Just recently, Cali and Jody were interviewed by Gary Cohen, a Leadership Coach for executive coaching firm CO2 Partners. CO2 Partners is a group of experienced, entrepreneurial-minded executive coaches with complementary skills and a shared passion for elevating others in their leadership journey. Gary is upbeat, highly knowledgeable of the demand for organizational leadership to better connect with and motivate the workforce, and C&J truly enjoyed this opportunity.

An excerpt:

Gary Cohen: Is there something in the timing of human development and this mix of generations (Boomers, X, & Y) that makes ROWE work today or would this always have worked?

Cali & Jody: Interesting question! The ROWE mindset would always have worked. We actually heard from a ROWE fan with a point of view that ROWE has always existed. Thousands of years ago, people had to figure out the most efficient ways to reach their outcome – eating. That’s ROWE. If you have to find food to stay alive, you’re probably not going to spend your time chatting with the people around you. That’s ROWE. The mix of generations just provides the perfect scenario for the benefits of ROWE to be experienced. It could be easy for Boomers and Traditionalists to dictate to X and Y how they need to approach work. However, that severely undermines efficiency and holds organizations back from what they could be producing.
