Podcasts about leadership strategist

For the last two years, almost every conversation in technology has been about AI. New models. New tools. New agents. New automation. And honestly, I understand the excitement. I've spent more than 20 years working in technology, cloud, AI, and enterprise transformation. I've seen many waves of innovation. But this one feels different. Yet something has been bothering me. Every conference I attend, every LinkedIn post I read, every discussion I have with business leaders seems focused on one question: "What can AI do?" Very few people are asking: "What should I become?" A few years ago, if someone wanted career growth, the advice was simple. Work hard. Gain experience. Move to the next role. Today, that roadmap is disappearing. The world is changing faster than job descriptions can keep up. And that's why this conversation matters. Because the future may not belong to the people with the best title. It may belong to the people who remain curious, adaptable, connected, and willing to keep learning. In this episode, we're not talking about prompts or models. We're talking about people. Because while AI is changing work, humans are still responsible for creating meaning.

EPISODE 4: Why High Performers Quietly Disconnect From LeadershipMost leaders are shocked when a high-performing employee resigns.They say things like:"I didn't see it coming.""They never said anything.""I thought they were happy."But the truth is, high performers rarely disconnect overnight.They disconnect gradually.Silently.Professionally.And leadership often misses every warning sign.In this episode of Leadership Unfiltered, executive coach and leadership strategist Mary Ricketts explores why some of the organization's most talented, committed, and reliable employees quietly disengage from leadership long before they leave the organization.This isn't simply a retention issue.It's a leadership issue.And in many organizations, it's an Executive Clarity™ issue.In this conversation, you'll discover:• Why high performers often receive the least amount of leadership attention• The hidden connection between leadership effectiveness and employee retention• How trust begins to erode inside organizations• The warning signs of disengagement leaders frequently overlook• Why top talent often disconnects before leadership notices• The organizational costs of losing high-performing employees• How leadership confusion, inconsistent communication, and lack of accountability impact retention• Why employee engagement is often a reflection of leadership behavior• The leadership practices that create trust, commitment, and long-term retentionThis episode is designed for:• CEOs• Executive Leaders• HR Executives• Senior Leadership Teams• Board Members• Superintendents• Business Owners• Organizational Decision Makers• Talent and Culture LeadersIf your organization is struggling with employee retention, disengagement, turnover, leadership effectiveness, workplace culture, communication challenges, accountability, or executive team alignment, this conversation will challenge how you think about keeping your best people.Because high performers don't usually leave because they stop caring.Many leave because they cared for too long without seeing meaningful leadership change.ABOUT MARY RICKETTSMary Ricketts is an Executive Coach, Leadership Strategist, Keynote Speaker, and CEO of Turning Point Training & Development.

EPISODE 3: The Leadership Blind Spots Costing Organizations More Than MoneyMost organizations don't struggle because leaders don't care.They struggle because leaders can't see what they can't see.The most expensive leadership challenges rarely begin as financial problems. They begin as leadership blind spots—unseen gaps that impact trust, communication, employee engagement, executive team alignment, decision-making, organizational culture, and overall performance.In this episode of Leadership Unfiltered, executive coach and leadership strategist Mary Ricketts explores the hidden leadership risks that often go unnoticed until organizations begin experiencing turnover, disengagement, low trust, poor communication, declining morale, leadership team tension, and stalled growth.You'll discover:• Why leadership blind spots exist at every level of leadership• The difference between leadership intention and organizational impact• How executive leaders unknowingly create confusion, frustration, and disengagement• The hidden costs of leadership blind spots that never appear on financial reports• Why executive teams often overestimate alignment• How trust, culture, accountability, and leadership credibility are affected by what leaders fail to see• The warning signs organizations ignore before performance begins to decline• Why high-performing leaders actively seek feedback, challenge assumptions, and prioritize Executive Clarity™This episode is designed for:• CEOs• Executive Leaders• Senior Leadership Teams• HR Executives• Board Members• Superintendents• Department Leaders• Business Owners• Organizational Decision MakersIf your organization is experiencing communication breakdowns, leadership challenges, culture concerns, accountability gaps, employee disengagement, executive team misalignment, or difficulty navigating change, this conversation will challenge how you think about leadership effectiveness.Because the greatest leadership risk is often not what you know.It's what you don't know you can't see.ABOUT MARY RICKETTSMary Ricketts is an Executive Coach, Leadership Strategist, Keynote Speaker, and CEO of Turning Point Training & Development.

