Leadership at Indianapolis Animal Care Services is unknown after the City-County Council stopped a proposal to appoint Kelly Diamond to head the troubled agency. As anti-DEI legislation makes its way through the statehouse, one Indiana college student created a petition to fight back. Governor Mike Braun signed an executive order Monday to expand paid parental leave for state-employed Hoosiers. Lawmakers filed several bills to further restrict abortion access and strengthen reporting requirements in Indiana — which already has a near-total abortion ban.

"Now, when you consistently micromanage, miscommunicate, or misalign roles, you not only create inefficiencies, but you also damage trust and morale on your team."   If your team isn't meeting expectations, the problem isn't them—it's you. Leadership gaps are one of the biggest reasons why businesses stall before reaching seven figures.

"People don't leave jobs, they leave bad leaders. Be the leader they want to follow." "A business that can't run without you isn't a business—it's a job you created for yourself." "Micromanagement kills momentum. The more you control, the less your team thrives." "Your team is a reflection of your leadership. If they're not delivering, it's time to look in the mirror."   Questions to Ask Yourself While Listening: Am I delegating effectively, or am I still trying to control too much? Does my team know exactly what's expected of them—and how their role contributes to the company's success? Do I avoid difficult conversations with underperforming team members? Am I making decisions based on what's best for my business long-term, or what's easiest in the moment? What would change if I fully stepped into my CEO role and let my team do their jobs?

This MTM Minute is powered by Move to Millions Live 2025   The MTM Minute is a quick dose of inspiration with a powerful affirmation based on our weekly full-length episode.  And beginning this season, the MTM Minute will include a prayer of the week for 7 figure CEOs and 7 figure CEOs in the making.  That's right, you don't have to choose – you can love God AND make millions. In this week's full length episode of the Move to Millions Podcast, The Leadership Gap, Dr. Darnyelle delves into the importance of closing the leadership gap to grow your business to seven figures. She emphasizes the need for CEOs to delegate effectively, move away from micromanagement, and lead with clarity, vision, and purpose. Dr. Darnyelle shares powerful insights on empowering your team, trusting your leadership abilities, and creating an environment where team members feel valued and safe. By focusing on leadership development and learning to delegate authority, CEOs can move beyond six-figure limitations and scale to seven figures with grace. This episode provides actionable tips to improve team performance, avoid burnout, and foster a culture of accountability. Leaders who develop their skills will attract more success and grow their businesses exponentially.   This week's 7 Figure CEO Affirmation is "I am closing my leadership gap by stepping into my full potential as a leader, empowering my team and trusting their abilities. I lead with clarity, vision, and purpose, knowing that as I grow, my team and business grow with me. I release the need to micromanage, and instead, I create an environment where my team feels safe, valued, and inspired. I trust in their strengths, delegate effectively, and watch my business thrive as we move to seven figures and beyond."   Here are three actionable tips to anchor in this week's affirmation Delegate with Trust: Start by delegating one key task that you have been holding on to. Trust your team member to handle it and provide feedback, not micromanagement. Allow them the space to perform, even if it's not done exactly how you would do it. Hold Clear Team Meetings: Ensure your team understands their role in the broader vision of your business. Hold a meeting to communicate the company's goals, values, and vision for the next 90 days. Make sure everyone knows how their work contributes to the overall success. Invest in Leadership Development: Commit to improving your leadership skills. Read books, attend workshops, and work with a coach who can help you develop better ways to manage and support your team. As you grow as a leader, your business will naturally thrive. Affirm with me: "I am closing my leadership gap by stepping into my full potential as a leader, empowering my team and trusting their abilities. I lead with clarity, vision, and purpose, knowing that as I grow, my team and business grow with me. I release the need to micromanage, and instead, I create an environment where my team feels safe, valued, and inspired. I trust in their strengths, delegate effectively, and watch my business thrive as we move to seven figures and beyond." And This Week's Journal Prompts Are: "As a leader, I want to empower my team by delegating... and trusting them with..." "The leadership gap I most need to address in my business is... and I can begin closing it by..." "To improve my leadership, I will focus on... and take one step today to create more trust and clarity with my team." And Your Prayer of the Week: Heavenly Father, We thank You for the opportunity to grow as leaders in our businesses. Help us to lead with clarity, confidence, and grace. We ask that You guide our actions and decisions, empowering us to delegate with trust and create an environment where our teams feel valued and supported. Lord, we recognize that leadership is a skill we can develop, and we pray for the wisdom and strength to close the leadership gap in our businesses. May we lead with purpose, serve with integrity, and trust that as we grow, our businesses will grow with us. In Your name, we pray. Amen.

