Kristi shares with Joe her findings from conducting numerous interviews for her latest book, The Inspiration Code, and spoiler alert; it's about listening to those around you and actually paying attention to what they're saying, which Joe confesses to Kristi that his wife calls him out on occasion for that.

In this super-sized episode, Travis and Brandon discuss what makes a great manager, using 10 skills and traits developed by Google's Project Oxygen and updated over the last 10 years. What is the job of a manager? We discuss the role of a manager with this Google-developed evaluation framework as a guide: https://www.themuse.com/advice/10-behaviors-make-great-google-manager https://rework.withgoogle.com/guides/managers-identify-what-makes-a-great-manager/steps/learn-about-googles-manager-research/ Carol Dweck, fixed vs growth mindset https://www.brainpickings.org/2014/01/29/carol-dweck-mindset/ Travis’s magic question: “How would you like me to help with this?” Brandon’s Notes-Trello Listening-action framework Private Confluence space for 1:1 agendas with action items Conjoined triangles post https://frontside.io/blog/2016/07/07/the-conjoined-triangles-of-senior-level-development.html Simon Sinek: “Start with why” https://www.ted.com/talks/simon_sinek_how_great_leaders_inspire_action https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7108725-start-with-why HBR study about why people want people who could do their job https://hbr.org/2016/12/if-your-boss-could-do-your-job-youre-more-likely-to-be-happy-at-work Muse article: 1. “Is a Good Coach” Employees need and appreciate a manager who takes time to coach and challenge them, and not just when they’re behind. As Muse contributor Avery Augustine put it, “When it comes to clients, the squeaky wheel usually gets the grease.” The same is true, she said, of employees you manage. But “I realized that every employee needs to be managed—star performer or not,” she wrote. “And simply leaving some employees to do their jobs without any type of feedback or guidance was detrimental to their career development.” 2. “Empowers Team and Does Not Micromanage” Micromanaging’s a common mistake managers make without even realizing it, one that discourages and frustrates employees. But Google’s research found that its best managers don’t, instead offering the right balance of freedom and advice, showing they trust their direct reports, and advocating for the team, according to a sample breakdown from an internal presentation included in a 2013 Harvard Business Review article. 3. “Creates an Inclusive Team Environment, Showing Concern for Success and Well-Being” In the first iteration of the list, this was described as “expresses interest in and concern for team members’ success and personal well-being.” Several years later, the company’s updated this entry to reflect research on psychological safety that allows for risk-taking—which Google identified as an important characteristic of effective teams—and unbiasing, or the process of becoming aware of and combatting unconscious biases. It’s not enough just to have a diverse team, good leaders and managers strive to create an inclusive environment every day. 4. “Is Productive and Results-Oriented” Employees don’t want to work for a lazy boss. They'd rather be part of a team that’s productive and successful, and that’s hard to do if the leader doesn’t set the tone. Former Muse editor Adrian Granzella Larssen explained that becoming a boss means you have to be on model behavior. “As a manager, you'll be looked to as a role model,” she wrote. “You can’t expect people to give their best at work if they don’t see you doing it, so be sure you’re always on your A game.” That means putting in the effort and getting results. 5. “Is a Good Communicator—Listens and Shares Information” Communicating effectively is one of the basics of being a good manager (or a good employee for that matter). But it’s also important to remember that great managers prioritize listening. “Focused, curious listening conveys an emotional and personal investment in those who work for us,” according to Muse contributor Kristi Hedges. “When you listen to people, they feel personally valued. It signals commitment.” 6. “Supports Career Development and Discusses Performance” Google recently added the “discusses performance” component to this behavior. The company pointed to research from Gallup that found only half of employees know what expectations they should be fulfilling at work. “To free employees to take initiative and inspire high performance,” Gallup concluded, “managers need to set clear expectations, hold employees accountable for meeting them and respond quickly when employees need support.” In other words, managers should not only help their team develop skills and advance their careers, but also be clear about expectations and give honest feedback about performance. 7. “Has a Clear Vision/Strategy for the Team” Stephanie Davis, who won one of Google’s Great Manager Awards, told HBR that feedback reports helped her realize how important it was to communicate team vision in addition to company vision. “They wanted me to interpret the higher-level vision for them,” she said. “So I started listening to the company’s earnings call with a different ear. I didn’t just come back to my team with what was said; I also shared what it meant for them.” A clear and shared vision can also help members of your team work well together. 8. “Has Key Technical Skills to Help Advise the Team” When Google first released its list of behaviors, the findings were somewhat anti-climactic. “My first reaction was, that’s it?” Laszlo Bock, then the Vice President of People Operations, told The New York Times in 2011. The entries on the list may’ve been obvious, but their relative importance wasn’t, as Bock’s team found out when it ranked the behaviors. “In the Google context, we’d always believed that to be a manager, particularly on the engineering side, you need to be as deep or deeper a technical expert than the people who work for you,” he said. “It turns out that that’s absolutely the least important thing. It’s important, but pales in comparison.” So all hope isn’t lost if you find yourself managing people who know more than you. 9. “Collaborates Across the Organization” Google recently extended its list by two when its employee survey found that effective cross-organization collaboration and stronger decision-making were important to Googlers. Whether you’re at a large corporation, an early-stage startup, or a nonprofit, managing your team and leading it to success can depend at least in part on how well you can work with other teams. Muse contributor Rebecca Andruszka gave some tips for improving communication with other departments for “the collective betterment of the company” (and, as she wrote, to avoid feeling like you work in Congress). 10. “Is a Strong Decision Maker” Google’s last addition is a reminder that while it’s important for a manager to listen and share information, employees also appreciate one who can make decisions. Muse Founder and President Alex Cavoulacos urged managers to go one step further and tell their teams not only what decision they’ve made, but also why they’ve made it. The small extra effort helps the team understand context and priorities, improve their own future decision-making, and stay engaged as well as informed. One of the reasons this research was so effective was that it used internal data to prove what makes managers great at Google (and the company’s re:Work website provides some first steps for others who want to try to replicate its approach). But that doesn’t mean the list isn’t helpful for people who don’t work there. After all, Google did go from being a made-up word to a household name in just a few years. People and companies now look to it as an example, not only in innovation, but also in its approach to management.

