Welcome back to Season 12 of the Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning podcast, where we connect the science-based evidence behind social and emotional learning and emotional intelligence training for improved well-being, achievement, productivity, and results using practical neuroscience. In Episode 344, we continue with our 18-week self-leadership series, diving into Chapter 14 of Grant Bosnick's book to explore the neuroscience of resiliency. We revisit past episodes with Horacio Sanchez to understand the factors that contribute to resilience and discuss the intriguing analogies presented by Bosnick, including the donkey in the well and the carrot, egg, and coffee bean story. Learn how to build resilience within yourself and your teams by focusing on Patrick Lencioni's five functions of a high-performing team. Discover how developing willpower, a crucial faculty of the mind, can enhance your ability to overcome adversity. We also delve into new research on the anterior mid-cingulate cortex, a brain region associated with willpower and resilience. Join us as we uncover strategies to harness resilience, strengthen our brains, and emerge stronger from life's challenges. Don't miss this insightful episode that equips you with the tools to face adversity head-on and lead with resilience. On today's EPISODE #344 “The Neuroscience of Resilience: Building Stronger Minds and Teams” we will cover: ✔ A review of past EP 74 and EP 286 on “Building Resiliency, Grit and Mental Toughness” ✔ A review of Horacio Sanchez's work on resiliency: protective vs risk factors. ✔ Ch. 14 from Grant Bosnick's Tailored Approaches to Self-Leadership book with 2 intriguing analogies presented by Bosnick, including the donkey in the well and the carrot, egg, and coffee bean story. ✔ Learn how to build resilience within yourself and your teams by focusing on Patrick Lencioni's five functions of a high-performing team. Discover how developing willpower, a crucial faculty of the mind, can enhance your ability to overcome adversity. ✔ Discover how developing willpower, a crucial faculty of the mind, can enhance your ability to overcome adversity. ✔ We also delve into new research on the anterior mid-cingulate cortex, a brain region associated with willpower and resilience. For Today, EPISODE #344, we are moving on to Chapter 14, reviewing “The Neuroscience of Resiliency,” a topic we have covered a few times on this podcast, way back with Horacio Sanchez, who named his Educational Consulting Business Resiliency Inc. back on EP #74[i] and then we did a deep dive Brain Fact Friday on EP #286 “Building Resiliency, Grit and Mental Toughness.”[ii] On this episode we reviewed Horacio Sanchez's definition of resiliency as “a collection of protective risk factors that you have in your life” and that there are some factors we are born with, and others come in through childhood, family, school, life events and social experiences. Horacio reminds us that “if you have little risk, it takes less to be resilient. But—if you have a lot of risk, it takes a lot more protective factors to offset the scale.” This is why two people can possibly respond in two completely different ways after a traumatic experience. One person walks away, dusts themselves off, and recovers quickly, (they had more reservoirs of resilience to tap into) while the other has a completely different outcome, and needs more assistance to get back on track. With resiliency, we can overcome adversity or difficulty and have good outcomes in our life, but you can see why not everyone is born with exactly the same protective factors needed, so we don't all have the same levels of resiliency. Horacio mentioned that “25% of the population are naturally resilient” and his work focuses on instilling this trait in those who are not naturally resilient due to the number of risk factors associated to them. To this day, he continues with his mission, flying around the country, helping our next generation of students to become more resilient. Resiliency came out as a low priority for me with the with 0% (Pathway 5) along with Change and Agility, and it makes more sense to me now that I understand the protective and risk factors that I faced growing up as a child, from my family, from school, life and social events. When I review the list, I can see that I was fortunate to have more protective factors, than risk. IMAGE FROM EP 74 with Horacio Sanchez. If you've taken the leadership self-assessment[iii], look to see if Resilience (in Pathway 5) along with change and agility, is of a low, medium or high priority for you to focus on this year. If you haven't listened to EP 74, or 286, where we dove deeper into the building resiliency, grit and mental toughness, I highly encourage that you listen to both of these episodes, in addition to what we will uncover today on resiliency. So what does Grant Bosnick have to say about building resilience in ourselves, and our teams in chapter 14 of his book? He opens up the chapter with a situation with a farmer and his donkey, who had fallen into a hole in the ground, (a well) and couldn't get out. Finally, after trying to get the donkey out, he gave up, and decided to shovel dirt into the well, since the donkey was old, and not worth saving. At first Grant writes that the donkey cried with the dirt being shoveled onto him, until he eventually stopped and was quiet. When the farmer looked into the hole he was amazed at what he saw. With each shovel of dirt, the donkey would shake it off his back, and use the dirt to climb up higher, until he was able to easily step out of the hole and trot off happily. What Grant is showing us at the start of this chapter is that we all will have dirt shoveled on our backs in our life, and “that we can either get buried in the dirt or shake it off and take a step up. Each adversity we face is a stepping stone, and we can get out of the deepest wells by shaking off the dirt and taking a step up.” (Chapter 14, Resilience, Bosnick, Page 160). There was another analogy in Grant's book that I liked, about a carrot, an egg and a cup of coffee. The story went like this. There was a young woman who went to her mother one day, complaining the things were difficult for her with her life. Her mother took her into the kitchen and filled three pots with water, and placed them on the elements, bringing each one to a boil. One pot she placed carrots in, the second, an egg and the third one, coffee beans. After 20 minutes, she asked her daughter what she saw. Her mother's explanation was eye-opening. She explained to her daughter that “each of these objects faced the same adversity—boiling water. Each reacted differently. The carrot went in strong, hard and unrelenting. However, after being subjected to the boiling water, it was softer and became weak. The egg was fragile…but after being in the boiling water, it's inside became hardened. The ground coffee beans were unique, however. (Bosnick writes that) after being in the boiling water, they changed the water…(and the mother asked her daughter) when adversity faces you, how do you respond? Are you a carrot, an egg or a coffee bean?” (Chapter 14, Resilience, Bosnick, Page 161). Grant asks the reader of his book to think about this question. Which one would you pick? “Are you the carrot that seems strong but with pain and adversity (wilted) and became soft, losing its strength? Are you the egg that starts with a soft heart, but hardens with the heat? Or are you like the coffee bean that actually changes the hot water, the very circumstance that (brought) the pain?” (Chapter 14, Resilience, Bosnick, Page 161). I'm hoping that we all desire to experience change with the adversity we face. Bosnick gives two real-life examples of famous people who took their pain, and changed for the better, because of it. Terry Fox, a distance runner from British Columbia, Canada was his first example and Kawhi (Ka-why) Leonard, a professional basketball player from the NBA. You can look up these stories, if you don't know them already. Growing up in Canada, I remember Terry Fox's story well. Terry Fox took the pain of a cancer diagnosis that led to one of his legs being amputated and replaced with an artificial leg, and rather than giving up, or becoming hard or soft, he changed the situation with his Marathon of Hope. It was “first held in 1981, and has now grown to involve millions of participants in over 60 countries and is now the world's largest one-day fundraiser for cancer research, with over $750 million Canadian dollars raised in his name.” (Chapter 14, Resilience, Bosnick, Page 162). Bosnick reminds us that “resilience is not only about bouncing back from adversity, but rather it is about surviving and thriving through the stress caused by the adversity, and changing our situation to make it better.” (Chapter 14, Resilience, Bosnick, Page 162). Building Resilience in Ourselves and Then with Our Teams After Bosnick focused on building resilience in ourselves, he went on to show how to build resilience in our teams, and he mentioned a book, that we have recently talked about with mediation expert John Ford, from EP 340.