Podcasts about big hairy audacious goals

In our recent strategy retreat, the GWWC Leadership Team recognised that by spreading our limited resources across too many projects, we are unable to deliver the level of excellence and impact that our mission demands. True to our value of being mission accountable, we've therefore made the difficult but necessary decision to discontinue a total of 10 initiatives. By focusing our energy on fewer, more strategically aligned initiatives, we think we'll be more likely to ultimately achieve our Big Hairy Audacious Goal of 1 million pledgers donating $3B USD to high-impact charities annually. (See our 2025 strategy.) We'd like to be transparent about the choices we made, both to hold ourselves accountable and so other organisations can take the gaps we leave into account when planning their work.

Doug interviews Tanja Bogataj, a visionary leadership coach who made a bold transition from a government career to entrepreneurship. Tanja shares the challenges of reinventing herself and how she helps other leaders launch their big dreams. The conversation explores goal setting strategies, work/life balance and the importance of support systems. Doug also shares his expert goal setting framework! KEY TAKEAWAYS When setting goals, balance masculine and feminine energies by combining clear structure with intuition, be deliberate with goals but also listen to your inner wisdom about timing and direction. Entrepreneurship provides freedom to create opportunities that align with your passions but also requires different types of courage and creates new challenges not found in a corporate career. Leaders often struggle with having no one to share their challenges with; having a coach or support system is crucial as you can't always burden your team or family with business issues. Being intentional about what you want to achieve helps align your actions with your values. It’s important to understand not just the goal itself but why you want to achieve it. Doug recommends having one primary "big hairy audacious goal," but including smaller achievable goals you can easily achieve to maintain motivation and satisfaction with the goal-setting process. Always prioritise family time in your calendar first, nothing is so important that it should consistently override commitments to family, family time cannot be recovered once lost. Transformation takes time, approximately six months for individuals and up to 12 months for teams, but having a coach can help shortcut patterns of thinking and behaviours that limit progress. BEST MOMENTS "I knew something about coaching, but nothing about entrepreneurship." "We're not brain surgeons, nothing we do is that important that we cannot have a date night." "Trust yourself when you either go for one goal and to be open, flexible to change it and learn how to do it better or what needs to be done. Just go with the wisdom of life and living."

Goal setting. Does setting and getting goals light you up and get you groovin? Or maybe you're not a big fan. Either way, this episode focuses on how to set yourself up for success – by using your Strengths, of course! We believe that when you approach goal setting through the lens of your individual talents, it not only makes the process more enjoyable but also opens up a whole new realm of possibilities that you might not have considered before. Tune in for personal anecdotes and insights about how leveraging your strengths can transform your goals from mundane tasks into inspiring challenges. We discuss the importance of having a solid action plan and the value of check-ins to keep you on track. Plus, we emphasize that even if a goal feels outside your natural strengths, you can still use your unique talents to achieve it. So, whether you're looking to set a Big Hairy Audacious Goal or just want to make your bed every day (no judgment here!), this episode is packed with tips and strategies to help you set it and get it!

