Have you ever thought about the concept of baggage at work? I have a dear friend, Pam, that always tells me “Wherever you go, there you are.” If you don't do the lessons, you bring everything with you from job to job or company to company. You bring your habits, patterns, and mental and emotional baggage.The question that my guest, Tamara McLemore, and I chat about today is how can we release this baggage so we can take control of our careers?During my conversation with Tamara, we chatted about:How did Tamara become an accidental project managerWhat is Tamara's definition of corporate baggage?How can we drop our corporate baggage?How do we let go of roles that don't serve us such as “office mom”?What is Tamara's Project Management Certification and work with women all about?Here is more about Tamara:Tamara McLemore is the “Accidental Project Manager.” She has over 20 years of experience in tech, wireless, software application and infrastructure project management for the United States Federal Government, Airline & Travel, Banking & Mortgage, and Raw Material Industries leading and advising programs and projects upwards $150M in budget.And guess what? Tamara has a degree in Journalism. She was able to learn and master the art of Planning, Execution, Implementation and Risk Management. I've been working with amazing companies and individuals identifying that innate Project Management Strength and developing those talents into high-performance individuals that equate to high performing organizations.If the Brave Women at Work Podcast has helped you personally or professionally, please be share it with a friend, colleague, or family member.

When she left Facebook in 2020, she was leading a team of hundreds, as vice president of product design. Now the co-founder of Sundial, she takes questions from listeners who are struggling to manage their own team dynamics. She offers advice for when your employee is bossing around others on the team, and how to help an underperforming team member. Zhuo is the author of the book The Making of a Manager: What to Do When Everyone Looks to You. Key episode topics include: leadership, developing employees, leading teams, managing people.

One Stone Creative is a full-service agency that handles most of the non-recording work for the shows we produce, but the role of a podcast manager is such a new one, that we wanted to talk to someone who is specializing in it.The podcast manager is a somewhat more nebulous role, in part because it's so new in the industry, and in part, because the services they offer can vary so much—often they can provide strategic consultation, project management, freelancer management, and sometimes regular production activities like audio editing, asset creation and promotion.My guest today is Ted Cragg, a fellow Canadian who has been a podcast manager for several years, with a special emphasis on the travel podcasting space. He is also the host of the Travel the World Podcast, and an experienced audio editor.If you want to learn more about podcast managers and how they can help you achieve your business goals, listen to our conversation below, or continue reading the blog post!Tune in to the full episode to:Know your options for podcast productionUnderstand what podcast management entailsLearn how to choose a production option for your showPivoting to podcast managementKnow what to look for in a podcast managerHuman intervention in AI podcastingDon't forget to join us for our free monthly strategy calls on the third Thursday of every month!The different options for podcast productionWhen it comes to creating a podcast for your company, you've got a few options:Do it all in-house, either by yourself or with the help of a colleague or twoHire a full-service agency that will take on all or most of the non-recording workHire specific freelancers for specific jobs, like the editing or the promotionHire a podcast manager to drive the project forward on an ongoing basis.Podcasting In-HouseThis is when everything, from show development to production, guest booking to show notes to promotional materials is all done by you or members of your team.The pros include that it can be less expensive, sometimes by a large margin, than outsourcing some or all of the production work, and you'll be able to control every detail which I know is important for many businesses.For some companies, it's also best to keep production in-house if the show is deeply integrated with other business areas and with multiple teams - having all of the information and workflows accessible by the many different people who need them can make outsourcing a more daunting than tempting proposition.Cons - it's going to take a lot of your time, and that may or may not be a resource you have in abundant supply.Now, you can get a lot of time-savings with automation tools, and keeping your process and assets simple, but we've found that many companies that start in-house tend to want to hire a little help as soon as it becomes feasible.It also takes a lot of different skills: figuring out the strategic role of the podcast in your business is a different skill than editing the audio, which is a different skill than promoting episodes, which is a different skill than managing guest booking which is a different skill than SEO optimizing the notes, which is a different skill than project management… you get my drift.It's a lot of different skills, that can lead you to the door of our next production option, a full-service agency.Full-Service Podcast AgenciesThey are pretty much what they say on the tin - they'll handle all or most of your production process.Now, this can vary a bit from company to company, and if you're considering working with one, you should make sure to get very clear on exactly what is included, but most will do something like: take in your raw audio, do all the editing - both content and hygiene, write the show notes, create sharing assets, create a video version, schedule the episode for you, and drive the whole process so you don't have to think about anything other than talking to people.Some companies will do a little less, and others will do more like providing feedback, doing guest management, or even being live on your interviews capturing the recordings.Pros of working with companies like this are that the main management of the show is off your desk - it is a huge time savings. You also don't have to learn, or hire for specific skills like audio editing and show notes writing, you get to take advantage of a team of different subject matter experts working together.With the best companies, you can also get strategic support around how to leverage your podcast within your business, tracking the impact of the show, and providing feedback so that you're constantly improving your skills.Cons can include that it's the most expensive of the options - having a company take on the bulk of the work isn't cheap, and having the production process out of your hands also means - it's out of your hands: you're depending on other people to keep your