The Leadership Gap: Why Your Team Isn't the Problem—You Are "People don't leave jobs, they leave bad leaders." If your team isn't performing at the level you need to scale, the problem might not be them—it might be you. The leadership gap is one of the biggest reasons businesses get stuck at six figures instead of soaring past seven. You can have the best strategy, the best product, and the best vision, but if you don't know how to lead, delegate, and empower your team, you'll find yourself micromanaging, overworked, and frustrated. Worse, you'll experience high turnover, missed opportunities, and CEO burnout. In this episode, I'm diving into the real reason your business isn't scaling—the leadership gaps you may not even realize you have. I'll show you how to shift from doing everything to leading your team with confidence, clarity, and trust so that your business runs like a well-oiled machine—with or without you. If you're ready to close the leadership gap, step into your CEO role fully, and finally scale with grace and ease, hit play now. If you are ready to close your own leadership gap regardless of the size of your team, grab your Move to Millions Podcast Notebook, a pen and your favorite beverage and listen in to discover: ✔ The Leadership Trap Keeping You Stuck – Why doing everything yourself is slowing down your growth—and how to step into true CEO leadership. ✔ Why Your Team Doesn't Perform the Way You Want – The hidden leadership gaps causing team disengagement, missed deadlines, and lack of accountability. ✔ The Fastest Way to Build a High-Performing Team – How to develop, communicate, and empower your team so they take ownership, deliver results, and free you to focus on scaling. ✔And so much more This episode is for every entrepreneur who's tired of feeling stalled, overwhelmed, and overworked. If you're serious about growing a team that helps you scale instead of holding you back, this is your next move. Press play and let's close the leadership gap for good! Feeling inspired?

Anna Morgan is a teacher, creative, adjudicator and researcher. She directs her own teacher training program, Anna Morgan Dance, and has taught for institutions such as the Royal Ballet School, Performers College, and Bird College. She is currently studying for her Masters at Rambert School, with gender equity in Ballet as her research specialism.In this conversation, we dive into Anna's groundbreaking research on gender inequity in ballet leadership, highlighting systemic issues that hinder women and non-binary individuals from rising to leadership roles despite ballet being a female-dominated industry. We discuss how long-standing traditions and societal biases have shaped these imbalances, often starting with how dancers are trained.Anna also highlights the historical and cultural shifts that have influenced ballet's gender dynamics and challenges the assumption that tradition should limit progress. While honoring ballet's rich history, she makes a compelling case for rethinking certain practices to create a more inclusive and equitable future for dancers and leaders alike.This episode really got me thinking - I am confident you'll walk away with a deeper understanding of the barriers to leadership in ballet and a thought-provoking perspective on what the future of the art form could look like.Key Moments: Anna's early dance training [1:32] How Anna crafted a portfolio career and her advice for dancers who want to follow a less traditional path [2:12] The statistics on gender inequity in the ballet industry [4:11] What is causing the gender inequity in ballet leadership [6:07] Anna's solution to addressing gender inequity by adjusting the way we educate ballet dancers from a young age [12:44] The reactions Anna has received from her research [20:04] The glass ceiling/escalator theory and how they come into play in the ballet industry [35:57] The history of gender in ballet [40:33] Her biggest piece of advice for dancers pursuing a career [43:39]Connect with Anna:INSTAGRAM: instagram.com/annamorgandanceWEBSITE: www.annamorgandance.comLinks and Resources:Set up ticketing for your next event with DRT (Make sure to mention that The Brainy Ballerina sent you!)Get your copy of The Intentional Career Handbook1-1 Career Mentoring: book your complimentary career callLet's connect!My WEBSITE: thebrainyballerina.comINSTAGRAM: instagram.com/thebrainyballerinaQuestions/comments?

This is a turning point for so many business owners and a challenge that we keep seeing time and time again.   Leadership isn't just about setting targets - it's about rolling up your sleeves and getting in the trenches with your team, inspiring and guiding them in a way that makes everyone feel seen and valued because this is where real growth happens for them, for you and your business.   Today, my husband Adrian Addamo is back on the podcast and in this episode, I wanted to talk with Adrian about the challenges that he's currently seeing in business, and how we can all improve in those areas.   We also chat about leading a team with clarity and intention, finding the right people to hire, building a culture of enthusiasm, facing hard truths about toxic behaviours in the workplace and keeping motivation alive.   Adrian's got a unique take on what leadership really means, thanks to his 20+ years in the automotive world to pivoting into the world of coaching, while blending mindset, mindfulness, nutrition and fitness into his approach. And as an ultra-athlete, he knows how to push limits - something every leader and business owner can relate to when it comes to resilience and grit.   Adrian's focus is to connect your team with their potential and align their goals with your vision to build better businesses. It's time to close the leadership gap!   ___   Where to find Adrian Addamo Connect on Instagram Check out his website - Join the men's retreat waitlist!   ___   Other episodes I think you'll love!