Your Team Isn't Burned Out — They're Exhausted From Leadership ConfusionBurnout has become the explanation for almost everything in today's workplace.Low engagement? Burnout.Turnover? Burnout.Poor morale? Burnout.Declining performance? Burnout.But what if we're diagnosing the wrong problem?In this episode of Leadership Unfiltered, executive coach and leadership strategist Mary Ricketts challenges one of the most common assumptions leaders make about employee exhaustion.Many employees are not overwhelmed by the amount of work they have to do. They are overwhelmed by unclear priorities, conflicting expectations, inconsistent communication, constant organizational changes, and leadership teams that are not aligned.Employees can handle hard work.What they struggle to handle is uncertainty.In this powerful conversation, Mary explores:• The difference between employee burnout and leadership confusion• Why unclear expectations create frustration, disengagement, and turnover• How leadership teams unintentionally create confusion inside organizations• The hidden cost of inconsistent communication and shifting priorities• Why employees stop contributing when clarity disappears• The leadership behaviors that build trust, alignment, and accountability• Questions every executive team should be asking themselves right nowIf you are a CEO, executive leader, HR professional, superintendent, department leader, board member, or organizational decision-maker, this episode will challenge how you think about employee engagement, workplace culture, leadership communication, and organizational performance.Because sometimes the problem isn't employee burnout.Sometimes the problem is leadership clarity.ABOUT MARY RICKETTSMary Ricketts is an Executive Coach, Leadership Strategist, Keynote Speaker, and CEO of Turning Point Training & Development.

It's Mental Health Awareness Month, and we're launching our “Campus Care Collective” series with William Middlebrooks, Deputy Athletic Director, Leadership Strategist, and Basketball Program Director at Lincoln University in Oakland, California. From college basketball player to high school coach at age 18, Coach Middlebrooks shares how mental health fuels athletic success and lifelong prosperity. He warns against desperation-driven sports decisions while coaching parents to prioritize personal value over financial prospects. Through programming designed with his wife, athletes build mental resilience, conflict resolution, organizational skills, and real-world grounding through jobs and community service. After leading teams to championships, he teaches true success balances on-court wins with off-court intentionality, which is where most athletes actually build their wealth. ⁠ Coach Middlebrooks completed his MBA in Finance, Policy and Law at Southern Utah University, and received his Bachelor of Arts in Sports and Recreation Management at Ashford University in Chandler, Arizona. He is known for developing high-performing teams while prioritizing mental wellness and personal growth. Often called “The People's Coach,” Middlebrooks blends athletics, leadership, and life development to help student-athletes and professionals build resilience, manage pressure, and lead with purpose. His programs have produced championship teams, academic standouts, and transformational personal outcomes — all rooted in a culture that values mental health as a cornerstone of sustained success.

Send us Fan MailYour Team can tell when you're not really there and horses can tell even faster! Leadership Strategist, Speaker, Author & Equine-guided Coach Julia Felton, joins me to unpack “Business HorsePower”: the practical Leadership lessons that we can borrow from nature and horse-herd-dynamics to build trust, presence, and stronger Teams in the 21st century. We talk candidly about burnout that hides behind adrenaline, the identity wobble that shows up when the job title disappears, and why reinvention is no longer a one-off event but a constant Leadership capability.Julia shares how time in the African bush sharpened her ability to be present and how that same discipline translates into psychological safety at work. When leaders are distracted, inconsistent, or living in the future, teams feel unsafe and performance suffers. We explore the ripple effect leaders leave behind them, the difference between doing and being, and why sustainable pace matters more than perpetual drive.We also dig into technology and AI: the gift of lifelong learning, the curse of FOMO, and the growing trust problem when it's hard to know what's real. Julia introduces her diamond model of leadership for navigating uncertainty, built around attention, direction, energy, and congruence with belonging at the centre, and explains why equine-guided experiences create embodied learning that sticks long after the workshop ends.If you enjoy leadership development, team performance, reinvention, and human-centred communication, you'll take away clear ideas you can apply immediately.

Leadership Strategist and Organisational Psychologist, Dr Melrona Kirrane, reflects on how we can finally finish the jobs we started long ago.