release schedule, and that can be scary - and in some cases, disappointing.You also may or may not have your own dedicated account manager and other team members working on your show which can mean an inconsistent output.Hiring FreelancersIf going full-service is a bit of a stretch, or you have a really solid team with the interest and the bandwidth to take on the areas of their own expertise, then hiring a freelancer who specializes in one or two elements can be a great option.There are many highly skilled audio editors who just do audio that you can hire to take on that part of the show. The same is true of guest booking, social media management, writing tasks, and graphic design.The pros of hiring specific freelancers are that it tends to be more affordable than full service, and you are just adding the amount of skill to your own team that you really need, while fully maximizing your internal resources.On the other hand, a big part of working with freelancers is managing them and making sure that everything required from each provider at the right time can be quite a challenge.It also means that each individual contributor's bandwidth and situation has the potential to disrupt your workflow, which can be a little anxiety-provoking.And there is a professional who can help bridge that particular gap—the podcast manager.Understanding the podcast managerWhat is a podcast manager?A podcast manager is certainly a specialist when it comes to podcasting. You can kind of relate it to a virtual assistant or an online business manager, but someone who really is focused on podcasting and everything that goes into it.They understand the industry, probably they're probably very passionate about the industry. They inherently follow people and newsletters and these kinds of things to stay on top of it.And that's the kind of background and skill set that they're bringing to the role, is that they really understand how to make a good podcast and how to make successful ones, and especially how to sustain them too.What can they do for your business?If someone has a business and they're looking to start a podcast, it's a great idea to look for a podcast manager because they're kind of your go-to person who's going to help organize and keep you the host, the business owner, focused on what you need to do, doing it well, comparing it to other things, and putting it into context in relation because they have that expertise, so they may in turn, delegate things.It's certainly possible. There are a lot of podcast managers who delegate editing or maybe graphic design or the audio, videograms, and stuff like that. They may do that themselves as well. But in essence, they really are the project managers who are going to direct the project for the host.So the show is still the host's. They're the face and they're the voice of the show. It's the podcast manager who's the one behind the scenes with that focus on the project itself.The workflow of a podcast managerA lot of podcast managers usually start at the very beginning of the project before the podcast has even started. So there's kind of two phases.Phase 1There's the launch phase where you're really planning the show in itself. What are the objectives, who's the audience, what offers do you have and how are you going to deliver those?Thinking about content and making an episode plan, thinking at least a few weeks, if not a few months even. Planning the schedule: are you going to do this weekly or biweekly?Arranging the cover art, the music, the hosting, a website—all of these components that go into the launch.Phase 2You get into the regular recurring production of the episodes.So it is certainly possible podcast exists already. They've already done all that work. They've launched the show and now they're ready to hire a podcast manager to kind of take the reins, perhaps level up and improve the quality and just the workflow and the structure of it.When it comes down to basically putting and planning an episode itself, certainly if there's a guest involved, then you have those guests lined up and a lot of podcast managers, that's one of their tasks is to do the guest pitching.They will pitch people to come on the show. They may pitch the host in turn to be a guest on other shows. There are lots of different tasks that they can do. Then, of course, the recording itself is done.But if the podcast manager is in turn the editor, they're taking the files, they're putting everything together, they're giving it back to the host for a final pass, a review, and then it gets published.Usually, the podcast manager is the one who uploads the file, makes sure the RSS feed and all the technical stuff are working well, handles any bugs or glitches, and then they may certainly do the promotion as well, making those clips and other promotional things.So in any one episode, as we all know, there's a lot of work that goes into it.Having the podcast manager at least the one who oversees that project is crucial again, whether they do it all themselves or maybe they delegate other things, but it allows the host business owner to obviously focus on other things and really zero in on what their expertise is.What kinds of businesses would benefit more from a podcast manager?The small to medium-sized businesses, but fairly small.And the reason is really coming back to the very beginning of what makes a podcast manager different. It's the relationship. It has to be a good, strong relationship and you build into that over time.But the communication has to be there common vision where you feel comfortable bouncing ideas. And as a podcast manager, a big part of it, frankly, is keeping the hosts accountable and saying, what's your plan for the next episode? Or plans and stuff coming together. That's a good thing.It's a healthy, positive role because you're the one that's focused on it. The business owners got all kinds of things that they're doing. The podcast is a big part of it, but they have that person who's going to focus on this project itself and just be that second pair of ears is so crucial because there's someone else who really knows the business, who understands the message, what they're trying to do, and understands the podcast itself, who can then give that feedback and say, well, maybe we should cut this part.Or here's a good guest that you can have for sure and kind of just have that overall awareness of how it fits into the grand scheme of things, the message and the branding, and the appearance that you're making through the podcast.With that in mind, you can imagine if it's a really big company, for sure, they can have a podcast, but they would probably have a team. And it's a different scope, let's say, of the project.Podcast managers work well with smaller businesses, often online businesses where they're really going to have that relationship with the host.How to choose a production option for your podcastHere at One Stone Creative, we're an agency, we're a team of seven now. But the relationship is such an important thing and really getting integrated