Resigning from your job is never easy. It's often a mix of excitement about what's ahead and uncertainty about what you're leaving behind. But how you resign says a lot about your professionalism, your integrity, and your values as a leader. In this episode of the LEITWOLF® Podcast, Stefan talks about the art of resigning with clarity, respect, and foresight. He shares his own experience of leaving his first employer after 18 years and offers practical advice on how to step away without burning bridges – and instead, strengthen your reputation. You'll learn how to find the right mindset, communicate your decision clearly and respectfully, and actively shape a smooth transition. And you'll discover why a good resignation is not an ending, but the beginning of something new. ––– Do you like the LEITWOLF® Leadership podcast?

When it comes to giving yourself credit for your wins and accomplishments, how would you rate yourself?  Are you a strong self-promoter?  Do you share your accomplishments with others and routinely make it known that you're up to great things?  Or, do you tend to shy away from shining too brightly in front of others? As women leaders, we're often taught to keep our heads down, work hard, and let our results speak for themselves.  But here's the truth: results don't speak.  People do.  If we're not willing to talk about our wins, we're missing out on opportunities to advance our careers, inspire other women, and rewrite what leadership visibility looks like.  In this episode, I'm diving into why women need to brag more and how we can do it in ways that feel authentic, strategic, inspiring, and empowering to others. I'll unpack how women consistently undersell themselves compared to men, even when they're performing at the same or higher levels. We'll explore how cultural conditioning, fear of backlash, and the “be humble” narrative keep women from taking rightful credit for their accomplishments. I'll also talk about how self-promotion isn't egotistical or arrogant, but rather a form of advocacy. It's a way to own your impact, document your growth, and create a ripple effect that encourages other women to step into their power. You'll walk away from this episode with tangible strategies to brag smart, from reframing your wins as stories of impact to finding ways to normalize sharing success within your teams and networks. Whether you're climbing the ladder, leading a team, or mentoring others, this episode will help you show up more visibly, confidently, and unapologetically as the accomplished leader you already are. It's time to stop playing small and start celebrating yourself because when women brag, we all rise.

He explains why a termination should never come as a surprise, how to prepare both emotionally and practically, and why your behavior in this moment shapes the culture of your entire team.

Sometimes the most inspiring leadership conversations happen on the big stage. This special episode of the LEITWOLF® Podcast brings you a live recording from the Procter & Gamble Global Alumni Meeting 2025 in Berlin. In front of 500 executives from all over the world, Stefan hosted a fireside chat with two exceptional leaders: David Taylor, former CEO of Procter & Gamble, and Daniel Dippold, founder and CEO of EWOR. Under the title “Former P&G CEO meets Tech Entrepreneur – Redefining Leadership in Times of Uncertainty”, they explored some of the most important questions in leadership today. They spoke about whether leaders can truly provide security or whether clarity is the greater gift, about the surprising value of mathematics for effective leadership, about the difference between one-way and two-way door decisions, and about how the essence of leadership can be captured in just one word. This conversation connects the wisdom of decades of corporate leadership with the energy of a new entrepreneurial generation. It is a dialogue about clarity, courage and responsibility – and about the mindset that leaders need to navigate times of uncertainty. Because these lessons are as valuable for the LEITWOLF® community as they were for the global alumni audience in Berlin, Stefan is proud to share this special episode with you today. ––– Do you like the LEITWOLF® Leadership podcast?

"Sara, some of my newer leaders are really struggling. I know they want to shine, but they need support, and I don't have the time or skills to give them. Can you help?"  This is a conversation I've found myself in more and more over the last year. So, how did we get here?  More and more managers are being promoted into leadership roles without the training or support to succeed. In this episode, I unpack why so many emerging leaders are struggling: rapid reorgs, leaner teams, and the disappearance of formal leadership development. Then, I outline four key areas where new leaders need the most support. If you are an emerging leader in your organization, this episode will help you identify the skills you can develop to improve your leadership competence and confidence. If you are leading emerging leaders, this episode will help you more deeply understand how and why emerging leaders are struggling (often through no fault of their own) and what you can do to help them thrive. Whether you're an executive watching your emerging leaders flounder or a brand-new manager looking for your footing, this episode offers practical insights you can use right away. The hidden forces pushing people into leadership before they're ready The skill gaps most first-time leaders don't even know they have Four core areas every new leader needs to master: clarity & confidence, communication, coaching and people development, and leadership resilience How to spot when your rising leaders need extra support—and how to get it for them Links Mentioned: Attend my Influence & Ignite Retreat for Women Business Owners: saradean.com/retreat Hire me to speak: saradean.com/speaking Coach with me: https://saradean.com/executive-coaching-services Connect with me on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/saradeanspeaks Watch Shameless Leadership episodes on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@saradeanspeaks What You'll LearnInterested in becoming a sponsor of the Shameless Mom Academy?

