In this episode of The Produce Industry Podcast w/ Patrick Kelly we journey through two great books and reflect on leadership and some of history's worst decisions. During this episode Patrick is going to bring you The Top Ten Mistakes Leaders Make, by Dr. Hans Finzel and a couple stories from Stephen Weir's History's Worst Decisions and The People Who Made Them. As you are starting to wrap up the year think about how you have impacted people and even yourself - what did you do to make a difference? 5 of the most common leadership failures are: 1. The Top-Down Attitude 2. Putting Paperwork Before Peoplework 3. The Absence of Affirmation 4. No Room For Mavericks 5. Dictatorship in Decision Making Was Napolean wrong for invading Russia? Was it short-term thinking to test nuclear bombs off the coast lines of where future generations would live? The decisions we make today effect all of us in the future regardless if the outcome is good or bad...It still happened. One fact is known, where there is True there will be False, In the dark you will find the light, and success there is failure. Think to yourself that it is not being right or being the light or being the most successful. It it what you do with it afterwards!

I talk constantly on this podcast about improving ourselves. I use quotes as a guide for how best to do that. It's important for all of us, myself included, to remember that perfection is neither achievable, nor a worthwhile pursuit. Hans Finzel advises seeking instead, maturity. In this episode, we find some breathing room to accept our imperfections, our immaturities, and our faults with grace and recognize that incremental improvement is “perfectly” acceptable, all courtesy of the wise words of Hans!

