Podcast appearances and mentions of jon gordon companies

On this episode of The Jon Gordon Podcast, I sit down with Chad Busick, one of my top certified trainers who lives, breathes and shares the principles of championship teams. Chad interviews me as we do a deep dive into my latest book, The Seven Commitments of a Great Team, the journey that shaped it, and why these lessons matter for everyone looking to build something great together. Chad leads me through an honest exploration of what a true “championship mindset” really means, why it's not about chasing a trophy, but becoming the kind of teammate and leader who lifts up others and shows up with purpose, grit, and positivity, no matter the circumstances. I share parts of my personal journey, including the struggles with negativity that almost cost me my marriage and ultimately pushed me onto this path of teaching positive leadership. We go behind the scenes on the writing of Seven Commitments, touching on the coaches and mentors who inspired me, like the unforgettable Coach Richie Moran (whose words “teammates are forever” are at the heart of this story). Together we break down why valuing each other is the foundation of any great team, how individual goals and a shared mission fuel real success, and why staying positive, together, matters most when adversity strikes. You'll hear why these commitments have already struck a chord with so many coaches and business leaders, how simple frameworks like LIGHT and VALUE can unlock stronger teams, and why I believe this might be my most meaningful work yet. There are practical takeaways and authentic stories for anyone who wants to lead, connect, and get better, whether you're building a winning culture in sports, business, education, or at home.

The GLUE of Leadership Development Amy Kelly pt 1 https://amzn.to/3Pf9plk ()Have you ever had a workplace disagreement in your career?  It may not have even been that bad of a disagreement. But over time, it continued to eat away until, ultimately, it DID affect your life, your workplace, your family, etc.? Have you ever said something that you regretted saying? Have you ever done something that had the opposite effect you intended and you wished you could go back and do over in a different way? Making decisions in business and in relationships is normal. How you communicate and how you handle decisions can result in either success or failure. Each decision you make can either strengthen the bonds of the relationships you have – or tear them apart. Sometimes, when you handle things the wrong way and the relationship is torn apart, you wish there was some type of glue to bring it all back together, right? Well, my guest today just happens to have that glue available for you to use… Amy Kelly is the Vice President of Consulting for the Jon Gordon Companies and a human resource and talent development executive who is known for building high-performance talent and cultures, including award winning workplaces and leadership development programs. She has released a book titled, https://amzn.to/3Pf9plk (“G.L.U.E. – A Leadership Development Strategy to Bond and Unite.”)  This book is a must read for any business, any home, any community or ministry leader who needs to grow personal leadership effectiveness and create unity in the home, workplace and world. How does this fit into the discussion of minimizing disagreements and negative emotional energy that you describe? How did the COVID pandemic, shutdowns and all of that effect what you are trying to share in this book? Does this book, https://amzn.to/3Pf9plk (“GLUE”) help to create the same type of environment in the home as well as the workplace? How can someone who may be deeply involved in community projects use these precepts to rally support for the cause while still allowing personal and professional growth of those involved that may not always involve the organization? If you could sum up in one statement what the main takeaway your readers will have from this book, what would that be? How can someone obtain a copy of your book, https://amzn.to/3Pf9plk (“G.L.U.E. – A Leadership Development Strategy to Bond and Unite,”) is it available on Amazon? Amy, this is so interesting. If someone has a question, how can they get in touch with you or obtain more information? I'll put links to all of this down in the show notes below… Folks, you need to obtain your own copy of Amy Kelly's book, https://amzn.to/3Pf9plk (“G.L.U.E. – A Leadership Development Strategy to Bond and Unite.”) This book will transform your life, your business and your relationships.

First question, other than that brief information I just shared, can you tell us in your own words, “Who is Amy Kelly?” Why did you write https://amzn.to/3Pf9plk (“GLUE”) and why do you believe it is so needful right now? You say your book, https://amzn.to/3Pf9plk (“GLUE,”) provides a framework to build relationships and trust – even in the midst of conflict.  How do you go about doing that? I can say, the story line you provide is riveting. I mean, I can relate to the premise of starting and running a business with a close friend, only to have that friend decide to branch off and do their own thing with the ideas you mutually developed. That happened to me about 25 years ago. And that relationship did not end well and still, to this day, really has not healed. Give us the quick synopsis of the story plot between Linda and Cindy… How did Linda's Faith help her to come to the point where she could accept Cindy's decision to leave the business and start her own? How does this fit into the discussion of minimizing disagreements and negative emotional energy that you describe? How did the COVID pandemic, shutdowns and all of that effect what you are trying to share in this book?

I've been a master facilitator with that for the last six or seven years, which has led me now to start my own company called Championship Mindset, and a lot of other things.” “Whether we're working with corporate clients, whether we're working with athletes, coaches, teams, it's really just focusing on helping them be the best that they can be.” “This championship mindset is the formula for success in all areas of our lives.” “At the end of the day, it really comes down to our talent, our hard work, our attitude, our mental toughness, our teamwork, and our passion into everything that we do.” “The things that I've learned through diving are the very things that helped me in my life outside of the pool.” “I would say everything for me starts with culture, we have to have the right culture.” “The first thing that we have to build is we have to build emotional safety.” “Players don't care about how much you know, until they know about how much you care about them.” “When we really think about what we've gone through this last 14 to 16 months, what we've really been doing is, we've been grieving.” “Just be there for your students be there for your players in this moment.” “It's okay to grieve the dream, but don't stay there.” “Regardless of those tough events that we go through, we still get to choose how we respond.” “How you do anything is how you do everything - and to me, that's the core of the championship mindset.” “How we view the world and more importantly, how we interact with the world, greatly affects what you get out of the world.” “If you have to go through it, you might as well grow through it.” “Own your journey, it's your journey, own it to the best that you can.” “We need to let our kids fail.” “The most powerful thing that you can say to your athlete when they're done competing is, ‘I love watching you compete. I love watching you play.' ” Links: The Pursuit of Gold Homepage Life at 10 Meters: Lessons from an Olympic Champion 5 Smart Strategies to Confidence Conquer Your Fear in 5 Days                   Laura's Social Media: Laura's Instagram Laura's Facebook page     Connect with Chad:   Champion Mindset Homepage   The Rock Tumbler   Championship Mindset Linktree   Championship Mindset Podcast   Championship Mindset Twitter   Championship Mindset Facebook   Championship Mindset Instagram     Resources:   The Power of Positive Leadership   The Gift of Failure   Win the Day
