Michael and Kathryn discussed the benefits of visual planning, a tool they use to manage multiple objectives and strategies. They emphasized that visual planning is particularly useful for those with entrepreneurial or household management roles, as it allows for the organization of multiple objectives, strategies, and tactics into a single framework. The process involves identifying goals and objectives, discussing the complexity of each strategy, and mapping out every step necessary to reach the goals. The Building Champions tool, a spreadsheet tool, was highlighted as a helpful tool for keeping track of all the steps and ensuring accountability. The tool consists of two pages, with the first page designed to flow through to the second, allowing for a clear visual representation of the planning process. If you'd like to learn more about the Visual Planning tool, Michael and Kathryn are happy to help!

In this episode of The Double Win Show, Michael Hyatt and Megan Hyatt Miller sit down with Daniel Harkavy, CEO of Building Champions and author of The 7 Perspectives of Effective Leaders. Daniel shares practical strategies for thriving as a leader by first thriving as a person. From setting boundaries to crafting a life plan, his advice will help you create lasting success at work and at home.Memorable Quotes“[Being well-balanced] elevates leadership efficacy because people are making conscious and subconscious decisions about who you are as a person by what they see, what they observe, how you speak, how you feel.”“It's very difficult to find a place of contentment if you're playing the competition game.”“I'm not being driven out of a place of scarcity. I'm being driven out of a place of opportunity and out of a burden to help and an opportunity to make a difference.”“Self-leadership always precedes team effectiveness and team effectiveness always precedes organizational impact.”“Management meetings are a lot of telling. Coaching sessions are a lot of asking.”“I think that is what really needs to be at the heart of a coaching leader: It's not that you are just comfortable with your people being better than you are. You actually desire it.”“A leader's effectiveness is determined by just two things: The decisions they make and the influence they have.”“My morning routine is my vacation every day. I get a vacation first thing in the morning. I don't have to wake up early. I get to.”Key TakeawaysSelf-Leadership First: Your effectiveness as a leader begins with how well you lead yourself. This includes setting boundaries and prioritizing personal well-being.Boundaries Enable Freedom: Setting clear boundaries helps leaders avoid burnout and stay fully present in their personal and professional lives.The Power of a Life Plan: Taking time to define what matters most reduces regret and ensures intentional investment in all areas of life.Coaching Leadership: Great leaders empower their teams by asking questions, fostering growth, and prioritizing curiosity over control.Contentment vs. Complacency: Strive for excellence from a place of abundance, not scarcity, by cultivating gratitude and staying grounded in what matters.ResourcesBecoming a Coaching Leader by Daniel HarkavyThe 7 Perspectives of Effective Leaders by Daniel HarkavyLiving Forward by Michael Hyatt and Daniel HarkavyLearn More About Building Champions: buildingchampions.comFacebook: www.facebook.com/buildingchampionsLinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/company/building-championsInstagram: www.instagram.com/buildingchampsPerformance Coaching: www.buildingchampions.com/performance-coachingExecutive Retreats: www.buildingchampions.com/executive-retreatsWatch on YouTube at:  https://youtu.be/obYSZ1sTGP8This episode was produced by Sarah Vorhees Wendel of VW Sound

Tara VanDerveer has more wins than any other coach in NCAA basketball history. But as she says, motivating and leading teams isn't about barking orders. Communication, she says, “It starts, number one, with listening.”For VanDerveer, leadership isn't about a power dynamic, but a collaboration between her and her team. “I can't do it by myself and they can't do it by themselves. But as a team, we can,” she says. From seeking opinions from her assistant coaches to connecting with players about life outside the gym, VanDerveer recognizes that championships are won through communication. “The relationships that you have with your players, the communication that you have with them, will determine your success as a coach,” she says.In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, VanDerveer and host Matt Abrahams explore more communication insights from on and off the court — being clear and concise, giving praise and positive feedback, and letting go of perfectionism.Episode Reference Links:Stanford Cardinal Profile: Website Ep.102 Create Presence: How to Communicate in a Way Others Can Feel Website / YouTube Ep.35 Leading From The Hot Seat: How To Communicate Under Pressure Website / YouTube Connect:Email Questions & Feedback >>> thinkfast@stanford.eduEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn Page, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInStanford GSB >>> LinkedIn & TwitterChapters:(00:00:00) IntroductionHost Matt Abrahams introduces guest Tara VanDerveer, former Stanford University basketball coach.(00:00:59) Building Trust and OpennessFostering an environment where players feel comfortable being challenged and pushing themselves.(00:01:52) Communicating Under PressureStrategies for speaking clearly and concisely during crucial moments in games.(00:05:24) Motivation and FocusMotivating a team during challenging times and keeping them focused after successes.(00:07:26) The Value of RoutineThe value and impact of routines in practice and performance.(00:09:01) Positive Feedback and PraiseBalancing constructive criticism with positive feedback to foster player growth.(00:10:46) Taking RisksInsights on taking risks in career and coaching strategies.(00:12:56) Dual Role of CoachingThe dual role of a coach in ensuring both athletic and personal growth for players.(00:14:11) Handling Turnover and OnboardingManaging player turnover and integrating new team members.(00:16:39) Managing EmotionsTechniques for staying calm and focused during high-emotion situations.(00:17:55) Handling Mistakes and Staying PositiveMethods for helping players move past mistakes and stay focused.(00:19:35) Equity in SportsAddressing and advocating for equity between women's and men's sports.(00:21:21) Final Three QuestionsTara shares how to accept praise, two communicators she admires, and her recipe for successful communication.(00:26:30) ConclusionSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Embrace Silence: Don't fear pauses in conversations. It's natural to take a moment to think about your next question or response during a conversation with a prospect. Setting Conditions for Progress: When faced with a contact unwilling to advance your connection, you have two options: Explicitly ask them what conditions need to be met for them to introduce you to a higher-level contact, like a VP of Marketing. Decide whether to follow their criteria or to prospect directly to reach your goal. Groundswell Motion Strategy: In scenarios where a sales cycle starts with an Account Executive (AE), begin by offering assistance to the AE. This approach often leads to reciprocal help, allowing you to eventually ask for an introduction to your champion. Understanding Motives: It's crucial to discern and address two types of motives, your champion's personal motives and the business or executive motives. Educate your champion on these motives and align them with the broader business objectives to facilitate successful sales efforts.
