The Mentally Strong Leader   In this episode of Richer Soul, Scott Mautz, an acclaimed author, keynote speaker, and former Procter & Gamble executive shares powerful insights from his new book, The Mentally Strong Leader, focusing on how mental strength can be the leadership superpower that helps people overcome adversity and thrive in their personal and professional lives. The conversation touches on Scott's personal journey, the six “mental muscles” every leader needs, and the science behind building effective leadership habits. Key takeaways: Mental strength is the superpower that allows leaders to navigate challenges and lead with resilience. Cultivating mental strength requires building key habits that support confidence, fortitude, boldness, and clear communication. Leadership involves balancing confidence with humility to create an environment of trust. Reframing setbacks as learning opportunities strengthens mental fortitude. Leaders need to focus on long-term success and develop mental muscles that help them perform consistently. Money Learning: Scott shared his first major money lesson when he ran a pool-cleaning business as a high school student. He quickly realized that profitability hinges on a simple but often overlooked principle: your revenue must exceed your expenses. This early lesson in financial management taught Scott the importance of understanding costs and managing a business efficiently. Interestingly, Rocky pointed out that many adult business owners still struggle with this concept, underscoring the critical need for better financial literacy, both in personal and business contexts. Bio: Scott Mautz is the founder and CEO of Profound Performance, a keynote training and coaching company. He is a former executive at Procter & Gamble, where he successfully ran four of the company's largest multi-billion-dollar businesses. Scott is also a multi-award-winning author, with titles including Leading from the Middle, Find the Fire, and Make It Matter. Named a “Top 50 Leadership Innovator” by Inc.com and a "CEO Thought-Leader" by The Chief Executives Guild, Scott is dedicated to helping leaders cultivate mental strength. He is also a faculty member at Indiana University's Kelley School of Business for Executive Education and a top instructor at LinkedIn Learning. Key Discussion Points: Building Mental Strength: Scott emphasizes that mental strength is crucial for leadership, especially in today's fast-paced, high-pressure world. He introduces the concept of six “mental muscles” that leaders need to develop: fortitude, confidence, boldness, decision-making, goal-focus, and messaging. These are the pillars of mental strength, and they help leaders stay resilient in the face of adversity. Habit-Building Science: One of the key elements of Scott's approach is the idea of habit-building science. He explains how habits can shape behavior and how leaders can build mental strength by adopting practices that reinforce resilience and clear communication. For example, reframing setbacks as opportunities to learn is a habit that strengthens fortitude over time. Confidence with Humility: Scott points out the importance of balancing confidence with humility. While confidence is necessary for effective leadership, it must be tempered with a willingness to listen and adapt. This balance creates a culture of trust and respect within a team, which is essential for long-term success. Reframing Setbacks: Scott shares practical strategies for reframing setbacks, an essential habit for mental strength. Leaders often face challenges, and those who can view these moments as learning experiences rather than failures build resilience. This mindset shift is crucial for staying positive and proactive in difficult times. The Power of Messaging: Effective communication is one of the core “mental muscles” Scott talks about. He explains that leaders need to send clear, purposeful messages to their teams. This requires intentionality, precision, and consistency. The ability to convey the right message at the right time can make all the difference in motivating and leading a team. Conclusion: In this episode, Scott Mautz delivers a masterclass on the mental strength required to lead effectively in today's challenging world. His insights on habit-building science, resilience, and leadership balance provide listeners with practical tools they can apply immediately in their personal and professional lives.