We are into the last six weeks of the year. As you look back over the past 10 months, how are you doing on your goals you set back in January? If you're like most, your goals are struggling. In this episode, I have a great interview with Ken Williams to uncover why most goals fail and what to do about it. YOUR GOALS WITH THE END IN MIND I am big fan of beginning with the end in mind. When we talk about growing your audience, building your business, or simply refining your call to action, we often talk about starting with the end in mind. The end is the definition of your goals. Where do you want to end up? Unless you can get perfectly clear on where you want to land, your goals have no hope of succeeding. YOUR IDEAL LISTENER The end in mind is exactly why you need to clearly define your ideal target listener. How will you know if you've attracted the perfect client if you haven't defined what that looks like? Many coaches I speak with will describe their ideal client to me as an age range. They might say their ideal client is between 35- and 55-years-old. Worse yet, they might tell me they help everybody. Let's just take 35 to 55. Consider a 35-year-old. Where are they in their career? They've been working full-time in their career for ten or fifteen years. How about their family? They might have a couple kids that are 8 and 10. They spend a lot of time running their kids here and there. Now consider a 55-year-old. It's the other end of the range. Where are they in their career? Maybe ten or fifteen years from retirement. How about their family? They might have a couple kids that are 28 and 30. This person could very well be a grand parent. Now when you are trying to attract your ideal client you will describe their pains and challenges so clearly they think you are reading their mail. Do these two people sound like they have the same challenges and pain in their lives? Is the timeline to overcome those challenges similar in any way? This is the power of clarity. Start with the end in mind. CLARITY ON YOUR GOALS Now when you set goals, everyone will tell you to be specific and measurable. Start with the end in mind. So, why aren't your goals working? Why aren't you succeeding at achieving them? The problem is your goals are too smart. Smart goals aren't working, and there is a reason why. This is the reason I have Ken Williams on the show today. He will show you how to set goals you can actually accomplish. KEN WILLIAMS Ken Williams is a life coach, a chocolate cake baker, and the father of five kids. While he has authored several books, including "21 Days to Success through Networking," his career took a meandering route through call centers, sales organizations, and industrial environments, until he discovered how his past goal-setting efforts had been setting him up to fail. Now, he hosts the Bad Boss Podcast, where he helps listeners overcome conflicts with difficult bosses, and he teaches his clients how to get the results they want by setting S.T.U.P.I.D. Goals. In this conversation, Ken Williams and I get deep into the world of goal setting. We explore why traditional goals often fail and how a shift in perspective can make all the difference. Ken shares his transformative experience with obtaining a ham radio license, which changed his approach to setting and achieving goals. ARE YOUR GOALS SMART OR STUPID This episode challenges the effectiveness of SMART goals and introduces a novel concept called "STUPID goals," designed to fill gaps left by traditional methods. Ken recounts his initial reluctance to get a ham radio license and how passing the test opened his eyes to the importance of relationships and experiences over conventional goal metrics. His story underlines the significance of tying goals to personal experiences, making them more inspiring and easier to achieve. He further contrasts "stupid goals" with "smart goals," clarifying that the former emphasizes stretch, tangibility, unshakable commitment, and the possibility of achieving them realistically yet challengingly. During our conversation, Ken critiques SMART goals, pointing out their limitations in providing a clear path when goals are unmet. He emphasizes the emotional toll of perceived failures and describes how "stupid goals" can offer a more compassionate and practical framework. Using analogies and personal stories, Ken makes a compelling case for goals that inspire and energize, challenging listeners to rethink their approach to personal and professional achievement. The episode also highlights the importance of incremental, small steps in goal-setting. We discuss various techniques, including leveraging resources like print-on-demand publishing and using tools such as the app My Streaks to build habits gradually. Be sure to grab Ken's free gift.

In this week's Green Tagged, Philip and Scott dive into Six Flags' Q3 earnings report and their new three-year plan, "Project Accelerate." With attendance dipping slightly but per capita spending climbing, Six Flags has pivoted to a revenue-over-quantity strategy—a trend echoing the broader theme park industry. Project Accelerate aims to boost attendance to 55 million guests and reach a 35% Modified EBITDA margin by 2027. However, as Philip and Scott discuss, the plan lacks specific, measurable goals and a Big Hairy Audacious Goal. Is this strategy bold enough to inspire transformation, or does it fall short? Join the conversation and let us know if you think Six Flags is on the right path!

Blue Is The New White #178.1 In this recap episode of Blue is the New White, Nick Cribb shares a game-changing analogy that every leader needs to hear. Too often, we get caught up chopping trees, focused on the grind, without ever stepping back to ask, ‘Where are we going?'  Nick talks about the importance of putting down the axe, climbing the tree, and setting a ‘Big Hairy Audacious Goal' (BHAG) that realigns your efforts with your vision. If you're ready to refocus your energy and start thinking bigger, check out the full episode!

