On today's show we talk about how to have staying power.  Steven Gaffney is the founder, president, and CEO of the Steven Gaffney Company, a leading specialist in internal communication tactics that help manage and maintain change. He works with top executives and leaders in industry and government, helping organizations like NASA and Citigroup increase morale and productivity to collaborate and succeed in their goals. Steven is the author of six books, including Be a Change Champion: 10 Factors for Sustaining the Boom and Avoiding the Bust of Change. Key Takeaways:Unspoken Communication: Addressing the unsaid is crucial for improving communication and organizational dynamics. By encouraging open dialogue and addressing underlying issues, organizations can foster better understanding and collaboration among team members.Conditionally Powerful vs. Unconditionally Powerful: Being unconditionally powerful means focusing on what can be done to overcome challenges, regardless of existing conditions. It involves taking proactive actions and not letting external factors limit one's capabilities and potential for success.Awareness and Responsibility: Making individuals aware of their conditional mindset empowers them to take 100% responsibility for their actions and reactions. By recognizing the influence, they have over their own lives, individuals can proactively make changes and take control of their outcomes.Controlling the Self: The only thing individuals can truly control is themselves. By focusing on their own behavior and reactions, individuals can positively influence the dynamics around them and contribute to a more positive and productive environment.Quitting vs. Persevering: The decision to quit or persevere is personal, but claiming to have tried everything can limit potential growth. It is important to remain open to new possibilities, solutions, and experiences, even when faced with challenges, in order to continue progressing and achieving goals.Learning from experiences: Analyzing past successes and failures helps identify what works and what doesn't. By drawing lessons from experiences, individuals and organizations can improve their strategies and approaches in the future.Expanding the frame: Considering the bigger picture and ultimate goals when facing challenges allows for the exploration of new possibilities and alternative approaches. By broadening the perspective, individuals can find innovative solutions and make better decisions.Taking action and iterating: High-performing teams prioritize taking action and iterating quickly. They value progress over endless discussions, enabling them to test different approaches, gather feedback, and make adjustments for continuous improvement.Motivation through speed: Taking action and making progress, even if imperfect, creates momentum and a sense of achievement. Speed can inspire and energize individuals and teams, leading to improved quality and market responsiveness through faster feedback loops.Bias for action: Having a bias for action involves prioritizing tangible steps forward over excessive planning or indecision. It encourages a mindset of agility, adaptability, and continuous improvement.Top Three Takeaways:1. Be unconditionally powerful – make the unaware aware. 2. Focus on honest communication. Get that unsaid said. 3.  Create high achieving teams versus high performing teams. How to get in touch with Steven:Email: info@stevengaffney.comWebsite: https://www.stevengaffney.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stevengaffneycompany       

Molly Sargent is Founder & CEO of ProImpress, a dynamic keynote speaker, a master facilitator and author of the forthcoming book, Mastering Authentic Influence™. Since 1985, Molly has successfully trained and coached tens of thousands of Trusted Advisors and teams (and the leaders who love them) to wield greater, positive influence in their client-facing and colleague-collaborating exchanges — face-to-face, voice-to-voice, pen-to-pen. As a business owner and corporate consultant since 1997, Molly's roles have included: sales, sales management, curriculum and course design, meeting facilitation, front-line employee training, leadership training and development, executive development & coaching, strategic consulting, organization change management, and project management. The focus of her training and coaching is on helping Trusted Advisors and Trusted Experts make the most of precious facetime with clients and colleagues, increasing their influence during hard-won sales calls, high-risk presentations and hard-charging collaborative problem-solving sessions. Thanks to her highly discerning clients over several decades, Molly designed – and truth-tested – the no-nonsense training that makes up the ProImpress curriculum. The flagship programs include: Mastering Authentic Influence™ (sell), Presenting Yourself & Your Ideas with Impact™ (present), Dynamic Team Problem-solving™ (teams), Leader as Coach™, Leader as Change Champion™ (coach) and Leader as Culture Carrier™(peer-coach). More recently, as an outgrowth of her Leadership & Transformation Coaching Certification from the Hendricks Institute in Ojai, CA, she began teaching her course participants how to successfully and pragmatically leverage mindfulness practices in everyday business exchanges; for instance, she began demonstrating the power of breath to help ground nervous impulses in negotiations. She playfully refers to this research-supported curriculum as “Spinach in the Cookies,” so named because these “extra skills” are mixed into every core training from ProImpress. Molly earned her Bachelor's degree and a teaching certificate from Penn State University, and spent a year teaching at the Center for English as a Second Language in France. She has earned numerous Certifications and Master Certifications in training and executive coaching. A key specialty is organizational culture transformation—aligning behavior with corporate strategy and realizing better business results. Over the years, she has worked alongside representatives of McKinsey, The Boston Consulting Group and others to translate their recommendations from written reports into measurable behavior change on the job. Molly feels passionately about the work of her company and team: “There's a bigger game at play here. Busy, accomplished professionals don't always want to stop what they're doing to focus on how they're doing it. Yet, I'm convinced that by waking up super-smart professionals to the benefit (and the practice) of being more intentional in their communications, not only will their workplace relationships (and results) improve, their personal connections will deepen, as well.”

Soil. We have a lot of it here in Canada, with the 12th largest agricultural land holding in the world. Our vast land presents a large opportunity to help combat climate change with sequestering carbon, as well as helping farmers' bottom lines. Traditionally, agriculture has been all about yield: the more bushels, the better. But there's a growing push to pay farmers for what they produce and what they preserve.Canada's soil can help grow food for an increasingly hungry world, but is also a powerful tool in the fight against climate change, because it has an incredible ability to store carbon. But it's going to take technology and investment from Canada's farming community to realize this full potential. On this episode of Disruptors, an RBC Podcast, host John Stackhouse explores how soil carbon can help generate The Next Green Revolution. Guests include Mohamad Yaghi, RBC's Climate & Agriculture Policy Lead, Dr. Angela Bedard-Haughn, Dean and Professor, College of Agriculture and Bioresources at the University of Saskatchewan and Marty Seymour, CEO & COO of Regina-based CarbonRX..Check out RBC Thought Leadership's The Next Green Revolution Project hub here. For more information about the University of Saskatchewan's College of Agriculture and Bioresources, click here.

So we focus on the things that we feel confident in. But there is wisdom in every misstep that we take as professionals, as practitioners.”“Yet the path to success is not always linear, you take one step forward, two steps back, a leap to the right, a stumble to the left.”“They were trying to do it all by themselves. They were the ones asking for change, they were the ones writing new policies, they were the ones implementing new training requirements. They were working in isolation. But isolated strategies do not work.”“I think it's important to say that these people [leaders], you know, are not always management. They can be management, but a job title doesn't make a leader.”Connect with Aimee ArsenaultAimee Arsenault is a CRSP and CHSC.
