Education On Fire - Sharing creative and inspiring learning in our schools
Today's podcast features Mike Robbins, who delves into the intricate dynamics of teamwork, human connection, and the evolving landscape of education. Mike reflects on his experiences as both an athlete and an educator, emphasizing the paramount importance of fostering genuine relationships within teams. He articulates that when individuals care for one another and cultivate a supportive environment, performance inevitably improves. Furthermore, Mike addresses the pressing need for educational systems to bridge the gap between academic knowledge and real-world applications, asserting that many students often grapple with the relevance of their studies to their personal and professional lives. Mike Robbins is the author of five books, including, Bring Your Whole Self to Work and We're All in This Together. He's a former pro baseball player whose playing career ended due to an injury. For the past 25 years, he's been a sought-after motivational speaker who delivers keynotes and seminars for some of the top companies in the world. Takeaways: The importance of caring for one another on teams is fundamental to improved performance. Recognizing our shared humanity is essential for effective communication and collaboration. Many aspects of education fail to connect with real-world applications, causing disinterest among students. Effort is the only aspect of our actions fully within our control, regardless of the outcomes. The best AI cannot replicate the depth of human emotion and empathy which is vital in education. The educational landscape must adapt to the changing nature of work and technology, emphasizing emotional intelligence.

In the wake of this year's election, I found myself feeling a lot of things, but most of all that what sustains us through difficult times is always relationships and community. So I reached out to some past guests of the show and invited them to share some updates about where they are, who they're connected to, and how they're thinking about their work right now. At the end of the episode, I close by sharing a clip from the latest episode of Hey, It's Me.

There is an ongoing debate about whether or not you should bring your authentic self to work. Critics say that you should check all that at the door, leaving behind your personal politics, social causes and sob stories. In this episode, we discuss the extent to which we should allow people to be their authentic selves in the workplace. Do you allow the rockstar jerk to continue to be a jerk if he is bringing in a lot of money? We also explore how there is power in embracing your true self, giving you the confidence to go after “crazy” ideas, advocate for yourself and effect change

In this episode of Money Tales, our guest is Mike Robbins. In 2005, pressured by the rising housing market, Mike and his wife, Michelle, bought a home with no money down and no savings. That was a thing you could do back then. The negative amortization loan they secured seemed manageable at first, but Mike and Michelle soon realized they were sinking deeper and deeper into debt with no equity to show for it. They were getting by, and life was getting good for the couple. Mike's business was starting to thrive. Then the housing market crashed. By 2009, Mike's business had halved, and they were hundreds of thousands of dollars underwater. With two young children and a declining business, they were left asking, "How did this happen?" That's when they hunkered down and started chipping away at the problem to change their situation. Mike is the author of five books, Focus on the Good Stuff, Be Yourself Everyone Else is Already Taken, Nothing Changes Until You Do, Bring Your Whole Self to Work and We're All in This Together. He's an expert in leadership, team performance, and company culture who delivers keynotes and seminars around the world that empower people, leaders, teams, and organizations to be more successful. Prior to his speaking and writing career, Mike was drafted by the New York Yankees out of high school but turned them down and chose to play baseball at Stanford University where he pitched in the College World Series. After college, Mike signed with the Kansas City Royals. He played three seasons in the Royals organization before arm injuries ended his playing career while he was still in the minor leagues. After his athletic career was cut short by injuries, Mike worked in sales and business development for two tech companies, before starting his own consulting business in 2001. Mike's clients include some of the top organizations and institutions in the world, such as Google, Wells Fargo, eBay, Gap, Microsoft, Schwab, Airbnb, the Oakland A's, Harvard University, Coca-Cola, and many others.

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) has been a big topic of conversation, particularly workplace conversation, over the past few years. DEI efforts stand to make our workplaces more inclusive, more welcoming, and more equitable for all. More recently though, there's been chatter that for some companies, DEI efforts are only a facade to make their workplaces look better — without really putting much effort into making the changes that matter. Maeve DuVally is on a mission to ensure DEI efforts are actually changing the face of corporate America — and to be a mentor for trans employees in the workplace. DuVally lived through workplace challenges herself at a place notorious for not being an easy place for women to work — Wall Street. She spent nearly 20 years at Goldman Sachs and Merrill Lynch and details her coming out story in her new book, Maeve Rising: Coming Out Trans in Corporate America. Listen in to hear her advice for anyone who wants to bring their full selves to the workplace, how to be a good ally, and why she fully believes in DEI initiatives. In Mailbag, we hear from a listener who's worried about the high sales charge on her employer's retirement plan and a young retiree who wants to know how to make a little extra money while keeping her flexibility.

