  Have you ever asked yourself? Do I give my children room to make decisions and mistakes, or do I try to control outcomes too tightly? How often am I sitting down with my kids and really listening to their perspective instead of just telling them what to do? Am I open about my struggles as a parent and willing to admit when I don't have all the answers? Navigating the relationship between father and son is never straightforward, especially as your child grows into a young adult. On this episode of The Dad Edge Podcast, Larry Hagner welcomes his son Ethan for a candid discussion about the so-called "friendship gap"—that elusive space between being too much of a friend and not enough of a parent. Larry and Ethan get real about their own family dynamics, sharing personal stories of where things clicked—and where they missed the mark. From lecture-based parenting in elementary school to establishing new routines as Ethan enters adulthood, they explore the effects of too much leniency or authority, and the importance of clear communication, shared expectations, and accountability. Whether you're raising toddlers or about to launch your kids into the world, this episode is packed with relatable, actionable insights on fostering a deeper father-child bond—while still preparing your kids for the real world. Stick around for honest reflections, a few laughs, and tips that will help any dad walk the fine line between being a guide, a leader… and a friend. Become the best husband you can: https://bit.ly/deamarriageyoutube In this vital conversation, we dig into: Balance Structure and Connection: Avoid leaning too hard into “just being friends” or being purely authoritarian. Kids crave both boundaries and genuine connection. Use Storytelling and Curiosity: When tough conversations arise, share your personal stories and ask thoughtful questions to guide your child's own critical thinking—instead of falling into lecture mode. Create a Supportive Environment: Physical order (like a clean room or set routines) supports mental clarity and well-being; maintain structure even during transitions to help kids thrive. This episode is packed with relatable, actionable insights on fostering a deeper father-child bond—while still preparing your kids for the real world. Here's what research and observation highlight about family emotional connection: children who reported having both warmth and structure from their fathers had a 30% higher chance of reporting positive life satisfaction and emotional regulation in adulthood compared to those who experienced only discipline or only friendship. Studies show that 67% of adolescents report they “completely tune out” or “stop listening” during long lectures from parents, favoring concise, two-way conversations instead. Studies show that 70% of young adults feel unprepared for the practical aspects of adulthood, while 59% of parents report feeling “uncertain” about how to best guide their children through these years 1stphorm.com/dadedge thedadedge.com/alliance  https://www.instagram.com/reel/DKmhchXA95H/?igsh=bHcybXFlNHFwYmhl

I saw a recent post, again from a former student of mine, that opened up my eyes to catch the lessons that they are sharing. Kiara shared how she needs to keep being a bit nicer to herself as she looks back a bit to see that she has accomplished quite a lot over the last couple of years. That her goals keep evolving, as she does too. This is a lesson that I needed to see, when I needed it and her post helped with it.  The quote that came with her thoughts was this: “I'm not everything I want to be yet, but I'm a lot of things I wanted to be 2 years ago, and what a wonderful thing it is to realize that.”  Yep… I needed to realize this too!   Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.

Summary In this episode, Dennis and Mark Perna discuss the essential professional skills needed to thrive in an AI-driven workplace. They explore the importance of communication, teamwork, leadership, problem-solving, and other skills that will set individuals apart in the evolving job market. Mark emphasizes that while AI is a powerful tool, it cannot replace the human touch and the unique skills that people bring to the table. The conversation highlights the need for continuous development of these skills to stay relevant and effective in the workplace. Takeaways AI is a tool that enhances human capabilities, not a replacement. Communication skills are paramount in the workplace. Teamwork is essential, especially in remote settings. Verbal and written communication must be clear and effective. Organizational skills help manage personal and professional tasks. Interpersonal skills foster connections and engagement. Computer literacy is crucial for leveraging technology effectively. Leadership is about inspiring and guiding others, not just authority. Problem-solving skills are highly sought after by employers. Attention to detail can prevent costly mistakes and ensure success. 10 Professional Skills You Need To Stay Ahead Of The AI Curve 1. Communication Skills No surprises here. Communication seems to top every list of soft skills ever compiled. The ability to communicate clearly prevents costly misunderstandings and mistakes, reducing frustration and burnout on teams. Clear communication not only allows you to convey your ideas and needs effectively, but also helps you listen actively to what others are saying. It's little wonder that this skill is in such high demand across all industries. 2. Effective Teamwork Whether you work in person or remotely, the quality of the team you're on can make or break your experience. Strong teams are simply more effective than those distracted by infighting or simply disengaged. That's why being able to work well with others is a skill that will elevate you above other candidates. The good news is, you can practice being a strong team member even if others on your team aren't by taking initiative. 3. Verbal Communication It's interesting that among the top four soft skills Pearson uncovered, three have to do with communication. Verbal communication is growing in value while return-to-office mandates increase, bringing employees into face-to-face contact perhaps more than any other time in the last five years. Being able to communicate effectively in person isn't just about how well you speak. It's also how well you make eye contact, listen to others and express interest in their point of view. 4. Written Communication AI can write everything for us these days, right? No. It is my belief that no matter how good AI gets, there will always be a premium placed on words written solely via human agency. Even if we do use AI-generated content as a starting point, it can only produce what we tell it to. Organizing ideas, composing a compelling argument and putting the final touches on a written work are human-level skills we all still need. Being able to compose and communicate your thoughts effectively will never become obsolete. 5. Organizational Skills We live distracted lives and many of us toggle between personal and professional tasks many times a day, or often, many times an hour. Executive function, or those cognitive skills which help us organize our lives by managing tasks, planning ahead and problem solving, is key to staying on top of everything we have to get done. Organized individuals have good executive function and can adapt to and prioritize the needs of the moment. 6. Interpersonal Skills I frame interpersonal skills as the ability to create and sustain human connection. To connect with someone is to make them feel seen, heard and valued. No matter how brief or sustained their interaction with you, it means you make others feel their thoughts and feelings matter to you. Strong interpersonal skills encourage increased motivation, engagement and a positive attitude about whatever you need to accomplish together. Simple ways to connect with others more effectively with those in your sphere is to practice eye contact, active listening and validation of what they're saying. It doesn't mean you have to agree with it, but let them know their perspective is worth hearing. 7. Computer Literacy Is this tech skill really a professional skill? I believe so, because what's the purpose of using a computer? Somewhere, somehow, everything we do online ultimately affects others. Computers exist to help humans. Your ability to navigate the digital world with ease allows you to be a better team member because you can focus on the work and people at hand, rather than the mechanics of using the technology. 8. Leadership Skills Leadership is not about the title you hold. Anyone who influences others in a positive direction is a leader. We need more people like this. While only 6% of Gen Z workers aspire to senior leadership roles within their organization, that will not prevent them from exercising the core skills of great leaders: vision, purpose, negotiation, empathy, teamwork, communication and more. In a way, all professional skills are on display in great leadership. It's the skill that requires all the rest in order to be effective. 9. Problem Solving Before I hire someone, one of the most important skills I look at is their ability to solve problems. Every day presents a new set of challenges to overcome and employers need people who can tackle these problems without a lot of handholding. Though critical thinking is a vital component to good problem solving, I find that it's more about the attitude people bring to problems than their actual abilities to solve them. A smart, tech-y person who nevertheless displays a give-up attitude in the face of challenges is not a problem solver. We should all strive to meet problems head-on and work proactively on a solution before leaning too heavily on those around us to solve it. 10. Attention To Detail I'm thrilled this skill made the top 10 because it's one that I prize in every member of my own team, and I don't think it gets enough attention. Attention to detail is what sets the great apart from the good. People who are motivated to pursue perfection in the small things are the ones who produce the best work. Details matter and can make all the difference in the final result. That said, I'm not advocating for perfectionism, but I will advocate all day for caring enough about the outcome to get the details right. People who care at that level about the work they produce are in high demand.

