Think about the last time you faced a major change or setback. Who did you turn to? That instinct, that pull toward others when things get hard, isn't weakness, it's strategy. Carlee Wolfe, a global leader in talent and organizational effectiveness at Hyatt Hotels Corporation, joins host Sreemedha to talk about why community may be the most underrated tool in leadership and change, what it actually looks like to lean on your network instead of pretending to have all the answers, and how to keep human connection alive even as AI reshapes how we work. About the Guest: Carlee Wolfe is Associate Vice President of Leader Development and Organizational Effectiveness at Hyatt Hotels Corporation, with more than 20 years of experience in talent management, leadership development, and change management. Her background includes leadership roles at Under Armour and the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Committee, and she coaches leaders and job seekers on navigating change with clarity, curiosity, and confidence. Key Takeaways: The old idea that leaders must have all the answers is outdated, openness about what you don't know yet can be a strength, not a weakness. Build your own "personal board of directors," the 5 to 7 people closest to you who shape your life, and revisit who's on it every six months. When you feel isolated, get curious first: why does this feel this way right now, and what am I trying to do that feels solitary? Community isn't just your closest circle, it includes coworkers, coaches, and even online spaces where you learn and engage. With AI reshaping work, the human edge is intentional collaboration, using AI as a tool while doubling down on how teams think and innovate together.

In this episode of the Curt Landry Podcast, Rabbi Curt is joined by Pastor Michael to break down the much-debated topic of women in ministry leadership roles, what the Bible teaches, and why out-of-context scriptures have caused centuries of confusion and misunderstanding.When we look at the significant and strategic roles women play throughout the Bible, from Deborah to Esther to Mary Magdalene, we see God's heart for women to have an equal part in building God's Kingdom through their voice and leadership. Acts 2:17-18 declares that both sons and daughters will prophesy, which involves edifying, teaching, and declaring God's truths. 1 Timothy 2:12 and 1 Corinthians 14 address specific local issues regarding order in worship services with new converts, and are not reflective of a universal protocol for all time.The Holy Spirit can move and speak just as powerfully through a woman as through a man, and the Body of Messiah is stronger when men and women partner together in humility under God's authority.Join Rabbi and Pastor Michael as they unpack misinterpreted passages with grace and clarity, and encourage women to operate in their spiritual gifts without being limited by societal or denominational labels.#WomenInMinistry #WomenLeaders #biblicalteaching #ChristianPodcast

