Send us a textLINKS for context: https://youtu.be/9vGQ1VvylS8?si=to_V9RELAhvz4Gnmhttps://www.reddit.com/r/ThatsInsane/s/rrCihdYAtKEver witnessed management decisions so shocking they leave you speechless? This episode dives into three workplace scenarios that'll make your jaw drop – and your blood boil.First, we discuss why water parks might be the worst team-building venue imaginable. As Warren shares from his experience managing one, "I've seen more tail today than I'd see in an aquarium" isn't exactly the feedback you want from your company outing. We break down why swimwear and colleagues simply don't mix, no matter how fun the slides might be.The conversation takes a serious turn as we analyze a viral confrontation between an Alaskan resort employee and management. When managers barged into employee housing demanding sick workers show up, one bartender decided to record the interaction. What follows is a masterclass in how NOT to handle workplace conflict – from false accusations to the dismissive "you're just a bartender" comment that ultimately ignited a termination. We unpack the racial microaggressions, power dynamics, and management failures that turned a fixable situation into a PR nightmare.Most disturbing is our final story about a 19-year-old special needs employee at Meijer grocery who was arrested for eating approximately $110 worth of food over three months. Rather than addressing this through coaching or compassionate conversation, management monitored him for months before involving police – a decision that speaks volumes about their values. As HR professionals, we're outraged by this callous approach to managing vulnerable employees.These stories highlight critical workplace issues around power, dignity, and proportional responses to problems. Whether you're in HR or management, these cautionary tales demonstrate why leading with empathy isn't just morally right – it's essential to functioning workplaces.Subscribe, share your thoughts, and join us in exploring the sometimes jaded world of human resources – where we say everything you're thinking but can't say out loud.Support the showWe want to hear from you.Text us or leave a voicemail (252) 564-9899‬email: feedback@jadedhr.comWant to:* Share a dumb employee question* Share a crazy story* Ask us a question* Share a best practice * Give us feedback Our Link Tree below has links to our social media sites, Patreon, Apple podcasts, Spotify & more.Please leave a review on your favorite podcast player and interact with us online!Linktree - https://linktr.ee/jadedhrFollow Cee Cee on IG - BoozyHR @ https://www.instagram.com/boozy_hr/

As the lines between democracy and monarchy blur, what kind of power are we living under—and what kind of authority do we trust?In this episode of Rebuilders, Mark, Liddy, and Daniel explore the seismic shifts happening in how power is exercised and understood in our time. From Max Weber's classic categories of authority to the rise of charismatic leaders like Donald Trump, they trace how the erosion of rational-legal power and the resurgence of personality-driven, almost “royal” rule are reshaping politics, culture, and even the church.Is Trump's style of leadership a symptom—or the beginning—of a deeper cultural shift? Are we witnessing a post-secular return to sacred forms of power? And what does it mean for Christians to live under the authority of a very different kind of king?