In this episode of The High Performance Mindset, Dr. Cindra Kamphoff sits down with Ted Ma—leadership strategist, researcher, author, and keynote speaker—to explore what truly separates average leaders from exceptional ones. Earlier in his career, Ted built and led a sales organization of more than 6,000 people across North America. But through that experience, he began asking a deeper question: What actually makes leadership sustainable, impactful, and human? That curiosity led him to study mentorship, trust, confidence, and culture—and to develop the concept of Everyday Mentorship. Throughout the conversation, Ted explains why leadership isn't about titles or authority—it's about the small, daily behaviors that build trust, confidence, and performance over time. He breaks down the "DNA" of high-performing teams, why culture is a true competitive advantage, and the common misconceptions leaders have when trying to shift culture. Ted also shares research-backed insights on what drives engagement and retention, the mental barriers that limit leadership confidence, and practical ways leaders can begin building stronger cultures immediately. This episode is a powerful reminder that high performance doesn't happen by accident—it's built intentionally, one conversation and one courageous leadership decision at a time.     You'll Learn: What Everyday Mentorship really means—and why it matters now more than ever The DNA of high-performing sales teams Why culture is a competitive advantage (not just a buzzword) The biggest misconception leaders have about changing culture Research insights on trust, confidence, and engagement The mental barriers that limit leadership growth One practical framework leaders can implement immediately     Episode Resources & Links Learn more about Ted Ma: https://realtedma.com/ Download our 2025 National Confidence Study: https://confidencestudy.com/ Request a Free Mental Breakthrough Call with Dr. Cindra or her team: https://freementalbreakthroughcall.com/ Learn more about the Mentally Strong Institute: https://mentallystronginstitute.com/  

Episode Summary   Phil Willcox is joined by Sara Sabin to explore the internal game of leadership and why tools and frameworks aren't enough without emotional mastery. Sara explains that mastery isn't about being emotionless, it's about noticing emotions without resisting them, regulating in the moment and spending more time in emotional neutrality (calm and clear, not suppression or “not caring”).   They share a practical pathway, awareness, acknowledgement, acceptance, labelling and processing, plus two quick regulation tools: the power of the pause and a short mental rehearsal before high-pressure moments.   The conversation also tackles “repellent energy” (neediness that leaks through communication), how to stay ambitious without over-attaching to outcomes and why many leaders build confidence on external validation. Sara introduces internal scaffolding, a steadier confidence that holds up when work and life shake your identity.   Key Topics Discussed   Emotional mastery and emotional neutrality The regulation pathway: awareness, acceptance, processing The pause (hard hack) vs mental rehearsal (easy hack) “Repellent energy” and reducing attachment to outcomes External vs internal confidence scaffolding Using challenges as “stress tests” to strengthen identity and self-worth   Guest Bio   Sara Sabin is a Business Profits and Leadership Strategist who works with founders and senior leaders of high-growth SMEs to strengthen performance, confidence and impact. She supports leaders who recognise that sustainable growth requires more than strategy alone, blending leadership strategy with mindset and emotional mastery to help clients lead under pressure, build resilient teams and achieve greater results without burnout.   LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sara-c-sabin-coach/ Email: https://www.sarasabin.com/ Website: https://www.sarasabin.com/

Please join Kelly Boyer and me as we talk about The Collapse of the Old Paradigm: Why Everything is Shifting and What it Means for You. In this talk with Kelly we will discuss: -The world isn't falling apart—it's resetting. The breakdown of old systems is making way for something new and more aligned with higher consciousness. -Fear and scarcity are illusions of the old paradigm. The new energy is about abundance, collaboration, and sovereignty. -You are being called to step forward. If you feel a pull to lead, heal, or create, it's because your soul chose to be here for this moment. -Your energy and mindset shape your reality. Aligning with higher frequencies—through mindfulness, spiritual practices, and conscious action—will help you thrive. -The time for playing small is over. Your voice, gifts, and presence are needed to help usher in this new reality. The world is waiting for you to rise. -Kelly will be doing an activation live on the call. The activation will be connecting your higher mind to the highest timeline to begin the shift into the new paradigm and activating new light codes within your crystalline DNA to receive the higher frequencies needed for that new paradigm shift.  Kelly Boyer is the founder of Transformative Healing, L.L.C., SheRises Amplify & Thrive for Six Figure Success, and creator/host of the SheRises Amplify & Thrive LIVE Speaker Series.