[iv] I love making connections with past episodes, and when I read Bosnick mention The Five Dysfunctions of a Team by Patrick Lencioni[v], I went straight back to that episode with John Ford. In chapter 14, Bosnick outlines “the five dysfunctions of teams: absence of trust, fear of conflict, lack of commitment, avoidance of accountability, and inattention to results. (Next he outlines) the five functions of a high performing team: trust, absence of fear of conflict, commitment, accountability and attention to results.” (Chapter 14, Resilience, Bosnick, Page 170). Bosnick writes that “when we feel accountable and have attention to results, we adopt a mindset or attitude of control, which enables us to take direct, hands-on action to transform changes, adversities and the problems that they may cause…If we believe that we can influence the outcome of an adverse situation, we are more apt to push ourselves to deal with it. If the opposite is true, we may question our ability to turn adversity around and stop trying.” (Chapter 14, Resilience, Bosnick, Page 171). When I think of a recent time that I faced adversity, and had to be resilient in the process, if I didn't think it would be possible for me to be successful, there is no way I would have persevered. Each individual on a team must have this mindset, as they go through change and adversity. The focus must be on Lencioni's work: “building a high functioning team—with trust, absence of fear of conflict, commitment, accountability and attention to results—(that) will lead to proactive behaviors and increase our own (personal) resilience and the resilience in our team.” (Chapter 14, Resilience, Bosnick, Page 171). Bosnick offers a reflection activity in Chapter 14 where he asks the reader to: Think of an adverse situation that you are facing at the moment (could be in your work or personal life). Consider how this situation is making you feel. I'm going to add that if you feel like the situation is in control of you, then you are not going to win. You' ve got to be confident that YOU are in control of whatever it is that you are going through. How can you adopt a more prosocial mindset to see the adversity as opportunity to make things better for yourself and others? Thinking of the carrots, the egg and the coffee bean. What will it take to get you to become the coffee bean? How can you help yourself and your team to be more high functioning? Thinking of Lencioni's 5 Dysfunctions of a Team, how will you help your team to move towards trust, absence of fear of conflict, commitment, accountability and attention to results? Developing Our Will to Overcome Adversity: What will it REALLY take for you to become more resilient and overcome adversity? It will take a highly developed Will Power. We have talked about how to develop this faculty of our mind on EP #294[vi] where we dove deep into the 6 Faculties of our Mind, with our Will Power being one of them. I do highly recommend listening to this episode if you want to review these important faculties. Since I can always use a refresher myself, I'll highlight what we covered on this important faculty that we will need to develop, to overcome adversity. YOUR WILL: This is one of my favorite faculties. (out of the 6: along with our ability to reason, use our intuition, perception, memory and imagination). This one (The use of the Will) gives you the ability to concentrate. While sitting down to write this episode, I've gotten up from my desk a few times, but I'm determined to finish writing this, so I can record and release this today. That's the will at work. You can also use the will to hold a thought on the screen of your mind, or choose thoughts of success, over thoughts of failure. OR-use the power of your Will to overcome the adversity you face, like Terry Fox, or Kawhi (Ka-why) Leonard. If you have a highly evolved will, you'll lock into doing something, block out all distractions, and accomplish what you set out to do. HOW TO DEVELOP THIS FACULTY TO OVERCOME CHALLENGE OR ADVERSITY? Developing the will takes practice. Meditation can strengthen your will, but so can staring at a candle flame until you and the flame become one. I tried this activity in my late 20s, and remember it was a few hours of staring at this candle flame, before I was able to block out the distractions of the outside world, and the flame extended towards me. This faculty, like the others, takes time and practice, but once you've developed this faculty, you'll know you have the ability to sit, focus, and do anything. An extension of this activity would be that once you and the flame have become one, try to change the color of the flame. In your head say “blue, blue, blue” and watch the color of the flame turn to blue. Pick a different color and see if you can quickly change the color of the flame from blue, to red, to orange, to whatever color you think of.” This activity will strengthen your will. BRINGING IN THE NEUROSCIENCE: It was here that I wondered what neuroscience has to say about this topic. We have covered The Neuroscience of Resiliency on past episodes, but we have not yet covered some new research that Dr. Andrew Huberman discovered this past year about what happens to our brain when we have a highly developed Will Power, that we will need to overcome adversity and challenge. This new research actually made famous scientist jump out of his chair. DID YOU KNOW that there is a part of the brain called “the Anterior mid cingulate cortex. This area is not just one of the seats of willpower but scientists think it holds the secret in “the will to live?”[vii] When I first heard about this part of the brain, I knew it was important for overcoming adversity, and helping us to become more resilient. Scientists discovered that this part in the brain increases in size when we do something we don't want do, like exercising when we would rather not, or diet or resist eating something we know is bad for us, when we would rather eat the old way. Dr. Huberman shared on this eye-opening episode with his guest, David Goggins that “when people do anything that they don't want to do, it's not about adding more work, it's about adding more work that you don't want to do, this brain area gets bigger.” This part of the brain is larger in athletes, larger in people who overcome challenge, and as long as people continue to “do difficult things” this area of the brain keeps its size. To me, this shows that building resilience in ourselves and our teams is not just good for whatever challenge we are looking to overcome, but we are building stronger, more resilient brains: specifically, stronger anterior mid cingulate cortexes. REVIEW AND CONCLUSION To review and conclude this week's episode #344 on “The Neuroscience Behind Building Resilience in Yourself and Your Teams” we covered: A review of EP 74 and 286 where we covered the Neuroscience of Resilience with Horacio Sanchez's work reminding us that our protective or risk factors in our lifetime, will determine how resilient we will be in our life. While 25% of the population are naturally resilient, Horacio asserts that “if you have little risk, it takes less to be resilient. But—if you have a lot of risk, it takes a lot more protective factors to offset the scale.” Horacio has dedicated his life to helping our next generation become more resilient. Next we looked at Grant Bosnick's book, Tailored Approaches to Self-Leadership (Chapter 14) where he gave us the analogy of the donkey who fell into the well, and demonstrated resiliency when he used the dirt shoveled on him, to climb out. This example taught us that we all will have dirt shoveled on our backs in our life, and “that we can either get buried in the dirt or shake it off and take a step up. Each adversity we face is a stepping stone, and we can get out of the deepest wells by shaking off the dirt and taking a step up.” (Chapter 14, Resilience, Bosnick, Page 160). Another analogy we learned was through the mother and daughter story, and that when adversity faces you, Bosnick asks us to reflect. “Are you the carrot that seems strong but with pain and adversity (wilted) and became soft, losing its strength? Are you the egg that starts with a soft heart, but hardens with the heat? Or are you like the coffee bean that actually changes the hot water, the very circumstance that (brought) the pain?” (Chapter 14, Resilience, Bosnick, Page 161). I'm hoping that we all desire to experience change with the adversity we face, like the coffee bean. After learning about building resiliency in ourselves, we learned about building resiliency within our teams, and looked at Patrick Lencioni's The Five Dysfunctions of a Team. The absence of trust, fear of conflict, lack of commitment, avoidance of accountability, and inattention to results. Then we learned to turn this around, using the five functions of a high performing team: trust, absence of fear of conflict, commitment, accountability and attention to results.” (Chapter 14, Resilience, Bosnick, Page 170). Then we looked at how we develop resiliency, using our Will Power from EP 294 where I shared an activity to strengthen this faculty of our mind either through meditation, or with an activity of staring at a candle flame, and with time, effort and sheer will power, blocking out everything else around you, until you and the candle flame become one. Finally, we looked at the fascinating new neuroscience behind the part of our brain (the anterior mid cingulate cortex) that becomes bigger when we use our will power to do those things we don't want to do. Scientists believe this ability to use our will power to do difficult things, which builds our resiliency, is what's really behind the will to live. I hope you've found this episode on building resilience in yourself and your teams as valuable as I have, and that when challenge comes our way in the future, that we continue to lean into it, using every ounce of our will power, and become a coffee bean, emerging stronger than the challenge we faced, and knowing that this process is building a part of our brain (our anterior mid cingulate cortex) to be bigger, helping us to continue to do difficult things in our future. With that thought, I'll close out this episode and see you next time, with two interviews coming, to help us to continue to build stronger versions of ourselves this year. I'll see you next week.