When it comes to our finances, we often wonder: Where does God's provision end and our responsibility begin? Should we simply wait and trust Him—or get to work and provide for ourselves?The truth is, it's not either-or. God calls us to both trust Him and participate in His provision. Not because He needs our help, but because He delights in working through us.Avoiding Two ExtremesYou've likely heard the phrase, “Let go and let God.” While it sounds spiritual, it can sometimes lead to passivity. On the other end of the spectrum, some of us live as if everything depends on us—hustling, stressing, and striving in our own strength.Scripture offers a better way: a life of faith that doesn't ignore work, and a life of work that doesn't ignore faith. God invites us into a partnership—trusting His sovereignty while faithfully engaging in our responsibilities.Paul writes in 2 Timothy 2:6, “It is the hard-working farmer who ought to have the first share of the crops.” The farmer can't make the rain fall or the seeds grow, yet he tills, plants, and harvests. He works diligently while depending entirely on God for the increase.In the same way, we can't control the economy or prevent every financial emergency—but we can make wise choices. By living below our means, avoiding debt, and giving generously, we acknowledge God as our Provider while faithfully stewarding what He entrusts to us.God Provides—We ParticipatePsalm 104:14 reminds us, “You cause the grass to grow for the livestock and plants for man to cultivate.” God causes the growth, yet invites us to cultivate it. His provision is not a one-sided transaction—it's a relationship.We see this throughout Scripture. When Jesus fed the 5,000, He didn't create food out of thin air. Instead, He multiplied a boy's simple lunch. God chooses to involve us, not because He lacks resources, but because He delights in using us to bless others.God's Word makes it clear that provision and work go hand in hand.Ephesians 4:28 urges, “Let the thief no longer steal, but rather let him labor… so that he may have something to share with anyone in need.”1 Thessalonians 4:11–12 calls us to “work with your hands… so that you may walk properly before outsiders and be dependent on no one.”Laziness is never encouraged, but neither is frantic self-reliance. Instead, Scripture calls us to wise diligence rooted in God's faithfulness.Stewardship means recognizing that everything belongs to God. We are not owners but managers, entrusted with His resources to reflect His character.And His provision is never just for us. Paul writes in 2 Corinthians 9:10–11, “He who supplies seed to the sower… will supply and multiply your seed for sowing… You will be enriched in every way to be generous in every way.”God enriches us so that generosity might overflow through us—producing thanksgiving to Him.Living in the Beautiful In-BetweenSo how do we balance trust in God's provision with active participation?Pray before you plan—inviting God into your financial goals.Work with diligence, not fear—resting in His faithfulness, not your performance.Give generously—not because God needs your money, but because He invites you to reflect His heart.Rest confidently—knowing God is at work even when you sleep.At the end of the day, God delights in using ordinary people with ordinary means to display His extraordinary grace. He is the Provider, and we have the privilege of being His participants.Provision, then, is not just about a paycheck—it's about a partnership. Let's stop asking whether it's “all up to us” or “all up to God” and embrace the beautiful in-between: trusting Him, working faithfully, and joining Him in the joy of provision.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:My wife and I inherited a house from a family member in another state. We'd like to keep it available for friends, family, or church members to use, rather than renting it out. What do you think about that approach?My wife and I are in our early 80s. Years ago, we used our Roth IRAs to pay off our home, allowing us to live debt-free in retirement. We use our IRA for charitable giving, but with the rising cost of living, I'm wondering if a reverse mortgage could be a smart tool. What's your advice?If I already have a living will, will my assets still need to go through the probate process?I've had a long-term care policy since 2018 with $400,000 in coverage, but I was told there's a six-month waiting period before it pays out. That seems long to me. Should I consider canceling the policy?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Wisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

Managers who grab an order and row with the team become an inspiration to the entire organization. Is it time to row with the team at your company?Support the show

Scaling teams inside matrixed organizations is rarely about speed alone. Shane Hughes, Head of Customer Success at LinkedIn and former Salesforce executive, argues that real growth comes from slowing down to coach with intention, aligning stakeholders early, and focusing relentlessly on customer value. In this conversation, he shares how leaders can avoid the trap of “chasing renewals” and instead build advocacy from the start by connecting adoption to measurable business outcomes.Shane also pulls from his experience leading teams that grew revenue from millions to billions to highlight what separates managers from true coaches. He explains why curiosity is the foundation of influence, how consistency compounds impact, and why high performers act more like consultants than communicators. Whether you're a CRO, frontline manager, or rep aiming to lead, his lessons offer a clear path to scaling without losing your edge.Key Takeaways1. Renewals are won early, not saved late – Retention isn't about heroics at the end of a contract; it's about shaping value in the first months after a deal closes.2. Adoption does not equal value – Usage is necessary but meaningless unless it connects to the customer's defined business outcomes.3. Curiosity drives advocacy – The best customer success leaders don't just communicate; they ask sharp questions that reframe problems and uncover hidden opportunities.4. Coaching beats chasing – Managers who focus on coaching their teams to think like consultants create consistent impact, while those who chase activity confuse motion with progress.5. Slow down to speed up – Scaling in matrixed organizations requires alignment and influence across stakeholders; patient lobbying accelerates outcomes later.6. Consistency compounds – Small, repeatable practices in coaching and customer engagement build long-term trust and measurable growth.7. Leaders must coach across, not just down – True leadership requires influencing peers and executives in addition to managing direct reports.

