Replace supervision with high standards.
👉 Replace oversight with ownership.
 

Your job isn’t to control the work.
It’s to make the work clear.

High-agency people refuse to outsource their future to circumstances.

6 Science-Backed Habits to Sharpen Your Mindset:

If it costs you your mental health, it’s too expensive.


Research shows chronic stress reduces:
🔹 Creativity
🔹 Decision-making accuracy
🔹 Emotional regulation
🔹 Long-term performance

Moderate pressure sharpens your focus (Yerkes–Dodson law).

But past a certain threshold, performance drops significantly.

That’s when stress becomes damaging.

It pushes you out of your optimal performance zone and into burnout territory.

Your nervous system has limits.
Respect them.

👉 What’s one habit that protects your energy when stress ramps up?

➕ By the way, I (Corina Taban) share science-backed strategies for better thinking, stronger influence & smarter leadership.

Performance is socially contagious.
 

A-players don’t want to work with “OK” people.

They want to work with people who stretch them.

🔬 Research on thousands of employees found:

→ Sitting next to a high performer increases your performance by ~10–15%. 
→ Sitting next to a toxic / low performer decreases it by up to 30%. 


This means that who you hire and how you nurture their talent matters.

It’s about creating the conditions for 𝘦𝘹𝘤𝘦𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘴𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘥.

Because great people:
🔹 Elevate the room
🔹 Expect high standards
🔹 Crave autonomy + sharp thinking

They don’t want to:
🔻 Be micromanaged
🔻 Carry dead weight
🔻 Fight to make excellence matter


Ask yourself this:

If I brought in someone exceptional tomorrow…
Would my top talent be 𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐢𝐳𝐞𝐝? Or 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐝?

Struggling to concentrate on one task at a time?


A Microsoft study found that humans now have an 8-second attention span.

That’s shorter than a goldfish.

Depressing? Maybe.

But it’s not that simple.

Your brain 𝘸𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘴 to wander.

It drifts into thoughts, memories, and daydreams.

This is called 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐝-𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 (unoriginal, I know!), and it’s a double-edged sword:

✅ Sparks creativity
✅ Solves problems subconsciously
❌ Clouds judgment
❌ Fuels anxiety


So how do you sharpen focus when it counts?

Here are 5 science-backed attention-training tools:

🗓️ 𝐓𝐢𝐦𝐞-𝐛𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠
➝ Finish tasks before switching. Open loops drain attention.
➝ Divide your day into 4 blocks to manage momentum. If you're behind in one quarter, you can catch up in the next.

📵 𝐃𝐢𝐠𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐡𝐲𝐠𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐞
➝ Out of sight, out of mind: leave your phone in another room.
➝ Mute all but essential notifications.
➝ Close all unnecessary tabs for the task at hand.

🧘‍♀️ 𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐟𝐮𝐥𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐦𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬
➝ Just 15 minutes of meditation improves clarity.
➝ No time? Try 2 minutes of Box Breathing (Inhale 4s → Hold 4s → Exhale 4s → Hold 4s).

📄 𝐈𝐟-𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠
➝ “If I feel distracted, then I’ll pause and take a breath.”

👣 𝐌𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐬
➝ Short walks and stretches recharge your prefrontal cortex and improve sustained attention.


In a world built for distraction, focus is a superpower.

7 Japanese Habits for Gentler Living

Want higher-performing teams?
Focus on these 3 habits:


🔬 Research shows that when leaders do three simple things, trust and performance consistently go up:

1/ 𝐀𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐚 𝐜𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧
↳ People inherently search for meaning.
↳ A compelling vision creates direction, alignment, and energy.

2/ 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐬
↳ Inspiration comes from the ability to connect today’s work with tomorrow’s possibilities.
↳ When people understand why something matters, effort turns into commitment.

3/ 𝐎𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐫 𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐝𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐳𝐞𝐝 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭
↳ No one thrives under one-size-fits-all leadership.
↳ People thrive when they feel seen, understood, and supported, based on their unique needs.


These three behaviors drive:
🔹 Higher trust
🔹 Greater commitment
🔹 Better performance
🔹 More willingness to go “above and beyond”

If you want stronger results:
➝ 𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐟𝐲 the vision
➝ 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐞 effort
➝ 𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭 the individual

🔬 Study: Bass & Riggio (2006).

Are you looking to boost performance?


🔬 Gallup analysed 2.7 million employees across 96 countries.

They found that engaged teams have: 
+21% profitability 
+17% productivity 
–59% turnover

Here’s the kicker:

70% of a team’s engagement is directly tied to their manager.

Not to ping-pong tables, free coffee, offsites, or motivation apps. 

𝐖𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐧 𝐭𝐨:
✅ deliver clarity instead of micromanaging 
✅ create psychological safety instead of fear 
✅ coach instead of control

𝐓𝐞𝐚𝐦𝐬 𝐮𝐧𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐤:
🔹 higher ownership 
🔹 faster decision-making
🔹 sustainable motivation

If you want to boost performance, invest in leaders before you invest in perks.
