Podcasts about leadership beyond

Masculine traits. Feminine traits. Can we please stop gendering leadership skills and focus instead on the human traits that will enable us to thrive?Today, I speak with culture and leadership expert Moe Carrick about gender traits in leadership. We discuss the traditional leadership narratives and the negative impact that has on both men and women in the workplace. We talk about the crisis for men and boys right now and why men are falling behind in all sectors. Moe shares the difference between emotionality and emotional intelligence and how we can help debunk outdated myths of masculinity. And she shares some great stories from past clients and what they were able to achieve as a leadership team in tough times when they embraced emotional intelligence and vulnerability. We dissect the current backlash toward more "masculine” energy in the workplace, which will only hinder our innovation and success, and the role women leaders can play to encourage healthier, more emotionally grounded leadership. To access the episode transcript, please search for the episode title at www.TheEmpathyEdge.comKey Takeaways:Gender has nothing to do with being a successful leader. While some traits may be considered more masculine or feminine in energy, skills are not gendered - they are all human traits.There is a difference between emotionality and emotional intelligence. Emotionality is unmetabolized emotional expression. Emotional intelligence is a source of data helping us navigate emotionality.Everyone needs to resist their own internal messaging about what good leadership looks like - it is not command and control or blaming and shaming. It is empathy and collaboration. "If we're going to encourage male vulnerability and male emotions in the same ways we experience and give women permission to express feelings, we need to be prepared to not jump into fixing and solving what they're struggling with." — Moe CarrickEpisode References:The Empathy Edge: Pam Fox Rollin: How to Grow Your Group Into a TeamThe Athena Doctrine By John Gerzema and Michael D'AntonioAtlas of the Heart by Brené BrownRichard Reeves: Institute for Men and BoysSuitsFrom Our Partner:SparkEffect partners with organizations to unlock the full potential of their greatest asset: their people.

Today's conversation with Dot Proux (a community member, podcast guest and dear friend) represents a natural evolution in our journey—moving from facilitating discussions about leadership challenges to offering collaborative, tailored solutions.

While our individual practices serve different aspects of leadership development—Tom focusing on the persuasive arts and executive coaching through Diamond Mind, and Adrienne specializing in enterprise-level change leadership through Positive Delta—our shared commitment to people-first leadership unites our approach.

“Keep it simple and focus on what matters. Don't let yourself be overwhelmed.” -Confucius The Power of the Pause Congratulations to our co-host Adrienne Guerrero on rocking her TEDx talk on the Power of the Pause. She did it! We'll keep you posted when it's published. You won't want to miss it! The P.A.U.S.E framework emerged from Adrienne's personal struggles with the symptoms of living and doing from a reactive state. She learns what she teaches, teaches as she learns! A Leadership Beyond emerged as we saw our synergy and had big ideas, inspiring possibilities of working together. COVID struck and voila, "we can't do this!" We pulled over, asking, "what can we do?" We've gone from lunch and learn, to blog, to podcast, to community of conversation. We think you'll enjoy this insightful conversation between co-founders Adrienne Guerrero and Tom Rosenak, as we discuss Adrienne's recent TEDx experience, the framework, and how this concept can help leaders navigate today's fast-paced, distraction-filled environment. Key Highlights: The PAUSE Framework: A practical approach for leaders to escape reactivity and make strategic decisions: Pull over: Find your technique to calm your mind (meditation, breathing, movement) Assess: Ask "what is true" and "what needs to be true" challenging your assumptions U turn: Uncover possible options after grounding in values Start: Take action, no matter how small Evaluate: Reflect and determine next steps The Strategic Value: In today's VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, Ambiguous) environment: Leaders often sacrifice strategy for tactical "box-checking" The pause framework helps identify what truly matters versus mere motion Small, intentional steps can create meaningful progress toward important goals Our Community Support: Practical tools to make strategic pausing easier, including assessments, frameworks, and execution support Accountability and guidance through workshops, executive coaching, and change leadership support. Help with staying focused on what you're "counting on to win" rather than being pulled into constant reactivity Join us for our next episode of A Leadership Beyond, where we'll continue to explore ways our guests have gone from survive to thrive in today's complex leadership landscape.