Why would a kind person start micromanaging people, even when they care deeply and want to do a good job? It happens more often than you might think! And it's often by accident.Managing people is a different job than being an Individual Contributor (IC). It requires a different mindset and skills -- "what got you here won't get you there," as the saying goes. Anyone can drift towards micromanaging. In today's episode, find out why this happens, and what you can do about it.**After the Episode**Enrollment in Communication Strategies for Managers:https://maven.com/kimnicol/communication-strategiesFor private coaching focused on your personal goals and professional development:https://kimnicol.com/Connect with me on LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/kimnicol/Become a more calm and confident leader:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://insighttimer.com/meditation-courses/mindfulness-for-managers-at-work⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

In today's episode, I'm going to cover a few of the several ways that managers or supervisors can learn a lot from looking at the skills that coaches possess.  A common issue across so many managers, supervisors, and bosses out there is, regardless of how qualified they are as managers, they struggle desperately with being good leaders. Being a good leader, creating an effective environment, and manifesting real teamwork in the workplace are skills not often really taught to new managers. But looking at how drastically different a team with a really excellent coach is managed versus a standard workplace team will show the importance of great leadership. So find out how you can start incorporating some of these coaching techniques in your workplace with the five C's of management!Show Notes: The Five C's of Management(https://www.leadersinstitute.com/five-cs-management/)

Too many frontline managers are promoted for hitting quota, then left to figure out leadership on their own. In this episode, Jeff Cummings, COO at LLC Attorney, shares a battle-tested coaching playbook built through 20+ years of leading high-growth teams. He challenges the “leadership lie” that there's no time for 1:1s and lays out a structured, repeatable framework that transforms one-on-ones from status updates into high-impact coaching sessions.Jeff walks through how to coach top performers without coddling them, how to use AI to scale personalized development, and why being a good manager has nothing to do with being in the deals. This episode is packed with practical guidance for CROs, RevOps, and enablement leaders looking to build durable revenue teams, starting with better coaching habits at the frontline.Key Takeaways1. The “Leadership Lie” is that there's no time for 1:1s.Jeff calls out the myth that leaders are too busy to coach; if you're too busy for your people, you're too busy to lead.2. One-on-ones should be structured, consistent, and focused on development, not deals.Effective 1:1s follow a repeatable process that goes beyond pipeline reviews to drive skill growth and accountability.3. Coaching should start with reflection by the rep.Asking “what went well?” first gives the rep ownership and builds a coaching culture grounded in self-awareness.4. Top performers need coaching, too, especially around behavior and professionalism.Being a high producer doesn't exempt someone from expectations; true leaders help reps round out their game.5. Managers must separate being in the action from building the team that drives the action.If you're still acting like a super rep, you're not creating leverage, and you're stunting team growth.6. Missed 1:1s should be rescheduled immediately, not skipped.Treat coaching like a customer meeting; canceling without rescheduling signals that people aren't the priority.7. AI can be used to scale coaching, not replace it.Jeff uses AI to track commitments, organize feedback, and personalize development, but the human connection stays central.8. Be fully present, no Slack, no inbox, no distractions.Undivided attention during coaching moments signals to reps that their development matters.9. Coaching isn't a task; it's a leadership mindset.Great leaders don't wait for permission to coach or train; they take ownership of their team's growth trajectory.10. Pay mentorship forward, build a legacy through people.Jeff credits his early mentors and reinforces that the best ROI in leadership comes from investing in others and teaching them to do the same.LinkedIn profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffcummings/

Most mobile home park owners are good-natured people who like to be helpful. But most park manager requests for “favors” need to be avoided at all costs. In this Mobile Home Park Mastery podcast we're going to review the typical manager requests, why they rarely work out well, and how to fend them off.

Disengaged. Doing the bare minimum. Quietly looking to make a move. These are all signs of being disengaged. It happens, and if you notice it in your team (or in yourself!) this episode will give you some clarity, perspective, and ideas.A recent Gallup survey identified four areas that contribute to low employee engagement numbers. They also listened to what employees say they want most from leadership.I recommend saving this one, and listening to it again towards the end of the year.**After the Episode**Read the article on low employee engagement here:https://www.gallup.com/workplace/692954/anemic-employee-engagement-points-leadership-challenges.aspxEnrollment is now open for the September cohort of Communication Strategies for Managers:https://maven.com/kimnicol/communication-strategiesRegister now and use promo code EARLYBIRD to save $75.For private coaching focused on your personal goals and leadership growth:https://kimnicol.com/Follow me on LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/kimnicol/

