Koffee with Kayla

Welcome to the Leadership Unveiled Podcast! Today is Day 1 of The 12 Days of Leadership!    You can view the podcast on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/@kaylafaheyahrndt or on any podcast app.  Please subscribe so you get notified when new episodes drop!   From December 1st through December 12th, we'll be exploring career, leadership, planning, and organization tips. I'll be providing tools, templates, strategy, and mindset to help you elevate your professional or leadership experience.    I did a poll on my Instagram (@KFAconsulting), and most of you wanted tips related to organizing your work (projects, to do's, email, etc.) and help figuring out what's holding you back from success. We'll explore all of that this week.   After our 12 days together, you will still have access to this content. You will essentially have a mini course on leadership for free. There will be a YouTube Playlist (https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLE599b_6Zh1UgWs5Jt96W_XtjvCt1sP4k) as well as a page on my website dedicated to these lessons in case you miss any in real time or you want to go back and revisit and specific topic.   Today, I'm reacting to this article -- "15 Leadership Lessons These Leaders Wish They Had Learned Sooner" https://www.forbes.com/sites/forbescoachescouncil/2021/11/02/15-leadership-lessons-these-leaders-wish-they-had-learned-sooner/?sh=534a213377bf CONNECT WITH KAYLA:

High performing leaders need more than strategy in their back pocket. They need three key focus areas that allow them to personally develop and improve their mindset, set clear expectations and boundaries, and utilize standard tools and templates to set strategy. In today's episode, I dive into each focus area in depth as well as share how each area will improve different aspects of your wellbeing and success as a leader.

What do you think of when you hear the word "productivity?" For many, productivity gets a bad reputation. It just sounds "icky." It's a buzz word we all use to promote our hustle culture. There's a time and place for hustle, but I'm here to share that the hustle (except for my favorite 70's disco) is not sustainable long term. So instead, I've recently started to talk about "healthy productivity." In today's episode, I'm defining "healthy productivity" and sharing what it feels like. No bad reputation here! (And with that, I'm now listening to Taylor Swift's Reputation album...love.). Healthy Productivity looks and feels like... Not feeling addicted to working Accomplishing your intentional focus The tasks you did move your work forward so you know it was the right intention (even if it fails or you learn something) You find internal gratitude and excitement for what you're doing vs. seeking applause or praise to stay motivated You come up with new ideas for improving the work or doing it different or more efficiently. You keep innovating and continuously improving You're excited when you sit down to work You feel pulled or drawn to the work If you don't feel these things..Unhealthy Productivity may be a result of... Alignment issues - Is this the right work right now Values issue - Is this counter to my ethics, morals, or maybe I don't understand or agree with the "why" behind the work Tired or burned out and need a break or space from the work Pushed to the work, no internal motivation Too much work and your energy is spread too thin Visit www.GlowGettersLife.com/Blog for the full blog post. --- The Leader Toolkit Course is open for enrollment!

Y'all! Glow Getters Podcast is 100 episodes young! It's amazing to me that an idea I once had has turned into 3 or 4 years of slow, steady progress. Did you know the podcast has had different names over the years? 2018 - “Cerulean” (going to be only about my art) 2018 - “Koffee with Kayla” (about more dimensions of me) 2019 - “Glow Getters Podcast” (focused on leadership and living a vibrant life!) I thought the podcast would be a creative outlet and a way for me to connect with more people. I had no idea the thoughts and tips I shared would resonate with so many of you. 1. You don't have to burn to the ground before you take care of yourself or rest. The Instagram Meme Making Me Cringe 2. Listen more, say less. How to Host Better 1:1's Effective Communication — Avoiding…“I heard it Through the Grapevine” 3. Go slow to move fast is the idea that you take thoughtful time to understand the root cause of the problem before you take action. 4. The compound effect is so powerful. Stomp out FEAR and turn it into ACTION with these tips! 5. How do you eat and elephant; one bite at a time. Persistence vs. Tenacity—Do you practice these 4 steps? 6. Boundaries are hard but if you use them you're being kind - “Clear is kind.” -Brene Brown. Breaking All The Work Boundaries + How To Put Them Back My BIGGEST Leadership Pet Peeve! How to STOP doing THIS and THRIVE! 7. It's important to turn inward to hear your own voice, learn, and then trust yourself. 4 Reflection Prompts to Try Today - Monthly Reflection (August was..., September will be...) My 7 Tips to Go Beyond Your Upper Limit 8. Just start - progress is better than nothing. 95. The Pain of Perfectionism Why Be Brave Enough to Suck? 9. Efficiency and productivity aren't about checking the box, but about focusing on what matters. How to Prioritize Your Daily To Do List - Leave Happy Tasks How to Time Block and Work Without Interruptions 10. Discipline/Surrender - The right combination leads to Flow. TGIF, Structuring Your Fridays for Success

In today's episode I address that fear many leaders have — being a micromanager. So many people tell me they don't want to feel like they are micromanaging their team members or direct reports. Yeah, none of us enjoy that. And at the same time, it's our job as leaders to know what‘s being worked on in our teams so that we can help set the direction, remove barriers, give praise, and help prioritize. So yes, we do need to ask our team members and direct reports what‘s on their plate, but I've figured out a way for them to proactively provide updates to me.

