Many people describe their favorite leaders as "approachable." They aren't afraid to come to them with questions, ideas or concerns. That's a real advantage for leaders. But how do you get that reputation? In this podcast, Loyola's expert, Jill Geisler, offers a checklist of behaviors that you can adopt - or abandon - to become more approachable.
We'd like to think that collaboration and morale go hand in hand, but often organizations and managers get in the way of both. In this podcast episode, Jill Geisler looks at the intersection of information, empathy, collaboration, morale, and silo-busting.
Good managers strive for open communication with staff -- and often claim their door is always open. They may be surprised to find out the reasons why that generous offer doesn't work for all their employees. Loyola University's expert on leadership and management, Jill Geisler, explains and shares tips for better connections.
Jill Geisler continues sharing her list of insights from her work leading The Power Shift Project, the Newseum Freedom Forum Institute's initiative created in response to sexual misconduct scandals in media. The lessons apply to all workplaces.
In this episode of Brandstorm, we welcome Jill Geisler, a Wisconsin Broadcasters Association Hall of Famer and author of the book, Work Happy: What Great Bosses Know. Jill discusses her involvement in the Newseum’s Power Shift Project, what it takes to be a great leader in any industry, and why her mantra is, “Life’s too short to work with jerks.” Jill GeislerIn 1978, Jill became one of the first female news directors in the United States, working at WITI-TV in Milwaukee. She served in that capacity for more than 20 years and was inducted into the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences' prestigious Silver Circle. In 1998, she joined the faculty at the Poynter Institute, building and teaching leadership and management programs, and writing columns and producing podcasts that would eventually become content for her book, which was published in 2014. For the last three years, Jill has been a Bill Plante Chair in Leadership and Media Integrity at Loyola University Chicago. She consults with newsrooms and organizations around the globe and is an in-demand speaker on the issues of leadership, ethics and diversity in the digital age. Power Shift ProjectLast year, stories of sexual misconduct by powerful men in entertainment and media, like Harvey Weinstein, Matt Lauer and Charlie Rose, shook the industry to its core. Jan Neuharth, a trustee at the Newseum in Washington, D.C. (a popular museum dedicated to the history of journalism), and daughter of USA Today and Newseum founder Al Neuharth, asked for Jill's expertise and assistance in bringing together people who are on the forefront of this issue, including individuals from news organizations dealing with these bombshells and covering their own stories, victims of the reported abuse, academies who have studied these issues, the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), the National Women's Law Center (NWLC) and many more. In January, over 130 media leaders attended the first Power Shift Summit at the Newseum. At this summit, Jill moderated panels where representatives from news organizations spoke about attempts to put the pieces of their own companies back together after these accusations came to light. Discussions were also held on what can be done to change things industry-wide, and to shift the power away from the higher-ups who perpetuated such misconduct. Realizing more education on this topic was needed, Jill was asked to sign on with the Newseum to help design curriculum and activities for the Power Shift Project. With the full support of Loyola University, Jill sees her new venture as a wonderful service to humanity, and points out that misconduct in the industry is not limited to that of a sexual nature. Other issues include incivility, discrimination and how those who previously felt they were voiceless can now come forward. Work Happy: What Great Bosses KnowThe impetus for Jill's book came from feedback she received as a consultant and coach. She was frequently asked about books she might recommend on leadership. Instead of suggesting different books that dealt with singular topics like conflict resolution, time management or emotional intelligence, Jill felt there was a need for a book for people like her, who originally received no formal training in management or leadership. Her journalism background provided her with the unique talent to take in a lot of information, synthesize and translate it for others to easily understand. Jill says Work Happy: What Great Bosses Know is a reference tool that acts much like a workshop with self-diagnostic activities and quizzes to help any manager or team of managers improve their leadership skills and create a better work culture. What Makes a Great BossNo boss is perfect, but according to Jill, the great ones are leaders who work to overcome their flaws and surround themselves with people who will keep them honest and fill in their gaps. She also says people appreciate inspiration. True visionaries can see an end goal and let their team figure out the best route to get there. Great bosses will not likely hesitate to apologize. In fact, most employees have more respect for a boss who genuinely admits to a mistake and responds with the wisdom to figure out why it happened, and why it won't happen again. A great boss also remembers that their employees are people. What you do during both joyous and somber times as a leader will never be forgotten. Going out of your way to offer employees sincere condolences and support over a death in the family or being congratulatory about personal or family successes are