Leading Beyond Any Title

Years after the initial push to return to in-person work, leaders are still navigating the complexities of managing remote and hybrid teams. Success in this new landscape isn't accidental—it's the result of intentional leadership and carefully designed environments that drive productivity, collaboration, and autonomy. In this conversation we dive into actionable strategies to help leaders empower their teams and unlock higher performance levels, tackling key questions, such as:How do you maintain strong communication and connection without falling into micromanagement? What strategies build trust when physical interactions are limited?  How can leaders foster genuine engagement and accountability in hybrid settings? Is effective collaboration possible without being in the same room? Follow SAIT Corporate Training on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/saitcorporatetraining/?viewAsMember=true Connect directly with Jennie and Craig on LinkedIn: Jennie: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenniengilbert/ Craig: https://www.linkedin.com/in/craighess/ Have burning questions about leadership that you'd like us to address?

As a leader, your 1:1 time with your team members might be the most meaningful conversations you have all week. These moments offer a unique opportunity to truly see, hear, and value your people. Yet, too often, 1:1 meetings are treated as just another calendar event—easily moved, postponed, or overlooked.  What if we reimagined these conversations as a cornerstone of leadership? Done right, 1:1s can be a powerful tool to deepen trust, unlock potential, and drive both engagement and performance. They're not just about updates or checking the box; they're about fostering connection, clarity, and collaboration.  Explore topics such as:  The true purpose of 1:1s: Moving from transactional to transformational. Optimal frequency and structure: How often should they happen, and what makes them impactful?  Creating value through preparation: Why agendas matter—and when they don't.  Active listening and meaningful dialogue: Techniques to truly hear what's being said (and what isn't).  Addressing challenges: How to navigate common barriers like awkward silences, difficult feedback, or misaligned expectations.  Whether you're looking to reinvigorate stale 1:1s or want to set a strong foundation for new team dynamics, this session will give you actionable strategies and fresh perspectives to elevate your conversations.Follow SAIT Corporate Training on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/saitcorporatetraining/?viewAsMember=true Connect directly with Jennie and Craig on LinkedIn: Jennie: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenniengilbert/ Craig: https://www.linkedin.com/in/craighess/ Have burning questions about leadership that you'd like us to address?

For too long, feedback has carried a negative connotation, often feeling uncomfortable despite our best efforts to reframe it as a "gift."   We've all encountered feedback delivered ineffectively—whether through blunt honesty, passive-aggressive comments, or indirect hints. These methods don't work.   It's time to leave behind the old ways of yelling, telling, and selling.   In this discussion w explore how to redefine feedback and create an environment where it truly elevates both the giver and receiver.   Learn how to foster open, constructive conversations that drive growth and strengthen relationships. https://www.linkedin.com/smart-links/AQG7XMwlMdUl2w  Follow SAIT Corporate Training on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/saitcorporatetraining/?viewAsMember=true Connect directly with Jennie and Craig on LinkedIn: Jennie: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenniengilbert/ Craig: https://www.linkedin.com/in/craighess/ Have burning questions about leadership that you'd like us to address?

Self-reflection isn't just a buzzword in leadership circles—it's the foundation of true effectiveness in today's fast-paced, high-pressure workplace. Leaders who pause to reflect gain more than just clarity; they build self-awareness, make smarter decisions, and inspire trust and confidence in their teams.   The ripple effect? Stronger teams, healthier organizations, and more sustainable success.  The challenge for most Leaders is how do you move beyond surface-level introspection to establish a meaningful, results-driven self-reflection practice? How can you prioritize deep reflection without adding to your already overwhelming to-do list?  In this conversation, join Craig and Jennie as they unpack: The “Why” of Self-Reflection: Why this skill is quickly becoming a non-negotiable for effective leadership.  Practical Techniques: Easy-to-implement strategies to weave reflection into your daily routine without sacrificing productivity.  Transformative Impacts: How a consistent reflection habit can elevate your leadership, enhance team dynamics, and prepare you to tackle challenges with resilience and confidence.  Expect real-world examples, actionable insights, and an engaging dialogue that will leave you energized and empowered to act. Whether you're a seasoned leader looking for a fresh perspective or an aspiring leader seeking to lay a strong foundation, this session is your opportunity to pause with purpose, reflect deeply, and lead with clarity. LinkedIn Follow SAIT Corporate Training on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/saitcorporatetraining/?viewAsMember=true Connect directly with Jennie and Craig on LinkedIn: Jennie: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenniengilbert/ Craig: https://www.linkedin.com/in/craighess/ Have burning questions about leadership that you'd like us to address?