with someone else's systems—understanding their goals, being able to know enough about the business to be able to weigh in on whether something is appropriate or works.Ted Cragg:A lot of people, a lot of companies, they know they want a podcast for whatever reason. It could be because the other firms in their area are doing it. Could be because they're seeing the value that they love listening to their podcast in their industry.But of the different options that are available for producing. Let's talk a little bit more about how to make that decision. Because you've got like solo provider podcast managers, you've got agencies, you've got bigger companies that are more self serve, let's call them the productized podcasting services.What should people be thinking about or businesses be thinking about when they're making that kind of choice, other than, let's say we've established a good relationship with your point of contact.It's a fairly new role. I mean, I've been doing this for coming up on two years. It's very new. And part of our challenge as podcast managers is simply popularizing. The concept that making sure people know that this thing exists, that it's a specialized type of project manager, basically, who understands the industry because the tech changes so fast.And we're into this as managers. And I chose this because I've been podcasting myself. I enjoy it. I was already getting the newsletters, I was already following people and just learning about it. So it's a passion for me to then share that information and that's the type of thing that you're bringing as a podcast manager.And so if someone's looking for that specialist from the project, then that's what they should be getting, someone who really understands how things work and it makes them a little different.If you were to hire someone from in-house or from a different agency, those are the questions I would ask. I need someone to manage my podcast and help me produce it. So how long have they been doing it themselves? Do they understand how things work, the tech and the skills and the industry and all those things? And you may have someone in-house who just does it anyway because they're interested in their passion and maybe they can become your podcast manager.If you're looking outside of the house, though, or looking around, I mean, yeah, there are some agencies, I guess there are some of these websites where you can find people that know having their title. I'm a podcast manager. Often it's word of mouth and networking and Google search and stuff is certainly possible just to find the people, the managers that are out there and available.I think it often comes down to goals for a business. If someone's main reason for podcasting or their primary benefit from podcasting is really just having conversations with people, then kind of all of those extra details, although it doesn't necessarily matter as much as long as they're having those conversations on a regular consistent basis.And then any service provider who can reliably produce the outcome of your own scheduling work can be a really good fit. But yeah, having that more personal touch, especially if it is going to be like a really strong arm of your marketing as a small business.Pivoting from podcaster to podcast manager - Ted CraggInitially, when it comes down to it, it's really just kind of putting yourself out there and saying, I want to do this, I'm ready to do this.I took a program called the Podcast Manager Program by Lauren Wrighton and she trains people to do this. There's a really good network and community of podcast managers who help each other out.That helped with some of the kind of background and getting ready. At the end of the day, you start with one client and fill in some of that experience.In terms of the business and relationship side, I know a lot of the skills in podcasting because I've been doing it myself just for fun for about six years now, since 2017. So when it came to doing it, I was looking for a career change.I wanted to work online, I wanted to have my own business, et cetera. And this was something I knew how to do. I had the skills. I like audio editing and the whole podcast production flow.In the end, I knew that this was something he could do plus he also liked the variety.And that's a good point actually, because I know from my experience, and certainly for a lot of us, every client of course is different. Every relationship and every project is different.So I have clients often where I just do the audio editing and that's cool. It takes me an hour or two, a week let's say, and it's done and they do all the rest.And I certainly have other clients where it's the full scope and it's really digging deep into what their objectives are and what their show is going to be like and all that content planning, lots of communication, fairly regular meetings, and all that kind of stuff. I love doing that too.I wouldn't want to do that all the time either. I like having the variety, a little bit of both. And that's part of what's appealing about doing this.So it's really just kind of if someone's interested in becoming one, then if you already have that interest, for sure, in podcasts, you listen to them, maybe have one yourself, then there are opportunities because people really do need this kind of help.Ted Cragg on transitioning from a podcast manager to a podcast management agencyI might get to that. It's on stage, for sure. I mean, it's a whole other kettle of fish. I know. I'm just curious about your outlook and your way of thinking about it.The thing is, of course, this is not a passive income type job or business. I absolutely don't believe in passive income. I'm so tired of hearing about passive income.Fundamentally the job is very hands-on. It's time intensive and that's the nature of it. That's what I want. I want that relationship, obviously. Therefore, I've realized that I could only really have myself personally, maybe four or five clients at a time, unless there are a couple of others that are really quick things.But there's clearly a limit. If I want to expand my business, if I want to bring other people into that circle, then I would need partners, I would need to outsource and that kind of thing and basically become some kind of agency.And that's certainly possible down the road. One thing for me, as we all know, in online business and stuff, it's good to niche down generally, and you can do that in podcast management. There are podcast managers who really look for coaches, coaching businesses, let's say, and those are the people they work for.For me, my background is in travel and tourism. I love travel and I want to particularly look for people and businesses in the travel and tourism industry who want to start a podcast, of course, to talk about their business.Maybe they're a tour operator, a travel agency, maybe there's some kind of attraction. A podcast is great for telling those stories if they're serious about it if they have the budget, if they want to really see it, and if they have a business