In this episode, Dr. Laura Sicola interviews Patrick Lencioni, author of The Five Dysfunctions of a Team and The Six Types of Working Genius. They discuss the importance of trust, vulnerability, and conflict in teams, as well as the six types of working genius. Patrick shares personal experiences and insights, providing valuable advice for effective communication and leadership. The conversation explores the five dysfunctions of a team, emphasizing the importance of trust, healthy conflict, commitment, accountability, and attention to results. It also delves into the significance of effective communication, vulnerability, and understanding individual working genius. Pat also shares insights on team dynamics, leadership, and the impact of dysfunctional behaviors on organizational success. In this episode you will learn: Trust and vulnerability are essential for effective team communication and collaboration. Conflict avoidance can hinder team progress and innovation. Constructive conflict is necessary for growth and improvement. Understanding the six types of working genius can help individuals and teams leverage their strengths and work together more effectively. Trust is the foundation of effective teamwork, and without it, healthy conflict and commitment cannot thrive. Healthy conflict is necessary for teams to address issues openly and make decisions that everyone can commit to. Lack of commitment leads to passive agreement, which results in a lack of accountability and inattention to results. Avoidance of accountability hinders team performance and requires peers to hold each other accountable for behaviors and commitments. Inattention to results occurs when individuals prioritize their department's success over the collective success of the organization, leading to dysfunctional team dynamics.