In today's increasingly diverse and complex workplaces, leaders face the crucial task of embracing neurodiversity to foster innovation, creativity, and inclusivity.  Neurodiversity—the recognition that people's brains work differently—brings fresh perspectives, unconventional problem-solving approaches, and unique strengths to the table. Yet, leading neurodiverse individuals requires more than awareness; it demands a commitment to creating environments where all individuals can thrive. While many leaders may strive for inclusivity, truly harnessing the potential of neurodiversity involves more than just good intentions. It requires leaders to foster environments where different ways of thinking are not only accepted but celebrated. This goes beyond providing accommodations; it involves rethinking communication styles, collaboration practices, and even workplace environments to ensure everyone has the space and support they need to succeed.  In this episode, we will explore how leaders can better understand neurodiverse team members', and those who support them; offering unique lenses and perspectives. You'll learn practical strategies to create a culture of psychological safety, where neurodiverse individuals feel empowered to contribute fully. This conversation will highlight the importance of adapting leadership approaches to unlock the full potential of a diverse workforce, allowing teams to excel in a way that benefits everyone. https://www.linkedin.com/smart-links/AQHIMq-vuie1gQ  Follow SAIT Corporate Training on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/saitcorporatetraining/?viewAsMember=true Connect directly with Jennie and Craig on LinkedIn: Jennie: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenniengilbert/ Craig: https://www.linkedin.com/in/craighess/ Have burning questions about leadership that you'd like us to address?

In the workplace, we often find ourselves interacting with a wild variety of personalities—some productive, others a bit more dangerous. Inspired by Jeroen Kraaijenbrink's "10 Dangerous Personalities to Avoid," this webinar explores how to recognize, manage, and even lead these personalities, rather than simply avoid them.   Jennie and Craig as they discuss practical strategies for dealing with common workplace challenges, including how to lead difficult personalities and manage up with impact.   You've likely encountered many of these characters before. Here's a sneak peek: The DODO (Dangerous Outdated Opinions): A relic of the past, clinging to ideas that have long lost their relevance. Their outdated wisdom may sound authoritative, but it rarely leads to progress. The ZEBRA (Zero Evidence But Really Arrogant): Confident and brash, yet with little substance to back it up. Their arrogance often derails team efforts and clouds sound judgment. The MOUSE (Muddled Opinions, Easily Swayed): Timid and indecisive, their opinions change with the wind, making it hard to rely on them for clear direction or decisions. The WOLF (Working on the Latest Fire): Constantly in crisis mode, jumping from one problem to another, they often miss the bigger picture and the opportunity for lasting solutions.   This webinar will equip leaders, colleagues, and those managing upward with impactful tools and strategies for working alongside these personalities and fostering a more productive and harmonious workplace. https://www.linkedin.com/smart-links/AQHI8ob2l1pyNQFollow SAIT Corporate Training on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/saitcorporatetraining/?viewAsMember=true Connect directly with Jennie and Craig on LinkedIn: Jennie: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenniengilbert/ Craig: https://www.linkedin.com/in/craighess/ Have burning questions about leadership that you'd like us to address?

 In today's rapidly evolving business landscape, leaders are often charged with the critical task of fostering a high-performance culture capable of driving innovation and adaptation. Whether it's sparking creativity, enhancing collaboration, or pioneering new ideas, these goals are deeply rooted in social processes that can't be achieved overnight. Leaders must cultivate an environment that encourages open dialogue, experimentation, and even the occasional unconventional idea, all while maintaining a focus on the performance that leads to results.  While psychological safety is frequently touted as the key to this challenge—where everyone feels secure enough to voice their thoughts—it's important to recognize that true psychological safety isn't created by simply declaring it or attending a single webinar. Instead, it requires a sustained, thoughtful approach from leadership.  In this conversation, Craig and Jennie will delve into the leader's role in building this critical climate. You'll gain insights into the subtle cues and self-awareness markers that indicate progress and learn practical strategies for consistently fostering a culture where every team member feels empowered to contribute. https://www.linkedin.com/smart-links/AQGJugVLgQvBjw  Follow SAIT Corporate Training on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/saitcorporatetraining/?viewAsMember=true Connect directly with Jennie and Craig on LinkedIn: Jennie: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenniengilbert/ Craig: https://www.linkedin.com/in/craighess/ Have burning questions about leadership that you'd like us to address?

