    Episode #42 - Amygdala Hijack 2023 Cultivating Wisdom, The MBL Program   We don't know what we don't know.  Intelligence without wisdom is often quite destructive.  Knowledge is not wisdom.  The first step in cultivating wisdom is acknowledging the magnitude of what we do not know.  The next step is to move out of our “thinking mind,” with its chronic judgments and interpretations, and step into the present moment by learning and practicing the habits needed to lower our walls.   It is there that we connect with a much deeper level of awareness and intelligence.  This process has proven to create inspirational leadership, emotional intelligence, higher consciousness, and freedom from our ego-based fears.  The resulting creativity, trust, and engagement enables career, personal, and corporate success.  We are developing the openness of a child but this time with the wisdom of a master.  A growing number of us are making the essential transition from believing to knowing.   Feature length episode where Phil Johnson and Arthur Geringas discuss navigating the anxious moments that happen when amygdala hijacks happen and how they affect our personal and business relationships.   LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/philipjpjohnson/   Let's Chat https://calendly.com/mblcoach/chat-with-phil Regards, Phil   Thanks so much for listening!  If you like the show please subscribe to Master of Business Leadership and rate and review it wherever you get your podcasts.  It really does help new listeners discover the show.   MBL Information Center  https://linktr.ee/PhilJohnson   iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/ca/podcast/master-of-business-leadership-podcast/id1335503365   Stitcher https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/master-of-business-leadership?refid=stpr   Libsyn http://masterofbusinessleadership.libsyn.com   Phil Johnson on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/philipjpjohnson   Music http://www.bensound.com   Audio Recorded at  http://www.theorangelounge.com/

    Episode #39: Covid19 - The Learning Experience   We all want to have power and agency over our lives.  Most people know what they would like to change.  The reason they do not make those changes is because they feel that whatever they are doing now is protecting them.  It is their way of coping even if they are miserable within the perceived safety it provides.  They would rather stay in a familiar place even if that place has become increasingly unpleasant. Individual change is hard and organizational change is even harder.  Especially when it involves changes or disruption to the patterns that we have grown accustom.  Reconnecting with our authentic selves while developing our emotional intelligence is the key.  It raises our level of consciousness.  It is important to understand that no one produce results that are beyond their current level of consciousness.   Thanks so much for listening!  If you like the show please subscribe to Master of Business Leadership and rate and review it wherever you get your podcasts.  It really does help new listeners discover the show.   MBL Information Center  https://linktr.ee/PhilJohnson   iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/ca/podcast/master-of-business-leadership-podcast/id1335503365   Stitcher https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/master-of-business-leadership?refid=stpr   Libsyn http://masterofbusinessleadership.libsyn.com   Phil Johnson on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/philipjpjohnson   Music http://www.bensound.com

    MBL Minute: The Beginner's Mind And I Am   Episode Notes     The Beginner's Mind Sometimes our thinking mind and what we believe to know to be true prevents us from seeing things as they really are.  A beginner’s mind is present, focused and lacking any judgment. It is to be curious about everything. Having a beginners mind helps us to learn and grow.  It enables us to get past old, pre-conceived ideas of people and situations.  It strengthens our belief in our self. It help us to be honest with our self and others.     I Am   I am not what I am going to do or what I have already done.  I am a unique vibrational energy that is conscious, connected, timeless and eternal.   I AM. I just am.  Diminishing our ego enables our humanity to shine through.  Our physical body is ruled by our largely unconscious egos.  Ego is focused on labels, beliefs, accumulating possessions, roles and thoughts.  It wants something to be different than it is and is focused on past or future, never on the reality of the present moment.      Program:  http://bit.ly/5-Steps-To-Mastery   iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/ca/podcast/master-of-business-leadership-podcast/id1335503365   Stitcher https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/master-of-business-leadership?refid=stpr   Libsyn http://masterofbusinessleadership.libsyn.com   MBL Inc. www.MasterofBusinessLeadership.com   Phil Johnson on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/philipjpjohnson   Music: https://www.bensound.com

