Was haben Güte, Hoffnung und Kindness, das World Economic Forum in Davos, eine kleine Tochter und Kuchen backen mit Transformation Leadership zu tun? Nun ja, sehr viel - wenn man Silvia Wiesner kennenlernt und von ihr lernen darf. Aber alles der Reihe nach: „Was mache ich hier? Ich kenne ja niemanden“. Es war September 2022 und ich war Einladung der wunderbaren Katharina Wolff bei den STRIVE Awards. Ich hatte die Ehre, in der Jury zu sein und da war es klar, dass ich beim Award-Abend dabei bin. Also reiste ich - alleine und ohne Entourage - in meine Traumstadt Berlin und stand mit einem Glas Wasser etwas verloren herum. Da sprach mich plötzlich Silvia Wiesner an und wir kamen ins Plaudern. Ehe ich mich versah, stand ich in einer sehr anregenden Runde von Menschen, die alle im Bereich Diversity und Female Future maßgeblich die Wege der Zukunft formen. Ich kann mich daran erinnern, dass sehr viel gelacht wurde und ich mir dachte, Silvia muss in den Podcast. Zum Einen, weil sie als Leaderin sehr viel bewegt und gleichzeitig ihre Menschlichkeit so sehr bewahrt hat. Und heute ist es soweit und Silvia Wiesner ist endlich im futureOne HEROES Podcast. Wer sie googelt wird herausfinden, dass sie Mitglied von Egon Zehnder, einem der weltweit führenden Unternehmen für Leadership-Advisory, ist und davor knapp 20 Jahre im Top-Management von Unilever war. Sie ist Mutter einer Tochter und hat auf ihrer bisherigen Reise die Themen Equity, Diversity und Inclusion zu ihren Hauptthemen in den Fokus gestellt. Sie wurde 2021 als Young Global Leader des World Economic Forums ausgewählt und ist Mitglied des Exekutivkomitees von European Women on Boards. Ich sprach mit ihr über ihren radikalen Karrierechange und warum die Kraft einer Community ausschlaggebend für den eigenen Erfolg ist und warum sich gerade ehrgeizige Menschen wieder an Güte und Kindness erinnern müssen. Und als ich ihr die Frage alle Fragen stellte, nämlich wie sie zur Ruhe kommt, wurde ich nicht nur überrascht, sondern daran erinnert, dass es die simplen Dinge sind, die uns Menschen in der lauten Welt helfen. Liebe Menschen, genießt dieses Gespräch mit Silvia Wiesner, die sehr offen und authentisch über ihr Leben erzählt und gleich am Anfang Einblicke darin gibt, wie denn das World Economic Forum in Davos wirklich so ist.

Today's guest - Geoff Smart - has literally revolutionized the way companies around the world think about talent and leadership. The leadership advisory Geoff founded - G.H. Smart - is on speed-dial of the world's top CEOs, private equity investors, and corporate board members - who call when crucial and complex leadership challenges need an elegant, data-driven solution - like CEO succession and executive team composition. In much the same way that Professor Michael Porter of the Harvard Business School redefined the way companies think about strategy formulation, Geoff and his colleagues at G.H. Smart - have forever changed the way companies around the world think about talent. Until Geoff quantified a practical approach to assessing leadership potential and culture fit, companies were forced to naively rely on 'gut feel' and instinct. The G.H. Smart approach is 10X more effective. As Geoff's former professor and management guru - Peter Drucker - famously said, 'culture eats strategy for breakfast.' And now, decades later, G.H. Smart helps clients - every single day - bring this vision to life. www.imperfectleaders.com