plan that this is not just kind of a passion project, but this Podcast is going to promote our offers.It's going to get our name and our recognition out there. They have the budget to hire someone like me and we can work together to really build this into something substantial. So that's where I've niched down.But what's neat about this, again, is that as much as I try to find clients in that area, the skills are the same. So I do have some clients who are coaches and who have other topics and fundamentally it's about editing their audio and just kind of giving them that support and direction.So flipping it around. Let's say someone's listening to this and they're thinking having this level of attention on the podcast is going to be really valuable.But we're not hiring right now, we're not hiring contractors, we're not hiring agencies, but I've got this team member who's got 10 hours free a week. What kind of skills or qualities would someone need to be able to do this in general and also particularly within the house as a kind of upskilling in their own industry?Turning an internal team member into a podcast managerThe biggest time-consuming thing certainly is the editing. AI is helping and I use AI services too, but they don't do the whole job.That might be like a first pass, a bit of an edit, and I still come through with my own eyes and ears to make sure it's good, but that helps speed things up. Regardless, the editing is the number one thing and from there, it's about all the other tasks.If the promotion, the little clips for sure, and writing show notes are a big one, you could have a blog that goes with your episodes too.So if you're doing it in-house, start with what the skills and interests of your existing team are of anyone on that team who's going to be interested in doing this and be able to kind of hit the ground running.There are ways to kind of work around it based on the resources that you have.The person who gets the podcast on their desk should be a strong project manager to start, they should have some tech aptitude or at least a willingness to learn and kind of comfort with getting used to it.Audio editing software typically has a pretty steep learning curve. Once you get it, you got it, but it's not easy to look at for the first time. And there should be at least some level of copy, an understanding of the marketing that's going on, and what's going to be important to communicate to listeners.If you've got someone on your team who has some extra time and those things, you can have an internal podcast manager.Red and green flags during podcast manager interviewsIt's tricky because it's a newer industry.So in terms of experience, you may have someone who really only has a few months of experience in podcast management, but you certainly want to ask about, well, what's their background beyond that?Do they understand the connection really between the marketing and the listener in terms of getting that message through and conversion? I mean, that's an interesting thing with podcasts, because it's not like YouTube or other things where it's easier to measure those metrics.So you want someone who really understands, at least has an idea of how to pursue that and how to improve it. And we're all working together on that, really, to improve the kind of engagement in podcasts.I think passion is really what comes across, especially in this day and age, this stage of this industry, because we may not have the experience because it's so new, but if you have the passion, the interest, you're keen to learn, you're keen to improve your skills, then you're on your way.Human intervention in AI podcast editingAnd we try almost every AI tool as it comes out. We try all of them just to be aware of what's going on. And some of them are really cool. Some of them have amazing functionality.I just tested Cast Magic last week, and it's rad. But the problem I find with all of them and that's the text ones and the audio ones, is that at least at the scale that we're working at, doing 15 OD shows the amount of editing and quality assurance.The time it takes to make sure that a weird little AI error doesn't slip through is basically equal to the time it takes us to just do things by hand. I just haven't found the time savings yet.Even though my favorite AI use right now is Adobe Enhance, being able to improve someone's room sound, has been really cool, but it still needs a full editing process by a human afterward.Ted Cragg on AI apps that legitimately save timeA lot of it comes down to the recording, the quality of the recording, and it's sad to say, but also the voices. I mean, I have a couple of clients. Either they're Francophones or they speak English with an accent, and the transcriptions and so on don't always pick up.I cannot handle a French Canadian accent. No way.So that's one thing. If you do have people, again, if you're the manager or just the audio editor, clients are sending your stuff. If it's clear audio, of course, if it's two people that they're on separate audio tracks, that's a good start to at least give the program the best chance to do its thing.But it's tricky with audio. I find that you always have to do a second pass. You might be able to edit a little bit. One thing I have gotten more into is transcription-based editing.So Descript is a good example of this. Even Riverside has started to do that in a few other places, but the cuts are so choppy.It's getting better, but it is choppy. And I resisted for a long time, but at least with the transcription here's, kind of my mindset is that if someone sends me like this big 75 minutes recording, and I know that we want a 45 minutes episode, so I'm going to have to cut out a lot.I'm talking big paragraphs, five, or eight minutes at a time, which is a lot. Yeah, if I have the transcription, I'll read through it and I know that I can cut this and cut that as a big, big paragraph.And that alone is going to save me, I don't know, at least 45 minutes of my own time, just skimming through to get down to at least something a little more manageable.Now it's like a 55-minute file, which I need to cut another 1015 minutes out. Descript is a good example. They take out these filler words, the uhms and the aahs, and things like that. You can set which ones to remove.They also have a thing where you can add a little gap clip so it's not too tight of a cut that you can't really fix or it's really finicky to fix.I'll often take the first pass from there into another digital audio workstation software and then do the micro clean up if it's a word that's really cut off, that just sounds just too abrupt, and things like that.So it's getting better. I'm kind of holding out. And that should help us with our workflow, for sure. In terms of speeding things up.We use Descript for transcripts and particularly useful for pulling audio and videograms. Really, really amazing for that. But I'll just see how their filler word removal is now.You know what I wish they would do, and maybe just someone from Descript will listen to this.