Today, we're continuing our conversation around the gender pay gap. Last week, we delved into the complexities of this issue, and now I want to look to the future and how we can close it. I'm going to share five actionable steps you can take to drive equality, whether you're tackling it individually or organisationally. Step 1: Building the Business Case for Gender Equality:We know how beneficial gender equality will be for women, but businesses exist to make money. If we want them to work towards gender equality, we'll need a clear outline of the ways it can benefit them. One consistent finding for research has been that diversity drives better decisions that lead to increased productivity and profitability. In short: organisations with diversity perform better.Step 2: Securing Leadership Commitment:Leaders have a strong influence on workplace culture, so if they aren't on board with new initiatives, they can easily fail. This is why it's essential to get leadership committed to gender equity strategies. Then they can set clear objectives, supply resources, and act as a role model, which sets the stage for success.Step 3: Developing a Comprehensive Strategy:Once you have a strong business case and leadership on board, you'll need a comprehensive strategy for addressing the gender pay gap. Start by thinking about the current state of the organisation and the specific considerations it will need. It's more than just “how can we close the gender pay gap”. It could be how can we mainstream flexible working? How can we promote professional development in our team? How can we apply a gender lens to our policies? Identifying these focus areas is a crucial step in building a more inclusive and diverse workplace.Step 4: Fostering an Inclusive and Supportive Culture:Many people are uncomfortable with change, but this doesn't mean we should leave them behind. Taking the time to have thoughtful honest conversations can show people the way forward isn't scary but beneficial for everyone. This requires a strong foundation of trust that allows people to ask questions and be authentic.Step 5: Continuous Monitoring and Accountability:Continuous monitoring and accountability are key components in closing the gender pay gap. If we aren't paying attention to our progress, it's easy to fall off track completely and not realise it for a long time. We need businesses to set ambitious goals and to speak openly and frequently about them.By embracing these actionable steps, organisations and individuals can create a more inclusive, equitable, and diverse workplace. So let's continue this journey together, striving for a better future.Resources:WGEA Gender Equality Strategy Guide - https://www.wgea.gov.au/sites/default/files/documents/2019_WGEA_GE_Strategy_Guide.pdf Five Dysfunctions of a Team - https://www.amazon.com.au/Five-Dysfunctions-Team-Leadership-Fable/dp/8126522747Connect With Me:Exceptional Leadership Framework: https://www.rebeccabangura.com/5-step-framework-to-exceptional-leadershipBook your strategy call: https://calendly.com/rebeccabangura/get_in_touchWebsite: https://www.rebeccabangura.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rebeccabangura/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/iamrebeccabangura/