How important it is to walk along, not in haste but slowly, looking at everything and calling out Yes! No! The swan, for all his pomp, his robes of grass and petals, wants only to be allowed to live on the nameless pond. The catbrier is without fault. The water thrushes, down among the sloppy rocks, are going crazy with happiness. Imagination is better than a sharp instrument. To pay attention, this is our endless and proper work. — Mary Oliver, "Yes! No!" Owls and Other Fantasies: Poems and Essays, Beacon Press, Boston, 2003, p. 27   In this week's release of A Leadership Beyond, hosts Adrienne Guerrero and Tom Rosenak welcomed Michele Stowe, founder of Skyrocket Coaching, to discuss her continuous journey of aligning work with her core life values. Michele's story offers valuable insights for leaders seeking to create healthier work environments, achieve success with personal balance. During the interview, Michele shared valuable insights about leadership and energy management along with other insightst: The impact of energy: Nonprofit C-suite leaders are experiencing unprecedented challenges in today's environment. One client told her, "I just don't want to keep leading in unprecedented times," having navigated through the pandemic and continued uncertainty. There are always trade offs and we must learn to make choices with greater intentionality. Intentional role modeling: Leaders must be thoughtful about how they spend their time and demonstrate this to their teams. By showing employees that there are various ways to restore energy—whether through hiking, playing music, or spending time with family—leaders create space for everyone to find what works for them. Understanding cultural dynamics: Michele emphasized the importance of recognizing the cultural dynamics at play in an organization—including geographic, sector-specific, company, and generational differences in work expectations—and determining whether one's values align with that culture. After interviewing 100 nonprofit C-suite leaders with more than five years in their roles, Michele developed a framework for effective leadership: The Listen, Lead, and Love Your Work framework which she shares during our conversation. Michelle's story reminds us that leaders have the power to shape both their own work experiences and their organizational cultures. By listening deeply, modeling self-care, finding joy in work, and establishing meaningful measures of success, leaders can create environments where both they and their teams thrive.

Episode #341 // In this episode, I address a question from Virginie Hoareau, one of our dedicated listeners and Leadership Beyond the Theory alumna. Virginie asked if I could discuss the different stages of a business, and whether a different type of leadership is required for each.How critical is it to match a leader's style to a business phase? And can any leader be successful in any stage of an organization's lifecycle? Even though I often talk about different leadership styles, and how they affect your ability to achieve results, I've never really addressed how different styles can be matched to different situations.I begin the episode by examining the conundrum between being authentic, and the need to adapt to your circumstances; I talk about each of the three main phases of a business, and the skills required for each; and I finish with some practical tips for understanding which phase best suits your style, and how to develop the capabilities that will make you wildly successful, no matter which phase of a business you find yourself in.————————Get the insider edge with the No Bullsh!t Leadership Hub on Skool - completely FREE!Join like-minded leaders who love the podcast and dive into exclusive resources, real conversations, and weekly challenges designed to sharpen your leadership game.Don't miss out, join now!————————You can connect with me at:Website: https://www.yourceomentor.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/yourceomentorInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/yourceomentorLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/martin-moore-075b001/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@YourCEOMentor————————Our mission here at Your CEO Mentor is to improve the quality of leaders, globally.