good examples of this. Other Ways to Succeed at LeadershipJill believes the most important thing a leader can do is to help others succeed. Establishing early on that your goal is for your team to be able to do their best work builds social capital. Jill recommends tracking this in measurable ways, such as how you speak to your employees, how much you make yourself available to them and how much you know about them personally. However, this does not mean that treating everyone the same will work. Many leaders confuse office equality with forcing everyone to work the same way. A manager who tries to turn their staff into a version of him or her will likely fail. While standards can be universal, achieving those standards can differ for each person, and no two people should be required to achieve something the same way. Management Styles of a Bad BossJill says the worst management style she's seen in her career is the "Absentee Landlord." This is the person whose credo is, "I hire good people and I get out of their way." Jill explains that no good boss ever gets completely out of the way of their employees, because even top performers require feedback. Without it, employees have little idea where they stand, or how they are performing. Another avoidable management style is that of a controlling boss. While Jill admits that taking on an underperforming team requires control at first (such as being specific about your expectations and managing the team closely), maintaining that control will inevitably be damaging. Once the team begins to shine, a great boss steps back and becomes more of a participatory manager. Democracy is not always possible in the workplace. Bosses sometimes need to make tough calls. Jill recommends that if you cannot give your team a vote, then at least give them a voice. This helps people not only get things done, but to do so with an idea of their own creation. If a team doesn't need to rely on the boss for every single move, it will inevitably lead to great things. Jill also believes that poor leaders can often be too focused on product, believing that their staff is just a means to an end. These leaders should be more focused on helping their team reach current goals and set new ones. In other words, how can they make the process to complete a task more successful? Mistakes Employees Never Forget or ForgiveJill says dishonesty or a lack of transparency from a boss, especially when it comes to potential layoffs or a possible pay increase, is something employees never forget or forgive. Another breach of trust is a boss taking credit for someone else's work or idea, or on the flip side, refusing to take the appropriate blame when necessary. Lastly, a boss who acts differently around his or her employees than with a superior will likely lose the respect of the team. Seeing two distinctly opposing sides of a leader is never a good look. Jill says that if you are known around the office as being generous with information when you have it, you are more likely to be believed and understood by your staff when you can't comment on a situation, or have no say in the matter. Managing Age DifferencesWhen working with a group that includes both Baby Boomers and Millennials, Jill states that there is a clear difference between how each group obtains and processes information. While Baby Boomers grew up getting bank statements once a month, seeing their grades at the end of a semester and were oftentimes unable to talk to their parents until the weekend because of lower phone rates, the newest generation in the workforce often talks to their parents several times a day via text and can check their school grades or get a reaction from a thought on social media instantaneously. Where they don't get instant feedback is in the workplace. Jill recommends that leaders add feedback in their conversations with Millennials, discussing challenges, while giving them a path to grow. Reflecting on her own Management StyleAs news director at WITI-TV, Jill developed what she refers to as a "coaching newsroom," where people came to learn and discover their own opportunities to hone their craft. She put an emphasis on rewarding unique and original stories, as well as creating a family-friendly workplace. She says that if you allow your employees to bring their whole selves to their position without ignoring family and challenges at home, they will do a much better job at the office. However, after years of experience to reflect on, Jill also believes her team at WITI-TV would have benefitted from knowing what they could be doing better, and not just what they were already doing well. Recommendations on Getting AheadEmployees are often good at identifying problems or what's not working, and are more than happy to complain about it to fellow team members or their employer. Unfortunately, that's where the motivation stops. How can anything be fixed without change or an attempt to try something different? Jill recalls that it was her practice of volunteerism that worked best for her. By giving extensive thought to a challenge, and how it would fit into the greater context of what her team was trying to accomplish, Jill would not only take her recommendations to her superiors, but also offer to help or head up efforts to solve the problem. Jill says this is how the seeds of great leadership can be planted. Look at problems from the view of the organization and not just your own goals. If you are known as someone who is a good collaborator, people are more inclined to follow you knowing there is a promise of reciprocity. You don't have to be the best at your craft, but having the ability to take a more global approach, while rolling up your sleeves and being a part of the solution, will get you noticed!