One of the most detrimental actions a leader can take is to overlook or support poor performance. Doing so not only undermines the organization but also reflects poorly on the leader's own performance. Poor performance drags down every aspect of the business and fails to benefit the individual as well.  In this episode, Jennie and Craig shift their usual focus from high performance to addressing poor performance. What defines poor performance? How can it be managed effectively? And what happens when it spreads across all levels of the organization?  Join us for an engaging conversation where you'll explore actionable strategies to prevent and combat underperformance in your team. Expect to leave with one big idea, two practical strategies, and three essential questions to kickstart your Friday.

In today's fast-paced work environment, expecting people to simply work harder isn't prioritizing—it's counterproductive. The “more is more” mindset can erode organizational effectiveness, diminish work quality, and negatively impact employee well-being. In a world where busyness is often celebrated, it's time to challenge the norm of juggling multiple "priorities." True prioritization means focusing on one thing at a time, with purpose and clarity.  Join Jennie and Craig in this conversation where you'll learn how to use prioritization as a tool for mastery. Discover practical ways to ensure your team's working methods align with your strategic goals and gain the confidence to say no when necessary. Packed with actionable strategies, this session is perfect for current and aspiring leaders alike.

When things are going well, leadership can seem easy, and focusing on developing leadership skills can also seem like a nice thing to do.  However, leading when times are tough… when a team is not performing as expected – the number isn't being hit, the results are being generated, collaboration and communication are failing… can be a different thing. Leadership development during these times can seem like a luxury one cannot afford to take time for.  Leading a struggling team is never fun, but paying attention to leadership basics – remain positive, take care of yourself first, check the reality of the situation, diagnose what the cause is, and enrolling your team in determining next steps – are all critically important leadership skills that this episode covers.  If you have questions about leadership, please send them to us at leadership.questions@sait.ca Referenced in this discussion are these prior conversations:  Trust in Leadership with Ila Edgar https://www.linkedin.com/smart-links/AQGT3sBPnFPBtw Critical Thinking with Evan Weselake https://www.linkedin.com/smart-links/AQFEDNvzT1KDMA  Follow SAIT Corporate Training on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/saitcorporatetraining/?viewAsMember=true Connect directly with Jennie and Craig on LinkedIn: Jennie: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenniengilbert/ Craig: https://www.linkedin.com/in/craighess/ Have burning questions about leadership that you'd like us to address?

The conversations you have with your leader, peers, and your team determine the quality of your leadership. Are you having the right conversations today?  Critical Thinking is about far more than spreadsheets and data.

And if Critical thinking is lacking both leaders and their teams can fall prey to bias and costly shortcuts.

Amidst the rapidly changing landscape, trust in leadership emerges as the linchpin for organizational success. As teams and companies grapple with unprecedented shifts, the traditional focus on command and control must evolve.

Let's face it - the phrase 'I wish I could go to more meetings today' is not a sentiment commonly heard in the workplace. Meetings, despite their integral role, often draw attention for the wrong reasons. According to Otter.ai, remote work has led to a 70% increase in weekly meetings, with an additional 10% in meeting time, resulting in three extra meetings per week for employees. Atlassian adds that the average employee attends 62 meetings per month, with half of them considered a waste of time.  As the facilitator, you hold the key to transforming these statistics. Your meeting, your accountability. You shape how time is spent, how contributions are valued, and how focus is maintained.  Join Jennie & Craig as they unravel the intricacies of holding an effective meeting. Discover strategies, tips, and ideas to elevate your facilitation skills, ensuring meetings become a space where time flies, contributions are enthusiastic, and focus is unwavering. Follow SAIT Corporate Training on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/saitcorporatetraining/?viewAsMember=true Connect directly with Jennie and Craig on LinkedIn: Jennie: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenniengilbert/ Craig: https://www.linkedin.com/in/craighess/ Have burning questions about leadership that you'd like us to address?

The importance of setting boundaries to give yourself enough space and time to create, produce, get work done, and to simply find time to think, cannot be underestimated.  In this Leader Lesson, Jennie and Craig define Boundaries, discuss why they are important and what the risk of not having any is, and – importantly, consider the importance of how and why to communicate your boundaries to your teammates.  This conversation follows an earlier, longer, and more in-depth conversation that Jennie and Craig had on Creating Effective Boundaries.