Welcome to A Leadership Beyond, where we explore business challenges through a people-centered lens. In today's episode, we sit down with Ryan Englin, author of "Hire Better People Faster" and founder of Core Matters, who brings a fresh perspective to recruiting and retention in the trades and service industries. Drawing from his personal experience growing up in a blue-collar household, Ryan watched his father - a successful business owner - spend countless hours on hiring and managing his team. This inspired Ryan's passion to find a better way. After founding his own marketing company, he discovered that effective recruiting was fundamentally a marketing challenge, leading him to develop streamlined processes and automation tools that help businesses hire and retain the right people. Today, he shares transformative insights about building successful teams. Key takeaways from our conversation: • Recruiting is fundamentally a marketing activity, not an HR function - organizations need to become attractive to potential employees just as they work to attract customers • The trades don't have a labor shortage, they have a retention crisis - the challenge isn't finding people, it's creating an environment where they want to stay • Successful hiring requires a holistic approach - from clear definition of what "good" looks like, to proper assessment tools, and comprehensive onboarding that shows you have your act together Thank you for joining us for this enlightening conversation with Ryan Englin. His practical insights about treating employees as whole human beings and building systems that support both hiring and retention remind us that great leadership starts with how we view and value our people. Join us next time as we continue exploring leadership perspectives that challenge conventional wisdom and offer fresh solutions to today's business challenges. We'd love to hear from you and encourage you to take advantage of our People Strategy Hour. This is a no obligation way to look at your business challenges through the lens of People strategy using data on YOUR people.

Brian Gottlieb, author of Beyond the Hammer, joins Patrick Baldwin in The Boardroom to share his inspiring story. From launching his home improvement business with just $3,000 and a folding table, Brian built a thriving organization with 600 employees.

***At the beginning I say "This episode will be short..." I changed my mind, about a minute later.***How often do we mistake social media activism for genuine political resistance? Join me on the Jack Hopkins Show as I share my journey from a lifelong Republican to a committed Democrat, challenging the performative nature of online activism within the Democratic Party. Through my experiences with social media "acid tests," we explore how emotional responses can pierce through societal facades to reveal true motivations and beliefs. This episode is a candid reflection on the complexity of human psychology and the habitual fronts we present in everyday life.(This episode is not linearly presented. I go in whatever direction is prompted by my thoughts. If you want a "Get right to the point" episode, this is not the one for you. If you are interested in listening to how my brain works, and how I can let it take me places...and just go with it, then you might really enjoy it.)What role does age play in leadership, and how should it influence our political decisions? We tackle this critical question, focusing on the implications of electing older leaders like President Biden and the responsibilities of Vice President Harris. By addressing the physiological, neurological, and psychological aspects associated with aging, I argue for honest assessments beyond political correctness to preserve democracy. Through a lens of transparency and accountability, we confront the power dynamics of anticipatory obedience and its potential to erode democratic systems.Authenticity in communication is more crucial than ever, especially in politics. Throughout this episode, I emphasize the importance of unscripted dialogue and genuine self-expression. Drawing parallels with individuals who've faced similar challenges, I share my personal journey toward embracing authenticity, stressing the value of honest engagement even when it challenges leadership. Together, let's explore the power of being true to ourselves and the impact it can have on fostering meaningful connections in today's political landscape. Tune in for an hour and 40 minutes of engaging reflections, and find liberation in embracing your true self.Support the showThe Jack Hopkins Now Newsletter https://wwwJackHopkinsNow.com

As the year winds down, the holiday season's chaos often drowns out critical reflection.  To grow as leaders, we must intentionally create space for thoughtful review—pausing the reactive frenzy to revisit values, acknowledge missteps, reconnect with relationships, and reignite aspirations before diving into next year's goals and plans.  This deliberate pause provides an opportunity to transform end-of-year busyness from a distraction to a time of meaningful personal and professional renewal. As co-founders of A Leadership Beyond, Adrienne and Tom are practicing what we teach: taking a purposeful pause to reflect before rushing into action. While we're excited about an upcoming year filled with panel discussions, new services, and leadership strategies, we're first taking time to thoughtfully review, learn, and realign.  This approach embodies the essence of our podcast—demonstrating that true leadership begins with intentional reflection. This episode is an invitation to all leaders to step back, breathe, and create space for meaningful reflection before diving into the river of reactivity. We explore the power of pausing, examining our accomplishments, learning from challenges, and realigning with our core values as we prepare for the coming year. Highlights of the conversation: Importance of carving space for personal reflection, even amidst the busy holiday season. Practical strategies for taking 10-15 minutes to reconnect to core values and assess what you accomplished  and what may need refinement. How personal touches can increase engagement through deeper connection.  Understanding the power of M2  in your S.M.A.R.T goal setting. Effective goals must be meaningful, motivating and measurable.  Importance of finding trusted partners to provide objective feedback. Sometimes a partner with no skin in that game can shed valuable light on your dilemma. The overall message is that taking a purposeful pause for reflection and renewal can transform the end-of-year chaos into a meaningful time of personal and professional growth for leaders.