So is this something new? “Oh look, I have a discussion I have recorded. It’s online. I’ll call it my podcast.”How to Find the Right Tone of Voice for your Podcasthttps://blog.spreaker.com/2017/11/28/find-right-tone-voice-podcast/Whether you listen to Common Sense with Dan Carlin, PBS NewsHour, or The New Yorker to get your podcast newsfix you’re aware of the big difference in how the presenters communicate their message; not just in the language they use but also their tone of voice. Tone can convey a thousand things to a listener and is key in getting what you want to say across correctly, how you use it will affect everything from how you’re interpreted as a person to the sincerity of the message you’re broadcasting. The Guardian says tone will “affect how we’re seen in terms of our personality, our emotional state, and even our professional competence”. Let’s take a look at some of the different podcast genres out there and see how you can use tone to create impact for yours! JournalisticGenerally speaking, if you’re reporting news a more ‘formal’ tone of voice is required. You need to sound authoritative and speaking with a lower pitch will help audience members feel confident in your credibility. Speak clearly and enunciate well, putting emphasis on the key facts such as locations and timings of events – there’s no room for misunderstandings with the news. However, you need to find that sweet spot where you aren’t over-enunciating as you could come across as patronizing! Last but not least you must always sound objective, keep a steady tone and try not to put emphasis on words which could imply personal opinion. Check out how Up First report the daily news for some inspiration on how to hit the right reporting note. As a rule of thumb, Jill Geisler advises to “communicate with command, comfort, and clarity”.Intimate - PassionateAt the other end of the spectrum, if you’re planning on sharing intimate details with your audience you need to take on a completely different voice persona, being as natural as possible. Talking about personal matters such as: marital problems, relationships and sexuality need to sound unrehearsed and honest. Imagine you are talking to a friend one-on-one, emphasize words you normally would and add inflection at the end of a phrase, making your speech sound question-like will invite listeners in.Kaitlin Prest’s show The Heart is just the sort of tonal dialogue to be aiming for check out her episode on arranged marriage to get some insight in how to use your voice.ReassuringTo have a voice which makes listeners feel in safe hands you need to sound genuine and warm.

To achieve it, imagine how a therapist might communicate with their patient – speak slowly in a stable low tone, inviting listeners into a safe virtual environment.Informative / Educational - PassionateReliability and credibility are the key character traits you want to convey when presenting an educational or informative show. To hit the nail on the head, speak with conviction, have a steady tone, communicate clearly and with confidence and don’t add go up in pitch at the end of your sentences – it will sound like you doubt what you’re saying! Try listening to Flash Forward discussing climate change to get some inspiration on how to use your voice. Sounding like a trusted source means pacing yourself, speaking too quickly and you come off sounding nervous and unsure, and add pauses here and there to add weight to what you’re saying.StorytellingThe key to great storytelling? “Communicating your humanity” according to the Huffingtonpost.com.