For most leaders, workplace conflict is something you should avoid at all costs. While this might sound good in principle, the reality is this mindset limits your team's ability to reach its full potential. In this Leadership Espresso Shot, I share a framework of four proven measures that will allow you to create a workplace environment where your employees can effectively transform conflict from emotionally driven disagreements into productive, team-building breakthroughs. After all, when done right, conflicts don't tear teams apart, but makes them stronger and better equipped to face what's next. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Today, we move into the fifth episode of a series on quotes that coaches should NOT use in their own personal development or with their teams. Today we cover some quotes that deal with conditioning and punishment elements of your practices. In the last couple of episodes, I talked about quotes that were dominated by the pronouns "I," "me," or "my." You will hear that in one of the quotes today, but these are focused more on the punishment that we coaches dish out and what we often say when doing that. I also spend a good portion of today's episode talking about a concept that I learned from Coach Bruce Brown of Proactive Coaching called "Positive Conditioning." If you have never heard of it or done it, it will rock your world. (Although I don't go into too much detail on it in today's episode. If you're interested in hearing more about Positive Conditioning, reach out to me at scott@slamdunksuccess.com, and I will connect with you about it.)Speaking of my email address, I am still wanting you to send in a statement or two that you have heard or used that you know we should not be using as coaches! Please email me with them at scott@slamdunksuccess.com. The more we can get out there for coaches to be aware of, the better off we will all be.For more information to help you on your road to becoming your best, check us out at SlamDunkSuccess.com or email me at scott@slamdunksuccess.com.As always, our background music is "Dance in the Sun" by Krisztian Vass.

Three-time Olympic gold medalist Carrie Bates isn't just celebrating over a decade of sobriety—she's revolutionizing how workplaces approach addiction recovery. As Director of Strategic Growth and Advocacy at Caron Treatment Centers, Carrie brings a powerful dual perspective to the conversation on substance dependence in professional environments.Over 26 million Americans report struggling with addiction, with countless others suffering silently. Furthermore, 80% of people who abuse substances are employed. Yet stigma and fear of career consequences keep many from seeking help through their HR departments or employee assistance programs. This silence allows addiction to progress unchecked, affecting productivity, attendance, and overall culture.Caron Treatment Centers stands out in the recovery landscape through its focus on brain health and neuro-restorative care. Using advanced technology like PET scans, they examine blood flow and neural activity, often discovering that patients have been misdiagnosed with conditions like ADHD or bipolar disorder. This neurological approach treats addiction as a medical condition rather than a moral failing—a crucial distinction for workplace policies.In this discussion with Bill Banham, Carrie shares candidly about losing her career in sports marketing because of a lack of supportive recovery protocols. "There was no culture, no environment to which this was an acceptable conversation to have," she explains. This experience fuels her advocacy for HR policies that treat addiction with the same compassion as other medical conditions, including graduated return-to-work plans and appropriate accommodations.Corporate culture often unwittingly excludes those in recovery through alcohol-centered events like "Thirsty Thursdays" and "Wine Wednesdays." Carrie doesn't suggest eliminating these traditions but recommends including appealing non-alcoholic options so everyone feels "a part of, rather than apart from" these important social experiences. For executives and high-profile individuals, Caron's Ocean Drive program offers specialized treatment that balances recovery needs with limited work responsibilities, addressing a major barrier to seeking help.Ready to transform your workplace?