Doug is joined by global speaker, author of Forensic Leadership: The Traces We Leave Behind, leadership coach, mentor and former elite British Army Commando Lieutenant Colonel Paul Kinkaid. Paul shares his journey from military service to developing the concept of "Forensic Leadership." Discover how Paul's unique experiences shaped his approach to leadership, goal-setting, and personal growth. KEY TAKEAWAYS Paul's concept of "Forensic Leadership" is based on the principle that every interaction leaves a trace, either positive (green) or negative (red). The three guiding principles of Forensic Leadership are care, notice, and transparency, which help maximise positive outcomes in interactions. Paul developed DactoApp, a software tool that measures leadership traits and predicts how "green" or "red" a leader is, allowing organisations to identify and address leadership issues. Transitioning from military to civilian life can be challenging, as it involves redefining one's identity and finding a new purpose. Setting ambitious goals, can provide direction and create good motivation. Planning for failure is crucial when setting goals, as it helps identify potential obstacles and create contingency plans. Paul's military background provided valuable lessons in leadership and goal achievement that he has then applied to business and his personal life. Developing emotional connections and demonstrating genuine care are essential aspects of effective leadership, regardless of the environment. BEST MOMENTS "Great leadership comes from a position of care and that comes from a couple of profound incidents that happened, and it's in the TED Talk as well that happened in my career that held a mirror up." "If you communicate effectively how the organisation is going to grow and develop and you communicate that intent, which is what I call it. Lots of people call it their why, their vision, their mission, their purpose. I call it intent." "If you're going to set goals in order to succeed, plan for failure. So too many people are too optimistic. You've got to understand where, how, and if it's going to go wrong." "When I left the army as Colonel Poole. I spent a long time working out who I was now, and it was my choice to take the uniform off, but it was hard, it was really hard, handing that uniform in." "We talk about big, hairy, audacious goals and, you know, Colonel in the Armed Forces, Big Hairy Audacious Goal. An app out into the world, Big Hairy Audacious Goal. Number one bestseller, Big Hairy Audacious Goal. What's next?"

Today Armando is throwing Spaghetti On the Wall with John D. Hansen, a business consultant, coach, and author. John discusses his approach to customer service and explains that his interest in researching words and their definitions led him to write books on customer service and leadership. He also emphasizes the importance of understanding the different dimensions of customer experience, including external and internal customers, one's inner circle, and oneself and he highlights the value of repeat and referral business, which is less expensive and more effective than acquiring new customers. John is currently working on a new book that will provide a roadmap for businesses to implement a holistic, five-dimensional customer experience. Win/Win Relationships have been a top priority for John D. Hanson in every role--Sales, Leadership, Customer Service, the Military, Non-Profits, Ministry, Marketing, and Social Media, especially on LinkedIn. Believe it or not, in 2016, John had zero social media connections and very few professional colleagues. Today, his network has grown beyond 30,000 connections worldwide. An engaging speaker, global author, and workshop innovator, John loves to connect & engage with abundance-minded, entrepreneurial businesses & professionals who are curious, courageous, and action takers. Does that describe you or your company? Let's start a conversation to explore how John can help you grow your endeavors and achieve your Big Hairy Audacious Goals!

In this episode, Neil explores the importance of setting goals and the impact they have on personal growth and success. Drawing from his own experiences and insights gained over 25 years in business, Neil emphasises the need for clear, challenging goals that push individuals beyond their comfort zones. He discusses the concept of SMART goals and contrasts them with the BHAG model (Big Hairy Audacious Goals). Neil provides practical advice on how to work towards goals by breaking them down into manageable steps and establishing daily habits that move individuals closer to their desired outcomes.  KEY TAKEAWAYS Setting clear goals is essential for success and personal excellence. Goals act as a rudder, compass, and lighthouse to guide progress towards the desired endpoint. It is crucial to focus on the process of achieving goals rather than just the outcome. Developing a habit of taking daily actions towards the goal can lead to long-term success. Timelining is a valuable technique that can help in achieving goals effectively. BEST MOMENTS "Life without goals, without targets, without direction. You might blunder into something, sometime, but frankly it's a bit of a long shot, isn't it?" "I set goals high for myself and for the people around me because I care. Something to live up to. Something worth going after."  "100% at university probably isn't going to be possible. Not all the time and not in every circumstance."  "The outcome is nothing without the process. So always focus on the process."  "Habits are built in a simple three step model. Cue. Action. Reward."  VALUABLE RESOURCES www.Neilcowmeadow.com info@neilcowmeadow.com  HOST BIO Neil Cowmeadow is a maverick peripatetic guitar teacher from Telford with over 19 years' experience in the business of helping people.

