Podcasts about cultivate the three essential virtues

Chapter 1:Summary of The Ideal Team Player"The Ideal Team Player" by Patrick Lencioni outlines the characteristics that make someone a valuable team member. Lencioni identifies three essential virtues that the ideal team player embodies:1. Humble: Humility is the foundation of an ideal team player. Humble individuals prioritize the team's success over their own ego, recognizing that collaboration is key to achieving goals. They are willing to share credit and take responsibility for failures.2. Hungry: A hungry team player is motivated and self-driven, constantly seeking to improve themselves and contribute to the team. They are ambitious, not just in terms of personal success but also in supporting the team's objectives. This characteristic reflects a strong work ethic and a desire to go above and beyond.3. People Smart: Being people smart refers to emotional intelligence. Ideal team players have the ability to understand and relate to others, fostering positive relationships and teamwork. They are good communicators who can navigate interpersonal dynamics effectively.Lencioni emphasizes that these virtues are interrelated and that a balanced combination of all three makes an individual an exceptional team player. He also outlines the negative aspects of lacking these virtues, detailing how team dynamics can suffer when individuals prioritize their own needs over the team's.The book combines theory with practical insights, including a fictional story that illustrates the principles. Lencioni also provides guidance on how organizations can identify, hire, and cultivate team players who embody these traits, ultimately leading to more effective and cohesive teams.Chapter 2:The Theme of The Ideal Team Player"The Ideal Team Player: How to Recognize and Cultivate The Three Essential Virtues" by Patrick Lencioni is a business parable that revolves around the importance of teamwork and the key characteristics that make someone a valuable team member.

Long-time listeners of the podcast know that I enjoy learning about leadership and self-development. I have had many guests on the podcast that introduced me to tools  and today's guest has a tool which I know will help your team and all of your relationships. My lab partner is Tim Cooper. He is a Principal Consultant at The Table Group and the founder and president of Cooper Consulting. Tim has over 15 years of Team Leadership experience in his partnership with The Table Group. His clients include executives from Renaissance Learning, Chick-fil-A, Southern New Hampshire University, and Ørsted. Tim describes his approach to consulting as relational, particularly in tackling difficult interpersonal dynamics with the teams he serves. His specialties include building healthier relationships within executive teams that cascade throughout the organization. In this episode, Tim will talk about The 6 Types of Working Genius. These are 6 different types of gifts that are required of any group of people trying to get something done: The Genius of Wonder, The Genius of Invention, The Genius of Discernment, The Genius of Galvanizing, The Genius of Enablement, and The Genius of Tenacity. If you don't know what the 6 Working Geniuses are, after this episode, you will learn what they are and how you can use this knowledge to lead, be part of a team successfully, and be a better version of yourself. Tim loves talking about anything that has to do with Organization Health and the interplay between Smart and Healthy Organizations, and The 6 Types of Working Genius is the best tool he has come across that can help teams and individuals raise team morale, productivity, and organization health.  Bottom line: Tim will tell us what the 6 Types of Working Geniuses are and how knowing these Geniuses can create better organizational health.

It is the art of getting work done, both individually and on a team.” - Tim Cooper “An Assessment can't tell you what brings you the most joy and fulfillment, it's up to you to answer that.”  - Tim Cooper “Work doesn't have to suck.