For this week's episode, we're revisiting a clip from a fascinating panel discussion from our vault that explores how HR professionals can become true strategic partners in their organizations. But before we jump in, let's frame the conversation through the lens of Talent Optimization, a critical framework that many organizations are missing.  Adrienne and I work together to help organizations leverage people data to drive success in their business strategy. Think of Talent Optimization as the strategic alignment of your people strategy with your business objectives. It's like a well choreographed dance where your workforce capability, team dynamics and organizational culture move in perfect sync with your business goals. When this alignment is off, the consequences can be severe. And that's exactly what we'll hear about in this clip from our conversation with Matt Poepsel, often referred to as the “Godfather of Talent Optimization”. Matt talks about the real business costs of misalignment. And it turns out that most business problems are people problems in disguise. Tune in to learn about the damage that's done when we don't align our people strategy and our business strategy -and what you can do to bring your people and business goals back into sync. Listen now and start transforming your people strategy into a powerful lever for success.

Energy Creating Engagement for Sustainable Performance For this week's episode we are revisiting the podcast vault as we prepare for a new leadership series focused on Employee Engagement.  Our hosts Adrienne and Tom continue to glean gems from a previously released engaging conversation with Bryan Sykes.   Bryan Sykes is a healthcare professional, neurobiologist, and martial artist working at the 4-way intersection of people, science, technology, and business to support human thriving. Bryan shares his journey of exploring performance enhancement and how the realm of athletics emerges as an illuminating beacon. Bryan touches on themes of well-being, energy management, and creating an environment that fosters engagement - all of which are relevant to our upcoming engagement series. Our hosts are excited to "round the house again" and bring Sykes' insights back into the conversation.  Key Highlights from this dynamic conversation:  - Bryan has a background in medicine and sports psychology, and he draws insights from how athletes prepare, perform, and recover that are applicable to professionals in any field.  - Bryan is passionate about helping people and organizations understand the neurobiology and science behind managing mental, physical, emotional, and social energy. He believes this is key to avoiding burnout and elevating engagement.  - Bryan emphasizes the importance of creating space, pausing, and reflecting in order to learn and grow, rather than just constantly pushing for productivity and checking tasks off a list.  - He challenges the notion that people are inherently resistant to change, arguing that people are primed for change but often struggle with the process of changing. Providing the right support and environment is crucial.  - He advocates for a "humanity-centered" rather than just "human-centered" approach, considering the broader, long-term impacts on society and the planet, not just short-term business goals.  A Leadership Beyond aligns powerfully with Bryan's focus on holistic, scientific, and human-centric approach to elevating engagement and well-being, providing a sound foundation for the themes we plan to explore in our upcoming engagement series.  A Leadership Beyond exists to support the alignment between the business strategy and people strategy - to drive results with people not at the expense of people (Talent Optimization).

In this episode, we dive into the concept of moral imagination as an antidote to the arrogant assumptions that can easily creep into leadership. Inspired by Jacqueline Novogratz's book Manifesto For A Moral Revolution, we explore how leaders can envision a more just and inclusive future by embracing humility, empathy, and authenticity. We'll discuss practical steps for developing moral imagination, from building trust to challenging the status quo, and how these actions can shape a healthier, more equitable workplace for everyone.And connect with me for more great content!

