Podcast appearances and mentions of John Baldoni

John Baldoni likes to call himself the world's worst golfer for as much golf as he plays. His lack of talent for the game has not dimmed his ardor for the game itself and the friends he has made playing it.Golf Lessons: Chips, Chunks and Cheers is a love letter to the game – a collection of poems about the experience of playing and camaraderie it can produce. Baldoni distills wisdom with wry insight and joy. Baldoni's own photography makes Golf Lessons a book to read and re-read one poem or a handful at time.

In this episode of the "Unlocked" podcast, host Skot Waldron invites leadership expert John Baldoni to explore the profound concept of grace and its significance in personal and professional relationships.

The conversation also touches on how these principles intersect with performance and accountability within organizations, urging leaders to invest in their people to achieve collective success. Additionally, Baldoni introduces an innovative AI chatbot inspired by his work, designed to provide leadership advice based on his extensive writings, further demonstrating the versatility of grace in the modern workplace.

Welcome to the new year! Today is January 7th. Still going strong with your resolutions for the year? It's a common occurrence that many people break their New Year's resolutions shortly after making them. Statistics suggest that only a fraction, anywhere between 8% and 28%, actually manage to keep their resolutions. As homeschool parents, our resolutions often revolve around our children, which can add an extra layer of stress. That's why today, I'd like to introduce a different approach. Rather than setting resolutions, consider embracing intentions for the year ahead.  I also share what MY intention is for the year and how and why to get your kids involved. Enjoy!

In this episode, Jordan and John discuss: Infusing grace into leadership  Compassion and self-care  Expressing your empathy  Why grace is important Key Takeaways When in crisis, effective leaders take care of their people, they take care of themselves, and they plan for the future. The key is to infuse that framework with grace. Leaders must let their people know that they have their back.  Compassion is all about recognizing the pain and suffering that others experience and helping to alleviate that if possible and appropriate. In the pursuit of that compassion, many leaders neglect to care for themselves. However, in order to continuously support others, a leader must give themselves compassion, grace, and care as well.  Compassion is the expression of empathy. When you see somebody in need or in pain, what you decide to do about the situation is truly what counts. Be present for people and offer your support.  Grace is essential for recognizing the better nature of others and overcoming prejudice, as it allows us to see beyond our own self-protection and threat responses.  “The easiest thing that well-intentioned leaders do is take care of their people because leadership is other-directed.” —  John Baldoni Connect with John Baldoni:   Website: https://johnbaldoni.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jbaldoni/  Connect with Jordan:  For executives wanting a complimentary executive coaching conversation: jordan@jordangoldrich.com  Website: www.workplacewarriorinc.com Twitter: https://twitter.com/jordangoldrich1 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jordan.goldrich Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jordangoldrich/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jgoldrich/

Scott Jeffrey Miller was raised in Central Florida and began his leadership journey early as the student body president of his high school where he fell in love with power politics. After working on numerous local, state, and national political campaigns, Scott joined the Disney Development Company where for nearly four years he was part of the team that designed and built the famed city of Celebration, Florida (Walt Disney's original vision for EPCOT Center).   At the age of 26, Scott left was kicked out of Disney in Orlando, and moved to the next natural place for a good Catholic boy in his twenties: Provo, Utah. Now at first blush, this might seem genius insane, but he fell in love with Utah's mountains lack of humidity and joined the FranklinCovey Company. Recruited by Dr. Stephen R. Covey's team, Scott built a 26-year career in the world's most respected and influential leadership development firm serving in nearly every role imaginable. From a front-line salesperson, to project manager, sales leader, general manager, vice president, chief marketing officer to executive vice president of thought leadership, Scott's experience at FranklinCovey shaped his views on leadership being a human and somehow found himself married at the age of 41 and begrudgingly lovingly the father of three rascal angelic sons. Scott's professional roles evolved as he became a multi-bestselling author, radio and podcast host, leadership coach, columnist, and global keynote speaker. He continues to consult with FranklinCovey and is proud to continue their collaboration as he expands his own influence through new books, speeches, and coaching offerings. Scott currently serves as the Special Advisor on Thought Leadership for the Franklin Covey Company and is the host of their weekly podcast series, On Leadership with Scott Miller. Scott also hosts FranklinCovey's monthly book club on Bookclub.com which debuted in April 2021. Additionally, Scott is the prolific author of numerous books, writes a column for Inc. Magazine, and keynotes for clients around the world. The Millers live in Salt Lake City with their two annoying treasured dogs and live every day full of gratitude for all their blessings.

I mean, you're looking at somebody who can be a class a jerk from time to time. And so I am mindful of how my quick words or snotty snide remarks might affect someone. That can hold me back. Thoughts on Breathing On the topic of breathing, In the book, I quote the work of Dr. Sharon Melnick, Ph.D. She's a clinical psychologist on the topic of resilience. Dr. Melnick talks about breathing techniques, as does Donald Altman, whom I also quote. So breathing from the diaphragm is important. But when you are speaking, do what opera singers do; breathe from your diaphragm, so you're more filled with air. When we do this deep breathing thing, we are becoming more physically centered, and I like to think that we're also emotionally centered that way too, Bruce.

He talked about the harmful impact of a “Bully Boss” who denigrates others and lacks empathy. Mindfulness, he believes, is essential in coaching to create self-awareness and encourage personal growth. While it might not work with sociopaths, helping others adopt a different perspective can address bullying behavior. Being mindful allows us to recognize our imperfections and strive to improve for a better future. Words of Wisdom Look for the good in others. Try to look for virtues.