    MBL Minute: Kawhi Leonard's Leadership And Higher Consciousness   Episode Notes   Kawhi Leonard’s Leadership   Kawhi Leonard is considered by many to be one of the greatest NBA players to ever play the game yet it is who he is as a person that is most impressive.  He is not the “quiet assassin” some sports commentators have suggested.  On the contrary, he is an authentic leader, able to see what others cannot because they have been blinded by their walls.  The emotional labor he practices has enabled him to lower his walls by becoming less resistive, judgmental and attached to outcome in both on and off the court situations.      Higher Consciousness   The person most present is most influential.  We can develop greater presence by learning to become less resistant, judgmental and attached to outcome.  We would be surprised to realize how little time we spend being actually present.  A higher consciousness reduces the mindless and habitual fight, flight or freeze response to the anxiety that change and innovation creates.  This enables us to stay more aware and focused on the reality of the present moment.     Program:  http://bit.ly/5-Steps-To-Mastery   iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/ca/podcast/master-of-business-leadership-podcast/id1335503365   Stitcher https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/master-of-business-leadership?refid=stpr   Libsyn http://masterofbusinessleadership.libsyn.com   MBL Inc. www.MasterofBusinessLeadership.com   Phil Johnson on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/philipjpjohnson   Music: https://www.bensound.com

    MBL Minute: MBL Podcast Update   Episode Notes   An update from the Master of Business Leadership Podcast   Hello again,  This is Arthur Geringas - Executive Producer for the MBL Podcast. When we  launched the The Master of Business Leadership Podcast in January of 2018 we weren’t really sure what to expect. What happened was a growth far beyond anything we could have imagined. We’ve ended up with listeners in almost 130 countries - around the world.. every corner of the globe has been reached and we've also had the pleasure of speaking to several dozen inspiring guests along the way. It's all part of this passion project we are sharing with you .. our listeners .. wherein we hope to be a part of your Authentic Leadership Journey. Along the way we developed MBL Minutes which are short infusions of narratives, reflections to previous podcasts and highlights of our game changer interviews. We even dabbled a little with the release of our first inspiring white board video “Change can really drive us bananas”. In this past year and a half we have had some amazing opportunities to connect on a personal basis with some really inspiring people, both on the podcast and with our listenership, and for that we are extremely grateful.   We need to take a short programming break to bring The MBL podcast into its next phase. Over the course of the next month will be  developing even more content that we will be excited to share with you. Follow up stories with some of our game changers, video blogs, whiteboard and some round tables with multiple guests all discussing the subjects that you’ve tuned in for, emotional intelligence and authentic leadership.

    Episode #35: The Magic Of Star Wars And Emotional Intelligence   Why is our emotional type of intelligence the motivator for better results?  The answer is that it is our emotions, not our intellectual intelligence that motivates us to take action.  Emotions are what turn our thoughts into the actions that create our results.  They drive the experiential process that creates new habits, behaviors and beliefs.  It is for this reason the primary focus of our education and training needs to concentrate on the development of emotional intelligence.   The lack of emotional intelligence is the root cause of the drama, chaos and conflict we experience.  The emotional labor that leads to the development of emotional intelligence needs to become part of the essential skills education and training schools and companies offer their students and employees.  It is the crucial education needed to embrace the unimaginable opportunities and challenges that lies before us.   With the accelerating rate of global change the growing demand for emotional intelligence is becoming apparent.   We need to train and educate our emotions.  This new type of intelligence education reflects the future direction of organizational and cultural development.  Virtually all of the top business schools profess to teach leadership, yet their efforts are widely viewed as falling short.   Business as usual will not produce the emotional self-aware needed to tackle global challenges and opportunities before us.  The emotional labor that leads to emotional intelligence has become part of the essential skills education and training companies need to make available to their employees.   Thanks so much for listening!  If you like the show please subscribe to Master of Business Leadership and rate and review it wherever you get your podcasts.  It really does help new listeners discover the show.   Program:   http://bit.ly/5-Steps-To-Mastery   iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/ca/podcast/master-of-business-leadership-podcast/id1335503365   Stitcher https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/master-of-business-leadership?refid=stpr   Libsyn http://masterofbusinessleadership.libsyn.com   Phil Johnson on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/philipjpjohnson   Music http://www.bensound.com   Information about all things Star Wars can be found at: https://www.starwars.com Characters and story arcs are referenced for comparison and educational purposes only.

