In this episode, I'm reflecting on a question that's been sitting with me lately: Does any of this really matter? It was sparked by a thoughtful LinkedIn post from Vanessa Forslev, and it's a question many of us ask - especially during times of chaos, uncertainty, or overwhelm. I talk about the very real pull to veer off course - even when the course still aligns with your purpose - and why it's so important to stay grounded in your “why.” I also share powerful lessons from a client organization that's staying the course despite external challenges, including funding cuts and political pressures. Their example is a beautiful reminder of what it looks like to lead with clarity, compassion, and courage. If you've ever felt discouraged, distracted, or tempted to abandon a path that once felt meaningful - this episode is for you. Enjoy!

U ovom videu govorim o jednoj snažnoj istini: uspjeh ostavlja trag (Success Leaves Clues). Što to zapravo znači? Koja je ključna razlika u mindsetu uspješnih i onih koji to još nisu postigli?✅ Uspješni ljudi ne čekaju – oni aktivno traže pomoć, uče, rade s mentorima i profesionalnim coachevima kako bi ubrzali svoj rast.✅ Kao certificirani leadership coach, radim s liderima koji žele više jasnoće, fokusa i utjecaja u svom poslu i životu.U videu dijelim:
Key Takeaways:Eco-Systemic Coaching is Holistic: This approach goes beyond individual development, focusing on how leaders and teams operate within the broader organizational system and its interdependencies.Balancing Ask vs. Tell: Effective leaders blend directive and coaching styles, understanding when to empower through questions and when to provide clear instructions.Presence and Observation are Crucial: A leader's conscious presence and the ability to observe non-verbal cues are vital for fostering trust and ensuring all voices are heard within a team.Coaching Culture Requires Intentionality: Building a coaching culture involves top-down leadership modeling, formal skill development for managers, and the measurement and reward of coaching behaviors.Human Connection Remains Paramount: Despite advancements in AI, the unique human elements of intuition, empathy, and making individuals feel seen and heard are irreplaceable in coaching.#LeadershipCoaching #EcoSystemicLeadership #TeamDevelopment #CoachingSkills #OrganizationalDevelopment #HighPerformingTeams #LeadershipDevelopment #WorkplaceCulture #CoachingCulture #EmployeeEngagement #SoftSkills #FutureOfWork

Gute Führung ist nicht immer angenehm – manchmal tut sie sogar weh. Nicht körperlich, aber emotional. In dieser Folge des LEITWOLF® Podcasts spricht Stefan über eine Seite von Leadership, über die selten gesprochen wird – obwohl viele Führungskräfte sie kennen: Entscheidungen treffen, die wehtun. Klarheit zeigen, wenn andere lieber ausweichen. Stand halten, wenn es unpopulär wird. Du erfährst, warum unangenehme Entscheidungen oft ein Zeichen guter Führung sind, wie Du schwieriges Feedback so gibst, dass es wirklich hilft – und warum es wichtig ist, Dich mit anderen Führungskräften darüber auszutauschen. Führung darf schmerzen – besonders dann, wenn sie Veränderung bedeutet. Doch gerade dann entsteht oft das, was wirklich zählt: Entwicklung, Klarheit und Vertrauen. ––– Nimm gerne an dieser anonymen Umfrage teil, damit wir diesen Podcast für Dich optimieren können: https://forms.gle/WTqCeutVXV2PsjBH9 Gefällt Dir dieser LEITWOLF® Leadership Podcast?