Promoting a high-producing advisor into a leadership role without teaching them how to lead isn't development, it's a risk transfer. Ray Sclafani has seen this pattern play out across hundreds of advisory firms: the best advisor gets promoted, the firm assumes leadership will follow, and within months the culture quietly starts to fracture. In this episode, Ray makes the case that leadership development is not a soft-skills initiative as it is an operational and economic imperative that directly shapes growth, retention, client experience, and enterprise value.What You Will Learn in This EpisodeWhy promoting high performers without leadership training is one of the most common and costly mistakes in wealth managementThe five direct questions every leadership team should ask to diagnose their management infrastructureHow to define what "meeting," "exceeding," and "far exceeding" expectations looks like for every leadership role in your firmHow to build a leadership scorecard that makes accountability observable, coachable, and measurableWhy leadership depth, not any single rainmaker or founder, is what allows a firm to grow without breakingKey Insight from This Episode"Promoting a high-producing advisor into a manager or leadership role without teaching that person how to lead is not development. That is a risk transfer."Leadership is not a reward for strong performance. It is a distinct skill set that requires training, structure, and ongoing accountability. The firms that invest in building that infrastructure now will have the bench depth, the culture, and the continuity to compete at the highest level — and to scale without depending on any one person.The Five Questions to Diagnose Your Leadership InfrastructureAsk your leadership team right now:Performance Reviews: Do you conduct performance reviews more than once a year?One-on-Ones: Do managers hold one-on-one meetings with their direct reports at least monthly?Feedback: Do employees receive regular, real-time feedback — not just at review time?Defined Standards: Have you defined what meeting, exceeding, and far exceeding expectations looks like for every role in your firm?Manager Accountability: Are managers held accountable for engagement, retention, and the development of the people they lead?If the honest answer to most of those is "no" or "not consistently," you have a leadership development gap and that gap has a direct cost.The Four-Step Framework for Building LeadersStep 1 — Define the Leadership Role Vague expectations produce vague performance. When a person is promoted to manager, their scope must be explicit and written down: What do they own? Which decisions are theirs to make? Which require alignment? Which belong elsewhere? Clarity here is not bureaucratic, because it is the foundation of effective leadership.Step 2 — Define What Strong Performance Looks Like For every leadership role, articulate three levels:Meeting expectations — Holds regular one-on-ones, provides timely feedback, follows through on commitments, keeps the team alignedExceeding expectations — Develops talent ahead of need, strengthens team capacity, reduces confusion, helps others make better decisionsFar exceeding expectations — Develops leaders who develop other leaders, builds scalable systems, improves retention, reduces the firm's dependence on any single personOnce the levels are defined, performance conversations, calibration, comp decisions, and development plans all improve. People stop guessing.Step 3 — Build a Feedback Cadence Annual reviews are too slow. By the time the review occurs, everyone already knows what should have been said months earlier. Managers should hold regular one-on-ones, provide feedback in real time, and ask the questions that matter: What is working? What is unclear? What needs to change? What support is required? What are you learning? Where do you want to grow? Feedback should not be dramatic. It should be normal.Step 4 — Hold Leaders Accountable for the People They Lead A manager should be evaluated not only on their personal performance or technical competence, but on the engagement, retention, development, and performance of their team. If a leader is personally successful but leaves behind confusion, burnout, or turnover, that is not strong leadership. Create a leadership scorecard for every manager in your firm. Include five measures: communication rhythm, feedback quality, talent development, accountability, and team health. Review it quarterly. Coach to it. Compensate it.Coaching Questions for ReflectionWhich leaders in your firm, including you, have been promoted based on production or contribution, but never trained to lead?Where have you clearly defined performance expectations, and where are people still guessing?Which leadership behaviors should be measured because they directly shape culture and retention at your firm?What would change if managers were held accountable for the growth of the people they lead?Why This Matters for Enterprise ValueManagers shape the firm's lived experience. Not the values poster in the break room. Not the retreat agenda. Not the title structure. Managers decide how feedback is delivered, whether accountability is real, whether talent is developed or ignored, whether high performers are challenged, whether underperformance is tolerated, whether meetings are useful, and whether people feel stretched, supported, and included.SHRM research shows that only 44% of managers globally have received formal management training. More than 90% of HR executives say people managers are critically important to organizational success — and job satisfaction nearly doubles among workers with highly effective managers.For advisory firms, this isn't abstract. Leadership development affects growth and retention, client experience, and ultimately the enterprise value of what you are building.The firms that develop leaders will win — because they will not rely on any single founder, rainmaker, or heroic operator. They will build bench depth. And that bench depth is what allows a firm to grow without breaking.Resources & References MentionedSHRM — Global Management Training ResearchKorn Ferry — Workforce 2025 Research ReportBuilding the Billion Dollar Business is hosted by Ray Sclafani, founder and CEO of ClientWise, the financial services industry's leading executive coaching and team development firm for elite advisors and wealth management teams.Find Ray and the ClientWise Team on the ClientWise website or LinkedIn | Twitter | Instagram | Facebook | YouTubeBuilding The Billion Dollar Business

