In this episode of Foresight 5, Steve Moran and Dennis McIntee dive into crucial leadership strategies for senior living professionals. The conversation explores the importance of creating great experiences for residents, team members, and families, along with the challenges posed by regulations, feedback culture, and fostering collaboration. Top Takeaways: Feedback as Information: Feedback is not personal—it's information about someone's perspective. Leaders must focus on fostering emotionally mature teams that can handle and grow from constructive feedback. Ownership Culture: Excuses hinder progress. Leaders should ask reflective questions to help team members see, own, and address problems. Regulation as Opportunity: Instead of using regulations as excuses, adopt a mindset of "How can we still achieve great results within these boundaries?" Process Over Vision: Mission and vision are important but don't overshadow the day-to-day processes and habits that drive real change. Reframing Niceness: Being "nice" in leadership shouldn't come at the cost of excellence. Focus on serving residents and families through hiring and retaining top talent. Self-Directed Teams: Empowering teams to take ownership creates better experiences for everyone involved, fostering a stronger organizational culture.

Today I'm talking with Dennis McIntee of the Leadership Development Group. Dennis and I met through Jonathan Milligan and his programs. Since then, I have enjoyed keeping up with Dennis and his projects. Dennis literally wrote the book on drama-free teams. It is titled The 8 Qualities of Drama Free Teams: Do More. Stress Less. Zero Drama. He still does this kind of work today as he helps organizations and leaders eliminate the drama from work and get more results. As I was developing my Encore Career, Dennis repeatedly asked me one question: “What is your fastest path to cash?” He told me that that was what I had to focus on as I built my business. This principle holds true for anyone creating an Encore Career. In this episode, Dennis and I discuss the stories we tell ourselves. If you've ever felt like your thoughts or mindset were getting in your way, tune in. Dennis will encourage you and teach you some great insights on overcoming these obstacles of the mind. We'll dive deeper into these concepts: How the stories we tell ourselves and others can help us or create unhelpful drama Why believing that I or anyone else can help you is much less important than believing that you can do it Why knowing who is more important than knowing how Retirement means being “put out of use” Why we should think of retirement as a time to “refire” and put our knowledge, skills, and experiences to use Now, for some action steps: Visit Dennis' website: https://leadershipdevgroup.com/ Get Dennis' book, The 8 Qualities of Drama Free Teams: https://www.amazon.com/Qualities-Drama-Free-Teams-Stress-ebook/dp/B00UXF5Q7E Download the free worksheet: Three Steps You Need for a More Productive Workday Take the Encore Career Clarity Quiz Connect with Me: LinkedIn Facebook Please leave a Rating and Review: Since this podcast is new, I'm asking for Apple Podcasts reviews.