    Episode #34: Deep Dive   The Master of Business Leadership program has been described as a very elegant teaching and coaching system that works.  The MBL program’s unique methodology examines and helps us to understand the root cause problems underlying the challenges executives and their organizations are facing in today’s rapidly changing environment.  It then provides a proven solution focusing on the development of authentic, emotionally intelligent individuals and leadership cultures.  This powerful curriculum is capable of solving increasingly challenging problems while producing increasingly better results.   We need to shed the walls of resistance, judgment and attachment to outcome that have been built up over time which separates us from our authentic selves.  The program begins with an examination of why change is so difficult.  An emotional connection to our desired results is then created.  This provides the motivation that is essential to the development of new habits and behaviors.  MBL habit stacking and micro skills provide the tools and insights needed to obtain our desired results.   This leads into a discussion about why coaching matters.  There is a fundamental difference between being a coach and being a manager.  A manager provides direction to the team members whereas a coach serves is a guide enabling the individuals to move through the challenges they experience on the way of achieving their desired results.    Dedicated daily practice is necessary to turn thoughts into actions and results.  The gradual process of becoming less resistive, judgmental and attached to outcome is the key to mastery.   A company is a team of individuals that need coaching to achieve their objectives.  Coaching that develops authenticity and emotional intelligence is able to reduce the drama, chaos and conflict that change and innovation invariably creates within individuals and organizations.   A coach is able to sort out the challenges that occur as a natural result of our biological and sociological resistance to change.  For example, using the habits and micro skills of authentic listening and communications enables team members to lower their walls.  This creates a safer, more engaged environment for individuals to take risks on the way to achieving better results.   Coaching focuses on continual improvement on the journey toward the Vision of the desired result while being mindfully present in each moment.  This is how authentic emotionally intelligent leaders and organizational cultures are developed.  Everyone needs a coach.   The gradual mastery of our authentic emotionally intelligent leadership inspires trust and higher levels of engagement.  The MBL program is an experiential process focused on taking correct action and the results those actions produce.  Organizational change begins with individual change.  Over the past two decades the Master of Business Leadership process has provided a proven methodology to achieve both of these outcomes.  An overview of the MBL program is provided below.   Our special guest today is Anthony Graffeo, PhD.  Anthony has had a 40 year passion for helping science and engineering managers master the fundamentals of leadership.  Anthony is currently teaching two graduate leadership courses at Northeastern University.  https://www.linkedin.com/in/anthonygraffeo)   http://graffeoandassociates.com tonygraffeo@graffeoandassociates.com   Thanks so much for listening!  If you like the show please subscribe to Master of Business Leadership and rate and review it wherever you get your podcasts.  It really does help new listeners discover the show.   Program:   http://bit.ly/5-Steps-To-Mastery   iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/ca/podcast/master-of-business-leadership-podcast/id1335503365   Stitcher https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/master-of-business-leadership?refid=stpr   Libsyn http://masterofbusinessleadership.libsyn.com   Phil Johnson on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/philipjpjohnson   Music http://www.bensound.com