The Inner Work of Inclusive Leadership “We need to be able to be so attuned to what's going out around you. And the only way to do that in a stable way is by being rooted in the way you are. In really understanding…OK, is this me? This constant evaluating.” In Episode 27, I am joined by Rose Cartolari, Founder and Director of RC Consulting, which specialises in Leadership Advisory and Executive Coaching, to discuss the inner work of inclusive leadership, primarily focusing on the importance of self-reflection and flexibility as a leader, and the dissonance between being a successful leader and an inclusive leader. Rose's interest in DEI is evident through her 30-year career journey. Rose has had experiences in management roles for large organisations such as American Express and UNICEF, and experiences teaching at elite business schools in the US and Italy, as well as co-founding and serving as COO of Scharper Pharmaceuticals SpA. Rose's experiences has empowered her to embark on a mission to bring diverse voices into all spaces where decisions are made. To accomplish her mission in promoting DEI, she is a TedX speaker, a co-author of Winning Mindset and she serves on the Executive Committee of European Women on Boards. She also sits on the Advisory Board of DiverCity magazine and is a member of the invitation-only Forbes Coaches Council. Upon exploring what DEI means to her, we speak about the importance of being an inclusive leader, such as the difficulties in balancing the intellectual friction between creating a culture of psychological safety and a culture that promotes freedom of speech, and the challenges technology and global ways of working bring to leaders in the DEI space. As we explore in our conversation, there seems to be a disconnect in what is required from leaders - as an inclusive leader, it is important to show humanity and vulnerability to your employees, but as a successful leader, it is important to show competence. The difficulties in balancing these intellectual frictions are what is dampening the efforts of leaders to fully embrace diversity, equity and inclusion.Rose mentions that in order to help them overcome these difficulties, it is imperative that there is a renewed focus on empowering leaders, not on fixing them in the DEI space. To finish our conversation, I ask Rose about how leaders can learn to embrace the inner work of inclusion. She believes it lies greatly on self-reflection, having that courage to take that step towards inclusion, receiving support and encouragement from others and leading with empathy. As such, leaders can then become someone who is reliable, trustworthy and influential, but it takes courage to make that step towards diversity, equity and inclusion. She finishes insightfully by saying that we should focus on ‘not carrying leaders but really coaching them, not fixing them but empowering them'. By doing this, we are taking a step further in promoting and perfecting the inner work of inclusive leadership.

Interview on "M&A Stories from Leadership and Cultural Perspective" with Richard A. Vincent Show Notes: A large number of uncertainties in M&A happen due to cultural differences e.g. when a Dutch company buys an Asian company. Leadership can define the strategy but leadership also defines the culture. How do people behave? How do people act together as a team? Do they operate in siloes or do they act as a cohesive leadership team? Culture is usually an afterthought and most often, the effort for cultural integration is highly underestimated. Culturally in the Netherlands, people try to do all the things themselves as a culture whereas, in Germany, they may engage external resources. In economies like Singapore, Indonesia, and other parts of Asia, they regularly engage external resources. For culture, one could use the “Competing Values Framework” of Cameron-Quinn. One aspect of cultural difference is the difference of continents i.e. between Europe and China, India, ASEAN where the cultural differences are bigger than between countries in a region. Watch this episode and learn more about what Richard A. Vincent has to say about Leadership and Culture in M&A transactions. Richard A. Vincent has worked in human resources for over two decades, with extensive experience in mergers and acquisitions, international HR, and in senior EMEA & APAC management roles in Executive Search, Leadership & Organizational Consulting such as Korn Ferry (Europe & Asia), PageGroup (Germany) and Robert Half (Europe & Asia). He founded RIVIONT in 2017 focusing on Leadership Advisory, Interim Management, and Executive Search solutions. As Board Advisor I led and delivered over 500 Executive Search projects in Europe & Asia markets. Transformed, trained, coached over 50 geographical and functional leadership teams spanning 27 countries to self-awareness, effectiveness, and some of them to global top-performing teams.