True Calling Project | Finding Purpose and Meaning In Life and Career
Welcome back to the True Calling Project. Today’s guest is Nicole Gordon, licensed marriage and family therapist, and she has a very unique way to approach couples and family work. Nicole sees clients in both a private practice and in their homes. She practices experiential therapy that uses cooking as a tool. It’s basically a platform to help clients understand themselves in situ and relate their emotions or thoughts to what has come up in traditional talk therapy. “By going through the process themselves, they’re able to observe more about themselves.” What does cooking therapy look like? It starts with an introduction to talk about the clients’ backgrounds and goals with therapy The activity might involve a couple or family creating something together, creating something for each other or creating something without knowing what the ingredients are The activity is geared towards the clients’ goals During the activity, Nicole will ask questions to help clients process along the way “People love it because they get to do something fun, but also relate to each other in a safer way.” Cooking therapy sounds fun, and we don’t typically think about psychotherapy as something enjoyable or fun. It’s a refreshing approach to couples and family therapy that focuses on what patients observe about themselves during the process, as opposed to what Nicole observes about them. “It was taking two loves and putting them together and saying I can do both at the same time.” Nicole is writing a dissertation about the relationship between therapy and cooking. She is particularly interested in the different physical and emotional levels on which people relate to cooking. On an instinctual level, we eat to survive On a family level, we relate food to different cultures and traditions On a societal level, we relate food to health, enjoyment and more On an emotional level, different foods and dishes affect us all differently Nicole has truly found her true calling.

When a star is also a bully, managers face a challenge. Can they cure the problem behavior? Jill Geisler offers practical advice.
Way back in Episode 10, we’ve talked a little about communication and how it can make your life simpler….that is if it’s effective communication. Ineffective communication on the other hand can can make your life a lot more complicated and often leads to confusion, stress, resentment, anger and even some dangerous situations. That's why simple communication is essential at work, at home and apparently in the prison/corrections field (see clip below). But, you don't have to be in a high-stress, dangerous job to tap into all the benefits of simple communication. Matter of fact, you might be causing some stressful situations yourself. Have you ever tried to replay a conversation in your head or share it with someone else only to fumble through it because you couldn’t remember the details or what was said? Or have you said “yes dear” or “sure”, or uh-uh” after your significant other asked you to do something but you didn’t hear a word they said because you were thumbing through your Facebook feed? Read more... Or have you had your spouse raise an eyebrow with that “are you kidding me look...because this is the 10th time I told you”? I'm sure you can relate. What about if you are the one that wants to be heard? Have you ever felt like no one is really listening to you? It seems like people are either so self-absorbed and busy with themselves, or too distracted by all the buzz going on around them and in their head that they’ve forgotten to be present and listen. Main Topic: "What We Got Here...Is A Failure to Communicate!" How To Become A Better Listener We spend close to 50% of our time listening, but there are A LOT of barriers to effective communication. Part of the reason we have so many barriers to effective communication is because of a lack of understanding of: WHAT listening actually is… WHY it’s so important, and… HOW to become a better listener...all to make communication more simple. WHAT listening actually is: Hearing: is simply the receiving of sound. Listening: is an active process of receiving and constructing meaning from spoken and nonverbal messages and can involve 2 types of attention: Automatic attention: which is instinctive attention...such as responding to a stimuli like a sudden sound or movement. Selective attention: where you are focused on something because it’s important or interesting to you. And this is where it gets difficult, because often times the two of these compete and conflict with one another. For example: when you are engaged in a great conversation or lecture but your attention gets diverted to the sound of the “ding” on a phone. WHY being a good listener is important: It’s how we cooperate and get things done...as humans! It’s how we build a better understanding of problems that we face as individuals or members of a team or as a family. Helps us to be more productive...and not waste time figuring things out or having to re-explain things. Helps us to have better interpersonal relationships...by showing genuine concern for those who are trying to communicate with you. Helps us gain knowledge which in turn can help us influence, persuade or negotiate with others on things that we are passionate about or believe to be really important matters. Prevents stress, anxiety, resentment and potentially dangerous situations. HOW to become a better listener: As we were doing our research, we came across a lot of great articles about barriers to communication and how to become an effective listener. There was one article written on Poynter.org by Jill Geisler, who is a Senior Faculty member of Leadership and Management at the Poynter Institute that really stood out to us. The article is titled “10 Lousy Listeners And What We Can Learn From Them.” She basically describes 10 types of lousy listeners...all of whom we could totally relate to! So,