For those who do not know, BHAG stands for “Big Hairy Audacious Goals.”  And we always encourage our clients to set the BHAG at the beginning of the year.  However, doubt and fear set in as the year progressed, and things didn't go as planned.  This is normal, especially when someone creates goals that excite them and scare them simultaneously.  BHAGs are risky and require you to leave your comfort zone to accomplish your vision and worthy ideal.  In this podcast, Coaches Chris and Paul outline strategies to stay above the obstacles and keep the BHAG front and center, allowing you to stay away from the sharks and see yourself on the other side.  If you're not sure what that means, tune in to find out, as well as these other value bombs. Your goals should excite and scare you at the same time. You have to be above the obstacles. Be consistent in the day-to-day, and have to work to win the day. Set the 12-month goal and reverse engineer it to make manageable benchmarks. What is your definition of “winning the day.” Work to eliminate distractions, ease your mind, and when things get tough, do the next right action.

This week, we are speaking with Sarasota Orchestra's board chair, Tom Koski. Together, we speak about how he got into philanthropy in Sarasota, fundraising for capital campaigns as a board chair, and the massive projects he has been involved with in Sarasota County. The secret sauce to a capital campaign? Tom say's it is communicating the need. You take on massive projects because the sustainability of your organization is challenged without it. These projects are not "want to have's" they are "need to have's".

In this episode, host David Ponraj has a no holds barred conversation with Donovan Duncan, Executive Vice President of Urban Strategies, Inc. They discuss USI's place-based initiative that focuses on housing, people, and economic solutions. Donovan shares that having a strong sense of place and belonging is what makes a thriving community; it is the most central part of economic development. “Place is at the epicenter of all things, of all experiences, of transformation and change. It's how people ground themselves in their identity.” He also shares some staggering statistics around homelessness and the wealth gap. Learn more about USI's work in cities like Cleveland, which has a housing-first model with a goal of ending chronic homelessness by the year 2030 using an intentional, grassroots approach. They discuss fallacies around low-income housing, the good and bad of capitalism when it comes to equity, and the limited lens of credit scoring. Donovan also outlines his Big Hairy Audacious Goal for 2024, to incrementally lessen the wealth gap for African American households using a targeted, tracked and very specific method. An ambitious goal that can change the industry framework so that it meets the moment that we are in and creates opportunity for all.Connect with Donovan on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/donovan-duncan-7b5a8356/Email: Donovan.Duncan@usi-inc.orgWebsite: https://urbanstrategiesinc.org/

Gearing up for Q4 of 2023 and for the new year in 2024, Jake discusses some of the most common problems with goal setting. On today's episode Jake discusses how to create Big Hairy Audacious Goals and why impossible dreams are so important to our lives. If you are intent on maximizing your human potential and living the life of your dreams, this episode is for you!

Do you have little faith in your ability to achieve your big goals? I used to feel pretty low on myself as it related to setting goals and achieving them. Didn't matter if it was a work goal, fitness goal, money goal or just a life goal -- a part of me seemed to always believe that no matter how much I wanted it, I just wouldn't achieve it The problem wasn't that I didn't know what I wanted. I had PLENTY of things I desired to accomplish (my Big Hairy Audacious Goal list was massive). I was just ineffective at everything AFTER coming up with the goal. I didn't know how to plan, how to strategize, how to help myself overcome my own obstacles, how to check in with my goals, how to be smart with my goals --- none of that. And so 95% of the time I ended up quitting and feeling crappy about myself. Each failed goal made me feel less and less capable, and that led me to set less and smaller goals. Can you relate? In today's podcast I'm tackling the big hairy beast that is GOAL SETTING, and my goal is that this approach to the topic will inspire a breakthrough within you. You CAN set goals that are meaningful and will really move the needle for you. You CAN create a plan and follow it. You CAN overcome the inevitable obstacles that you'll run into along the way. And you CAN achieve those things you really desire in life. Ready to make it happen? Let's do this together!