What defines great leadership? And how can HR support the leaders of the future?Business leaders are facing rising pressure to take on a growing list of responsibilities, and employees' expectations of people in leadership roles are rapidly evolving.To help navigate these changes, and outline how organisations can best equip the leaders of tomorrow, we spoke to Danny Harmer, chief people officer for the insurer Aviva.Harmer joined the HR Most Influential Hall of Fame list in 2025, after being recognised seven times as one of HR magazine's most influential practitioners.
Welcome to the Financial Freedom & Wealth Trailblazers Podcast! In today's episode, we're talking about how to become equipped to grow into roles of leadership in your career. Rusty Davidson is a leadership author, keynote speaker, and consultant who helps organizations and individuals transform leadership from an abstract ideal into a lived, repeatable practice. As the creator of The ABCs of Leadership framework, Rusty equips leaders with clear systems for building accountability, improving culture, and strengthening execution across complex, fast-changing environments.Rusty's work bridges the gap between inspiration and implementation. Rather than focusing on motivational moments alone, he helps leaders develop sustainable habits that shape how decisions are made, how teams communicate, and how responsibility is shared. His approach resonates across corporate, nonprofit, and higher education settings, where leaders are increasingly asked to deliver results while navigating uncertainty, change, and growing human complexity.Known for his practical, narrative-driven style, Rusty delivers leadership content that is both deeply human and operationally grounded. He is particularly passionate about supporting emerging and reluctant leaders—those who may not have sought leadership but find themselves carrying it—by helping them build confidence, clarity, and credibility without losing authenticity.Through keynote speaking, consulting, and executive coaching, Rusty partners with HR teams, executives, educators, and organizations seeking leadership that is not only effective, but sustainable. His work consistently centers one question: not just what leaders achieve, but who they become in the process.Connect with Rusty Here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rustydavidson/https://www.facebook.com/rustyldavidsonhttps://www.instagram.com/rustyldavidson/https://www.youtube.com/@rdavidson84https://www.rustydavidson.com/Grab the freebie here: rustydavidson.com/wildpreview===================================If you enjoyed this episode, remember to hit the like button and subscribe.

“Being a CF aunt has shaped so much of my life. Now I get the opportunity to turn that love and connection into helping even more people at Breathe Strong CF." Julie Dunn Eichenberg didn't just find the cystic fibrosis community, she's been part of it for more than 30 years as a proud CF aunt. That personal connection is what makes this next chapter so meaningful. Julie recently stepped into the role of Executive Director at BreatheStrong CF, where the focus is on helping people with cystic fibrosis live stronger, healthier lives through exercise, education, and empowerment. And while she brings decades of experience in leadership, fundraising, and relationship-building, she's honest about getting used to the role. She's learning. Listening. Figuring out the day-to-day. And really taking the time to understand how she can best serve the community in this new position. Before this, Julie spent 20 years at Turner Broadcasting System (now part of Warner Bros. Discovery), and later held leadership roles at Florida State University and Fan Data Insights. But no matter where her career took her, the CF community was always part of her life. She's also been deeply involved with the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, serving as Chair of the Georgia Chapter and contributing at the national level. We talk about what it feels like to step into a leadership role that's so personal. The excitement, the pressure, and the responsibility that comes with it. Julie shares what she's learning, what's surprised her, and why her connection as a CF aunt continues to guide every decision she makes. Because for Julie, this isn't just a job, it's personal.

In this episode, Ben unpacks the concept of authentic leadership and simplifies it into practical action. Rather than trying to "bring your whole self to work," he suggests selectively bringing the most useful parts of yourself in a professional context. He introduces the leadership shield exercise, where leaders define four "being" qualities they want to embody at work. Ben also emphasises understanding personal values, developing self-awareness through feedback, and using 360 feedback processes to identify blind spots. Authentic leadership, he argues, builds trust and reduces stress because you are not pretending to be someone else.

Intensivist Cristin Mount and business operations lead Steve Lettrich from All Levels Leadership discuss their article "A 6-step framework for new health care leaders." The authors address the common challenge where clinicians step into leadership roles with little formal training. They outline a practical framework designed to help new leaders navigate complex organizational webs. The conversation details six critical steps: understanding organizational priorities, building relationships with stakeholders, defining goals through needs assessment, categorizing challenges by timeline, developing 90-day action plans, and remaining adaptable. Cristin and Steve emphasize that success relies on aligning departmental goals with the broader mission to secure necessary resources and support. Partner with me on the KevinMD platform.