Mother-daughter duo of Texas-based S & D Plumbing, CEO Rhonda Dowdy and Director of Business Development Amanda Dowdy Lawson share how they have invested in leadership training in order to grow and evolve as a business. They highlight the importance of staying innovative, humble, and curious.  Defining Business Leadership As CEO of S & D Plumbing, grandma, and mother, Rhonda has a lot on her plate. After starting S & D Plumbing 40 years ago, it has now grown into two locations with 35 employees. While she now has a General Manager that handles the day-to-day processes, she shares that it took hard work to find and develop the right business leadership. Rhonda credits this training to creating a culture of teamwork that they have worked hard to foster.  “It's a continual journey. Because as long as you're wanting to grow, as long as you're wanting to stay in business, much less grow your business, you've got to have that leadership capability. I could tell you some of the things we've implemented. We believe in training. We train at every level of the company, all the way to me. I have a leadership coach, my General Manager has a leadership coach. We train our technicians, we train our CSRs, and we've got the best of the best.” - Rhonda  Amanda Lawson recently moved from California to Texas after spending nearly a decade as a professional beach volleyball player. During this time, she shares that she had to create her own path and personal brand. Now, as the Director of Business Development, these skills are playing an important role as she builds the S & D brand and networks in the community.  Taking Pride in Both Legacy and Innovation Rhonda says that while their legacy is important to them, they also value innovation and understand how important it is to evolve with the times. Her tips for staying on the cutting edge of the industry include: Join best practice groups. These will encourage you to invest in your business and yourself, and equip you with valuable tools, connections, and resources.Hire young people.Prioritize work ethic and value hard work. From the beginning, Rhonda emphasizes that S & D Plumbing has been about establishing a business that can be passed onto the next generation. She says that they named their business after their two sons, Sam and Dan, and that this generational value is instilled in the very foundation of the company.  Their mission is to help people hone their skills, grow into management positions, and learn leadership skills. With this approach and mission, S & D Plumbing has been able to cultivate and build a business legacy that can stand the test of time. Leadership: Nature vs. Nurture Both Rhonda and Amanda share the view that leaders are learners, and have leadership written into their character. Rhonda also believes that true leaders often lead before they even command a leadership position or role. To inspire leadership and personal growth in their business, Rhonda says that they all share resources and learn from each other as a team. Most importantly, they implement what they learn.  Podcasts:  Andy Stanley Leadership Podcast Craig Groeschel Leadership Podcast Books:  What the Heck Is EOS?

And you make one decision at a time. And depending on where you are in your business, because I remember where we were 20 years ago, and where we are today, it's just a huge difference. And I remember when we first got started in the best practices groups and we'd go and we'd learn all this stuff and it would just blow our minds and we would go ‘Oh my gosh, we're going to do this, we're going to do this, we're going to do this,' and we had to say ‘What's the most important thing we can take away from this conference? We'll go back. Let's implement it.' And then you build on that. You can't do it all at one time.” - Rhonda Advice From Rhonda and Amanda Rhonda: There will always be challenges in life and business. It's a journey.Let go of things and delegate. Hire the right people so that you can focus on what you need to do.Take it one day at a time and one step at a time.Value and exemplify servant leadership. Amanda:  Take chances.Look for opportunities.Be present and show up with your best self every day.Stay humble and open-minded.

The Connected Yoga Teacher Podcast 166: When & How to Hire a VA (virtual assistant) with Sandra Booker   Description: Running a yoga business is more than just teaching yoga classes.

She specializes in workflow and process review, and helps streamline business processes and develop efficient workflows to keep things organized and on track. She also helps startup VAs generate the same kind of raving clientele she enjoys in her own business as part of her work at VA Studio.    Do you really need a VA or you need to look at your own productivity? What should you look at before hiring a VA? How much would a VA cost? Where can you find them, and what are some questions you should ask before hiring? Sandra answers all of our questions about bringing a VA onto your team, and shares some of the benefits that having a VA on your team could provide.   If you've ever thought about bringing in help into your business but aren't sure what that would look like, this episode will be an eye-opener.   Key Takeaways: [10:33] Shannon introduces her guest for this episode - Sandra Booker.

They don't work with shampoo, they don't work with VAs."   "If you have anything less than 10 hrs of work to hand off to somebody a month, you probably don't really need a VA yet."  

Today’s show is all about continuous learning and improvement. Each person has a unique learning style, so how do you know what’s right for you? What will pique your interest and keep you striving to get better and better? We feature two guest CEOs to help shed some light on the topic.   JD Ewing is the President & CEO of COE Distributing. He grew up in the family business that his grandmother started in the late 40s and he has continued his education throughout the decades to create a sustainable and healthy business.   JD’s company has seen quite a few transitions until now from back when it first started. In 2006, his company reached 22 million dollars in revenue, which was 100X over the course of 20 years. He is currently on track to be 4X times bigger than in ’06.   JD shares his educational journey. Before he had started on this path, he had not read a book in over five years, but over the last 20 months, he has read 30 books thus far. With being introduced to the Rockefeller Habits, he understands the importance of continuous education both for him and his leadership team. He dives further on the specific examples he’s learned thus far on the show.   Today’s next guest is Cameron Brandis. Cameron is the Business Director and Owner at Brandis Industries, but he’s currently overseeing two other businesses on top of his current one. These two other businesses were created after a terrifying crash that happened in Cameron’s industry that resulted in him having to lay off several of his staff members.   When it comes to the educational piece, Cameron has been studying the Gazelles Growth Institute MBD (Master of Business Dynamics) program, which is a self-study course that offers practical hands-on advice for business owners looking to apply real strategies in their business right away.   As a university graduate, Cameron saw that there was still quite a bit of practical information lacking in his coursework and he wanted something he could grasp and apply. He’s been working through the coursework for the last 12 months and it has played a critical part to the success of one of his startup businesses. Cameron shares further about the course structure and what he’s learned so far within the episode.   Interview Links: Coedistributing.com Becoming Your Best: The 12 Principles of Highly Successful Leaders, by Steven R.