Gus Torres is somewhat of a rags to riches story. He has been a sales professional for over 20 years but some of those years were extremely lean to say the least.  At one point he barely had enough to pay for food.  Today he is the president of a very successful Merchant Processing Company that is blowing away the competition.  And he's done that by providing unprecedented opportunities to agents and ISO's in the industry where they can, and do dramatically increase their income.  Gus is all about helping others succeed, and by living that creed he's been able to grow his company exponentially. If you are in sales or have a sales organization you'll want to hear what Gus has to say. …but only if you want to 10X your growth.

On board the pod today is Dom who runs the popular blog Gen Y Finance Guy, where Dom's been blogging about his journey to financial independence and posting net wealth updates for the past decade. Dom is from California, where he lives with his wife and 2 kids. He faced some immense challenges early on in life, growing up below the poverty line, and eventually having to be raised by his grandparents after his parents ended up in jail. Dom refers to this as humble financial beginnings. Dom's grandfather was a business owner and had a huge influence on Dom's finances and outlook on life. As a result, Dom had a pretty Big Hairy Audacious Goal to reach a net worth of $10 million by age 40. Dom managed to climb the corporate ladder, where he was a CFO for a large company, all while side hustling to build his business and his side income. His side hustle became his full time software business, and he was able to build his business to exceed his corporate income, eventually selling the business for over $20 million. His share allowed him to reach a fat FIRE goal with a net wealth of over $10 million, so he now enjoys financial freedom, blogging on Gen Y Finance Guy and managing his family's capital part time. He's a very ambitious guy, loves numbers and math, will be starting his own podcast soon, and our chat was VERY eye opening! Jump on board!

Time for a New Year's Resolution. Let's make it a BHAG. ------- Perhaps you've heard the word BHAG. It's actually  an acronym. Stands for Big Hairy Audacious Goal. A BHAG. BHAG is also, incidentally, a city in Pakistan. Certainly pronounced differently and now that you know it's also a city, the next time someone mentions a BHAG you can ask them to clarify: Are you talking about the acronym or are you talking about the Pakistani city, which, also incidentally, is really fun to say. Not BHAG but Pakistani city. However, I'm referring to BHAG the acronym. A big, hairy, audacious goal. And, tis the season for BHAGs. New Year's resolutions are a part of the fabric of our world. And as of this moment, I've set no resolutions, no goals, for the new year. I need some, I just don't know where to start. In years past I've resolved to select my curse words more carefully, choosing ones that truly reflect how I feel versus the ones that just fly out without consideration. That lasted a little while. Another year I resolved to teach my children the roots of New Orleans funk music when I drove them to school and they sat captive in my car. I even printed out the words to the songs I felt they should know. And that lasted a very little while. I've set New Year's goals for my business and my hobbies. The fact that this commentary even exists is a result of a BHAG I set out for myself about five years ago now – to be a commentator on Public Radio. And while there are many goals I should set out for my business, nothing comes to mind that really excites me. In year's past I set goals for exercise and road races. I set out to run a 10k in under forty minutes. That was a significant BHAG. I didn't make it, by the way. I was about a minute too slow and as I crossed the finish line was I pretty sure I was about to experience a big hairy audacious death and have never tried again. And athletic pursuits have been shelved for a while due to mystery pains in my right knee known clinically as hurto-knee-e-osis. I'm nursing it back to health so I don't need what orthopedists call a knee-ectomy. So, anything stressful involving my favorite right knee is out. The trainer who runs the boot camp workout I do three days a week is a horrible, mean, miserable and unpleasant man which makes him very good at his job and I'm proud to call him my friend. He suggested a full body scan giving me a readout on everything from my weight to my bone density to my muscle mass to my sub-cutaneous fat which, I'm told can only be altered through a change of diet. I could target some numbers to change and set about it via a mixture of dieting, changing what I eat, and exercises that don't inflame my favorite right knee. Or, I could put a travel goal out there of, let's say, travel to BHAG, the Pakistani City. It would probably be easier. Pakistani City. You just gotta say it – it's so fun. I'm Cam Marston and I'm just trying to Keep It Real.