In this enlightening discussion, we explore the profound impact of humility and optimism in spiritual leadership. We're reminded of the power of staying grounded in our faith, even as we grow in influence. The conversation draws parallels to biblical figures who maintained their humility despite their elevated status. We're challenged to consider: How can we cultivate a spirit of humility and optimism in our own spiritual journeys? This message encourages us to reflect on our approach to leadership and service, urging us to focus on loving God's word and His people above all else. It's a call to embrace a Christ-centric life, where we revolve around Him rather than expecting Him to revolve around us. As we contemplate these insights, we're invited to examine our own hearts and motivations in our walk with God. -- Connect with: Pastor Adam Mesa https://www.instagram.com/amesa/ Pastor Will Chung https://www.instagram.com/willkchung/ -- Don't forget to stay connected with us: Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4OvpFp9OB9_DgVdVVbXhFg Instagram https://www.instagram.com/beyond.theletter/ Tik Tok https://www.tiktok.com/discover/beyond-the-letter -- Have a question?

"A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty." – Winston Churchill The path to extraordinary leadership is rarely a straight line. It's a winding journey, paved with adversity, setbacks, and the courage to chart a course beyond the status quo. It takes a unique blend of determination, resilience, and humility to stay the course and bring others along to the land of A Leadership Beyond. In this episode, we sit down with Anatoliy Labinskiy, whose story embodies the spirit of leadership that goes beyond the confines of a traditional career. From humble beginnings as an immigrant in Dubai to building multiple seven-figure businesses, Anatoliy has navigated the ups and downs of entrepreneurship with a relentless drive to create a better future - for himself, his family, and the teams he's assembled along the Way. Anatoliy has a unique blend of grit, innovation, and an unwavering commitment to his team. In this insightful discussion, Anatoliy shares the key qualities that have propelled his success, the strategies he's employed to cultivate a high-performing, remote workforce, and his perspective on leveraging emerging technologies like AI to stay ahead of the curve. His experiences and lessons offer a roadmap for leaders who are ready to lead. Key highlights include: • The three critical qualities for entrepreneurial success:  All-in determination Willingness to take big risks  Defining a strong "why" beyond just money • Cultivating an "extreme ownership" mindset in his remote team, where each person is an entrepreneur of their own role. This drives accountability and Results. • Leveraging AI strategically to boost productivity and efficiency, without letting it dehumanize the workforce. Anatoliy emphasizes adapting skills to complement AI rather than being replaced by it. • Three leadership encouragements for the new world:  Never stop learning Genuinely care for your team Diligently track performance metrics to identify and address issues Anatoliy's journey is a powerful example of how grit, resilience, and a steadfast commitment to one's vision can pave the way to success, even when the odds may seem stacked against us. This is a valuable lesson for anyone looking to lead beyond the constraints of the ordinary and make a lasting impact. We welcome and encourage the continued participation of all our listeners, whether you're an established leader, an aspiring entrepreneur, or simply someone seeking to cultivate a mindset and approach that can create positive change.