What if leadership isn't just about driving results today, but building tomorrow's leaders? Scott Burgmeyer, co-founder of the BecomeMore Group, introduces a simple equation: Performance = Potential – Interference. Instead of adding more strategies or tools, great leaders create breakthroughs by removing barriers — policies, processes, or even self-doubt — unlocking exponential growth.He emphasizes strategic thinking as a neglected but vital skill. In today's reactive culture, leaders must carve out time to reflect, starting with 10 minutes a week. By asking, What's working? What's not? What will I do differently? leaders can shift from busyness to clarity. Growth comes through the “squirm factor,” where discomfort fuels progress.Scott believes true leaders don't create followers, they create more leaders. By asking questions instead of always giving answers, they spark independence and transformation. His challenge: remove interferences, think deeply, embrace discomfort, and commit to developing leaders who develop leaders — because the future depends on it.

In this compelling episode of the Venture Capital Podcast, hosts Jon Bradshaw and Peter Harris welcome Matt Curtolo, an experienced private markets investor and advisor, and Joseph Alalou, co-founder and general partner of Daring Ventures. Together, they dive into the evolving landscape of emerging managers and micro venture funds, offering firsthand perspectives on how smaller funds are carving a niche in today's competitive venture ecosystem.Matt shares his journey through two decades of managing billions across venture, private equity, and real estate, and discusses how emerging managers can sharpen their strategy, positioning, and fundraising efforts to succeed in a crowded market. Joseph brings a unique and inspiring story from washing cars and community college to leading a VC fund focused on diverse, underdog founders with domain expertise and conviction bias.The conversation explores the definition and dynamics of micro VCs, the importance of authenticity and understanding one's “right to win,” and how these smaller funds differentiate themselves by moving beyond consensus deals to uncover unique alpha-generating opportunities. They discuss the challenges of fundraising in today's environment, including the long timelines, the critical role of operational rigor, and how early closings can build momentum and market credibility.Matt and Joseph also tackle how AI is reshaping fundraising and fund operations, emphasizing that technology is a critical tool but human intuition, relationships, and expertise remain irreplaceable. They reflect on the maturation of the venture ecosystem, the growing interest from large funds in emerging managers, and the fundamentally relational nature of VC investing.Listeners will gain practical advice and encouragement on navigating the complexities of emerging fund management, fundraising strategy, and embracing the future of venture capital amid rapid technological change. This episode is essential for aspiring fund managers, limited partners, and anyone interested in the future of micro VC and emerging manager innovation.Follow the PodcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/venturecapitalfm/Twitter: https://twitter.com/vcpodcastfmLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/venturecapitalfm/Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7BQimY8NJ6cr617lqtRr7N?si=ftylo2qHQiCgmT9dfloD_g&nd=1&dlsi=7b868f1b72094351Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/venture-capital/id1575351789Website: https://www.venturecapital.fm/Follow Jon BradshawLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mrbradshaw/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mrjonbradshaw/Twitter: https://twitter.com/mrjonbradshawFollow Peter HarrisLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/peterharris1Twitter: https://twitter.com/thevcstudentInstagram: https://instagram.com/shodanpeteYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@peterharris2812