ITP - 140 A Liverpool-born educator who once resisted teaching ends up saying yes to South Korea—and never looks back. Ken Bence traces an 18+ year arc from public-school TEFL to PGCE, then into a fast-growing bilingual school in Shanghai where rapid expansion pulled him into hiring, standards alignment, and early leadership. Seeking the IB bridge, he lands in Kuwait and grows into K–12 instructional coaching with the help of strong mentors, then tackles leadership fairs, multiple offers, and a vice head role that drops him back into China just as COVID reshapes borders and daily life. The journey continues through Shenzhen and Chengdu, a doctorate alongside principal work, and a brief interim senior leadership post in Budapest—plus practical rituals that make each new country feel like home: spices, quality bedding, and a folder of notes that keeps the purpose front and center.(00:00) Introduction to Ken Bence and His Journey(02:35) Cultural Shock and First Impressions in South Korea(06:53) Transitioning to Leadership Roles in Education(12:40) Exploring New Opportunities in Kuwait(17:37) Navigating Job Fairs and Networking in International Teaching(22:48) Navigating Career Pathways in Education(24:31) Midway-Contact Break(27:06) Cultural Shifts: Returning to China During COVID(29:59) Transitioning to Chengdu: New Challenges and Opportunities(32:55) Career Baby Steps: Progressing Through Education Roles(34:19) New Beginnings: Moving to Budapest(36:20) Preparing for Change: Leaving Budapest(40:29) The Emotional Journey of Teaching AbroadThe International Teacher Podcast is a bi-weekly discussion with experts in international education.

Federal Chief Information Officer Greg Barbaccia will be adding two new titles — at least temporarily — to his work in government. The General Services Administration announced Thursday that Barbaccia will join the agency as the acting director of Technology Transformation Services. He'll be replacing Thomas Shedd, one of the few officials left at the agency who helped carry out the so-called Department of Government Efficiency's cost-cutting initiative last year. Shedd will remain at the agency as its senior advisor for fraud prevention, which the GSA said is “an area of increasing importance for the agency and the administration.” The federal CIO was also tapped as senior advisor to the GSA administrator, the agency said. In this role, advising former privacy equity executive Edward Forst, Barbaccia will focus on “emerging technologies, best practices in digital delivery, and cross-government collaboration.” The Pentagon will adhere to existing laws and regulations associated with surveillance, security and democratic processes as it fast-tracks the military's frontier AI adoption, but it won't permit companies supplying the technology to determine its rules for operation, Undersecretary of Defense for Research and Engineering Emil Michael told DefenseScoop. His comments come as the Defense Department is locked in a high-stakes dispute with Anthropic about the U.S. military's use of the startup's Claude AI model in real-world operations. During a meeting with a small group of reporters on the sidelines of the annual Microelectronics Commons summit Thursday, Michael provided updates on the department's GenAI.mil rollout and pushed for the ethics-related rift between the Pentagon and Anthropic to be resolved. “I believe and hope that they will ‘cross the Rubicon' and say, ‘This is common sense. The military has certain use cases. There are laws and regulations that govern how those use cases can be done. We're willing to comply with them,'” he said.

Leverage Your Incredible Factor Business Podcast with Darnyelle Jervey Harmon, MBA
“Strength becomes a cage when you forget you're allowed to set it down.”— Dr. Darnyelle Jervey Harmon This episode is powered by The Ascension Archetype Quiz. If you are the one who always has it together, this conversation is going to feel uncomfortably accurate. If you are a 6- or 7-figure CEO who is calm under pressure, dependable in crisis, composed when everyone else spirals, and secretly exhausted from carrying it all, lean in. We're talking about high-performing leaders, emotional suppression in leadership, nervous system bracing, performance-based identity, and the quiet cost of always being the strong one. This episode names what happens when professionalism turns into self-containment, when leadership culture rewards composure over honesty, and when your body starts holding receipts for the strength you never put down. Here's the truth: always having it all together requires chronic self-containment, and chronic self-containment eventually turns into suppression. Your body does not interpret that as leadership. It interprets it as bracing. And over time, bracing becomes tension, tension becomes disconnection, and disconnection becomes distance from yourself. You'll walk away with language for something you've normalized for years. You'll understand the difference between performance and stability, why identity fused with responsibility makes rest feel unsafe, and how your wiring as a Performer, Producer, Pathmaker, Powerhouse, or Prophet shapes how this shows up for you. Most importantly, you'll realize you are not broken. You are patterned. And patterns can be shifted. Grab your Move to Millions Podcast Notebook, a pen and your favorite beverage and listen in to discover: ✔ How to recognize when leadership strength has become self-containment ✔ How to differentiate performance from true internal stability ✔ How to begin rebuilding connection with yourself without abandoning responsibility ✔And so much more This episode is a call to the strong friend, the dependable CEO, the one everyone leans on and no one checks on. It's for leaders who confuse performance with stability and who have slowly fused their identity with being the one who never falls apart. What stands out about this conversation is that it does not attack your strength. It reframes it. And then it asks you to count the cost. This is your invitation to pause the performance long enough to feel what's actually happening inside of you. To stop asking “What's required of me?” and start asking “How am I actually doing?” If rest feels complicated, if vulnerability feels risky, and if letting support in feels foreign, this episode is for you.