"You will have bad times, but they will always wake you up to the stuff you weren'tpaying attention to." - Robin Williams Welcome back, community! After a brief summer hiatus,  our hosts Adrienne and Tom are excited to return with a special episode focusing on mindfulness and leadership. This episode builds on our recent sprint of panel discussions covering a wide array of leadership topics, including two panels on wellbeing at the individual, team, enterprise, and global levels.   In the introduction to this episode Adrienne Guerrero and Tom Rosenak set the stage for our guest interview: They discuss the constant pressure on leaders to "keep going" without adequate time for strategic thinking and reflection. They emphasize the interconnectedness of individual well-being, team performance, and business outcomes like retention and engagement. The co-founders liken self-care to maintenance in a mechanical system - neglectingthe "human machines" inevitably leads to decreased productivity. They stress the importance of open conversations about stress and well-being, even when additional resources aren't available. Adrienne and Tom highlight the need for personalized approaches to stress management, acknowledging that everyone experiences stress and VUCA (Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, and Ambiguity) differently. We're thrilled to welcome back Dot Proux our featured guest, who previously joined us on a panel about self-leadership. Dot is an executive coach and leadership development advisor who teaches an 8-week Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) course. Highlights from our conversation with Dot: Dot's background: Before becoming a coach, she was a partner at a Big 4 accounting firm, experiencing high stress and burnout firsthand. Personal experience: Dot shares her journey with "cliffing" - pushing herself too hard until her body forced her to stop and recover. Empathy in coaching: She now uses her personal experiences to connect with and support her high-performing, high-stress leadership clients. Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) benefits: Research shows that MBSR can improve focus, present moment awareness, and overall well-being. Course structure: Dot's 8-week MBSR program includes: Formal and informal mindfulness exercises Accountability and support from a cohortGradual building of the "mindfulness muscle"   Opportunity to join Dot's Fall MBSR Cohort To enroll in the upcoming fall program or learn more about mindfulness, visit:  https://aleadershipbeyond.com/mindfulness-based-stress-reduction/ Join us as we continue to explore leadership practices that keep the human front and center in the face of the sometimes dehumanizing modern leadership challenges.

In this podcast episode, Avik Chakraborty interviews Cheri Mason, a trailblazer who rose from humble beginnings to become the first woman and military spouse to serve as chairman of the Board of Veterans Appeals at the Department of Veterans Affairs. Cheri shares her inspiring journey from the foothills of Appalachia, where she faced significant challenges, including the loss of her father and societal stigma around mental health. She emphasizes the importance of perseverance, relationships, and support systems in overcoming adversity. Cheri discusses her concept of relational leadership, which focuses on building connections and trust within an organization. She highlights how understanding and investing in people can lead to innovation and better collaboration. Cheri also shares a pivotal moment in her career when she moved to Germany and took on a role as an executive secretary, which taught her valuable leadership skills and strategic thinking. Throughout the conversation, Cheri underscores the significance of making employees feel valued and the impact of positive leadership on both individuals and organizations. She advises aspiring leaders to build relationships, seek mentors, and focus on the human aspect of leadership to create meaningful change.

Jason Marks and Gladys Kline are joined by Digit Murphy, a trailblazing leader in sports and business, to discuss the vital role of women in leadership, sales, and technology. They explore the challenges and opportunities women face in these fields, sharing insights on how to break barriers, lead with confidence, and inspire the next generation of female leaders in the industry.

Leadership in today's dynamic world demands more than just managing others -- it requires mastering oneself. Our engaging panel discussions on diverse leadership topics consistently lead us back to a fundamental concept: our internal locus of control and how we respond to the challenges of change.  Dr. Ana Kazan eloquently defines self-leadership as "the practice of intentionally influencing your thinking, feeling and actions towards your objectives." This powerful idea forms the foundation of our exploration into personal and professional growth.  In a lively and interactive conversation, Dotty Posto and Dot Proux, draw from their rich career experiences and their passion for guiding others. Pause, breathe, smile.

In this thought-provoking discussion, we explore the concept of obsession and its role in achieving excellence. Just as Kobe Bryant's obsessive work ethic led to his basketball greatness, we're challenged to consider how our own obsessions might be channeled for spiritual growth and Kingdom impact. The conversation draws parallels to Jesus' relationship with His disciples, reminding us that true leadership often involves 'makership' - the hands-on process of developing others. This echoes Christ's call to 'follow me, and I will make you fishers of men' (Matthew 4:19). We're encouraged to reflect on our own leadership styles and consider how we might more effectively build up those around us, balancing our pursuit of excellence with grace and humility.

