My guest for Episode #299 of the My Favorite Mistake podcast is Luis Velasquez, an executive coach in Silicon Valley and a Stanford Graduate School of Business facilitator. He's also the founder of Velas Consulting. Episode page with video, transcript, and more Once a university professor and research scientist, Luis helps mid-level managers to C-suite executives around the world learn, adapt, grow, and thrive by helping them how to reframe their challenges and take the most beneficial next step.  His new book, available now, is Ordinary Resilience: Rethinking How Effective Leaders Adapt And Thrive. Luis is a contributor to Harvard Business Review and Fast Company, and was featured in best-selling author Dorie Clark's book, The Long Game. An avid endurance athlete, he runs marathons, ultra marathons, and ironman triathlons.  In today's episode, Luis shares his journey from being a university professor and research scientist to becoming a trusted leadership coach in Silicon Valley and a facilitator for the Stanford Graduate School of Business. Luis discusses his new book, Ordinary Resilience: Rethinking How Effective Leaders Adapt and Thrive, and outlines his unique resilience formula—commitment plus persistence multiplied by optimism. He explains that resilience isn't about bouncing back but about unlocking the inherent ability to adapt and thrive by continuously reframing challenges and learning from experiences. Luis also opens up about a significant mistake in his coaching career. He recounts a time when he delivered 360-degree feedback in a way that was too direct and decontextualized, which led a client to become defensive and ultimately resulted in his contract being terminated. This experience taught him the importance of providing feedback within the context of an individual's aspirations and personal growth, rather than simply relaying raw perceptions. The conversation further explores his approach to transforming challenging personalities—like the so-called “brilliant jerks”—into effective leaders, and how embracing and learning from mistakes is key to unlocking resilience and driving both personal and professional growth. Questions and Topics: How long is an ultramarathon compared to a standard 26.1-mile marathon? Given your diverse career, what is your favorite mistake—and what did you learn from it? Should we express our degree of certainty when stating facts? How do you define resilience in leadership? How do you identify and connect with high-value, challenging employees—is it via referrals or direct outreach? How often do you coach not only the “brilliant jerk” but also intervene with their teams? What role does fear play as a catalyst for growth—is it simply about reframing it? Have you observed leaders effectively fostering optimism among their teams? What does “embrace the suck” mean to you, and why is it a pivotal concept in your book?

Luis Velasquez coaches leaders worldwide, guiding them to turn challenges into opportunities. He is the author of the best-selling book “Ordinary Resilience:  Rethinking How Effective Leaders Adapt and Thrive.” Luis shows how to unlock and strengthen innate resilience, preparing you to face whatever life throws your way. He's helped hundreds of leaders thrive throughout change, and now he's sharing his framework to help you do the same. With client accounts, personal anecdotes, and professional insight, Luis provides a roadmap you'll return to in every challenge you face. His strategic thinking is regularly published by the Harvard Business Review and Fast Company. He has been spotlighted in Forbes and books: Dorie Clark's "The Long Game." Tammy Gooler Loeb's “Work from the Inside Out” and Ludmilla Praslova's “The Canary Code.” Luis also facilitates professional development courses at the Stanford University Graduate School of Business. Luis is not only an advocate for resilience but a living testament to it. He was raised in poverty in Guatemala which was riddled by civil war at the time. When he came to the U.S. as a teenager to  learn English. Later, after going back to Guatemala, he returned to the U.S. attended college and  studied in earnest to get his Ph.D. in Botany. He became a tenure track college professor.  Then, tragedy struck. He was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Showing unparalleled commitment, persistence, and optimism, Luis survived. Today, he's an ultra-marathoner and Ironman triathlete, having tackled the Western States 100 Mile Endurance Run. Family lies at the heart of his drive. Together with his wife, they're raising two children whom they hope will become two kind, confident, and resilient humans, mirroring the principles he champions.

Rethink career success by testing, adapting, and staying open to unexpected opportunities.Career planning isn't as straightforward as we often assume—but according to Dorie Clark, that's actually a good thing. Instead of following a rigid path, she believes we should be “treating our careers like a series of experiments”—testing, iterating, and staying open to unexpected opportunities."People assume they need to have everything mapped out for the next twenty years," Clark explains. "But in reality, careers are built through testing, learning, and adapting—just like a scientific hypothesis."As a bestselling author and career strategist, Clark has spent years studying how professionals can future-proof their careers in an unpredictable world. She shares why informational interviews, LinkedIn strategy, and quarterly career check-ins are essential tools for anyone looking to make a career shift. “You don't want to be so mired in your plan that you can't take advantage of unexpected opportunities,” she says.In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Clark joins host Matt Abrahams to challenge traditional career advice and explore strategic personal branding, the power of weak ties in networking, and why “reinvention isn't a one-time event—it's a habit.”This episode is brought to you by LinkedIn.