Jeremiah 13:20-27“Change Is Possible” Series: “Plans for God’s Good Future” If there’s one word that is sure to raise people’s blood pressure and cause them to have heart palpitations, it’s the word “change.” In fact, most of us here this morning would rather endure a root canal than be subjected to some form of change. So, why is that the case when there’s not a person present in this worship service today who hasn’t been forced to make a change or two over his or her life? Just that question itself points to its own answer, which is that in one way or another all change is forced, because all change is difficult. A somewhat humorous way of unpacking that reality comes from a book by Hans Finzel, the former president of the International non-profit, World Venture, titled, Change Is Like a Slinky: 30 Strategies for Promoting and Surviving Change in Your Organization. You remember the children’s toy, don’t you; that pre-compressed spiral-shaped spring toy that was first introduced in the 1940’s? Among the reasons Finzel likens change to a slinky toy are these: (1) Somebody has to launch it on its way; (2) The course it takes once it begins is entirely unpredictable; (3) It routinely gets stuck halfway and has to be relaunched; and (4) It rarely lands where you predict. Little wonder then that when someone mentions that a change is in the offing, most of us start to hyperventilate. Change is just too difficult. But might it be that if we were to peel back the layers of our discontent with respect to change, we’d actually see that the root of our reluctance is simply because we don’t see the need to go there. In other words, “Is this change going to do me any good?” And the underlying premise of that question is, “I don’t think so.” The truth of the matter is that we don’t relish making change because deep down inside we don’t see any reason to do so. And the longer we persist in that way of thinking, the more set in our ways we come to be, which when you think about it, is a pretty dangerous place for a people who at least in their heads hold a conviction that they are anything but perfect and therefore are constantly in need of change. Perhaps that’s why when you look at Scripture, particularly in the Old Testament, God was always calling people who would afflict His way-too-comfortable people. We call these folk “prophets,” one of whom was the prophet Jeremiah. We’ve been in a sermon series on Jeremiah since the beginning of the year. I thought it would be a good exercise for us as a church to begin a New Year contemplating the good plans God has for us in 2020, but with the recognition that to be in a place where we might know those good plans in their fullness, we’d best be prepared for some changes along the way. This section of Jeremiah comes from the time in his ministry when he was preaching to the people of Jerusalem, just before they were to be conquered by their neighbors to the north, the Babylonians, who would destroy their cherished Temple, tear down the bulk of their homes and businesses, and uproot the best and the brightest of them in order to take them away to Babylon. To his credit, Jeremiah sees what is about to happen and he does his best to warn the people that there is still time for them to change by turning to God and placing their trust in Him. But, alas, the people think everything is just fine between them and God and all of Jeremiah’s warnings fall on deaf ears. And yet, Jeremiah refuses to give up. This “fire in his bones,” as he describes God’s calling upon his life (Jer. 20:9) compels him to keep speaking, but not out of his own assessment of Jerusalem’s plight, but instead out of the certain judgment that God has told Him He will send upon His people in order to compel them to change. Notice the logic of this particular passage. It is steeped with divine exasperation over how God’s people have drifted from God, so much so that they are unaware of how far they have strayed and what the consequences of their straying will be. What haunts me most about the passage are the questions God poses to the people? “Where is the flock that was entrusted to you?” “What will you say when the LORD sets over you those you cultivated as your special allies?” “Will not pain grip you like that of a woman in labor?” “Can an Ethiopian change his skin or a leopard its spots?” “How long will you be unclean?” It’s easy for us to hear these questions and convince ourselves that God is of the opinion that someone can, for lack of a better word, get past the “point of no return.” God can, for all intents and purposes, give up on someone because of how that person has, for all intents and purposes, given up on Him. But that’s not what this passage intends to convey, not to the people of Jerusalem and certainly not to us. While change is difficult and therefore doesn’t happen nearly as much as it should, change is not impossible. Instead, change is very much possible, as long as someone takes the risk of first owning up to his need and then finding the courage to trust everything in his life to God so that God might change us from the inside out to become all that He created us to be. Can you do that today? Can you muster what it takes to acknowledge what might be wrong in your life so that in turn you might look to God, whose grace in Jesus Christ does in your life what in your own power you would never be able to do – change your “skin” and transform your “spots?” There is a parable told by an African author, James Aggrey, that speaks to the changes only God can make possible. As the parable goes, a man went out into the forest one day. He caught an eaglet, took it home, and placed it among his chickens, ducks, and turkeys. Although it was an eagle, the king of birds, the man fed it chicken feed. Five years later, a zoologist visited his garden, noticed the bird, and told the man, “This bird is an eagle, not a chicken.” “Yes,” answered the owner, “but I have brought it up like a chicken, though it measures 15 feet between its wing tips. It just sees itself as a big chicken.” “No,” said the zoologist. “It’s still an eagle. It has an eagle’s heart. I’ll make it fly high into the sky.” “No, you won’t,” said the owner. “It’s a chicken, and it will never be able to fly.” So, the two of them agreed to try the eagle. The zoologist took it out into the open area, lifted it up, and said with all the conviction he could muster: “Bird, you are an eagle. You belong to the sky, not to the ground. So stretch out your wings and fly.” At which point the eagle looked from one side to the other, then looked down to the ground where it saw the chickens eating, and jumped down to them. “What did I say?” said the owner. “It’s a chicken, and a chicken it forever will be.” “No,” countered the zoologist. “It’s an eagle. Let’s give it another chance tomorrow.” The following day he took the eagle with him again, this time to the top of the roof, and said, “Bird, you are an eagle. Stretch out your wings and fly.” But again, it jumped down to the ground when it saw the chickens eating and began eating with them. “I told you it’s a chicken!” said the owner. “No,” insisted the zoologist. “It’s an eagle and somewhere down inside it has the heart of an eagle. Give me one more chance, and tomorrow it will fly.” The next day the zoologist got up very early, (before the chickens, you might say) and took the eagle with him to the base of a mountain far away from the houses of the village. The sun was just rising in the eastern sky, gilding the mountaintops, so that every piece of rock was beaming with joyful light. He lifted up the eagle, saying, “Bird, you are an eagle. You belong to the sky, not the ground. So, stretch out your wings and fly.” The eagle looked around, started shaking all over as if it were being filled with new life, but it did not fly. The zoologist then turned the face of the bird directly into the sun. And suddenly, it stretched out its wings, and with an eagle’s cry, lifted itself higher and higher into the sky, never to go back to being a chicken again. Though it was kept and tamed like a chicken, in reality it was meant to be an eagle. Always remember that the changes God seeks to bring about are only those that help us to claim the life He created us to know, a life that has been marred and tarnished by the poor examples we see all about us. As the hymn puts it, “Better to turn your eyes upon Jesus and look full into his wonderful face. Then and only then will the things of this world grow strangely dim, in the light of his glory and grace.” Change is very possible if we will but acknowledge our need and trust Jesus to make it happen. Jeremiah 13:20-27

Hans Finzel hates the term retirement - and he really hates the idea that retired people don’t have anything to offer the world. He and his friend Rick Hicks are both PhDs and former CEOs who left their roles as they approached the age of 60, but they now spend their time conducting studies, researching, and writing. In their new book, Launch Your Encore: Finding Adventure & Purpose Later in Life, they share real examples of individuals who have transitioned from full-time jobs to volunteer work, ministry, or even entire second careers. They want you to craft a game plan for life after your main career that will position you to succeed personally and make positive contributions to society - and never think about the idea of retirement the same way again. Today, Hans and Rick join the podcast to talk about why hanging out on the couch for 30 years isn’t a viable option, the importance of passing the torch on to others, the dangers of losing touch with the outside world, and a variety of exercises you can use to envision - and realize - your second act, even as you’re still in your first. You’ll hear a number of stories about highly intentional, powerful encores - and how you can build a healthy, satisfying life in retirement.   Get Today's Show Notes!

