Do you avoid tough conversations? Frustrated when your team doesn't deliver the work product you expected? Or did someone tell you to work on "executive presence" and you don't know how? In this episode, executive coach and Forbes contributor, Hanna Hart is in The Legal Department with a framework for giving and receiving feedback. Lawyers avoid feedback because they're busy, uncomfortable, or want people to like them. This is counterproductive. This episode provides concrete suggestions for making a feedback conversation something that helps both parties improve and build a better relationship.

"Belonging" Sunday, January 14, 10:50 am, 2024 It is said that religions include belief, behavior and belonging. Unitarian Universalism gave Rev. Sonya an immediate sense of belonging over 25 years ago when she first attended a service in her hometown in New Mexico. Unitarians employ reason in our beliefs, and a sense of freedom concerning religious behaviors, so naming what creates our sense of belonging this month is our work and our play. She will explore what belonging means today as UUSF prepares to explore the promises we make together with a covenant later this month. Rev. Sonya Sukalski, Sabbatical Minister; Rev.

We’re busy preparing Season 2 of Career Stewardship! In the meantime, here is a bonus episode from Michael’s other podcast, “Meanwhile.” In this episode, Michael speaks with coaching colleague Hanna Hart about receiving feedback – why it’s so important and why it can be so hard! They offer tips on how to manage yourself in the process, how to make the best of challenging feedback, and how to make feedback from any source something that helps propel you forward.
In Episode 2, we talked about decoding your values. In this Episode 6, we explain how to apply your values for greater satisfaction and success in work, leadership, and life. Michael is joined again by coaching colleague buddy Hanna Hart. They talk about using values to identify what you want in a particular job, using values to assess an organization’s culture (and whether it’s going to work for you), using values as to build your own leadership, and using values to identify what’s not working in your life–and then taking action. They also talk about the relevance of knowing your values even when you feel you have no choice but to take or continue in a particular job. Hanna shares the eminently doable “value of the week” exercise, and Michael gives his younger self a stern talking to.
Just because you don’t have a big rolodex populated with powerful names doesn’t mean you can’t attain career success. In this episode, Michael and guest coach Hanna Hart talk about one of the most important ideas in careers, “the strength of weak ties,” which means that people you barely know or have fallen out of touch with can be some of the most positive sources of career progress. We learn how Hanna turned an awkward cocktail party encounter into a career-changing opportunity, why being uncomfortable while networking is a good thing, and why it’s always a good idea to write an amazon review for an acquaintance who has written a book.
This week we're reading "A Cowboy Billionaire Secret Baby" by Hanna Hart. Cowboy. Billionaire. Secret. Baby. What else do you need? This combination of words is the key that will unlock your mind. This is more than a book - it's the pathway to nirvana. Forget your troubles. Forget your family. Forget your friends. Pry open your third eye and gaze into the abyss. Achieve immortality. Cowboy Billionaire Secret Baby.