If you've spent time in New York City, or many other cities around the world, you've likely seen monks on street corners or in subways, holding out books and trying to spark conversations. This sacred practice is known as Book Distribution. In this episode, Hari Prasada and Rasanath share what it was like to engage in this practice during their early days in a New York City monastery. They tell stories, some funny, some more serious, and speak about the deeper purpose behind Book Distribution. With honesty and reflection, they reveal how the experience challenged their egos, tested their intentions, and opened them to unexpected moments of grace. Without having to walk the streets of New York book in hand (though we hope one day you will!), they give you a taste of the experience and accompanying lessons.Links Enneagram Certification Program (starts May 17th) Upbuild Coaching Certification Training (starts in October) Upbuild Website Instagram: @upbuildnycFacebook: UpbuildLinkedIn: Upbuild
The Great Leadership Perception Gap: What Leaders Think vs. What Followers Actually Want Ever wonder why so many CEOs are burning out while their teams are checking out? This week's episode of "No More Leadership BS" tackles the uncomfortable truth about leadership perception that's been hiding in plain sight. The No More Leadership BS Gang dive deep into the fascinating disconnect between how leaders see themselves and how their teams actually experience them. While leaders obsess over vision, strategic thinking, and decision-making prowess, their people are desperately craving something entirely different: authenticity, consistency, and genuine human connection. The Leadership Reality Check ->What Leaders Think Matters Most: Vision, strategic thinking, decision-making under pressure, emotional intelligence ->What Followers Actually Crave: Consistency, trust, authentic communication, feeling valued and heard ->The Trust Factor: Why consistency of behavior trumps perfection every single time ->Communication Revolution: Moving from "need to know" to "trust them to know" The Bottom Line The most effective leaders understand this fundamental shift: it's not about what you DO, it's about who you ARE. Your character, how you make people feel, and whether they trust you with their professional lives matters infinitely more than your strategic brilliance. Tune In For: ->The myth-busting truth about why 86% of CEOs report mental health impacts ->Real stories from leaders who got it right (and what made them unforgettable) ->The three leadership courses that need to exist but don't ->Why "doing" your best isn't enough when "being" your best is what counts Ready to bridge the perception gap and become the leader people actually want to follow? Sometimes the most profound leadership insights come from simply asking: "How do I make my people feel?"

In this third episode of the Magic of a Quote series, I unpack one of Walt Disney's most well-known and powerful quotes: “All our dreams can come true if we have the courage to pursue them.” I reflect on Walt's journey, the setbacks he faced, and how his unwavering belief in his vision inspires my own path. More importantly, I explore how this quote translates into real life—what it means to have courage, why it's often the missing ingredient in goal achievement, and how we can all take meaningful action despite fear or uncertainty.

This week, I'm diving into one of my favorite Disney-inspired quotes: “All you need is faith, trust, and a little pixie dust.” While whimsical on the surface, this quote beautifully reflects a grounded framework for powerful leadership. I explore how each ingredient—faith, trust, and pixie dust—aligns with the three keys to Leadership Magic: confidence, connection, and character. Together, they form a roadmap for leading with belief in yourself, building meaningful relationships, and staying anchored in self-awareness. Tune in and discover where you might need a little more faith, how to deepen trust, and why self-awareness truly is your pixie dust. Enjoy!

Each of us is wired with a specific hierarchy of three core instinctual drives, shaping how we move through the world. The Instincts (sometimes referred to as Instinctual Variants) is part of the Enneagram framework and plays a powerful role in how our personalities form. One Instinct tends to dominate and demands most of our attention, a second supports it, while a third gets neglected and becomes a blind spot. In this episode, Michael, Hari, and Rasanath unpack the three Instincts—Sexual, Social, and Self-Preservation—and how they show up in our daily lives. They explore the energy behind each, how these Instincts function at their healthiest, and how they can create suffering. By understanding your “Instinctual Stack,” you can begin to shift from automatic patterns to conscious integration, creating space for real growth and movement toward the best version of yourself.Links Enneagram Certification Program (starts May 17th) Upbuild Coaching Certification Training (starts in October) Upbuild Website Instagram: @upbuildnycFacebook: UpbuildLinkedIn: Upbuild
In this episode, I share a powerful self-awareness moment that unfolded during my son's first high school football camp. What began as empathy quickly revealed itself as something else—projected anxiety, assumptions, and imposter syndrome I was unknowingly carrying on his behalf. I explore the difference between empathy, being an empath, and projected empathy—and how this subtle but impactful emotional projection shows up in leadership. You'll hear real-life leadership examples, what to do when you recognize this in yourself, and why showing up with trust instead of assumption changes everything. Enjoy!

Making room for different processing styles in communication. Emotional intelligence as responding vs. reacting. Next Steps Ask your team how they like to receive info. Do they need visuals?