Do I feel safe letting people see me uncertain or tired? Where in my body do I feel bracing, even during rest? Who checks on me without needing something from me? If I wasn't managing everything, who would I be? Want more of Darnyelle?

Leading can feel heavy. Today executives are under more pressure than ever. If you've ever thought "this is harder than I expected" or "I'm not sure I even want this anymore," you're far from alone. Recent studies show that 70% of C-suite executives are seriously considering leaving their roles for the sake of their well-being, and more than half are expected to exit within two years.Even more telling: younger employees increasingly don't aspire to leadership positions at all. They see those roles as too stressful, too political, with not enough payoff. They seek meaning over money.Find the full show notes at:https://workmatters.com/Leadership-Role-Feeling-Heavy-You-Have-Options

What happens when danger comes from where you least expect it? Bart Womack dedicated nearly three decades of his life to serving the United States Army, rising to the highest enlisted ranks and leading soldiers in combat, training, and some of the most sacred roles in military service. But one moment forever changed his understanding of trust, leadership, and survival when he became a firsthand survivor of a deadly insider attack carried out by a fellow American soldier. This episode explores the psychological impact of betrayal, the long road to healing after trauma, and how Bart transformed one of the darkest moments of his life into a mission focused on prevention, awareness, and leadership. His story is not just about military service — it's about resilience, responsibility, and choosing purpose after devastation. Guest Bio Command Sergeant Major (Ret.) Bart E. Womack served over 29 years in the United States Army, holding elite roles including Drill Sergeant, Ranger Instructor, and Sergeant of the Guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. A two-time combat veteran, Bart retired after serving as both Commandant of the 101st Airborne Division Noncommissioned Officers Academy and Command Sergeant Major of the 101st Airborne Division. Following his military career, Bart transitioned into film, consulting, and veteran advocacy, working in Hollywood as a military technical advisor and supporting veterans through education and mentorship. He is the author of Embedded Enemy, which recounts his survival of a deadly insider attack, and he now serves as a speaker and security consultant focused on mitigating insider threats and active shooter incidents. You'll hear About Bart's rise through the Army and leadership at the highest enlisted levels The insider attack that reshaped his understanding of trust and safety The emotional and psychological aftermath of surviving betrayal Turning trauma into advocacy, education, and prevention What leaders must understand about insider threats today Chapters 00:00 Welcome and Introduction 02:10 Bart's Early Military Path and Commitment to Service 05:20 Leadership Roles and Life in the 101st Airborne Division 08:30 Combat Experience and the Reality of Trust in Uniform 12:10 The Insider Attack and the Moment Everything Changed 16:30 Surviving Trauma, Shock, and Moral Injury 20:10 Writing Embedded Enemy and Processing the Experience 24:10 From Survivor to Advocate and Educator 27:30 Leadership Lessons for Organizations and Communities 30:30 Bart's Message on Vigilance, Awareness, and Responsibility 33:00 Chuck's Closing Reflections Chuck's Challenge This week, reflect on how you assess trust and awareness in your own environment.