“Mental strength is the leadership superpower of our time,” says Scott Mautz, a distinguished author, keynote speaker, former Procter & Gamble senior executive, and founder and CEO of Profound Performance. This week, he joins Mike Horne to delve into the essence of leadership and mental strength, offering timely and transformative insights from his latest book, “The Mentally Strong Leader.”   Highlighting six core mental muscles—fortitude, confidence, boldness, decision-making, goal focus, and messaging—Scott reveals the critical components for effective leadership. His journey from managing multi-billion dollar brands at Procter & Gamble to becoming a thought leader in human capital offers a rich perspective on what distinguishes great leaders. Extensive research involving over 3,000 executives underscores the importance of these mental muscles.   Mental strength, Scott argues, transcends emotional intelligence by encompassing a broader range of skills vital for leadership. He also touches on creating meaning in work, a central theme in his earlier book, “Make It Matter.”   In a world where business challenges are constant and complex, understanding and building mental strength can make all the difference. Scott's insights provide practical strategies and a fresh perspective on what it takes to lead effectively and thrive personally. This episode is an invaluable resource for those looking to navigate and excel in the ever-evolving landscape of leadership.   Quotes “My first book is called ‘Make It Matter.' It was about the importance of creating meaning in your work and at your job, and how to go about doing that. I believe that meaning is one of the great motivators of our time. Understanding how to create meaning, a sense of purpose, and a desire for employees to leave a legacy behind was something I was very interested in. That book led me straight into the early work I started doing on mental strength and understanding how mental strength intersects with great leadership, especially in times of adversity.” (04:55 | Scott Mautz) “Leadership often means it's no longer about you. It's about looking at things through the lens of your employees and those around you, helping them to deliver on their goals and the company's goals by helping them to learn and grow, and helping them to find meaning in their own work. That requires mental strength.” (08:06 | Scott Mautz) “Mental toughness is a part of mental strength. And now, to get into the next level down definition, mental strength really equates to you exercising and developing six core mental muscles. Those mental muscles are fortitude, confidence, boldness, decision-making, goal focus (your ability to stay focused on the goals and keep your organization focused on those goals), and messaging (your ability to stay positive-minded and engaged, even in the face of negativity, so you're sending a positive message to the troops).” (13:01 | Scott Mautz)    Links Learn more about Mike Horne on Linkedin Email Mike at mike@mike-horne.com Learn More About Executive and Organization Development with Mike Horne Twitter: https://twitter.com/mikehorneauthor  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mikehorneauthor/,  LinkedIn Mike's Newsletter: https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/6867258581922799617/,  Schedule a Discovery Call with Mike: https://calendly.com/mikehorne/15-minute-discovery-call-with-mike     Learn more about Scott Mautz: https://scottmautz.com/mentallystrong/  https://scottmautz.com/  https://www.linkedin.com/in/scottmautz/  https://www.facebook.com/ScottMautzPP     Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

Fill in the blank, a stay at home mom, an insurance agent, an event planner, an office custodian, an assistant, a waitress, a fast food drive through employee, a farmer, a lawn mower, a caretaker…. The list goes on and on. The world has gotten really good at making us believe that the things we do don't matter. IF we don't have a degree, or if we didn't get that promotion, or if we JUST stay at home with our kids, OR maybe you got the job-but it's not as important as you thought it sounded on paper. We have ALL felt like what we did, didn't matter at some point in our life. We have all said the words - “What's does it matter”  I will give you another scenario that I myself have personally experienced… “I don't want just a job - that job isn't that important. I don't want to spend my days doing something so insignificant.” But friend, can I just tell you that maybe that VERY job is the one that God wants to put you in to sanctify you in a way that you wouldn't be sanctified in otherwise.

Let's face it - the phrase 'I wish I could go to more meetings today' is not a sentiment commonly heard in the workplace. Meetings, despite their integral role, often draw attention for the wrong reasons. According to Otter.ai, remote work has led to a 70% increase in weekly meetings, with an additional 10% in meeting time, resulting in three extra meetings per week for employees. Atlassian adds that the average employee attends 62 meetings per month, with half of them considered a waste of time.  As the facilitator, you hold the key to transforming these statistics. Your meeting, your accountability. You shape how time is spent, how contributions are valued, and how focus is maintained.  Join Jennie & Craig as they unravel the intricacies of holding an effective meeting. Discover strategies, tips, and ideas to elevate your facilitation skills, ensuring meetings become a space where time flies, contributions are enthusiastic, and focus is unwavering. Follow SAIT Corporate Training on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/saitcorporatetraining/?viewAsMember=true Connect directly with Jennie and Craig on LinkedIn: Jennie: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenniengilbert/ Craig: https://www.linkedin.com/in/craighess/ Have burning questions about leadership that you'd like us to address?

Today matters. What you do today shapes who you will become tomorrow. The definition of love is worded so wonderfully in the Bible. How many times have you read 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 and thought that there might be some work to do on your own heart? We have all been there. In this episode Pastor Toby challenges us to make today matter. Be who God destined for you to be. Start today! Today Matters.