Let us know!The CopDoc Podcast - Season 8 - Episode 153What happens when a basketball coach becomes a police chief? Chief John Fisher of the Bedford, Massachusetts, Police Department brings a refreshingly human perspective to law enforcement leadership, replacing command-and-control with connection and coaching.Fisher's journey from U.S. Coast Guard service through the ranks of Nashua, NH Police Department to his current role reveals a leadership style fundamentally shaped by his parallel career coaching high school basketball for over 30 seasons. "Coaching happens in split seconds," he explains, "but you still have to fall back on a coaching mentality. Same way we do in law enforcement."At the heart of Fisher's approach is what he calls "the coaching sandwich" – opening with value recognition, suggesting improvement, and closing with encouragement. This technique acknowledges the reality that most police interactions involve people experiencing "their worst possible moment," requiring officers skilled in human connection more than tactical proficiency. When taking command of new departments, Fisher began by listening rather than dictating, meeting individually with officers to understand their perspectives before implementing change.Fisher challenges traditional notions of police authority, recognizing that today's departments include officers spanning from their 20s to 60s, each generation requiring different leadership approaches. His philosophy emphasizes critical thinking through questions rather than commands, preparing teams for crisis through "what if" scenarios, and building community connections that transcend enforcement.Whether you're in law enforcement, leadership, or simply interested in organizational culture, Fisher's insights offer valuable lessons on mentoring the next generation, navigating institutional change, and maintaining optimism while facing challenging realities. Ready to rethink what effective leadership looks like? Listen now and discover why Fisher believes "I am more optimistic now than I ever have been in my career."Contact us: copdoc.podcast@gmail.com Website: www.copdocpodcast.comIf you'd like to arrange for facilitated training, or consulting, or talk about steps you might take to improve your leadership and help in your quest for promotion, contact Steve at stephen.morreale@gmail.com
Confidence is one of the most essential - and misunderstood - keys to leadership magic. In this second episode of the Three Keys to Leadership Magic series, we explore what confidence truly is, what gets in the way of it, and how to build it from the inside out. You'll hear personal stories, practical strategies, and mindset shifts that help cultivate what I call grounded confidence - the kind that allows you to take risks, face feedback, and lead with authenticity even when you're unsure or uncomfortable. Whether you struggle with imposter syndrome, people-pleasing, or self-doubt, this episode will help you understand how to override limiting beliefs and start showing up with boldness and trust in yourself. Because when you lead from belief—not proof—you create real impact. Enjoy! Angie Robinson Links + Ways to Connect: Leading Through Uncertainty Mini-Coaching Package (limited time!)

Many of us pride ourselves on our ability to compartmentalize. We like to keep our personal and professional lives separate, push aside difficult emotions, and stay productive in the face of whatever comes our way. But what if this “skill” we value so highly is quietly cutting us off from our own hearts? In this episode, Hari Prasada, Rasanath, and Vipin examine why compartmentalization seems helpful but ultimately prevents us from being our best self. They distinguish between presence and suppression, explore how disconnection from the heart affects our relationships, and discuss what it takes to return to the emotions we've long set aside.Links Enneagram Certification Program (starts May 17th) Upbuild Coaching Certification Training (starts in October) Upbuild Website Instagram: @upbuildnycFacebook: UpbuildLinkedIn: Upbuild
How does someone rise from stacking pallets in a Pepsi warehouse to leading a billion-dollar brand? In this episode, I sit down with Scott Miller, former Essentia Water CEO and author of Summit Mindset, to unpack the philosophy that turns relentless ambition into meaningful success. Scott brings his book's principles to life as he shares the four pillars that ground him Faith, Family, Business, and Others, proving that sustainable achievement begins when people come before profit. He walks us through his Failure → Reflection → Persistence cycle, the daily rituals that fuel high performance, and the game-changing question he asks his team every week: "What did we suck at this time?" because real growth starts with honest reflection. The conversation turns deeply personal as Scott revisits a heart-to-heart with his father on his deathbed, a moment that still shapes his leadership today. At the core of it all? The idea of a North Star, a guiding light that cuts through the noise when data and pressure cloud judgment. Scott challenges us to define ours, lean on our own pillars, and keep climbing, especially when the summit feels out of reach. We wrap up with practical ways to build cultures where vulnerability fuels strength, ambition goes hand in hand with kindness, and true leadership starts within. If you're ready to rise without leaving your values behind press play and let Summit Mindset show you the way.