In this episode, Dan connects with business strategist, executive coach, exit strategy specialist, and counselor to leaders in industry and government, Carri Nicholson. As The Leader Whisperer™, Carri knows how to help CEOs understand the pitfalls and obstacles that cause businesses to stall or fizzle out before achieving next-level growth or profitable exit. Her decades of experience advising leaders - first alongside her father as a business consultant, then as an officer and diplomat in the British army, and later as a CEO in her own right - have given her a comprehensive understanding of leadership. She and Dan talk about the challenges she faced as a woman in the UK, taking on leadership roles in the Army and the private sector, and how the power of human connections is one reason she succeeded. They talk about leadership; her observations of world leaders from playing a key role in the Middle East peace process; how CEOs manage teams and projects to scale a business end to end; and how you can become efficient at leading and becoming an effective leader. This 90-minute session with Carri is full of useful insights, in-depth analysis based on practical experiences, conclusions based on factual data, and online resources and recommendations that would be a great asset to anyone interested in expanding their leadership skills.

Notable Quotes “Things that the Army really did teach me is that even when you are in a position of command, you don't know everything. And I saw so many young officers fail. Because they assumed that having the rank gave them the knowledge.” – Carrie (22:45) “If you've come from a STEM background, you are taught and you've been drawn into that because of your personality types, you are taught that perfection is everything. What that actually means is that it can lead to procrastination because you are constantly in search of the ideal rather than the good enough, and you put off making decisions because of that.” – Carrie (1:04:17) “There's always that period of time where you think that the symbol that you have on your collar or on your or on your shoulder entitles you to just tell people what to do. There are rules, but you're not going to make it very long in your space or you're not going to ever get promoted. You're not going to move forward. You're just not going to be successful in achieving your project objectives, if you don't learn how to lead and don't learn fast.” Dan (23:54) “Managing people means managing their emotions and behaviors, and that is something that STEM leaders can find very, very challenging and what that means is that they struggle to build functional teams. And linked into that is a communication thing. Understanding how people communicate and how to communicate your particular values and your ethos and the behaviors that you expect to see happen. And so there's a whole quadrant on the wheel, which is about understanding that you can build teams in a better way and they don't have to be dysfunctional.” Carrie (1:08:11) “Don't beat yourself up, guys. Because to get as far any leader to even survive a year is beating the odds. All you need is the boost to get to the next level. But you can't do that by yourself. So if it's not me, find somebody. Yeah, because everybody needs somebody in their corner.” Carrie (1:31:00) About Carri Nicholson Carri Nicholson specializes in helping CEOs address blind spots that many small business leaders face when scaling their businesses. An entrepreneur herself, she's also a former British Army officer with decades of experience dealing with leaders in the military, political, and business arenas. Now, as The Leader Whisperer™, she's turned her deep understanding of management and leadership into programs that help small business owners and CEOs to become big business owners and CEOs.