Steve Dennis: Leaders Leap Steve Dennis is a strategy consultant, advisor, speaker, and author focused on transformational leadership and the impact of digital disruption. He is the president of SageBerry Consulting and host of the Remarkable Retail podcast. He's the author of the book Remarkable Retail and his newest book Leaders Leap: Transforming Your Company at the Speed of Disruption*. Every leader needs to stay relevant in order to serve well. In this conversation, Steve and I explore the mindset and tactics that will help us lead in the context of an ever-changing world. Key Points Self-sufficiency is a virtue, until it's not. Learning to ask for help is a key practice for leaders. Be cautious about a deserving attitude. High expectations may be correlated with low resilience. Seek insight everywhere. It's no longer sufficient just to gain ideas from direct competitors. Turning pro means showing up and doing the work, especially when we don't feel like it. We must go through discomfort, not around it. Radical acceptance of truth will help you stay relevant in changing times.

Dorie Clark is a keynote speaker and teaches executive education at Columbia Business School. She is also the bestselling author of The Long Game, Entrepreneurial You, Reinventing You and Stand Out. A former presidential campaign spokeswoman, she writes frequently for the Harvard Business Review. In this episode, we dive into the complexities of balancing creativity, commerce, and personal reinvention. We explore the importance of creating "white space"—those necessary pauses for reflection and execution—in our busy lives. We discuss how society often stigmatizes conversations about money, leading to ignorance and limiting financial success, particularly in creative fields. We reflect on how we, as professionals, can find smarter ways to leverage our skills for both creative and financial growth. Our conversation touches on the value of self-worth, long-term thinking, and how the evolving post-pandemic landscape has reshaped the way we connect, work, and find meaning.

“Failure is not an option”, “success is key”… Have you often heard those types of “encouragements” from coaches, parents, teachers or your boss?  Yet, who has never failed? And more importantly, isn't it counter-productive to deny failure?  Today, I am glad to share a different and much more efficient conception as I received Amy Edmondson in the podcast as she just launched her new book “Right Kind of Wrong: The Science of Failing Well”. My discussion with her echoed the episode with Dorie Clark onthe concept of “Reinventing yourself”.

Have you ever stopped for a second and thought about all of the things you do at work in a week? There are some tasks most of us need to do to be successful at our jobs. But do you also find yourself doing other tasks like administrative work, planning and setting up for parties, or training new employees? And have these responsibilities started to take over your work days?   If so, you're not alone. These types of tasks are called “non-promotable tasks” and women volunteer for them far more often than men.  Dorie Clark's new book, The Long Game: How To Be A Long-Term Thinker In A Short-Term World delves into how the little tasks we do day to day at work may be harming our long-term career strategy. Chapters: 00:00: Introduction 02:57: Busyness as an Anesthetic 07:42: Defining Long-Term and Short-Term Thinking 14:56: The Importance of Saying No 18:32: Optimizing for Interesting 25:56: Career Waves and Making Smart Choices 28:51: Conclusion Takeaways: Non-promotable tasks, such as administrative work and planning office parties, can take up valuable time and prevent you from focusing on tasks that align with your long-term career goals. It is important to recognize and address overworking as a coping mechanism. Long-term thinking involves considering the big picture and making choices that optimize for interesting and meaningful work. Saying no can be challenging, but it is important to set boundaries and prioritize tasks that align with personal and professional goals. Asking important questions, such as the total cost and physical/emotional impact of a task, can help evaluate requests and make informed decisions. Navigating different phases of a career involves transitioning between learning, sharing, connecting, and reaping phases, and being willing to disrupt oneself to avoid stagnation.

Welcome back to the Hello Monday Master Class! We've distilled the essence of hundreds of conversations into five essential rules that will empower you to thrive in an ever-changing professional landscape. Welcome to our final week! This week, we'll take a look at the role of time - and even more importantly, at the role of long term thinking - in achieving our biggest and sometimes scariest goals. In this episode, we learn from Dorie Clark. Dorie is widely known as an author, a speaker, and a professor. She's a powerful business thinker, and she's currently pursuing a totally new dream. Dorie's writing a musical she hopes will land on Broadway and to do this, she's is putting her own advice into practice. She has set a goal for herself on a ten-year timeline. She's a little more than halfway through that decade right now, and she has a lot to teach us about how to make big strides on a long time-horizon. There's no wishful thinking here; instead, Dorie teaches us how to make big swings seem like practical and achievable ambitions. For this week's exercise, we're leaning into our biggest and most ambitious dreams. What's something you want to achieve that seems worth ten years of your attention and hard work? You'll know you're on the right track if you feel vaguely terrified. When you've got it, head over to our free Hello Monday group on LinkedIn and share that big goal on our week five post. For a little help in finding your week five goal, here is a link to our Dream Job exercise. Dorie has appeared on Hello Monday a few times - you can check out her previous episodes here and here.

Plus, we explore the most helpful mindsets to help you get the most out of coaching. Key Points Leaders who create value at moments of inflection really need a coach. Two common reasons leaders seek coaching: (1) getting support with an issue that's tough to navigate and (2) accelerating their leadership growth.