Most leaders build fake cultures that drive away top talent.You've tried team building events, mission statements, and motivational posters. Yet your best people keep leaving, communication breaks down, and that "one person" drags everyone down. The truth? Most company cultures are performative theater that fools no one. Leaders who build thriving cultures understand that culture starts with inclusion, requires daily leadership modeling, and demands tough decisions about who stays and who goes.WHAT HIGH-PERFORMING LEADERS DO DIFFERENTLYStop These Culture Mistakes: ● Hiring for skills alone instead of cultural fit ● Talking about culture without defining it clearly ● Tolerating negative team members who poison the environment ● Leading from the corner office instead of the frontlines ● Creating policies without employee input or feedbackStart These Culture-Building Behaviors: ● Include your team in defining what culture looks like ● Model the exact behaviors you want to see daily ● Address culture problems immediately when they arise ● Promote from within to maintain cultural continuity ● Give employees a voice and respond to their feedback within 30 daysTIMESTAMPS: 0:00 - Episode Opening and Culture Focus Introduction 2:23 - What Does Intentional Culture Look Like? 2:50 - Culture Must Include Everybody or It Fails 3:10 - Define Culture Before You Can Build It 3:39 - Get Team Input to Create Buy-In 4:05 - Addressing Lack of Buy-In Head-On 4:44 - Finding Your Biggest Leadership Wins 5:10 - The Power of Team Accomplishments 5:37 - Magnifying Success Through Others 6:04 - Thriving Leader Program Introduction 7:38 - Hiring for Culture Over Skills 8:06 - The Resume vs Culture Fit Problem 8:26 - Promoting from Within Strategy 8:54 - High Expectations Drive Performance 9:46 - Navigating Multiple Cultures in Acquisitions 10:23 - Culture is What You DO Daily 10:39 - The 90/10 Rule: Your Weakest Link Defines Culture 11:12 - Moving People to Spread Culture 12:26 - Creating Safe Work Environments 13:12 - God, Family, Friends, Work Priority Order 14:07 - Polarity Creates Natural Selection 14:55 - High Retention Through Clear Values 15:33 - Annual Employee Feedback Tours 16:13 - 30-Day Response Commitment 17:18 - Leading from the Ground, Not the Corner OfficeFOR: ✓ Business owners struggling with employee retention ✓ Leaders inheriting teams with toxic culture problems ✓ Managers dealing with resistant team members ✓ Executives planning company acquisitions or mergers ✓ Entrepreneurs building their first leadership teamsDECISION POINT: Your culture is defined by your weakest link - fix it or lose your best people.This Week's Challenge: Identify one person or policy that contradicts your stated culture and create a plan to address it within 30 days.If you're ready to stop losing top talent to culture problems and want to build a team that actually wants to work together, email mark@themomentumcompany.com to learn about the Thriving Leader Program.

What if the reason someone has struggled at work for years isn't down to effort, ability, or attitude… …but because they've unknowingly been navigating the world with a neurodivergent brain? In this deeply honest and emotional conversation, I'm joined by Chris Hood from Neurobridge, who shares his personal experience of receiving an ADHD diagnosis in adulthood — and everything that came after. We talk openly about the emotional fallout: the initial relief of finally having an explanation, and the overwhelming grief, shame and identity confusion that followed. Chris shares what it feels like to realise you've been masking your true self for years and how difficult (and beautiful) the journey back to yourself can be. But this episode isn't just about the individual experience. It's also about what managers, leaders and organisations need to do differently to support neurodivergent colleagues, and why the typical “tick-box” approach to inclusion just doesn't cut it. Whether you're neurodivergent, a manager of people, or someone who simply wants to build a more human workplace, this conversation is full of insight, heart, and practical takeaways. ----more---- Key Takeaways Diagnosis doesn't bring instant clarity. It often opens the floodgates to grief, confusion, and decades of questions. Masking is survival. Many neurodivergent people spend years shaping themselves to fit in, often at the expense of their identity. Managers must lead with curiosity. Support isn't just legal compliance; it's about empathy, observation, and building trust. Workplaces thrive when inclusion is real. When people feel safe enough to be themselves, performance and wellbeing soar. ----more---- Key Moments The key moments in this episode are: 0:00:10 – What if ‘poor performance' is actually undiagnosed neurodivergence? 0:03:52 – Meet Chris Hood: From ADHD diagnosis to championing neuro-inclusion 0:07:21 – What ADHD really feels like, and how diagnosis lifts the fog 0:14:41 – The grief and shame of late diagnosis: “I didn't know who I was” 0:22:43 – Where shame begins: Abandoning yourself to fit in 0:27:49 – Unmasking isn't instant — it's a journey back to yourself 0:33:33 – What real support looks like (and why legal compliance isn't enough) 0:38:10 – “What support do you need?” is the wrong question — here's what to ask instead 0:42:21 – Chris's 3 tips for supporting late-diagnosed team members ----more---- Join The Conversation Find Andy Goram on LinkedIn here Listen to the Podcast on YouTube here Follow the Podcast on Instagram here Follow the Podcast on Twitter here Follow the Podcast on Facebook here Check out the Bizjuicer website here Get a free consultation with Andy here Check out the Bizjuicer blog here Download the podcast here ----more---- Useful Links Follow Chris Hood on LinkedIn here Find the Neurobridge website here ----more---- Full Episode Transcript Get the full transcript of the episode here