Hi everyone! In this Tip of the Day episode, I'm talking about a book that I recently read called The Ideal Team Player: How to Recognize and Cultivate The Three Essential Virtues by Patrick M. Lencioni. This book was recommended in the Facebook group and I finally got the chance to read through it, and I really found a ton of awesome nuggets of information. I value reading good leadership books to grow as a group practice owner, and so anytime I read an amazing book, I like to give that recommendation out to other group practice owners so that you can use that time to read a little bit and learn how to lead a little bit better! In the episode, I discuss: three things to look for to find your ideal team players (therapists, employees, admins, etc.): hungry, humble, and smart a summary of the book how to tell if someone is hungry, humble, and smart in your group practice how to apply these ideas specifically to a group practice setting an exercise to map out where your current team players fall in these categories what I got out of the book This episode is sponsored by TherapyNotes. TherapyNotes is an EHR software that helps behavioral health professionals manage their practice with confidence and efficiency. I use TherapyNotes in my own group practice and love its amazing support team, billing features, and scheduling capabilities. It serves us well as a large group practice owner.  

This week I am honored and fired up to be speaking with Patrick Lencioni.  Pat is the founder of The Table Group, author of 11 books which have sold over five million copies, and one of the world’s leading experts in team performance and organizational health.  His mega-bestselling book, The Five Dysfunctions of a Team, is one of the best books ever written on the subject and continues to be on the Wall Street Journal bestseller list, even 16 years after it was released.  His latest book is called The Ideal Team Player. In this interview, Pat talks about what got him interested in the subject of teamwork and leadership, gives a glimpse into writing his writing process, and shares some specific tips that allow leaders and teams to thrive.  We also talk about how to create a culture where people put the needs of the team, organization, and vision above their own, and why vulnerability is key to trust. Key Takeaways: [3:31] Pat discusses the two seminal experiences that interested him to seek a path working in leadership and organizational health. The first was in his youth witnessing his dad complain about the management at his own job, and the second was working at a management firm and seeing the need to fix dysfunction from the inside out before adding even more projects to the list. [4:56] The Five Dysfunctions of a Team came out in 2002; Pat explains why his books tend to sell better over time. They are short, compelling, and there are truth and soundness in the model. People discover that the methods work and spread the information by word of mouth. [6:53] Pat has been a writer from his early adolescent days, and he was the first to go to college in his family. He took his love of writing to creating and developing books where he could help others and give them permission to be authentic. [12:01] The team’s performance is what matters most. We must care about the team’s overall performance first and foremost and yet it is common for employees to defend their own department. [14:13] There are moments where we do need to defend our team because we think it is for the overall good of the mission. The key is to be transparent about the need to defend your department and upfront about why you feel this way. [17:19] We build trust by showing others that we are vulnerable and take accountability for our actions. It is important to create a culture where leadership displays vulnerability for others to model and show that it does get rewarded. [20:12] Pat names his company’s core values, which he later discovered were the prerequisites to overcoming the five dysfunctions: Be humble, hungry to go above and beyond, and smart about how you treat people and how it impacts them. [23:37] When it comes to organizational health and a culture that breeds pride, just because it’s not quantifiable or tangible doesn’t mean it’s doesn’t make a huge difference. [31:39] We must slow down to go fast. The more we detach from our adrenaline addiction, the more time and space we have to create the life we really want. [35:42] Pat got sage advice early on to not let work get in the way of his family and involvement at home.