Julie Zhuo is the bestselling author of The Making of a Manager: What to do When Everyone Looks to You. She was also the first intern at Facebook when they had 100 employees and were just starting out as a company. She worked there for a total of 14 years and during her time there she became a manager and then ultimately the VP of Product Design.  Actually, it was because of her experience at Facebook and first becoming a manager very early on in her career that caused her to write her book. Her internship at Facebook was something she did while in college and then right after she graduated she took a full time job with the company. When she was asked to become a manager at the age of 25, she had had no prior training or management experience and she wasn’t exactly sure what she was supposed to do. But as the culture at Facebook was at that time, as a startup, employees all had to try new things and say yes to some things that took them out of their comfort zone. So Julie said yes to the position. Then she went to a bookstore to read up on the skills that managers need, how to lead people more experienced than she was, how to delegate, etc… But what she found was books directed at CEOs and senior level executives on very advanced concepts, when what she needed was the basics to start out with like how to lead a one on one meeting and how to motivate employees. So she wrote her own book on the subject later on in her career to help others in similar situations. The definition of a manager Julie shares that when she first started out as a manager she didn’t have a very clear definition of what a manager was. The only thing she had was a general idea of what her past managers and bosses had done in the past, which was mostly give feedback and tell her if she would be promoted or if there was something she could do better. And that is the picture she had in her mind for years until she became a leader herself and learned over the years that a manager shouldn’t just be a series of actions, but they should be someone who is focused on getting results from a group of people and doing whatever necessary to help them succeed.    Julie also believes there is a difference between a leader and a manager. She says, “Sometimes people use them interchangeably, but to me, they're quite different. To me, leadership is a quality or a trait. And I think all of us are, you know, can be leaders in certain contexts or can exhibit leadership traits. Being a leader just means that you are somebody that other people will listen to, and will follow. And you have that ability to influence and help organize a group of people towards doing something together. I think of a manager as a specific role, like it's a specific job function with a set of responsibilities and the major responsibility of a manager is you are trying to get a group of people to work together and to achieve some certain outcome, right? There's a reason why teams are formed. There's a reason why companies are formed, they're trying to aspire to, hit their mission or they're trying to hit a business goal or they're trying to do this and that and your job as a manager is to help this group of people hit that goal.” The word manager is descriptive of the role inside of the company, whereas leadership refers to qualities and traits people can have. Anyone can learn leadership qualities, but not everyone who has leadership qualities should necessarily be a manager. Everyone who is a manager should definitely have leadership qualities, though.  Common mistakes that new managers make Over her career Julie has not only experienced being a first time manager, but she has witnessed others experience it for the first time as well. And there are certain mistakes and pitfalls that a majority of managers make when first starting out.  The first one is feeling that as a manager you have to have all the answers. A lot of people have this feeling that if they are unsure about something, it’s a signal that they are not cut out for the role of a manager. But that’s not true. As Julie shares, as a manager you are going to feel uncomfortable or unprepared at times, and that’s okay. You are having those feelings because you are managing for the first time, things are new. A lot of the confidence and know-how will come with time and practice. Every manager goes through this when they first start out.  And even as you get experience, those feelings may be there when you have to address something new later on in your career, the difference is you will be better equipped to deal with new situations as you progress and you will develop the tools you need to deal with uncertainty.  The second mistake that new managers make is feeling like they need to know how to do the roles of their employees as well or better than they do. For example, when Julie moved to the manager role she realized she had to lead a team of designers who were more skilled at designing than she was. Because of that she felt like she had nothing to contribute and she felt inadequate at her job. But now she realizes that was incorrect.  Your job as a manager is not to be the best at the roles of your employees. If you are very skilled in one specific area, then maybe you should be in that role as an individual contributor. But as a manager it actually benefits you to have a group of people who are more talented than you are. Your job is to elevate those talents so that everyone on the team can be working at their best.  