Earlier this month Leadership Beyond Borders re-released an episode I did with them a while back, alongside host Kimberli J. Lewis. The conversation centered on how team habits apply in international, remote, and diverse organizations, and to change management. We discussed the need for clear communication as a team habit, with specific channels and protocols, especially on remote and geographically dispersed teams — as well as how to remove bottlenecks and strike a balance between providing enough information and too much detail. Our discussion touched further on the importance of personal connection, trust, and empathy in teams, and how this sense of belonging (another major team habit) ultimately paves the way for high performance. Leadership Beyond Borders looks at the impact constant change is having on our organizations and how these changes affect the kind of leadership we need to drive long-term success in today's global economy. The idea of the podcast is to explore the opportunities and challenges of different kinds of organizations (including remote first) and what kind of leadership skills and values are needed to ensure engagement, retention, and ultimately great performance.Topics We Explored: * Why in order to function within the global business environment, your business needs to constantly change and adapt to a variety of new constants* The power of team habits and dynamics to drive success in today's fast paced business landscape* How to figure out this new way of working with each other,  and putting it all back together when everything's broken. (Much in the way it was for so many organizations during the COVID-19 pandemic.)* Why effective communication, collaboration, and interpersonal team leadership improve work outcomes.If you and/or your team benefit from these posts, consider a paid or pro subscription for even more support in terms of monthly community leadership coaching, access to the planning system, and full archive of content. Episode Timestamps[0:05] Team habits and dynamics for business success. Host Kimberli Lewis discusses globalization, digital transition, and leadership impact with listeners worldwide. Charlie shares insights on team habits for success in a fast-paced business landscape.[4:00] Forging a path in leadership, teams, and productivity consulting. Charlie argues that individuals in organizations are (usually) not the problem, but rather how they come together as a team and create systems that either work or don't work. We all play a part in the construction of our team's habits, for better or for worse, and that's important to acknowledge. He emphasizes high standards and compassion in leadership, and the potential for heroes to emerge in unexpected ways.[11:46] Teamwork, inclusivity, and productivity. Charlie's upbringing and complex childhood experience informs his approach to work communication management. He prioritizes lifting up those with least privilege and power in organizations. [17:09] Creating a baseline of trust and mutual respect. Overview of the eight habits of high-performing teams, including belonging, decision making, and goal setting. Meetings are a key area where team habits play out, and poor habits can lead to poor meeting culture. Belonging is especially crucial in virtual teams. Language of trust and relationship often beats out task-based language.[25:17] Team collaboration and motivation. Understanding individual goals and motivations can help drive team collaboration. Rather than pushing team members towards a goal, it's more effective to help them find their own motivation and support them in achieving it. This requires finding common ground and aligning goals. [35:05] Decision-making habits for teams, including leveling decisions and addressing bottlenecks. Charlie discusses decision-making as a habit in teams, and explains the three levels of decisions. Decision-making habits (and knowing the decision levels) can transform other team habits and increase trust and belonging. Transparency and enrolling team members in decision-making removes bottlenecks and increases productivity.  [40:58] Effective communication in diverse teams. Communication in diverse teams requires specific channels for urgent vs non-urgent messages. Team members ought to commit to using agreed-upon channels to avoid confusion and ensure clarity. Communication often hinges on providing the right amount of detail. Brief explanation of how women and men communicate differently due to socialization and power dynamics.[45:33] Productivity, team habits, and getting buy-in. After analyzing a team's habits a roadmap can be created to improve specific habits. An easy fix on meetings might be leaving five minutes at the end of every call for next actions. Charlie encourages listeners to invite others into the changes they want to make together. This is a public episode.