Many companies talk about leadership – but only a few actually measure it. And that is where the real difference lies. Because what isn't measured cannot be improved. In this episode of the LEITWOLF® Podcast, Stefan explains why leadership measurement is so often neglected, what serious consequences this can have, and how organizations can strengthen both culture and results by defining, measuring, and consistently developing leadership. With examples from international projects and his own experience, Stefan shows why it's not enough to define leadership principles or run trainings – true impact only happens when leadership is made visible, assessed, and continuously improved. A clear message to leaders and organizations everywhere: No measurement, no impact – measurable leadership is what makes the difference. ––– Do you like the LEITWOLF® Leadership podcast?

At some point, every sales team has experienced a “sales diva”  You know the type: the top-performing rep who plays by their own rules. They cherry-pick leads, dodge meetings, ignore the CRM, and expect special treatment because of past wins.  It starts small and it's a slippery slope into a toxic preferential culture that can hurt the other sales reps performers.   In this episode of Sales is NOT a Dirty Word, I reveal why “sales divas” quietly destroy team culture, stall long-term growth, and keep founders stuck in a cycle of dependency. More importantly, you'll learn how to break the pattern before it sabotages your revenue. In this episode, you'll discover: ✔ Why catering to one “star” rep kills motivation across your entire sales team ✔ The hidden dangers of relying on a single person for 80% of your revenue ✔ How to coach mediocre sales performers into confident top performers ✔ What to say when your sales diva refuses to collaborate or follow process ✔ The leadership shifts that build accountability, trust, and shared success Your best salesperson should never feel like they're holding your company hostage.  If your team feels uneven, cutthroat, or overly dependent on one high performer, this episode will show you how to reset your sales culture, protect your revenue, and build a team that wins together. #SalesIsNotADirtyWord #SalesLeadership #SalesCulture #SalesTeamPerformance #SalesManagementTips #SalesStrategy #HighPerformingTeams #AuthenticSelling #SalesCoaching #LeadYourTeam #ServiceProviderSales #SalesProcessFix

As Joanne Z. Tan emphasizes, celebration is a leadership skill, a mental discipline, and a path to success. By learning to direct your focus toward the uplifting, you gain control over your state of happiness and empower those around you. Happiness is not a reaction, it's a choice. Celebration is your daily practice for resilience, connection, and leadership impact. - To read it as a half-min blog   - To watch it as a 1-minute video When do we need celebration the most? Paradoxically, in the darkest moments. True leaders and professionals can redirect attention from despair toward something—anything—worth honoring. Why Celebrate the Everyday Celebration doesn't require birthdays or milestones. Every step along your journey matters. By celebrating daily, you train your mind to live here and now—content, fulfilled, and grounded, even in turbulent environments. The Leadership Edge in Celebration In times of economic uncertainty and political divide, leaders have a unique role: Celebrate small wins—yours and your team's.

In this episode, I dive into one of the most vital keys to positive leadership, selflessness. Whether you're leading a team or raising a family, the best leaders and parents know it's about putting others first. I'll share why I believe the greatest leadership lessons often come from the challenges of parenting, and how true leadership is all about committing to your people, sacrificing for their growth, and showing up for them when it matters most. When your team knows you've got their back, their loyalty and commitment will follow. My hope is that you'll walk away encouraged to lead with selflessness and purpose so you can build stronger relationships at work and at home. If this encouragement resonates, share it with someone who wants to make a bigger impact today!   Here's a few additional resources for you… Follow me on Instagram: @JonGordon11 Order my new book 'The 7 Commitments of a Great Team' today!