Full show notes at www.LearningLeader.com Twitter/IG: @RyanHawk12 The Learning Leader Show With Ryan Hawk Episode #400 with Keith Hawk & AJ Hawk Notes: I sourced questions from members of my Leadership Circle, friends, listeners, and colleagues for this episode... How does Keith continue to feel impactful after retirement? KH: "It's like I have a paper route. I work a little bit in the mornings, get my work done, and then I can go have fun with my friends. I work on a few boards, do voice over work, and know how to hit the post." What has AJ learned from working with Pat McAfee? "I learned to trust my instincts and not try to be somebody I'm not." What's the best way to make introductions? AJ: "Text (message) intros are so much better. They are more personal." From Leadership Circle member, Amanda Wilson: "What habit do you admire the most in each other/best attribute?" Pistol about AJ: "He's an unbelievable teammate. He has earned the respect of all his peers. I respect his intensity to prepare." Pistol about Ryan: "A huge preparation guy. His focus on other people. He has more of an outer focus now. And a huge intensity around growth." "Gotta change, Gotta grow." AJ about Pistol: Consistency. He wakes up early. I never saw him asleep. He never made us do anything. I want to live up to that standard. I don't want my kids to see me asleep. And universally, everyone loves him." AJ about Ryan: "You're a mini-version of Pistol with your consistency. So detail oriented. Such a leader and not afraid to hold people accountable. People have confidence that you'll take them where they want to go." Ryan about Pistol: Absolute selflessness. Reminds me of my wife, Miranda. A willingness to always help others succeed and will do anything for them. Ryan about AJ: A relentless work ethic. A drive to be there for the people who depend on him. Whenever I talk with teammates of AJ, they all say the same thing, "That's my guy. I know he'll be where he's supposed to be when he's supposed to be there. I can depend on him." He shows up to work everyday and gets it done. Being selfless: Pistol - "My success is better and richer if it follows other people's success." From Jeff Leung (Sr. Engineer at Facebook): "As the father of two young boys, I would love to hear how you and your brother AJ grew up in a way that you cheer for each other more than compete?" A mutual love and respect for each others work. An appreciation for what the other does. From Doug Meyer, Co-Founder/CEO of Brixey & Meyer: "What was your reaction when you heard Ryan was  leaving a high paying job at a large company to take a substantial pay cut to start a Leadership Advisory practice at Brixey & Meyer?" Pistol: "Joy, fun, fulfillment. I was so excited for him." AJ: "Of course. He's gonna kill it." Give an example how you handled when one of your kids wanted to do something but you thought it was a mistake? "When Ryan was at Miami, I probably pushed him too hard to transfer so that he would get another shot to be a starting QB after losing the job to Ben Roethlisberger. I sometimes have thoughts that he could have moved positions and become Julian Edelman." From Nate DeMars (Founder/Owner of Pursuit) - "You guys have all moved onto what I guess you could consider second careers recently… How do you approach starting over as a novice in a new field?" "There is no excuse to not learn everything about what you want to do. There is so much out there to read and watch and people to talk to. If you don't learn it, it's your fault." Find something you care about, that you're passionate about, and pursue that. "Deal with imposter syndrome when you're new. There's never been a better time to learn something new." Life experiences that have shaped you. Pistol, what experiences shaped AJ/Ryan? Playing for the legendary Bob Gregg and Ron Ullery. They molded you and helped you: Faced the requirement to prepare a lot Learned how to be a great teammate Learned to compete hard Learned to take tough, critical feedback, became coachable Learned how to be a leader How to deal with great teammates, but bad coaches? AJ: "It doesn't help to complain and be negative. Be quiet. Do your job." And strive to learn from those who aren't good at their job so that you don't repeat what they do. The Rex Caswell exercise: When you're new, write in a journal in two columns. One is for the great actions of your boss and the other is for the not helpful behaviors. Keep it with you and review it as you continue to get promoted. Pistol: "Wrap yourself in the mission. Don't wrap yourself in negativity." "It's the duty of the leader to be in a good mood." We conducted our first draft. The topic: Our favorite sports movies (listen to hear who we picked).

Don't forget to subscribe and rate us on Apple Podcasts! Why Welcome to Management is a great book for new leaders The specific topic I wrote about in Welcome to Management is really personal to me because I vividly remember when I got promoted at a young age, from an individual sales professional to leading a team of 16 people, and how ill-prepared I was. I thought I was fully prepared because I had been a leader on the football field as a quarterback. I had some success, and I thought that would transition into the business world. While some of those experiences and actions were helpful, for the most part not much transitioned into the business world and so I had so much to learn. Unfortunately, I learned the hard way by making many mistakes over years before I became an average manager. So I thought there wasn't really the manual or playbook out there to help somebody in my position when I was making that leap, so I wanted to solve that problem and write that book. Have your own Personal Board of Advisors One of the keys when you become a person in a leadership role is you have to get very clear on creating your personal board of advisors. Who are those people that you're going to surround yourself with, that you can go to when you have questions, problems, issues? Who are those few people that you can go to to say, “Wow, I had no idea this was going to happen. This was really surprising. How would you handle this?” You need to be intentional about creating that board of advisors – just a handful of people who are there for you, care about you and willing to be honest with you. That's something that I would get set and get clear on right away as you're working to get promoted or you've been promoted. You're going to need those people, so get it set up properly from the beginning. Find the right people for your team Be very intentional about first identifying what excellence looks like, what are the qualities you really want, what are the types of behaviors of people that you really want – getting really crystal-clear on that – then creating a system before identifying if the people you are interviewing possess those behaviors and qualities. That's something I was not very good at when I was a new manager. I just had a list of questions forwarded to me by another manager who had been in the job for a few years, that had been forwarded to them, and there was no real rhyme or reason for the questions we were asking in the interview. We didn't even fully know what we were looking for. I would just ask questions and then use my gut instinct to make a call. When you're talking about the building of your team and the people, they're going to make or break you as a leader.   Links and Resources Connect with Ryan: Twitter | LinkedIn https://learningleader.com/ Welcome to Management: How to Grow From Top Performer to Excellent Leader by Ryan Hawk Ryan's Productivity Tools: Calendar, Google Suite, Google Keep, Kindle, Evernote