We had to make a slight adjustment in our planned panel discussion on empowering women for executive roles. Originally, we intended to feature a joint conversation with Beth Hilbing, co-founder of C-Sweet, and Heather H. Bennett, partner at Newport LLC. However, due to unexpected travel delays in Chicago, we've had to adjust our format.  Instead of a single panel discussion, we'll be presenting two separate conversations.   Today, we're excited to share our insightful discussion with Heather H. Bennett.   Stay tuned for Beth's valuable contributions which will be featured in the upcoming weeks.  Heather brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to the discussion of women in leadership roles. And with four children, she certainly knows the landscape of navigating career and personal aspirations and challenges.  Among other things, we talked about the current trends and challenges for today's aspiring female business leaders. A few of the highlights and suggestions from this engaging conversation.  Trends in the overall job market and specifically for women  The importance of supporting employees throughout their career lifecycle  Imposter syndrome as women often feel they must be 110%   The importance of giving yourself grace when things don't go perfectly  Setting boundaries when communicating needs with your team  Prioritizing networking for your current role and future roles   Finding multiple mentors within and outside your organization  A dominant thread that runs throughout this conversation and all of Heather's work:  Self-awareness and human connection are crucial, regardless of your specific career aspirations.  Enjoy the conversation with Heather, and please stay connected!

Before we get started, we had to jump in with some JUNE BIRTHDAYS! Pastor Adam on June 23rd and Pastor Will on June 24th! Aside from our wonderful vocals singing happy birthday, we had a profound discussion, where we explore the challenges of maintaining integrity in leadership and relationships. The conversation delves into the importance of transparency, accountability, and confession in both marriage and spiritual leadership. We're reminded that no one is immune to temptation, and it's crucial to create systems and practices that protect us from moral failings. The biblical principle of 'iron sharpening iron' (Proverbs 27:17) is emphasized, highlighting the need for genuine friendships that challenge and support us in our spiritual journey. This message encourages us to cultivate honesty in our relationships, recognizing that true strength comes from vulnerability and the willingness to confront our weaknesses.

You've heard it said, “Your people are your greatest asset”. (ad infinitum). Well, quiet quitting, the great resignation and other trends make clear, they aren't an asset, you don't own them.   They are your greatest investment and the leaders that learn to better align talent strategies with business objectives will be better poised for long-term sustainability and growth.  We recently had an insightful conversation with three HR experts on our podcast, Dr. Eric D. Hieger, Jackie Kaweck, and Ian Ziskin. We discussed strategies for HR professionals to establish their value and secure a seat at the executive table.   Regardless of your function within an organization it is essential to understand both business strategy and people strategy.  Here are a few key highlights from our conversation:  Develop a deep understanding of business acumen and the organization's value chain to effectively contribute to strategic decisions. Seek opportunities to collaborate with other functions, learn from their challenges, and gain multidisciplinary perspectives.   Advocate for HR initiatives by building a compelling business case and effectively communicating the value proposition to stakeholders.   Elevate expectations for HR capabilities and delivery, positioning HR as strategic partners rather than reactive problem-solvers. Embrace a mindset of continuous learning, joining competitive industries to accelerate growth and push boundaries.  The experts emphasized the importance of HR professionals shedding self-limiting beliefs and embracing a strategic mindset. By demonstrating their ability to drive business success, HR can solidify its role as a critical partner in shaping organizational strategy.  Stay tuned for ongoing conversations with business leaders, during which we'll continue to gain multiple perspectives on relevant issues - personal, interpersonal, and strategic - bringing ideas on how you can cultivate a Leadership Beyond.  We thank our panel for this dynamic conversation sharing their passion, insight, and practical strategies. We are hopeful you will enjoy and benefit from this conversation as much as we have. Together, let's forge a path toward better people, better work, and a brighter tomorrow. A Leadership Beyond is led by Change Management Consultant Adrienne Guerrero and Leadership Communication Strategist Tom Rosenak, and exists to support the alignment between business strategy and people strategy - to drive results with people not at the expense of people (Talent Optimization).  Subscribe to our podcast to join the Leadership Beyond Community of Conversation and hear insights from thought leaders and human development experts leading the way in the field of Talent Optimization.  As always, we'd love to hear from you about your insights, challenges, and successes around leading (self and others) through transitions.