In Part 1 of "Make It Matter", Pastor Toby shares "Five S's that will help us remember to stop, rest and make today matter. You will get through the battle. God has something amazing to show you in your waiting. Don't carry the heavy burdens of uncontrollable situations. Matthew 11:28 says "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." Take the invitation to rest and make today MATTER! Stay #FaithStrong

In today's episode, I want to talk with you about you, your purpose, and why we write lyrics. For me, when it comes to writing – no matter if it's novels or lyrics – I use my words as the means to communicate with my audience and deliver a meaningful message that has the power to make an impact on them. And I guess, since you are here, you have the same desire. You want to be heard because you have something to say about life. And what you have to say matters.But communicating what we have to say in a way that matters to others isn't easy. We can't be preaching to the choir. We can't take the role of a parent and say: Don't do this because it leads to … We all know that no one listens if you preach it to them. On the other hand, if we are direct and say it bluntly, people might hear our words, but they will not care or take them seriously. We could also just write an academic paper and explain why our message is important … But who's ever going to read that bulky volume?That's why in today's episode, we talk about a storytelling principle that helps you deliver your message in a way that affects lives, changes minds, touches hearts, and makes an impact. Because what it all comes down to is that we, as songwriters, lyricists, and storytellers, have an amazing power to influence people's lives and make a positive, even life-changing, contribution.But that only works if we rely on one of the most basic and most important storytelling principles. What that is, well, you're about to find out.Podcast Overview:[00:02:25] Treat A Song Like An Experience[00:05:29] Why Stories Matter[00:11:12] The Five Commandments of Storytelling[00:15:16] Wrap up - 5 CommandmentsTo get your free gift: Uncover Irresistible Lyric Ideas go to lyrics.storiesinsongs.comTag me on Facebook: @LyricArtistsTag me on Instagram: @stories.in.songsSupport the show

Nothing matters until you make it matter, good or bad. It can be so easy to spiral and focus your energy on things that are frustrating, upsetting, or just generally keeping you down. On the flip side, if you want to prioritize something, you have to be super intentional about that and make sure that you're giving it the attention that it deserves. I'm trying to become a master of focusing my time and energy where it serves me best, enjoying my downtime, and being present with the people that I love. I'll always be a work in progress, but the more that I can let things go and hone in on what matters, the more I can live in alignment and reach my goals.    IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: Tips for staying present when it feels like there's an endless to-do list  What Chris and I like to do when we're feeling like our energy is being depleted  The importance of taking your attention away from things that drain you and moving it to something that fills you up  Examples of how to make your relationships matter and strengthen your connections    RESOURCES Sign up for The Spritz newsletter at litepink.com!

Have you ever felt your job was not that important and your impact not that great?? Do you ever wonder if you make a difference? Have you ever been so wrapped up in your task of the moment that you missed the specialness of that moment? Do you define success as the impact you make on others’ lives? Take the time, to make IT matter! On Today's Podcast of Living Life Like It Matters, it is ‘Story time with Mr. Black’. Today Mr. Black will share a story that is the reality in many people lives. As Leaders we must value people. We are in the People business, no matter, where our paycheck comes from. We must control our focus, and pay attention to what matters most, on a regular basis. Too many people miss the most important things in life, People, moments, and special moments with people. Robin Williams is quoted as saying. “Everyone you meet is fighting a battle you know nothing about. Be kind. Always.” Rule #1 about being a leader is It’s NOT about you. It is about those you get to impact in a positive, powerful, permanent way. One smile to a stranger can change their life. One compliment can improve someone’s day. One Taxi ride can bring closure to a long life. Enjoy today’s Story, Take the time, to make it matter!

Beth Kephart talks about WRITING MEMOIR, including various motivations for embarking on a memoir, and which might be considered unproductive or unhealthy (for example, for revenge). She discusses how writers can approach topics or episodes that involve actual people, both from a writing perspective and in terms of preparing those people for the experience of reading about themselves. And she talks about the market for memoir, and her experience across the full spectrum of publishing options—from the most well-established traditional houses to her own imprint. Beth Kephart is an award-winning teacher at the University of Pennsylvania. She was the 2013 Master Writing Teacher for National YoungArts, is a co-founder of Juncture Workshops, has delivered keynote addresses on the art of teaching, has led teach-the-teacher sessions, and has taught writers of all ages in a variety of settings. She has published two books on the teaching of memoir—HANDLING THE TRUTH and TELL THE TRUTH. MAKE IT MATTER.—and writes a monthly educational newsletter, Juncture Notes.