Office politics exist in virtually all organisations in the world. They often get a bad rep because, more often than not, people use them to push their agendas or grow their power and influence. But what are they, and what's their role in today's office environment? First, workplace politics are defined as the complex social structure of a workplace. They involve team members using their powers, authority, and delegation to push personal agendas. The thing you need to understand here is that workplace politics can be difficult to navigate. And while they have their flaws, you'll be better off being able to navigate them efficiently. Despite all the negative attributes around office politics, they are not inherently evil. At the end of the day, most people only want influence, relationships, and the power that comes with it. Furthermore, all of us play some form of politics; we just subtly engage in it. So, if you're starting out in your career or have joined a new organisation and think it's best to sit out politics, you're in for a rude surprise. Our guest for today, Dr. Mira Brancu, believes that sitting out of office politics is probably the worst thing you can do for your career. She believes that despite the potential for exploitation and misuse, there are healthy ways to navigate the murky waters of office politics. Tune in as she shares insights into how to navigate office politics, the myths around office politics, and so much more.

OVERVIEW: Jason A. Duprat, Entrepreneur, Healthcare Practitioner, and Host of the Healthcare Entrepreneur Academy podcast, shares useful tips on how to set up an operating system for your business. Jason is implementing the Entrepreneurial Operation System (EOS) which is based on the book Traction, by Gino Wickman. He paints the picture for getting started with this patented process and also shares the lesson of putting rocks, pebbles, and sand into a jar to demonstrate business priorities. EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS: HEA has grown over the last few years and Jason has realized he needs to implement a system to streamline communications, operations, and priorities. EOS has been used by his colleagues KC Devine and Eric Ehle, as well as his new digital marketer. This system is a patented process for companies with 10-250 employees and adds structure. The learning and implementation process will take 1-2 years. The framework is to understand and communicate the vision, mission, and goals of your business with your team. Jason shares the example of a jar with rocks, pebbles, and sand. The rocks are quarterly goals and go into the jar first. The pebbles are the second tier and they go in next. The sand represents daily tasks and they go in last. In this order, you can fit all elements into the jar i.e. operate efficiently. Jason started out as a solopreneur and now has 21 contractors around the world. He recommends setting up a system when your team grows to 2-3 people versus waiting until later. Meetings are necessary. They move the business forward and they're vital to the growth of your business and team. 3 KEY POINTS: Setting up an operating system will help you manage a growing team with greater efficiency and clarify priorities. The only way to grow is to grow a team. The sooner you implement systems, the easier it is to manage growing pains. You must communicate your vision, mission, and goals to the team. Goals are the equivalent of rocks and should be the top priority, with second-tier goals (pebbles) and daily tasks (sand) supporting the goals. They all work together.

“I think the X Factor is empathy, right? I think they have to be able to see the world from the perspective of their employees...You came up through the ranks being the hero in your own head, you got promoted, because you are the hero, you are the expert, right? But when you're a leader, your team wants to be the hero of the story.” - Scott Drake Welcome to another week of Tactical Leader!

As leaders, we spend a lot of time thinking about how to take our businesses to the next level. However, we’ll never be truly successful if we aren’t paying attention to what’s going on outside our businesses. Our personal relationships have a bigger impact on our success than we may realize. If we let our families, marriages, and relationships with loved ones fall by the wayside, we’re only doing ourselves a disservice. That being said, it’s not always easy juggling time with loved ones when we’re running time-intensive businesses. How can we give our relationships the time and dedication they deserve while establishing successful teams? Is it possible to blend the two effectively? In this episode, coaches at Titan Elite Coaching and husband and wife team, Dr. Sheri Fluellen and JP Fluellen share what it takes to achieve holistic success. Three Things You’ll Learn In This Episode - Why our love language isn’t the only one to learn We all have our own love languages, but it’s important to remember that ours isn’t necessarily the same as our spouse’s. When we learn what will fill their ‘love banks’, we can show our affections more effectively. - The importance of being intentional Intentionality is non-negotiable for successful relationships. We all need to be mindful of how we’re showing up for our spouses, friends, family and even team members and focus on being present with them. - How to establish a healthier dynamic with our loved ones Strong relationships require both parties to be vulnerable about their needs, insecurities and triggers. They also require the other person to listen to those vulnerabilities and remember them for the future. Guest Bio- Dr Sheri Fluellen is a consulting psychologist, licensed Realtor and high performance coach at Titan Elite Coaching. Having spent the past 18 years in the business of changing people’s lives, Sheri is passionate about helping real estate investors, brokers and agents achieve their full potential in all areas of life.

