Dr. Kathy Cramer is the author of Lead Positive: What Highly Effective Leaders See, Say, and Do. A psychologist by training, she created and has dedicated her life to asset-based thinking (ABT), a way of looking at the world that helps leaders, influencers, and their teams make small shifts in thinking to produce extraordinary impact. As a business consultant, she has worked with clients such as DuPont, Prudential Real Estate, Starbucks, and Microsoft, as well as many educational and nonprofit organizations. In this interview, we discuss the importance of thinking positive…and why that’s more than just blinded optimism.
