No conversation is too difficult, and no situation too conflicted because a leader with a vision cannot be held hostage by circumstance or history. In this episode, Dean Newlund and Dan Tocchini discuss:The impact of language, perception, and intuition on business cultures and crisesThe distinctions between wisdom and intuitionThe training of the mind for better leadershipThe transformative journey from victimization to empowermentThe responsibility of leaders to inspire and support their teams through challenges and the necessary paradigm shifts for meaningful change Key Takeaways:Language and perception significantly shape decision-making, highlighting the transformative influence a well-crafted vision has on leadership effectiveness.Valuing intuitive thinking alongside analytical reasoning becomes increasingly important, particularly in crisis situations where conventional logic might fall short.Understanding the nuances between wisdom and intuition is imperative for leaders, as this insight guides executive decisions and strategic direction.Intuition enhancement within an organization's leadership can be achieved through specialized training that focuses on conflict monitoring, emotional processing, and bodily awareness, leading to more adept and conscious decision-making.Personal accountability and facing one's challenges are vital steps in leadership development, with a focus on embracing subconscious reactions and harnessing the power of language to transform present behavior and inspire team motivation. "A leader with a vision cannot be held hostage by circumstance or history.” — Dan Tocchini Connect with Dan Tocchini:  Website URL: https://takenewground.com/https://wearerevenant.com/  Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-naked-leadership-podcast/id1495058489Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/73ZuLDaxdfhCNYXlmIQy01?si=9a5b25f227f64ae1Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dan_tocchini/?hl=enLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dantocchini   See Dean's TedTalk “Why Business Needs Intuition” here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EEq9IYvgV7I Connect with Dean:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgqRK8GC8jBIFYPmECUCMkwWebsite: https://www.mfileadership.com/The Mission Statement E-Newsletter: https://www.mfileadership.com/blog/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deannewlund/X (Twitter): https://twitter.com/deannewlundFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/MissionFacilitators/Email: dean.newlund@mfileadership.comPhone: 1-800-926-7370 Show notes by Podcastologist: Hanz Jimuel AlvarezAudio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

Conflict within organizations can arise from a variety of reasons, such as differences in opinions, goals, or personalities. While conflict may initially seem like a negative aspect of organizational dynamics, it can actually be beneficial if managed properly. Conflict can lead to the generation of new ideas and perspectives, as individuals are forced to think critically and consider alternative viewpoints. It also promotes open communication and encourages team members to voice their concerns and opinions. By addressing and resolving conflicts in a constructive manner, organizations can foster a culture of collaboration and innovation. This can ultimately lead to improved decision-making, increased creativity, and stronger relationships among team members. So, while conflict may be seen as disruptive, it is important to recognize its potential benefits and embrace it as an opportunity for growth within organizations. I'll be talking with Daniel Tocchini about why Conflict is the "Yellow Brick Road" to Success. Dan Tocchini has been helping leaders bring some more magic onto their teams for over 35 years. He has worked with executive teams from Interstate Batteries and ESPN, to Smarty Pants Vitamins and Impulse Space, and with non-profits like Homeboy Industries and Defy Ventures.

Episode 60 of Soul Purpose Leadership is now streaming and this second quarter of the year is centered on the true meaning of leadership with counter-intuitive tools that can take you and your team to the next level, and this week we’re focusing on those must-have tough conversations, leadership paradoxes, motive, and mastery with Dan Tocchini.  For the last 35 years Dan has been a business and social entrepreneur and a published author. He is a co-founder and the CEO of Take New Ground, a consultancy that focuses on training and developing Founders to live a vital life of meaning. Dan’s clients include; ESPN, Disney, Interstate Batteries, Microsoft, Hyperloop-One, Jeni’s Special Ice Cream, Smarty Pants Vitamins and a number of NGO’s.   Dan shares some of his story on today’s episode: “I remember being told there was no hope. I remember being told that the circumstances were the way they were, and there was nothing we could do about it.” He goes on to state that “A leader is someone who doesn’t have circumstances determine who they are and how they’re going to stand.” Can we get an amen!! And now onto those tough conversations… buckle up, because they’re happening! “Conversations you don’t want to have? They’re boomerangs.” -How symbolic of this last year - those of us who’ve avoided tough convos… how have you adapted as a leader to communicate in an effective way? We also discuss motives, assessment tools, navigating paradoxes as leaders, and other valuable tools to better understand yourself, your business, your family. Thanks, Dan, for a powerful episode - listeners, we can’t wait for your feedback! Those 5 star reviews are always appreciated to help spread the word about Soul Purpose Leadership.

They steward a company that for the past 6 decades has been leading its industry with outrageous dependability. You may know Interstate batteries from their logos on the side of NASCAR winners, but you may not know that they offer over 12,000 different batteries and have sold more than 300 million units.