The third pitfall that new managers can encounter is a feeling of superiority, or getting a big head from a promotion. Julie says that at Facebook they had a way of making sure that didn’t happen. When people moved to a role of management it wasn’t called a promotion. Instead they used the word transition, to recognize that management was on a parallel path with any other role. Because there are multiple ways to move up in your career. Just because you don’t become a manager doesn’t mean you haven’t improved and succeeded. It’s just a different path.  How to overcome imposter syndrome Most of us have experienced imposter syndrome at some point, the feeling that happens when you don’t believe you are equipped to do something you are doing. When you doubt your ability and feel inadequate. Julie says she definitely felt this when she first became a manager and, in fact, she has felt it at times throughout her career even after gaining experience.  So how can we overcome imposter syndrome? Julie shares the following tips:  Recognize that you can ask for help. Don’t be afraid to reach out to people who have more experience in the area you feel doubt in. Learn from their expertise.  Don’t be afraid to admit that you are nervous or that you don’t know something. Everyone goes through this at times, and it doesn’t mean you’re an idiot. It means you’re human.  Turn to things that bring you energy and peace in those moments of anxiety and doubt. Go for a run, meditate, go out and see some friends, spend some time doing a hobby you enjoy, etc..This will help build your confidence back up before facing the issue head on.  The biggest difference between an average manager and a great manager Whether you are a brand new manager or you have been managing for 20+ years, there are certain traits and qualities that make a great manager stand out from average managers. First of all, Julie says great managers are able to get great outcomes from their teams over and over.  But there are three other things that Julie uses to judge if someone is a great manager. They are people, process, and purpose. The first is, how does the individual deal with people? How do they nurture their talent. Do they play to people’s strengths and are they making sure that they have the right people on the right problems. Great managers need to know how to let their people shine and excel.  The second thing that a great manager has is the ability to figure out the processes. That is how people work together in the context of a team. And the third thing is a manager has to know how to convey a company’s purpose to employees. Because as Julie says, you can have the best talent, but if they don’t know what they are working towards, you are not going to get their best work.  Your people need to know what they should be aspiring towards, what you are trying to achieve together, what success looks like for them as a team, etc... The first year of a manager Julie walked us through the first year of a manager in increments of the first day, the first week, the first month, and then the first year to help us to understand her recommendations for people just starting out in that role.  First, on day one of being a manager you should talk with your manager and make sure you understand what success looks like for your role. Have them help you plot out benchmarks that you should be hitting throughout your first year as a manager. It is critical that you know on day one what you're expected to do. Knowing the expectations ahead of time ensures you will do a great job versus a mediocre job.  For the first week in that new role, Julie suggests you focus on listening to your people. You need to get started on developing trust relationships with the people on your team. Talk to every single person on your team, get to know them as an individual. What are their hopes and dreams? Where do they want to go in their career? What do they think about the team? Do they have problems or friction with anyone on the team? What could the team do better?  This not only helps you to get to know people, but it helps employees feel like they have contributed, they feel like they have a bit of ownership in the team.  Moving on to month one, this should be an extension of what you are doing in week one. You have to continue to invest in the relationships with your people. By the end of month one you should have a good sense of how the team operates. Julie says that before you change anything, it is important to know what the situation is now, to begin with. Don’t just try to change things up as soon as you move into the role. Really, it’s going to be 3-6 months before you get a great sense of the people and the business.  At the end of year one what you should be looking for is, as a team, have we set clear goals? And of the goals you have set as a team, are you starting to see the fruits of those goals? You should be asking for constant feedback from day one, so that you know what is working and what needs to be adjusted. You should get feedback from your manager, your peers, and members of your team. You should also sit down with your manager at the end of the year and see if the expectations that were laid out were fulfilled. If not, figure out together what needs to be adjusted to do better in the next year.