Ep 139 - Hosts JP Mint and Greg Lemoine reconnect with longtime international educator and MYP middle school principal Chris Irvin, whose 20+ year journey spans Canada, Venezuela and China. Chris shares how he built a sustainable international teaching career—starting in a small Venezuelan school, transitioning into leadership, and eventually moving into MYP and IB continuum leadership at a large international school in Shenzhen. The conversation dives into international school hiring, what administrators really look for beyond credentials, how schools evaluate “right fit” and the elusive “plus one” candidates bring to a community, and why IB and MYP experience is not always required to get hired. Listeners also hear candid stories about local vs expat contracts, raising Third Culture Kids, language learning abroad, safety and independence for teens overseas, and memorable life moments—from power blackouts and police encounters in Venezuela to building a new life in China.

A senior leader asked how to support a talented woman who's quiet in meetings and doesn't look like a 'traditional' leader. We break down a simple three-step framework: the reality check (does she actually want the role?), finding her leadership style (there's more than one way to lead, thank god), and creating low-stakes practice opportunities. Whether you're supporting someone or wondering if you need to act like a guy (ahem, no), this one's for you. Plus: why showing up to a first meeting in activewear might actually be a power move, and why we're begging our Apple listeners to figure out how to leave a review!Loved it?

Summary In this episode, Andy talks with Martin Dubin, psychologist, former CEO, executive coach, and author of Blindspotting: How to See What's Holding You Back as a Leader. Marty brings a rare combination of clinical insight and real-world leadership experience to a topic that affects every project manager and frontline leader: the blindspots that quietly shape our behavior, decisions, and impact. Together, the discussion explores how motives often drive our actions without us realizing it, why strengths can become liabilities when overused, and how emotion acts as one of the most powerful and least discussed forces in leadership. Marty explains his layered model of blindspots, including identity, motive, traits, emotion, and behavior, and shows how leaders can build awareness without trying to "fix" who they are. You will also hear practical guidance on creating a simple change plan that actually sticks, using small behavioral tweaks, prompts, and accountability rather than dramatic personal transformation. The conversation closes with thoughtful examples of how blindspotting can improve not only leadership at work, but relationships at home as well. If you want practical insight into leading with greater self-awareness, emotional range, and intentional growth, this episode is for you! Sound Bites "The hardest part of leadership is not managing others. It's managing ourselves." "Your strengths work for you most of the time, which is why it's so hard to see when they start working against you." "You know, whatever it is, it's usually invisible to us until someone or something forces it into view." "Now, if you put the modifier TOO in front of it, what happens when you're TOO confident? What happens when you're TOO organized? What happens when you're TOO creative?" "What do they tell you? You are too...." "Motives constrict under stress, and that's often when blindspots do the most damage." "Traits don't need to be changed. They need to be regulated." "Emotion is one of the most powerful tools leaders have, whether they use it intentionally or not." "Real change comes from small behavioral tweaks, not personality transformation."

How to unlock the power of groups through collective communication.They say teamwork makes the dream work. But as Colin Fisher knows, unlocking the power of groups requires a specific kind of collective communication.Fisher is an associate professor of organizations and innovation at University College London School of Management and author of The Collective Edge: Unlocking the Secret Power of Groups. His research reveals the dichotomy of group dynamics: "Groups can be the pinnacle of human accomplishment," he says. "But groups also have these tendencies to restrict us, to take away our individuality, and to sometimes make us the worst versions of ourselves.” The key, he argues, is fostering communication that maximizes the creative synergy of collaboration while minimizing the pressure to conform.In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Fisher joins host Matt Abrahams to share evidence-based strategies for effective teamwork, from selecting the ideal group size to fostering psychological safety. Whether with our coworkers, our families, or our friends, Fisher's insights reveal how collective communication can make or break group success.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premium.Episode Reference Links:Colin FisherColin's Book: The Collective EdgeEp.174 Fix Meetings: Transform Gatherings Into Meaningful MomentsEp.124 Making Meetings Meaningful Pt. 1: How to Structure and Organize More Effective Gatherings Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:19) - Advantages and Disadvantages of Groups (03:53) - What Makes Teams Successful (05:37) - The Ideal Group Size (06:33) - Building Psychological Safety (08:49) - Launching a Team for Success (13:10) - Making Meetings More Effective (16:25) - The Final Three Questions (23:13) - Conclusion ********This episode is sponsored by Grammarly.