At some point in our careers, most of us have undoubtedly scratched our heads and wondered, “How on earth did this person obtain this leadership role?” The fact of the matter is that some people in leadership roles don’t belong there. Unfortunately, companies tend to promote employees who are highly trained and have excellent technical skills, but when these employees move into management, they often lack the soft skills necessary to motivate their teams. Hence, they don’t become great leaders.  In this episode of In Process: Conversations about Business in the 21st Century, hosts Evelyn Ashley and John Monahon of Trusted Counsel speak with Dr. Hans Finzel about leadership.

Determination is a huge part of being a successful leader. Another word for this would per persistence or courageous leadership. I to start this podcast with a story of my own determination through a very tough time. We all face these times. If I asked you to name one of your top biggest times of discouragement, what would it be? I can think of a big one - when I was betrayed by a dear friend. My board chair turned on me. One reason this was such a difficult situation is I couldn't fix it. I had to endure it for a couple of years. I love to resolve conflict and fix things that are broken. But sometimes we have to live in the midst of a big discouragement. It reminds me of my son who's been in the job for about 18 months that is true.

A mentor, speaker and trainer whose practice serves business owners and entrepreneurs across several countries, Hans Finzel wrote the book on what it takes to be a great leader. In fact, he’s written a few. His top seller is The Top Ten Mistakes Leaders Make, which gives you the low-down on how NOT to be a good leader. The good news is that if you apply what Hans teaches, you can turn yourself around over time and be a much better leader… one that others will want to follow and then help you as you build your business. This is important, because you need a good team. If you’re not a good leader you won’t have one, at least not for long. Without a team, you’ll continue wearing all those heavy hats and do everything yourself. According to Hans, great leaders do not control; they serve others and they listen to what their people have to say. Just like the most effective entreprenuers, the best leaders know whom they serve and they put their best listening ears on whenever they are talking with members of their team. Hans says we need to avoid “top-down” leadership. That’s where the leader is a control freak in one regard or another. He adds that we all have strengths and weaknesses, and that we as the leaders do not have all the answers. To build a business takes a whole lot of communication and hiring the right people on your team. That comes down to the four C’s of hiring… and that starts with the person’s character. Hans says we can avoid uncomfortable firing issues by using a few cool strategies when hiring from the get-go. For example, do not hire permanently until you know the person is right for the job and fits in with the other members of the team. If the person lacks people skills, it will be hard on everyone else on the team, which means a harder climb to the top for your business. Better to hire on a three- to six-month trial basis. Hans gives excellent, expert tips about building necessary leadership skills, the importance of developing people skills, why we need good communication skills, how to hire the best people and how to get them to stay, and how to fire them gently if they don’t work out. In fact, Hans has so much to say about building your business through being a great leader that you will want to take notes. Then you’ll want to implement all he says to do!

A Guest Blog with Kathrine Lee, The Ultimate Source A few years ago when Oprah launched her new network, OWN, she ran a contest for anyone whose dream was to have their own TV show. The grand prize was a contract with her network. Because I had the privilege of being on her show a couple of times, I was encouraged to audition. At first, I was excited and it made sense. If I was a leader and wanted to create change in the world around me, what better platform than having your own TV show connected to Oprah? But something was unsettled in me. I couldn’t figure out why I had such great hesitation and deep conviction that this was not the direction to go. Then it hit me. I don’t want to be famous, I want to have influence. Now, I know you can be famous and have influence too but, for me, there was a distinct difference in the way I wanted to go about making an impact on the world around me. Let me share the definitions to each word. In them the distinction becomes clear.

Welcome to my first Podcast. I welcome you and your time. I hope you listen to the show! This first show is an introduction to what I love about leadership and just a bit about my own story. My passion is to help leaders lead. So if that sparks an interest, read on and listen. * I begin with a short history is the study of leadership – great leaders (Lincoln, King, Thatcher, Gandhi, Moses) and terrible leaders. History in many ways is the story of what leaders have done for good and for harm. * I introduce myself –a little about who I am. I have always wanted to change the world for good – have my life count – and that is what leaders do! * I don’t know where you are at in your journey – but I love helping leaders lead. Why do I call myself the Leadership Answerman??? Not because I think I am a great leader. It is because I am here to help leaders lead, and if I don’t know the answer I will find the answer!