Cara Miller doesn't choose when and where to make inquiry about her impact – she's awake to her purpose every day, and using her coaching skills to help others make better sense of the world, become more useful, and be of greater service.   And when Cara is working with other businesses, she's sometimes the only person who is, in the moment, aware of the ultimate benefactors of that work. Whether you work at an investment firm or in food service, there is someone being directly impacted by what you do.   The simple fact that you're using your gift has an impact on others, no matter what your gift is, and being aware of the multiple impacts of your gift can provide you with a great sense of fulfillment and gratitude, regardless of your role.   Too often, we get stuck in the middle, stuck in the minute-by-minute stuff that we're doing, and we forget the people who are impacting us and the people being impacted by our actions.   So if you ever find yourself getting stuck there, take a moment to pause and recalibrate. Cara suggests holding onto three things, as they are here and now:   The me. Can you stay in your physical body? Can you take a look at your sense, your judgements, your conclusions, your thinking? The we. What is going in on the space between you and everyone else? What is happening? What is the dynamic? Can you empathize with the shared experience? The thee. Can you connect and check in with where the spirit is present now? What is the spirit up to? Where is the spirit moving? Where is source? How is it moving here and how can we join that? What is God up to in this?   “I am trying, with everything in me, to hold tight to what's going on in me right now, what's going in with us right now, and what's going on with the spirit right now so that I might join more fully with all of those layers.” And the closer you can do this to the moment the more effective it will be.   Cara shares another important mantra and exercise during this conversation, useful for when you need a reminder that your circumstances don't define you.   It all starts with a simple question: Are you approaching the world as if it's happening to you or it's happening for you?   It can be a lonely and crippling thought that world is happening to you, falling on you, defining you, and limiting you. That line of thinking can also cause you to lose all responsibility and agency toward your actions.   If you can, instead, see that everything happening is creating opportunities for you to become an actor, influencer, and impacting force in the world, your perspective changes – all responsibility comes back to you, you have agency in every move you make, and you have to actively construct the way you move in the world.   And you can use this line of inquiry at any time, in any situation. It's simple, sure – but powerful.   If you are interested in bringing more of this kind of inquiry into your organization or life, check out what Cara has to offer at inquiryp.com.   --     Resources: Learn more at http://www.inquiryp.com/ (inquiryp.com) Connect with Cara: Facebook | Instagram Visioneering: God's Blueprint for Developing and Maintaining Personal Vision by Andy Stanley In Over Our Heads: The Mental Demands of Modern Life by Robert Kegan The Ideal Team Player: How to Recognize and Cultivate The Three Essential Virtues by Patrick Lencioni Aspire: Discovering Your Purpose Through the Power of Words by Kevin Hall   --   We are brought to you by the Lawton Marketing Group, a full-service advertising and design agency serving companies and entrepreneurs at all levels.

Patrick Lencioni is the founder of The Table Group and the bestselling author of 11 books. He is the architect of organizational health, a concept that he calls the last competitive advantage in business today.   Pat's passion for leadership and organizational health can be traced all the way to his first exposure to business as a child, when his dad lamented about working for a company with “bad management.”   Pat didn't really know what management was at the time, but he knew that it was a bummer for his dad – and he eventually learned, after starting his first job, that that was dysfunction.   “I'm passionate about helping organizations not be dysfunctional so that people like my dad don't have to suffer through it, because we spend too many hours at work for it to be dysfunctional.”   Pat's dad always wanted him to get a great job, and he did! He got the best job of anyone in his graduating class… and he was bored. “I was so un-attracted to data and analysis, and I was fascinated by the human beings I saw. I was watching really intelligent people make fundamental mistakes because of human behavior, ego, and things like that,” and he realized that he could help.   In Patrick's most recent book, The Ideal Team Player: How to Recognize and Cultivate The Three Essential Virtues, he aims to help individuals make a difference in their own teams.   Pat identifies the three virtues that make some people better team players than others:   Humility - If pride is the root of all sin, then humility is the antidote. “And human beings are attracted to others that are not tied up in themselves.” Hunger - If you want to be a great team player, you have to be the kind of person who works really hard. That doesn't mean be a workaholic, but if you're going to do something, do it well. Emotional Intelligence - You need common sense around other people; you have to understand how what you say impacts others, be sensitive to their needs, and consider what they're thinking.   “If you are emotionally intelligent, hard working, and humble, your career will have no problems. I promise!” --     Resources: Learn more at https://www.tablegroup.com/ (TheTableGroup.com) Connect with Pat: LinkedIn | https://twitter.com/patricklencioni (Twitter) Join Patrick for the Inaugural Organizational Health Summit (May 10, 2018) --   We are brought to you by the Lawton Marketing Group, a full service advertising and design agency serving companies and entrepreneurs at all levels.