Listen now to find out why you should think about signing a record deal, and how you can become appealing to a label! What you’ll learn: Why many bands want a record dealWhy you need to understand your own businessHow a band should manage their managerWhat benefits record labels should provide to the artists on their rosterHow to look for a good dealWhy a big advance is great, but should be approached with cautionHow to consider pros and cons of label offersHow record labels can give you great connections For full show notes visit https://thebetterbandbureau.com/35

Hi everyone! Welcome back to today's episode: How Leaders Can Uncover Their Blind Spots. We've all seen leaders who are fully aware of those blind spots, and we've seen leaders who are not aware of those blind spots and the impact that can have on their people and their organization. My guest is Jason Treu. He's an executive coach and best-selling author of Social Wealth, a how-to guide on building extraordinary business relationships. He's been a TEDx Speaker, where he debuted his team-building game, Cards Against Mundanity, and he himself is the host of the Executive Breakthroughs Podcast where CEOs, entrepreneurs and experts share their breakthroughs and breakdowns. In this episode, we also talk about: The importance of making time to build relationships, Psychological safety Asking for feedback Understanding the fundamental patterns sabotaging your success, and a whole lot more. Don't forget to subscribe and rate us on Apple Podcasts! Make Time to Build Team and Client Relationships I had to get everyone to buy-in on the team by getting to know them. Just trying to show a great plan or getting some results wasn't enough to motivate people. I really have to understand and learn a lot about them. The same thing happened on the client side. I had to build a lot of relationships with people, and then I had to fundamentally understand their business from top to bottom, so I not only could give them marketing advice, but also business advice. Patterns that sabotage your success In life, what happens is that you start learning as a kid and over time, you become an adult. Some of the things you learned as a child, no one tells you to stop learning over time. Your parents might tell you, “Don't talk to strangers” when you were ten because they don't want you to get into trouble and get abducted or something. But what they don't tell you when you're 18 and going off to college is you have to do that to meet people. What ends up happening is a lot of the things that end up helping you or keeping you safe are now sabotaging your success. One simple example is, let's say there's someone who's a poor listener and they're having problems. People around them are telling them they're not good listeners, they don't seem engaged, they don't care about them. When I go back to their childhood, they've lived with very large families. They grew up with quite a few siblings and they had to yell over their siblings to get their parents' attention. I was working with someone and they wanted to go to a school function back when they were in fifth grade. I was like, “What did you do?” and they were like, “Well, I elbowed my sister and brother really hard, simultaneously…and they fell off their chairs. And then I yelled across the table at my Mom and Dad and told them I needed them to go to some school function. And they said, “Yes.” Then I asked them, “Could you have gotten them to go any other way?” And they were like, “Probably not, because I wasn't that loud or overbearing, so it was really hard to get their attention with everyone around, so I was really worried I couldn't.” They learned at that point that listening wasn't helpful, and it would not have gotten them what they wanted. Well, they carried that trait through their entire career, and now it's killing their success and the people around them are frustrated and won't talk to them. Look Inward to Find Your Blind Spots Change and great things start inside of you, not out. I always say that that's the place you ultimately have to start from to learn, and that helps you learn about other people. If you don't, these blind spots will end up crushing you because you'll unable to see them but everyone around you will.   Links and Resources Connect with Jason: LinkedIn https://jasontreu.com Social Wealth: How to Build Extraordinary Relationships By Transforming the Way We Live, Love, Lead and Network by Jason Treu Cards Against Mundanity Insight: The Surprising Truth About How Others See Us, How We See Ourselves, and Why the Answers Matter More Than We Think by Tasha Eurich Project Aristotle The Fearless Organization: Creating Psychological Safety in the Workplace for Learning, Innovation, and Growth by Amy Edmondson The Happiness Advantage: The Seven Principles of Positive Psychology That Fuel Success and Performance at Work by Shawn Achor The Making of a Manager: What to Do When Everyone Looks to You by Julie Zhuo

To support the pod please check out my social media pages! Facebook - Instagram - Twitter - Show Home Page - Patreon Leader > Manager What does it mean to be a leader? How does the idea of the leader differ from the role of the manager? Too often in modern organizations these roles are conflated, stripping the idea of leadership of its meaning and value. I believe this is due to our inability to accept the leader as a finite and fleeting individual that is rare in the context of history. This has lead to the conflation of the roles of manager and leader, by deflating the inherent value and rarity present in the figure of the leader with the utterly attainable and "trainable " qualities present in the manager. Organizations desperate for leadership have lowered the proverbial bar, ironically making the search for real leaders that much more difficult. This is a spicy one, lets dig in!