Building cohesive teams is not something that happens overnight. There is no magic bullet. It takes time, effort, and the laying of a solid foundation built on trust and many other leadership principles. To discuss this topic, I’ve hand-picked a panel of leaders with a demonstrated track record of building cohesive teams. Joining me from the healthcare industry are leaders Eileen McCay, Jim Lajeunesse, and Matt McDonald. Key Takeaways:Firstly, build mutual respect and trust within the team Hire a very diverse team; people who think differently from you and each other Be a leader who genuinely cares but also brings tough love when needed Demonstrate vulnerability by admitting mistakes. This will foster an environment of trust Set clear expectations, at the individual and team level, on how to approach each other as a team Set high standards for your team Part of the having great team unity involves team members who engage in healthy conflict with each other There's a lot of work that goes on behind the scenes at the individual level that builds to the greater collective Identify and leverage your people's strengths If there's a problem on the team, there is an expectation that you, as the leader, will fix it. And fix it soon!

A lot of team leaders choose to stick with traditional brokerage models but it’s not always the best choice for our business. Creating a non-traditional brokerage model can help us create a working environment where everybody wins. Traditional brokerages typically stop team leaders from offering certain incentives, causing top agents to look elsewhere to advance their careers. This causes a lot of team leaders to train agents for retention, rather than to allow them to survive on their own. Is there an option that allows team leaders to invest in their agents, without the threat of losing them to other teams? On this episode, host of the Massive Agent Podcast, Dustin Brohm joins me to discuss how to maximize our businesses with non-traditional brokerages. Three Things You’ll Learn In This Episode - Choose the system where everyone winsNon-traditional brokerages like eXp and Keller Williams allow team leaders to bring agents into the brokerage and keep them in their downline. This means that even if the agent chooses to leave the team but stay in the brokerage, leaders will continue to benefit from their success - and the agent continues to benefit from great training. - Invest in the futureNon-traditional models allow team leaders to benefit from their downlines, even if they choose to retire - or in the event they pass away. Models like this are willable, so team leaders taking this route can plan for their futures and provide for their families. - Stay in controlOne of the major reasons so many team leaders stay with traditional brokerages is because they want to ensure they have control over their agents’ activities. In a non-traditional model, we can encourage agents to participate in training and workshops by offering leads as an incentive. Guest Bio- Dustin Brohm is the host of the Massive Agent Podcast and Co-Founder of the Industry Syndicate real estate podcast network. Dustin was a finalist for the 2019 Inman Innovator of the Year Award and he has spoken on stage at Gary Vaynerchuk’s Agent2021, Inman Connect, HousingWire, and more.

We don't talk about it in this episode but Neil is drinking Samuel Grant Whiskey and Coke and I'm drinking the greatest beer known to man, Guinness (https://www.guinness.com/en-us/). COVID-19 and Quarantine sucks, but this time we try to focus on the good things! Couple of things mentioned: * Patrick Lencioni's "The Five Dysfunctions of a Team" (https://www.amazon.com/Five-Dysfunctions-Team-Leadership-Fable/dp/0787960756) Quick and fantastic read for anyone who works in teams or leads teams. * Office Space (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0151804/) a movie from 1999 that we reference and from whence all the sound bites came from. Enjoy this one! Hope you are all well, and that the resurrection in all of this is that our faith grows, our families grow, and we embrace Trust and conflict in our relationship with God.

As the original leader of Infusionsoft’s "Built to Last" efforts, Brett spent 10 years helping Infusionsoft grow from less than $10M to over $100M in revenue. Brett's roles at Infusionsoft included: Built to Last Champion, Strategic Advisor to the CEO, VP of Infusionsoft, and VP of Leadership Development.

When he isn't busy serving Elite businesses, Brett loves family life with his beautiful wife, Sharon, and their 8 children! Some of the topics that Brett and I discussed in this episode are: The five (5) stages of a small business. The definition of each of the five stages.

Brandon didn't sleep because of his now-public job search, triggering latent insecurities. They parse the difference between "idiosyncratic workplace" and "broken-ass shitshow". Chris explains the process that gives him such high tolerance for workplace idiosyncrasies. Brandon explains why having a "no-asshole rule" is a red flag. Chris explains the economics behind prepaying to get shit-faced on your next cruise.

Designers, developers, marketers, operations and finance are just a sampling of the parties that are coming together to make digital products for enterprises. As you can imagine (and have probably experienced), getting these often separate groups of people to march in the same direction can be difficult. On this episode, we talk with Director of Product Design, Christy Ennis-Kloote & Connected Products & Data Analytics Practice Lead, Aaron Kamphuis about the pitfalls some digital teams face as they attempt to organize and make something great. From team size and deadlines to communication and agile process, Christy & Aaron break down these common issues and suggest some alternative ways to assemble and work toward a common goal. Christy & Aaron mention a few recommended books in this episode, including: The 5 Dysfunctions of a Team https://www.amazon.com/Five-Dysfunctions-Team-Leadership-Fable/dp/0787960756 If videos are more your thing, the author has 40-minute talk that summarizes the content well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wHpB1EBufFo The Trusted Advisor https://www.amazon.com/Trusted-Advisor-David-H-Maister/dp/0743212347 The Phoenix Project https://www.amazon.com/Phoenix-Project-DevOps-Helping-Business/dp/0988262592 Enjoy!