"You are just one phone call away.."   Last week I heard Steve Sims drop this gold nugget quote on a podcast as he gave advice to entrepreneurs - specifically how to make something BIG happen. How do you get what you want in life? You pick up the phone, because "you are just one phone call away". Somebody will have a goal in their life, they will want to make something big happen. This could be a salesperson trying to set a new company record, this could be a contractor trying to land the next high-profile construction project, and ironically, what most people do, is sit behind their computer, disconnected, and perfectly try to plan it out. Instead, pick up your phone and call someone! You are likely only one degree of separation away from getting what you want, but you have to call. You have to pick up the phone. Steve encourages people to go for stupid goals. Stupid, because it may seem so big and outrageous that your mind thinks it's impossible. But remember, anything is possible. So, for lack of a better word, shoot for the moon, because it is possible. Go get yourself a BHAG, a Big Hairy Audacious Goal. The reason Sprinkler Supply Store exists is that I picked up the phone and called my dear friend Matt Hart, and pitched him the idea. What is your BHAG? I'd love to know.

What the hell is a big hairy audacious goal? It's a goal that is in the future and seems unattainable. It's a goal that for you to reach, you will have to fundamentally be a better person.  It's a goal that stretches you in a way that is uncomfortable. Set one now!

Clifford graduated from ASU with a degree in Kinesiology & spent years as a professional athlete, fighting in the UFC, Bellator & the World Series of Fighting, competing against some of the fiercest competitors on the planet. In college he was a division 1 collegiate wrestler & in 2004 he finished 3rd in the Pac-10. He told the coach that he wanted to fight in the UFC in one year. The coach smirked & said “Cliff, NOBODY gets into the UFC in less than a year.” So, there he was, an amateur fighter with a BIG HAIRY AUDACIOUS GOAL to fight in the UFC in less than a year. Training hard every day, he put in the reps, learned new techniques & watched every single calorie, no matter if he was sick, tired, sore, or injured. He executed flawlessly every day because he had absolute clarity about where he was & where he wanted to go. 10 months later he fought his debut fight in the UFC on one of the biggest stages. Not only was his goal accomplished, but he went on to have a successful career as a professional fighter.

Welcome to episode 9.4 of The Extra Mile Podcast – JEFF GALLOWAY EDITION!!  BHAG is a concept developed in the book Built to Last. A BHAG (pronounced “Bee Hag,” short for "Big Hairy Audacious Goal") is a powerful way to stimulate progress. A BHAG is clear and compelling, needing little explanation; people get it right away. Think of the NASA moon mission of the 1960s. The best BHAGs require both building for the long term AND exuding a relentless sense of urgency. In this episode we will discuss BHAG's as they may relate to your running plans! What are they? Should we create them? And if we do, how best to be successful accomplishing them?

“The original goal was to try to become the first NFL player to ever climb the Seven Summits, and when that got pushed out a year, I said, ‘You know what? I'm going to double down. And I'm going to not only go up and climb Mt. Everest, I'm going to come back down, and then I'm going to go up the other side,' which is Lhotse, the fourth highest mountain in the world. And, at the end of the day, that didn't happen because I would have died on Lhotse,” says Mark Pattison, former NFL player who just conquered the Seven Summits. Mark Pattison has played professional football, is an Executive at Sports Illustrated, and the 1st NFL player to climb the Seven Summits.