    Episode #32: Body Language   A large part of our brain’s initial wiring as a child was the result of some very specialized brain cells brain researchers discovered in the mid 1990s called mirror neurons.  These specialized brain cells were triggered from an early age by observing the energy and body language of those around us.  This enabled us to sense what their emotions.  Our ability to catch the feelings or moods of others has evolved in order for us to survive and thrive within our social groups.   We tend to take on the behaviors and body language of the people with whom we spend the most time.  Our mirror neurons resonate with the energy of the person having the experience just as if we were the ones having that experience.   These 'spidey senses' refer to our ability to sense imminent reward or danger.   If a leader’s actions and body language reflect their authenticity and emotional intelligence the organization will be much more willing to embrace innovation and change.  If they do not the opposite will occur.  Whether positive or negative, emotions can spread like an energy virus throughout an organization.   The body language and emotions of the individuals we choose to surround ourselves with can have a huge impact on our results.  The process whereby the behavior of an individual or group of individuals gradually begins to spill over and affect the behavior of the group as a whole is called emotional contagion.  In order to create an environment where innovation and change are encouraged we need to be developing our authenticity and emotional intelligence.   The Master of Business Leadership program provides the teaching, coaching and habits to achieve mastery which enables the artist in us to emerge.      Thanks so much for listening!  If you like the show please subscribe to Master of Business Leadership and rate and review it wherever you get your podcasts.  It really does help new listeners discover the show.   Program:   http://bit.ly/5-Steps-To-Mastery   iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/ca/podcast/master-of-business-leadership-podcast/id1335503365   Stitcher https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/master-of-business-leadership?refid=stpr   Libsyn http://masterofbusinessleadership.libsyn.com   Phil Johnson on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/philipjpjohnson   Music http://www.bensound.com

    MBL Minute: The Great Battle And The Act Of Deciding   Episode Notes     The Great Battle   We all have a sense that there is a great battle coming but most of us are not yet ready to change our current course.  There is a mistaken idea that when we get woken up all the pain and suffering will be away.  The knowledge of what to do is not the solution, it is just the beginning.  The anxiety and emotional labor that will be required to change our trajectory is the road to the solution.       The Act of Deciding   The word decision derives from the Latin to decide.  It means to cut yourself off from any other possibility.  This is the fundamental first step in creating change.  You must decide.  If you have not yet decided to change any efforts to improve your results will be unsuccessful.       Thanks so much for listening!  If you like the show please subscribe to Master of Business Leadership and rate and review it wherever you get your podcasts.  It really does help new listeners discover the show.     Program:  http://bit.ly/5-Steps-To-Mastery   iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/ca/podcast/master-of-business-leadership-podcast/id1335503365   Stitcher https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/master-of-business-leadership?refid=stpr   Libsyn http://masterofbusinessleadership.libsyn.com   MBL Inc. www.MasterofBusinessLeadership.com   Phil Johnson on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/philipjpjohnson   Music: https://www.bensound.com

    Episode #32: The Artist's Journey   The artist’s journey answers the two fundamental questions of our existence.  Who am I and why am I here.  The artist’s journey begins once mastery of a skill or behavior has been achieved.  During the process of becoming a master our level of awareness and competence reaches a point where our actions and responses become largely instinctual.  We know what to do and we do what we know without a great deal of conscious thought.   Anyone can become an artist by tapping into their passion and purpose.  We do this by learning to peel away the layers of resistance, judgment and attachment to outcome that separate us from our authentic selves.   Once we have reconnected with our purpose the artist in us seeks to perfect the expression of that purpose and share it with others as their ultimate expression and gift of love and service.    The artist genius within us seeks to live on purpose.  There is an ongoing gravitational pull or call to action going on within us to live as our authentic selves.   In a sense, the hero’s journey is the process we go through to achieve mastery.  This reflects the first half of our life’s journey.  The artist’s journey is the second half and may appear boring by comparison because there are fewer twists and turns.    The artist’s emerging character and passion is really the authentic self coming to the surface.  They come full circle and begin to know that person for the first time.  The “overnight success” of moving from mastery to artistry never happens overnight.  By enabling your artistic light to shine you inspire others to do the same.  As you are liberated from your own fear, your authentic leadership automatically liberates others.   The Master of Business Leadership program provides the teaching, coaching and habits to achieve mastery which enables the artist in us to emerge.    Our special guest today is Doug Leitch.  Doug is Managing Partner at Tandem Thinkers Inc.  His authentic, emotionally intelligent leadership is inspiring regional, national and global clients.
