In this episode, I have Beth Wonson; we discuss a couple of essential topics in leadership, ranging from her transition from being a team member to a leader, how to handle this transition, and becoming more self-aware. Beth Wonson started her career out in public education, and she went into public education because she had two little kids at home; she wanted to be able to have summers off with them and weekends, but she quickly learned that public education was not for her because it didn't work out the way she wanted. Hence, she went to work for a company that did corporate consulting, and organizational development work, and leadership training, and her career took off there. She went from being an entry-level employee to managing and running a pretty big department quickly. Beth created Navigating Challenge dialogue out of her process of examining how traditional leadership skills fail organizations' mission and goals. She studied how leaders working in isolation and staff working in competitive silos adversely affect the prosperity of the whole company. Key Podcast Moments [0:42]- Brief Background of Beth [03:53]- The transition from being a team member to a leader [10:28]- Self-awareness in leadership [14:19]- Adult development in leadership [16:03]- Finding your niche [21:29]- How to become more self-aware [22:16]- The power of paradox [30:46]- Resources on how to contact Beth [32:05]- Ideal people she works with Explaining her transition, Beth said she was on a high-performing team, and she loved it because they were all great together and even had cocktails on Thursdays where they talked about leadership, so when she was asked to leave the team, she thought it was great. The first Thursday after she was promoted, she went from the usual cocktail, and then the team was all gone; this was her first self-awareness that she was now in management. She realized that when you get in the position, and you have more awareness of bureaucracy and policy and how things work, you suddenly realize why a lot of those things didn't weren't as simple as they seem. So a big part of her work now is helping people along that same journey she had gone through. When asked about her take on self-awareness, Beth stated that she developed a program called navigating challenging dialogue, which is the essence of all the work that I do and the thing that makes it different than many other things like Crucial Conversations or other models, is that it's rooted in the idea of emotional self-awareness and emotional self-regulation. She went further to state that the reason she focused on that was that when she was leading that team, it was super effective, and they were getting so much stuff done and were doing great, but part of what was driving them was the fact that she was not always aware of my emotional impact. She states that it was vital for her to help people understand how to dive into self-awareness, do some self-coaching about the energy they bring to the room, and show up clean and clear for conversations. Beth's first point on becoming more self-aware is knowing the remedy to the power of paradox. She went further to explain that power politics tells us that the more you move up the leadership chain, the more you will lose self-awareness, the less you'll be open to feedback. The result is you have a less authentic connection with people because now you're at the top and feel protective. She states that the remedy is to sit down and listen to feedback—the second point to becoming self-aware understanding the assessment.

My guest today threw a crazy stat at me in this conversation: 99% of employees want feedback, however 75% of managers don't like giving feedback. I feel like if you could talk about some of the challenges that are faced in organisations today, you could relate it back to this one statistic. Toady we're talking about feedback and I'm joined by Beth Wonson from NCDsolution.com.  This is a quasi episode mixing up two topics: 1) Feedback conversations - how to get better at having them 2) Facilitation: In particular, how to centre yourself before a workshop, and what you do when you receive negative feedback about your workshop - you know that negative bias we all have? What I love about Beth's work is the simplicity of what she shares, and how applicable it can be to you - If you know you'e been avoiding feedback for some time, this is a great opportunity and reminder on how to normalise giving and receiving feedback, and taking away that stigma attached to it.

Todd Simindinger joins Beth Wonson to talk about how he’s using the tools of Navigating Challenging Dialogue® each day, both at home and in his work as principal of Rockport Elementary.  Todd describes how his day is made up of about 90% emotionally challenging dialogues. And due to the pace of school culture, each dialogue is typically constrained to less than 10-minutes.  For Todd, one of the biggest benefits of the Leadership & Communication Skills workshop are the tools he learned to keep tough conversations efficient and focused while supporting his teachers and staff in being seen and heard.  According to Todd, the workshop leveled up his self-awareness and self-leadership, and his ability to manage his own energy — and these are tools that he didn’t find in any professional development training.