“Rock Stars create unique, special experiences for everybody” They say that business is easy until you introduce people. While it is true that interpersonal dynamics can be tricky to solve, there are a few people out there who have it down to a science, and that is what we are here to discuss on this week’s Inspiring Leaders Podcast. Former Rock Star Alan Schaefer is the founder and Chief Executive Officer of Banding People Together, a super group of behaviorists, strategists and rock stars who teach people how to be their best selves when working with others. Ever since is Rock Star Days, touring with The Band, Alan has been fascinated with Interpersonal Dynamics and the previously unsolved mystery of how some people can make irresistible rhythms together while others just fall into distortion and sad reverb. “If you’re getting the band in the room, how will you create the vibe or the magic?” This fascination led Alan to create Banding’s “True Collaboration℠ Methodology” which includes their own diagnostic called “The Collaborative Harmony Index”. Now, companies like NASA, Netflix, Cisco and Verizon have all bought front row seats to Alan Schaefer’s unique solution, and it is creating harmonies for all of them. Alan has been described as a “Maestro of Human Capital Excellence” and brings his unique perspective as a successful entrepreneur, recording artist, songwriter and consultant to his current work. Listen in to this week’s show to learn how Alan and his team of Rock Stars are solving the Interpersonal Dynamics Puzzle, and laying down some groovy tunes at the same time!

“The way to start would be, first, when we feel the tendency to blame, to try to get in touch with what it feels like to be holding on to ourselves so tightly. What does it feel like to blame? How does it feel to reject? What does it feel like to hate? What does it feel like to be righteously indignant?” - Pema Chodron There’s something calming about finding a target for our blame. It’s like in this moment of being lost in a rough sea of chaos and uncertainty, a person to assign the fault is like an unsinkable lifeboat to grasp. We climb aboard, take a deep breath, and relax. We do this as individuals, we do this in organizations, we do this as a society. But what incredibly valuable opportunities lie in resisting the urge to assign blame? What might we learn in what didn’t (or did) work if we explore a bit more? Jerry is joined today by author and CTO Dave Zwieback to talk about just that. Dave, in his book “Beyond Blame,” explores the fallacy of blame, how it fails to identify the immense complexity and interdependency of the world around us, and the real cost of rapidly assigning fault. If we pause and explore, we may just find that blame often prevents us from doing the very thing we want most - to learn and to grow.

Prima varianta Jobber a aparut intr-o noapte. CashBase a fost creat in urma unei nevoi personale. Filip se trezeste la 6 dimineata. StartCast este precursorul StartUps Romania Podcast. Astea si multe altele le aflati in cel mai recent episod al singurului podcast despre startup-uri si antreprenori din Romania. Eram entuziasmat deja de la prima ora (08:00) si tremuram de emotie. De data asta nu era din cauza cafelei. Urma sa vorbesc cu Filip, fondatorul Jobber.ro. Site pe care-l descriu oamenilor ca fiind "cel mai mare site mic de job-uri din marketing si design". Aici probabil voi fi corectat, site-ul cuprinde si zona de programatori. Astfel, vorbesc mai mult din persectiva omului care si-a cautat job in marketing si care a oferit job-uri in zona asta - primind de fiecare data 2-3 CV-uri chiar in prima zi. Am descoperit pe parcursul mailurilor si a interviului un om calm, adunat, care stie ce-si doreste. Am gasit un om inimos, iubitor si indraznet. Acelasi motto pe care-l aud si-l simt de cand am inceput interviurile: "Trebuie doar sa risti sa incepi". Restul se vor rezolva de la sine. Cateva link-uri mentionate in episod: - Moqups - http://moqups.com - Paymo - http://paymoapp.com - The Alliance - http://www.amazon.com/The-Alliance-Managing-Talent-Networked/dp/1625275773 - 5 Dysfunctions - http://www.amazon.com/Five-Dysfunctions-Team-Leadership-Fable/dp/0787960756/ Ca bonus special de aceasta data, StartUps Romania si Filip Chereches-Tosa organizeaza un concurs, avand ca premiu orice carte va doriti de pe Audible.