Welcome to the show, everybody! Today we talk about how to supercharge your management skills with the co-founder of Fellow.app, Aydin Mirzaee. Aydin is a tech-loving entrepreneur with a passion for building great products, leadership and people. We also discuss: How Fellow.app started out, Learning how to trust and delegate tasks, What makes a great manager, What Fellow.app can do for managers, How managers can help a team produce 10x more without their involvement, and more. Click that play button to listen! Don't forget to subscribe and rate us on Apple Podcasts! A great leader trusts and delegates My perception of what a home run is in leadership changed over the course of time. When I was a lot younger, it was very results-focused. If the results are produced, who cares how the results were achieved? And if it meant that I was doing a lot of heavy lifting and didn't trust other people to do their parts – no matter how it got done, if the result was achieved, that's all that matters. That was my view, which was obviously very wrong and short-sighted. My view on what a home run is today is much more people-centric. Over the course of time, I clued in that I'm actually not really great at everything, and that other people can be a lot better than I am at most things. So it obviously makes sense to make sure that your team can pick up tasks and responsibilities. It will take them some time, but your job as a manager is to be there to give them feedback, so that they can improve very quickly, and eventually they will be better than you. Now, for me, a home run is when I'm not even involved in any team or project. What makes Follow.app such a great tool One of the things that a lot of people tend to ask us is, “Hey, you have this thing called Fellow and you're basically building it for managers. What management philosophy do you subscribe to? What makes a good manager? Are you following some McKinsey methodology, or is this based on some HBR study?” That's an important thing when people ask that question because they're like, “Well, if we're going to get people within our org to start using this thing, we probably should agree with what methodology you're proposing.” The thing is, Fellow is none of that. Fellow approaches all this stuff from a completely different approach. Our view on this was we wanted to build this tool that was super lightweight and all it did was it gave people the ability to do all the workflows that we think are best practices that most people should do. It just makes it super easy for everybody to do it, and do it most of the time. What makes a great manager? At a very basic level, we believe that managers should have one-on-ones and that they should be done regulary. We believe that they should get feedback, and often, on work that's being done, and in a timely manner. We believe that they should recognize employees and that should be done throughout the year so you can basically track these things over the course of time. We think that they should run effective meetings. We think that they should help prioritize the work that their team is working on and help set goals and help set a vision and communicate. We think that they should be responsible; not only hold themselves accountable, but also hold their team accountable for things that are agreed upon in group settings. The things we're talking about are not some methodology or anything like that. These are all things that we think all managers should do.   Links and Resources Connect with Aydin: LinkedIn | Twitter https://www.fellow.app/   The Making of a Manager: What to Do When Everyone Looks to You by Julie Zhuo   200 Questions for 1on1 The Art of the 1on1 Meeting eBook Our lessons from the "Making of a Manager"

This week I’d like to introduce you to Julie Zhuo. Julie is the VP of Product Design at Facebook and the author of the new book, The Making of a Manager: What To Do When Everyone Looks to You. Julie was also the first ever intern at Facebook in 2006. Yes, that’s right! And now she's VP of Product Design. It's her job to make Facebook look great. I first met Julie almost a year ago at the Watermark Conference for Women in Silicon Valley, an event where a bunch of smart, powerful, and successful women come together to brainstorm how to take over the world. I joined Julie for a panel about “managing up,” which is basically making the people ahead of you or above you, on the organizational chart, happier. During our conversation, I was excited to learn she was writing a book about managers and knew immediately I wanted to have her on the podcast as a guest when her book came out. And, well, here we are! On today's episode, Julie and I talk about the difference between managers and leaders, as well as organizational trust. Plus, we tackle a topic that we've tackled on the show before, but Julie has some pretty specific ideas around it; and that's feedback. So if you're interested in hearing about managers, leaders, and some nuanced ideas about feedback, then sit back and listen to this episode of Let’s Fix Work. In this episode, you’ll hear: What inspired Julie to write the book, “Making of a Manager”  Why people overcomplicate the world of management How and why the lines between manager and therapist seem to be blurred these days The difference between leadership and management  About the point in Julie’s career when she moved from manager to leader and how she knew she actually made the jump The three things that managers should be thinking about about every day How Julie’s book can be helpful for professionals who don't have access to management or leadership training; plus she answers the question, “Do you need to take classes in order to be a good manager?” About how our culture doesn't know how to give feedback, discerning the good from the bad, and what great feedback looks like Resources from this episode: The Making of a Manager: What to Do When Everyone Looks to You Power Players: the most important Facebook execs you've never heard of Julie Zhuo’s morning routine Julie Zhuo on LinkedIn Julie’s website Watermark Conference for Women Laurie on Instagram  Read more from Laurie Work with Laurie *** EPISODE CREDITS: If you like this podcast and are thinking of creating your own, consider talking to my producer, Danny Ozment.

Congratulations, you're a manager! After you pop the champagne, accept the shiny new title, and step into this thrilling next chapter of your career, the truth descends like a fog: you don't really know what you're doing. That's exactly how our latest guest, Julie Zhuo, felt when she became a rookie manager at the age of 25. It’s also why she felt compelled to write her first book, The Making of a Manager: What to Do When Everyone Looks to You. She stared at a long list of logistics, from hiring to firing, from meeting to messaging, from planning to pitching, and faced a thousand questions and uncertainties. How was she supposed to spin teamwork into value? What was the secret to leading with confidence in new and unexpected situations? Now, having managed dozens of teams spanning tens to hundreds of people, Julie knows the most important lesson of all: great managers are made, not born. If you care enough to be reading this, then you care enough to be a great manager. The Making of a Manager is a modern field guide packed everyday examples and transformative insights, including: *  How to tell a great manager from an average manager    *  When you should look past an awkward interview and hire someone anyway  *  How to build trust with your reports through not being a boss  *  Where to look when you lose faith and lack the answers Whether you're new to the job, a veteran leader, or looking to be promoted, this is the handbook you need to be the kind of manager you wish you had.