As always, an honest and open conversation. When a company states they want you to bring your 'whole self' to work, they say they want you to feel like you belong. In that belonging, employees ideally give full of themselves to collaborate and accomplish work-specific goals or tasks. The theory goes that this creates a workplace culture where everyone feels welcome and is highly productive. Why is this not a good idea?

Learn how to strike a balance between staying true to your values and fitting into the workplace culture without compromising either.

Bringing your whole self to work was brought onto the scene by author and thought leader, Brene Brown. Bringing your whole self to work has taken on many meanings, and each year, the layers to this concept keep deepening and expanding. In this podcast episode, I expand on what bringing your whole self to work means and also take it one step further. Bringing your whole self to work goes beyond sharing your hobbies, pronouns or personal interests, it means connecting the dots on your core influences growing up and how that has shaped your leadership style. In this podcast you'll learn: What bringing your whole self to work means How Brene Brown defines vulnerability How the pandemic shifted the way we view work and personal life What Google's 5 year study, “Project Aristotle” found as the #1 ingredient their most successful teams have How I think about bringing your whole self to work How early moments of trauma and drama can influence the way we lead and show up in work About Elisa: I am a Conscious Leadership Coach and host of The School of Unlearning Podcast.

I'm only on the second Passing the Mic episode and one thing has already stunned me: how little I know about people I've known or worked with for years. Why are we not allowing people to bring their whole self to work? In today's episode, I'm speaking with Tenisha Griggs, Senior Director of Digital Strategy at Terminus. I've worked with her for a long time, but there has always been an important dimension missing from our conversations. I'm hoping we can change that. ------------ Join me for weekly special LinkedInLive sessions where I interview your favorite guests like Pat Lencioni, Seth Godin, Whitney Johnson, and Kim Scott — LIVE.

During this episode of A Richer Life, host Rich Weingart speaks with Mike Robbins, author of 5 books including Bring Your Whole Self to Work and We're All in This Together, to discuss vulnerability and teamwork. Mike talks about his past, his struggles and how it shaped who and where he is now, the value of togetherness in uncertain times and his new book launching on 4/14: We're All In this Together https://mike-robbins.com/together/ Creating a Team Culture of High Performance, Trust and Belonging. Episode Highlights: Mike, a left handed pitcher, was drafted by the New York Yankees out of high school, but instead went to Stanford. After finishing college, he was drafted by the Kansas City Royals, where he played for 3 years until a career ending ‘tommy john' injury. Mike is now a motivational speaker and an expert in emotional intelligence. In the current times, with Covid-19, it is important to be genuine and authentic, and to try and see how this disconnectedness can actually bring us closer together. Growing up, Mike's parents split up when he was young and his dad had a mental illness. Going through that experience taught Mike a lot about authenticity and trust. From an early age, Mike considered himself a “seeker” of knowledge on how to be a better human being. In Mike's books, he talks about how your family is your first team. When he started at Stanford, Mike had to come to terms with not being the smartest student or best player on the team, and, while he enjoyed his time there, it was difficult. Mike's baseball career ended soon after he sustained an injury, and he officially retired when he was 25. When he couldn't play baseball anymore, Mike felt very lost and did not know what he was going to do with life and struggled with depression. We can't connect the dots in our lives looking forward, we can only do that looking backward. Despite his dad's struggles, when Mike was struggling with depression his dad was there for him and was very supportive. His dad unfortunately passed away unexpectedly when Mike was 27. Think of your Ego as a human construct, or a mental construct. It is meant to keep us from harm but often gets in our way. Google did a 3 year study and found that psychological safety was the most important factor for teams to create high performance. Having open and honest conversations is a great way to build psychological safety. Mike grew up in a predominantly black area, and as a white person this meant he grew up as a relative minority. Belonging is a fundamental human need; everyone needs to feel like they belong. The importance of having “the sweaty palm conversation” and “caring about and challenging each other.” What is Mike doing for himself today to live A Richer Life? 3 Key Points: Authenticity and vulnerability are increasingly important values, especially in the face of our current world issues. Psychological safety is the most important element for teams to create high performance. Belonging is a human need, and is it so important to create an environment where people feel like they belong. Tweetable Quotes: “From a very early age I became what I now call a seeker. I was really seeking, not of knowledge, per se, but wisdom and insight into how to be a human being.” -Mike Robbins “I know that we are way stronger and more resilient than we think we are. We have literally gotten through 100% of everything that's been thrown at us in life up to this point.” -Mike Robbins “With any privilege we may have, utilize that privilege in a way that might potentially be beneficial to those who may have less privilege.” -Mike Robbins “Belonging is a fundamental human need.” -Mike Robbins “It's in everyone's best interest to create a diverse environment, to create an inclusive environment, to create an environment where people feel like they belong.” -Mike Robbins Resources Mentioned: Mike Robbins' Website | Linkedin | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram We're All in This Together (book) We're All in This Together (Launch Page)