The number one reason people leave a job is because of their direct manager. The resulting negative cost of losing a good employee can range from $200-250k each. Senior executives know their leaders lack leadership competency, but also know and admit that their organization isn't investing in solving this enormous problem. Pat D'Amico is going to share his decades of training and experience with us as we take a dive into this topic on business that often times gets ignored.     Working in Fortune 500 companies including Johnson & Johnson and Medtronic, as well as start-ups, Pat D'Amico roles have included sales, sales management, commercial operations, recruiting, marketing and training.

His cross-functional and cross-business experience have given him a knowledge and perspective on the multiple factors that can impact commercial success. Throughout his career, Pat's passions for the study of leadership, driving organizational success, and teaching, along with his belief in being a lifelong learner, have continually led him back to roles in learning & development and training.

In this episode of the Thoughtful Entrepreneur, your host Josh Elledge speaks with the CEO & President of Doug Thorpe Group, Doug Thorpe. In today's world, employees want to be recognized as more than just a number on a payroll. The pandemic has accelerated this mindset shift, and leaders need to embrace this change and recalibrate their thinking to have open dialogues with their teams.   Doug has worked with large corporate and entrepreneurial clients and noticed a trend where employees want to be recognized as whole human beings. He believes recognizing employees as individuals with unique needs and desires is crucial for creating a positive workplace culture. As a business therapist, Doug emphasizes the importance of coaching to improve leadership capacity and abilities. He believes changing behavior takes time and effort and prefers longer engagements to help clients achieve their goals. His website, dougthorpe.com, offers much information, and he invites visitors to join him for a 30-minute discovery call. During the podcast, Doug also discussed his new book, "The Exit Strategy Handbook," which focuses on helping business owners plan for their exit from their businesses. He emphasizes the importance of beginning with the end in mind and engineering decisions accordingly.  One of the biggest challenges for business owners is figuring out how to make the business run without them being there. Doug recommends delegating, automating, or outsourcing repetitive tasks and developing a solid team with problem-solving skills. Doug's book is especially relevant now, as data suggests that up to 80 million baby boomers are getting ready to exit businesses they've built over the last few decades. It is essential to plan for the future and consider the nine different scenarios of what an exit could be about to maximize the outcome of that transaction. About Doug Thorpe:  Doug is a seasoned executive coach and business advisor with over 20 years of experience. His expertise lies in assisting small business owners to scale their businesses and develop leadership skills. A former US Army Captain and Senior VP in the banking industry, Thorpe's diverse background also includes founding five successful businesses.  Known for his podcast 'Leading Powered by Common Sense,' he interviews and learns from renowned leaders worldwide. Over his career, he has provided more than 19,000 hours of leadership coaching, including engagements with major oil companies and global brands, significantly enhancing their market value. About Doug Thorpe Group:

As healthcare continues to move through a challenging transition, Ronnie Kinsey explains to Jim Cagliostro how he works with healthcare leaders to surpass their greatest goals and resolve leadership gaps.     Episode Introduction  Ronnie highlights the importance of exposing clinicians to the business side of healthcare, how ‘'one to one to one up'' leadership can lead to multiple gaps of ‘'abyss potential'', and why people must prioritize behavior and check things at the door. He also explains why all leaders should consider an outside resource for support, why coaching is not therapy, and how attitude is key to successfully nurturing leaders.      Show Topics   Healthcare has to incorporate the business side  The challenge of one to one to one up leadership Promotion can result in leadership gaps  Behavioral procedures take priority in healthcare The impact of culture in filling gaps  Developing leaders comes down to personality and attitude Frontline employees can resolve hospital painpoints 04:19 Healthcare has to incorporate the business side  Ronnie said that clinicians must be prepared for the business side of healthcare at an earlier stage.  ‘'There are so many people who got into healthcare with the idea of delivering care. They wanted care. But then you and I have had conversations. You're doing the business side of healthcare now as well. There is the whole business side of healthcare, which cannot be ignored. I think that clinicians schools could probably potentially do a better job of preparing clinicians for the business side of healthcare. Because …..if the bills aren't paid and if there's not access to plan for growing for the future, we've got a problem. So that's got to be there, but I think that it has to be really ingrained into the clinician earlier on. That would be one of my big asks for the new educational shift is that clinicians just be much more attuned to the business side of healthcare. Definitely don't lose the caring side, but be aware of the business side.''   07:30 The challenge of one to one to one up leadership  Ronnie explained gaps happen when people leave as most hospitals only have one leader on the frontlines.  ‘'You on average have one leader per category of management. So the front lines, whatever, until you get up to the C-suite and it's divided other ways. So say you have one leader that you report to, then that's at one level and that leader reports up to another leader at another level. So it's generally a one to one to one up. Well, what if that chain breaks and one of those ones goes out? There's a break. There's no extra time to fill in for that missing person per se. And again, remember we just said it takes about four months to replace them. Well, how to bring the next person up to speed, how to even try to get them close to knowing the personalities that play on that particular whatever we want to call it, the ward, the unit, the floor, the department, service line, you can name that. So look already where the gap comes in. So then from the front line, some people are wondering, "Well, who do I go to?" Okay. We can give them names, we can give them a title and that's fine. That person doesn't have extra time for you. They already have their financial responsibilities because they're in leadership…. So now are they short of resource? Where do they go? There tends to not be just so many extra hands sitting around waiting to help out because systems are really under constraints overall, especially after COVID, right? We're under a whole new redefinition of the healthcare system. It's been coming, I'll say it's for sure been coming since EHR. Well, it became no exception after COVID. … I can make that example at every level, all the way up.''    10:12 Promotion can lead to healthcare leadership gaps  Ronnie explained why promotion can result in a cycle of resentment and resistance if clinicians aren't prepared.  ‘'And again, leaders aren't necessarily born, but leaders can be developed. So then their lies the gap. There lies the gap. So often it happens in healthcare, somebody did so well in the clinical side, they're going to get promoted. Well, guess what? They like the idea, sounds good. They want to grow. They'd like to do something new and at another level. But boom, what if they're not prepared for the business side? What if now they're not prepared to hold somebody accountable. A, they didn't show up on time. B, didn't say the right thing. C, didn't have the right thing and you know where that goes? Then there's the accountability and the disciplining that takes place. Well, then you have resentment. Then you have resistance. Are you following me on the gap yet? Do you see where this turns into a huge cycle? And then at the same time, you need to be delivering care and healthcare efficiently, appropriately, timely and properly all the rights. Right person, right time, right thing, right place, right outcome, right? Applying all of those things, but your time factor doesn't increase. People don't have extra time to work on these things.''   14:28 Behavioral procedures take priority in healthcare Ronnie said people have to check certain things at the door, set expectations and hold others accountable in the working environment.  ‘'I'm going to share with you part of why I'm a coach now. I hired my first executive coach when I was working with a large pharmaceutical company to give a presentation overseas to our sales team and it had to do with behavior. And the executive coach says, "You can have your thoughts. You're entitled to your thoughts. You should have your thoughts, you're a human being. On the job, in this role, these are the behaviors that we'd like to pay you to perform." Boom. Cleared the sky like I'd never seen before. When I heard him say it the way he said it, he said, "You're entitled to your thoughts. You should have your thoughts. You're very welcome to have your thoughts, but on the job, please follow these behavioral procedures that we're asking you to follow."… The new phraseology seems to be like, "Bring your whole self to work." Well, you are anyway. And we are human, we have needs, we have issues. There's a time and there's a place for certain things you may or may not agree. And as adults, as professionals, as mature people, we do learn to check certain things at the door while we perform other things. It's just kind of understood. You'll be able to do that if you are a well trained, good intending, well hired professional. ….We have to set expectations and we have to hold people accountable. We know this is not ideal. We know that it'd be easier to be at the beach with ice cream right now or something like that. But we're now at work and we're doing this and we plan to do this throughout the next eight hours or the next 10 hours, 12 hours for the next three months, for the next three years, whatever it is, are you the right one to carry this behavior out with us during this time?''   20:53 The impact of culture in filling gaps Ronnie explained why bringing in people short-term can create more gaps down the line.  ‘'It's going to take six months to a year before trust develops really, really developed. Because every place of work has the stuff that people do not want to publish and talk about immediately. Every place, anytime you put two people together you have a culture. And we know that culture is important in every place and cultures are unique. Not to say that one is so one off like none in every other place, but every place will never have exactly the same personalities, exactly the same dynamic, exactly the same location, et cetera. So if you're bringing someone, say, who's temporary. Okay, you're here for three months. They have already checked your due date at the door. Okay, welcome. You're here in June, so see you later in September. You're three months. So they've kind of like got that circle around you we're just going to be nice for three months, sometimes. People can work well together. But also for the people who are staying, that's not their long-term solution. There lies another gap. Who's going to be here in October for them? Whether it's an option that that person could get hired on long-term or not, you're still in test phase. People may be withholding what are the real issues? Because what's going to get done about them anyway? And then some people worry, did I say too much? Did I reveal too much about what's really going on? Is it going to look bad on me? Because remember, it's easy to shoot the messenger.''   25:20 Developing leaders comes down to personality and attitude  Ronnie said that the right attitude is essential in leadership, but not everyone can be coached.  ‘'So if we took two terms to work with, let's talk about, okay, there's personality. That's one thing. And then there's attitude. I want to go with attitude. I want to put weight on attitude. The right attitude can take you very far. So then there's kind of the innate attitude. Some people just have that bright shining sun in the sky attitude and they can weather the storm, what have you. Some just truly have that. Some can be shown to look at the sun rather than the mud. Okay. I like that. I heard a quote recently. "Two prisoners looked out from the prison bars, one saw this mud, the other saw the stars." What's your takeaway from that? Exactly. Yeah. You get to choose what you see. One saw a dirty, dismal, hopeless situation and the other one saw hope and aspiration. So attitude can be nurtured and developed, but it helped a whole bunch. If you already bring it, if you already bring it, the nurture curve is shorter. And by the way, as coaching goes, not everyone can be coached. Not everyone is willing to be coached. It's a possibility. It's not a guarantee.''   32:18 Frontline employees can resolve hospital painpoints  Ronnie said that frontline employees can offer viable solutions for the C-suite.  ‘'How can you be the solution? What solution can you bring or suggest? Okay, let's go back to the pay grade conversation. This is one thing I want to take down to the lowest level. I think that companies who could ingrain into their people, I don't know if it could be an incentivized thing, can you look for the solution? Can you bring... So you've got a pain point, you've got a block, you've got a cog in the wheel. What in your view, what is the solution to bring that out? Because no one's going to know the pain better than you if you're in it. If you ask me if I'm up in the C-suite, there's no way,I would have to go and do some research. I would have to bring a meeting together to really understand what it is they're going through down there. Were you at the front line, pass the pain points up, but not looking like a complaint. What are one to two viable solutions that you see for your pain point? Bring that. Try to think of a solution-based approach. I hear your pain. Thank you for bringing that up. What do you think the solution is?''   Connect with Lisa Miller on LinkedIn Connect with Jim Cagliostro on LinkedIn Connect with Ronnie Kinsey on LinkedIn   Check out VIE Healthcare and SpendMend    You'll also hear:    The impact of EHR on burnout in healthcare. ‘ I was involved in transitioning from pen and paper to the computer and I saw huge resistance from the clinicians involved and the leaders involved….The idea of burnout has been around for quite some time, but I began to see it really unravel when we started launching EHR.''   How multiple gaps can lead to ‘'abyss potential.'' ‘'… maybe you need to take off. Now, I'll circle back, there lies the gap again. I'm not saying wrong. I'm just saying this goes back to the gap. You need to be out. We got that. If you have the flu, please be out. Now our schedule will be a bit disrupted. So there goes back to a gap. A potential gap. And if not noticed and managed effectively and timely, you're going to have a mess.''   Why it's vital to consider an outside resource for support – and why coaching is not therapy. ‘'I want everyone who might be listening to know that you should never have second doubts about getting any help that you might think you need or want for your mental fitness. Coaching is not mental therapy. … You can get mental toughness from a coach, but it's not therapy. There may be therapists who do some coaching per se, but generally coaching is not therapy.

Investing in women and women-led companies is not only the right thing to do, it's also good for business. Yet, women and women of color in particular continue to face disadvantages in the workplace. In 2021, only 2% of venture capital went to companies founded only by women and 15.6% to those with at least one woman on their founding teams. Women are also 30% less likely to be considered for a job position than men. Tiffany Chan is the founder of Mogul, one of the world's leading diversity recruitment companies. Sarah Chen is the co-founder at Beyond the Billion, a global consortium of investors that have pledged to invest over 1 billion towards women-founded companies. In this episode, we examine the ways in which women and women-led companies face disadvantages in the workplace and hear from women working to change that.
