Great leaders don't always have the answers, but they know how to ask the right questions. In this episode, executive coach Dave unpacks his 5 C's coaching framework and explains how it helps leaders stay focused, flexible, and impactful in every conversation. He also reveals why “curious humility” is the underrated superpower that separates great coaches from average managers. Highlights from the interview: 1. Five C's of coaching Dave explains his 5-part coaching framework that he developed to structure his coaching calls:  CapacityClarityCelebrationConversationCommitments This framework provides a consistent structure while allowing flexibility to adjust based on the client's needs. Listen to the 5-Min Systems Segment on my YouTube channel. 2. Avoiding tangents and staying focused He shares how the framework helps him keep coaching sessions focused on the most important issues, rather than getting sidetracked by clients wanting to just talk about all the positive things happening. The framework allows him to consistently steer the conversation back to the key priorities. 3. Flexibility within the framework He explains that he calls it a "framework" rather than a "system" to emphasize the flexibility it provides. The structure can be adjusted based on factors like the client's capacity on a given day, allowing more time for certain parts of the framework as needed. 4. Dave's background and path to coaching He shares how he was always a talkative kid who was told he "talks too much" on his report cards. This led him to study organizational communications in college and eventually get trained as an executive coach, before transitioning to full-time coaching work. 5. Coaching vs. managing He distinguishes between coaching, which is about asking powerful questions and holding space for the client to discover solutions, versus managing, which is more prescriptive and directive. He explains how leaders need to know when to coach versus when to manage, based on factors like time constraints and the employee's skills. 6. The power of curiosity and humility in leadership He emphasizes the importance of leaders cultivating "curious humility" - being genuinely curious to understand their team's perspectives, while also being humble enough to admit when they don't have all the answers. This creates an environment where team members feel empowered to provide feedback and dissenting views. Learn more about Dave Bates over at Paravelle. You can also connect with him on LinkedIn.

Doing It Right with LeadershipIn the second part of her “Doing It Right” series on the Home Care Heroes and Day Service Stars podcast, industry veteran Ginny Kenyon returns to talk about leadership — not as a title, but as a responsibility. Ginny, who Ken Accardi describes as worthy of the “Home Care Hall of Fame,” shares her hard-earned wisdom on what it truly means to lead a successful and compassionate home care organization.Ginny begins by drawing a sharp contrast between being a "boss" and being a true leader. A boss, she says, issues orders and expects obedience. A leader, on the other hand, embraces their role as the “chief responsible person.” Leaders serve their teams by ensuring that staff have both the tools and the knowledge they need to succeed. Leadership is not about power; it's about service.The Podcast covers:Your Most Important Customer: Your Teamemployees are your most important customer.empower your team, and they will grow your business.From $1.2M to $5.3M: How Listening Fueled Explosive GrowthThese practices built loyalty, reduced conflict, and created a culture where staff felt seen, valued, and empowered.Serving Referral Sources Like VIPsrecognize referral partners as key customers Your Competition is Not Your Enemytreat your competitors as colleagues. What Makes a Great Leader in Home CareIn Ginny's view, leadership in home care is not about hierarchy. It's about ownership, empathy, and service. Leaders must:Listen to staff and act on their inputEquip employees with tools and knowledgeRecognize achievements in meaningful waysBuild strong relationships with referral partnersCollaborate with peers, even competitorsWhen you take care of the people who do the work — your caregivers, office staff, and partners — they take care of your clients.

In this episode of the Empowered Team Podcast, host Kari Schneider welcomes Manny Fiteni, founder of Mind Growth 360 and a leadership transformation expert from Australia. With over 35 years of experience leading teams of up to 300 people, Manny has seen firsthand why most managers fail — and how real leadership is cultivated from the inside out. Together, they explore: The difference between managing and leading (and why most get it wrong) Manny's 3 core pillars: Environment, True Leadership, and Mind Congruency How subconscious programming silently sabotages managers The top 11 traits of high-performing leaders — and how to spot them Why storytelling is one of the most underused superpowers in leadership Whether you're leading a team or leading yourself, this episode delivers hard-earned wisdom, mindset shifts, and frameworks to elevate how you influence others — and grow from the inside out.

In this episode, Jeremy takes a deep dive into Part 2 of this, "Habits of a Great Leader" mini-series which is about, Motivation. The big idea presented in this particular episode is that average leaders are often found excusing themselves for lack of productivity based upon, "not feeling motivated". However, in this episode we talk about how great leaders don't see motivation as something you feel, but rather something that you can create. Jeremy goes on to talk about some deliberate practices that help great leaders create the consistent motivation that separates them from good leaders!

All listener thoughts, feelings and especially musings are encouraged by The Great Leader, but this week, one listener took it further... Too far, some would argue. Ray Boyle tells an epic tale that must be heard to be believed. Plus, a poorly laptop, grey hair and the tables turn in "Got, Got, Need"...Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.ukThis week's podcast is dedicated to Ray Boyle.Thank you.

What if your employees appear engaged, but aren't truly committed? In this episode of Partnering Leadership, Mahan Tavakoli speaks with Dave Garrison, an experienced CEO, board member, and author of The Buy-In Advantage: Why Employees Stop Caring and How Great Leaders Inspire Commitment. Drawing on his work with companies like Ameritrade and his experience advising leaders across sectors, Dave explains why engagement metrics are often misleading—and how leaders can create the conditions for real buy-in.The conversation begins by examining the gap between how leaders think about motivation and how people actually commit to meaningful work. Dave offers a compelling distinction between surface-level engagement and genuine buy-in, the kind that drives ownership, initiative, and sustained performance. He challenges the assumptions behind many well-intended leadership practices and makes the case for a more human, purpose-driven approach.Together, Mahan and Dave explore how leadership habits—especially those rooted in control or speed—can unintentionally suppress the very commitment leaders are trying to cultivate. Dave shares practical ways to shift the dynamic: asking catalytic questions, reframing roles, and creating environments where people feel seen, heard, and responsible for the outcomes they help shape.This is not a conversation about perks or communication plans. It's about understanding the deeper dynamics of commitment in today's evolving workplace—and how great leaders create clarity, connection, and accountability.
