How can we elevate women by connecting and engaging with each other and holding ourselves accountable to our intentions? How can companies who want to attract and retain top talent do the same? I had a great time talking with my guest today, Tiffany Dufu, about her mission to support and elevate women. Tiffany shares her personal story and the mantra her mother used to tell her every day that she hopes to whisper into other women's ears. We discuss The Cru's mission and business model - and how they help women and companies achieve success through support, connection, and accountability. We also talk about why connection is so important to achieving goals (what The Cru calls intentions) and why empathy ensures successful engagement.Tiffany shares how the pandemic has affected women's career goals and why employers and leaders need to understand this new reality and respond accordingly. And she shares 3 tips for connecting across diverse backgrounds that could transform the way your teams get work done. Key Takeaways:If you want something you've never had before, you have to do something you've never done before. Women in the middle (whatever middle means for you in your life) tend to be looking for meaning, advancement, and integration. Limiting choices for women also limits choices for men, which then also trickles down and affects the children in the home. The intention of “finding a new job” doesn't mean leaving an organization. Leaders and employers need to bet on their teams, especially their women, and make clear the opportunities that they have in the organization, within and without their teams.  "We are the most powerful change agents in our own journey." —  Tiffany Dufu  About Tiffany Dufu, Founder & CEO, The CruTiffany Dufu is founder and CEO of The Cru.

David is Chief Leadership Officer at MACNY and an Executive Director with the Maxwell Leadership.

Have you noticed how negative the world is today? When was the last time you heard a positive news story? In 1952 Norman Vincent Peale published The Power of Positive Thinking. Norman didn't discover the power of mindset; he simply repackaged a teaching from the Apostle Paul written to an early Christian Church in Philippi. In this episode, Marisa and David talk about the "whatsoevers," why we need a positive outlook and how we can cultivate it daily.     Marisa is Chief Digital Officer at MACNY. David is Chief Leadership Officer at MACNY and an Executive Director with the Maxwell Leadership.

In today's world, courage is one thing every leader needs. It separates the pretenders from the players. We are currently witnessing courage in action with Volodymyr Oleksandrovych Zelenskyy, the president of Ukraine. Thankfully, we are not all called to put our lives on the line daily as President Zelenskyy is currently experiencing, but we are called to take stands, make decisions, and take risks that require courage. In this episode, Marisa and Dave talk about how we can tell if we have a courage issue and how we can become more courageous.     Marisa is Chief Digital Officer at MACNY.

Have you ever sat in an event, and time just flew by while a presenter talked? You actually were wishing she would have talked longer.

Whether you are leading a meeting, talking with a colleague, or speaking to a large crowd, connection is an influence superpower you need. In this episode, Marisa and David discuss ways you can connect and increase your influence.   Marisa is Chief Digital Officer at MACNY. David is Chief Leadership Officer at MACNY and an Executive Director with the Maxwell Leadership.

Last week we started our conversation with these words from President Eisenhower, "Leadership is the art of getting other people to do what you want done, but because they want to do it.". We shared some content from the new book by Dr. Zoe Chance, "Influence Is Your Superpower." This week, we touch on another tool for living a life of influence, charisma. This episode will give you an up-close look at how you can be more charismatic and increase your influence with almost anyone.     Marisa is Chief Digital Officer at MACNY.

"Leadership is the art of getting other people to do what you want done, but because they want to do it." President Eisenhower spoke those words when he was the Supreme Commander for the Allied Forces. How can we get people to do what we want them to and make it their idea? It's called Influence. In this episode, Marisa and David discuss a book he just read by Dr. Zoe Chance titled "Influence is Your Supper Power." They discuss key tips for being even more influential in all of your interactions. A great podcast that will give you tools to use today.   Marisa is Chief Digital Officer at MACNY.

You have a position that says you are a leader. How are you doing? Are you really a leader? You've been given a position with a title and have been invited to the leadership table. That's great news. The bad news is that leadership has very little to do with position, and if you stay at this level, you won't succeed in leadership. In This episode, Marisa and David discuss four key aspects of leadership. If you do all four, you will be an exceptional leader. This podcast might just change your leadership trajectory.   Marisa is Chief Digital Officer at MACNY. David is Chief Leadership Officer at MACNY and an Executive Director with the John Maxwell Team

Last week we looked at a very unique and impressive leader, Bill Tindall. This week, David went back to the Apollo program and wrote about Dr. John C. Houbolt. Houbolt was the one person who believed that a Lunar Orbit Rendezvous was the only way to land on the moon successfully and return home. In the face of brutal opposition and personal attacks, he wrote a letter to Robert Seamans, the Associate Administrator at NASA. Houbolt changed the minds of NASA. We have the history to see he was right. In this episode, Marisa and David take a look at the keys to having Crucial Conversations. Often things need to be said. The future depends on it.   Marisa is Chief Digital Officer at MACNY. David is Chief Leadership Officer at MACNY and an Executive Director with the John Maxwell Team

Last week we spoke about being a Catalyst. This week Marisa and David discuss an amazing man who was an exceptional leader and catalyst in a most unusual way. Fortunately, we have the evidence of his actions preserved for generations to come. Join us as we discuss Tindallgrams and the man who wrote them.   Marisa is Chief Digital Officer at MACNY.

In chemistry, we learn that a catalyst is a substance that enables a chemical reaction to proceed at a usually faster rate or under different conditions than otherwise possible. People are also catalysts. We can be a catalyst for good or bad. In this episode, Marisa and Dave discuss seven characteristics that will make us a catalyst for good.   Marisa is Chief Digital Officer at MACNY.

With only one in three employees feeling engaged at work, how do we keep those we have recently hired? Yes, our employee engagement numbers are better than the rest of the world, but how can we drive those percentages up. How can we make them feel more like our team? It just might be time for us as leaders to get personal. This week, Marisa and David discuss how we can connect, engage and, yes, get personal with our team.   Marisa is Chief Digital Officer at MACNY. David is Chief Leadership Officer at MACNY and an Executive Director with the John Maxwell Team

When companies hire people, they go through a process of onboarding. Far too often, we stress the same sterile details just like 99 % of all organizations and never point out how we are different and why working with us matters. Because of this, one-third of our new hires will look for a new job within six months. In this episode, Marisa and David discuss why onboarding and Re-Boarding are so important, and they share tips on how to do it more successfully.     Marisa is Chief Digital Officer at MACNY.

As Dave reflected on last week's podcast, an underlying theme seemed to surface "in search of excellence." This week, Marisa and Dave discuss pursuing excellence as individuals. Are you in search of excellence? If so, this podcast is just what you need.   Marisa is Chief Digital Officer at MACNY.