克里斯蒂·海吉斯：4个方法，让你的灵感24小时在线对于艺术工作者来说，灵感是创作的源泉和动力。有灵感的时候,创作变得特别高效并充满乐趣，但是灵感一枯竭，创作就没了动力，甚至会陷入自我怀疑和厌恶的极端。领导力教练克里斯蒂·海吉斯（Kristi Hedges）在《哈佛商业评论》的一篇文章中提出，灵感并不是可遇不可求的，我们可以营造一个有利于找到灵感的环境。她提出了四个方法：第一，不要等到心情好才行动灵感不会在我们坐在办公桌前回复电子邮件时突然降临,不要等到灵光乍现时才进行改变。根据认知行为理论，我们的行为会影响自己的思维和情绪,所以一味等待行动时机，只会让情况维持不变。克里斯蒂认为，“不管你怎么做，都能够开辟新的可能性，还能揭示出一些你还未预料得到的情绪。其实，你比自己想象中更有能力去控制自己的工作环境。”第二，要养成找灵感的习惯有研究表示，人一旦把自己认定为专家，思维就会变得更狭窄。这种现象叫做“获得性思想僵化”（earned dogmatism）。我们要接触新的体验和信息，才能触发新的见解，这样我们才最有可能获得灵感，并且保持启发状态。上课、看书、讲座、旅行，每周拨出一点时间进行一些能够扩大视角的活动，也能帮助你保持参与并维持兴趣。第三，交一些新朋友找一些与你从事不同工作的人，把他们当作思想上的伙伴和导师。榜样之所以能带来灵感，是因为我们能够间接地通过他们的经验来学习。与这些人交往，你就能用另一种方式看待你的处境，并为自己找出更多可能性。第四，缩小选择范围心理学教授巴里·施瓦茨（Barry Schwartz）在《选择的悖论》一书中说到，拥有了太多选择，反而会使自己陷入瘫痪。只要把选择范围缩小，行动起来就会变得更容易，这样我们就会觉得更有动力。如果不知道如何选择，可以试试先把所有选择写下来，再选出其中三个最让你感到兴奋的选择；选完之后，你就要安排时间，为你的首选目标努力。海吉斯在文章最后说到：“这些活动不是只在你陷入低潮的时候才适用的。就算你灵感满满，也要继续进行这样的活动，这样你才能保持灵感不断。”

What is life without inspiration?  To me it sounds a bit boring. Of course inspiration can come from anywhere, but because we spend the bulk of our time in the workplace, it is a natural setting to seek it out. Conversely, if you’re the boss, don’t you want to be seen as somebody who inspires? It’s easier said than done, but thanks to our guest this week, executive coach Kristi Hedges, there are everyday actions that any leader can take to be an inspiring and motivating force.   In her latest book, The Inspiration Code: How the Best Leaders Energize People Every Day, Kristi shows how to become a leader who builds commitment and fosters greatness in others. Having spent years studying exactly what inspiring leaders do differently, Kristi likes to think of inspirational people as the four Ps:PRESENT: investing their full attention and letting conversations flowPERSONAL: speaking genuinely, listening generously, and acknowledging the potential of those around themPASSIONATE: exhibiting sincere emotion and exuding energy attuned to the situationPURPOSEFUL: helping others find meaning and see their place in the bigger pictureIf you think your boss might be missing one of the Ps, maybe it’s time to pull him or her aside and have a friendly chat...