As a leader the expectations are vast – drive engagement, foster high-performance and cultivate a sense of belonging within your team. All this while ensuring the seamless execution of day – to – day tasks. Today's teams are very human, dynamic, and often decentralized. It's imperative for leaders to adopt an approach that mirrors the intricacies of human interaction, acknowledging the emotions and inter-dependence that characterize modern teams.  Join Craig and Jennie as they navigate the labyrinth of team dynamics, offering insights into how leaders can architect environments that guarantee engagement, create the conditions for high performance and foster genuine connection between all members of the team.  Curious? So are we:  What distinguishes task and social connection: do the nuances between these two set the foundation for well rounded team dynamics?  What are the elements that drive engagement? Is it a catchy buzzword, or critical to success?  What is beyond the forming – storming – performing model still so widely used? https://www.linkedin.com/smart-links/AQFKQKvfWtqZzgFollow SAIT Corporate Training on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/saitcorporatetraining/?viewAsMember=true Connect directly with Jennie and Craig on LinkedIn: Jennie: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenniengilbert/ Craig: https://www.linkedin.com/in/craighess/ Have burning questions about leadership that you'd like us to address?

Individuals want to be seen and heard and know that the effort they put in – and the results they generate – are appreciated.  In this Leader Lesson, Jennie and Craig define Recognition, discuss the forms it can take, why not one size fits all when it comes to recognition, what good recognition looks like, and share the superpower of a “Power Thank You” (from Mark Goulston).   This conversation follows an earlier, longer, and more in-depth conversation that Jennie and Craig had on Recognition and Rewards.

As a Leader, providing continuous feedback is a critical aspect of steering performance, fostering accountability, nurturing team growth, and ensuring that work remains on track and is timely. But is feedback genuinely a gift?  Consider: When you give someone a gift, the intent, delivery, and the occasion are carefully considered. Whether it's a birthday, graduation, or a well-done gesture, the context matters. Feedback demands a similar level of thought and intention, yet, regrettably, it often falls short. Observe the subtle cues when you approach someone with, “May I offer you some feedback?”. Does their body language radiate excitement and openness, or do you sense hesitation?  This conversation will touches on:  Understanding the genuine needs of your employees: The skill sets required to deliver timely, tailored feedback that aligns with their needs.  Navigating poorly delivered feedback: Strategies for handling situations where the necessary skills are lacking, and you are the receiver.  Building an effective culture of feedback within a team: Explore practical approaches and potential obstacles to creating a feedback-rich culture. https://www.linkedin.com/smart-links/AQF5MmMFUHNWVA   Follow SAIT Corporate Training on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/saitcorporatetraining/?viewAsMember=true Connect directly with Jennie and Craig on LinkedIn: Jennie: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenniengilbert/ Craig: https://www.linkedin.com/in/craighess/ Have burning questions about leadership that you'd like us to address?

It is said that all great teams have a high degree of Psychological Safety. That they are willing and able to engage in strenuous debate of ideas and concepts, challenge each other, and hold each other accountable – all without fear of blame, shame, or judgement.  In this Leader Lesson conversation, Jennie and Craig define Psychological Safety, discuss what it is NOT, the role of a leader vs. teammates in creating a psychologically safe space, and talk about why the goal is to develop a culture of contribution.  This conversation follows an earlier, longer, and more in-depth discussion of Psychological Safety.

As James Clear said – “New goals don't deliver new results. New lifestyles do. And a lifestyle is a process, not an outcome. For this reason, all of your energy should go into building better habits, not chasing better results.”   Jennie and Craig discuss goal setting, looking at why and when it works and makes sense to do so, why SMART goals aren't necessarily the best approach, why goal setting goes wrong and can – at times – feel like a check box exercise, and more. All aimed at helping you think about the systems and processes to focus on to generate great outcomes.   Link to the webinar video, and other resources:  https://www.linkedin.com/smart-links/AQEsutub7rxWYw  Follow SAIT Corporate Training on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/saitcorporatetraining/?viewAsMember=true Connect directly with Jennie and Craig on LinkedIn: Jennie: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenniengilbert/ Craig: https://www.linkedin.com/in/craighess/ Have burning questions about leadership that you'd like us to address?

No one likes to be micromanaged. Leaders need to strive to empower their team members, trust them to do their work done, and strive to hold them accountable to deliver exceptional results.  In this short Leader Lesson Jennie and Craig define micromanagement, look at the reasons it happens, discuss how you can identify if you are a micromanager, and finally highlight some of the ways to reduce or eliminate micromanagement.  This conversation draws on a prior, longer conversation that Jennie and Craig had about Micromanagement.