In today's episode, I talk about what real leadership looks like and what it doesn't. Hint, it doesn't look like burnout and pretending like you've got it all together. It looks like facing hard things with confidence AND vulnerability. Sharing your story and being real with people helps other more than you know! I reflect on when I was doing public speaking in February of 2020 at the Clinical Laboratory Management Conference…that feels like a long time ago.

In this episode, I share my personal experiences with asking for a raise and making counter offers when HR calls saying “you've got the job!” It‘s been a journey walking through finding my value, identifying my knowledge gaps, and asking for more! I don't think we talk enough, as women, about what it means to ask for more when we are offered an exciting opportunity, and I want to NORMALIZE always making the ask. Pay equity is so important to me, and this is one way to close the wage gap—taking things into our own hands and asking for more! — The news is out! I launched The Leader Tookkit Course!

In today's episode, I share my personal story of being "different" at work. Someone who has been told over and over again, "You just don't fit in..." or "Are you sure you're in the right profession?" I talk about how I flipped my mindset around the belief that maybe I wasn't cut out for this and why finding your truest you is so important at work. -- The news is out!

+Get the free Recognition Worksheet in my Free Resource Library Why is employee recognition important? There are many benefits to employee recognition when it's done intentionally. + I ask each of my employees "How do you like to be recognized?" There are many ways to ask this question, but I feel it's the most straight forward way. + To honor the preferences of my employees, I give them examples of various recognition types. The free Recognition Worksheet I provided at the top of the description has so really great ideas. Of course, this isn't an exhaustive list. I find that when I begin to look for behaviors that I can recognize, I find more gratitude in my work and working with those team members. Gratitude - I find that when I begin to look for behaviors that I can recognize, I find more gratitude in my work and working with those team members. When leaders spend time recognizing our employees at work, they feel appreciated and see that their work matters. They feel engaged and are less likely to turnover. Here's a great white paper prepared by the Greater Good Science Center at UC Berkley that talks all about gratitude and it's benefits: https://ggsc.berkeley.edu/images/uploads/GGSC-JTF_White_Paper-Gratitude-FINAL.pdf Tailor your recognition and be specific - Once you know how your employee appreciates being recognized, be sure to tailor your recognition using their preferences. Recognize your employee as close to the achievement or behavior you observed as possible. Knowing that their leader notices, acknowledges, and appreciates their recent work feels good and reinforces the employee to perform that positive behavior again. Make Time for Recognition - Schedule time on your calendar each day or once a week, whatever cadence works for you, for employee recognition. Follow @GlowGettersPodcast on IG! Get My Newsletter!

Get the free Coaching Dialogue Questions and Tips Workaid Here As a leader, our direct reports, our peers, and even our bosses come to us advice or help with problem solving. In this video, I provide tips for hosting a coaching conversation or coaching dialogue that allows you to help others grow. In this video, I give you questions to ask that help others reflect on the issue at hand and determine what they can do to work through their own ideas to find solutions. Create space for learning: Keep your conversation a judgement free zone. Refrain from assuming you know the "why" behind their reasoning or that you have the answer. Say less, Listen more. Give less advice: Avoid offering advice in the form of a "why" question. Instead of "Why did you make that decision?" ask one of the "What..." questions. Be okay with silence: People need time to think when you ask "What..." questions. Let the person think or even come back later with their reflection instead of offering the answer or posing a leading question or thought based on your perspective. Ask "What Questions." WHAT... is on your mind? were you hoping for? were you trying to achieve? else can you do? is the real issue? would it look like? Reflect Back: "I heard..." or "Here's what I heard you say..." Don't forget your FREE workaid!

In today's episode, I decided to come onto today's episode and show up as authentically and vulnerable as possible...because why? Real life. Leadership isn't always about looking polished and being "on." It's about sharing the reality of our work and being honest about our behind the scenes. I also go into how I'm feeling so grateful right now during a very busy time because in the past, I likely would have been feelin less than grateful and more like resentful. I share how I got there over time and how this shift has been so imperative for making me a better leader. I hope you will enjoy this non-traditional, shook up podcast episode with the real me.
