Why Your Business Still Runs Through You (And How to Change That) You've hired managers. You've built a successful business. And yet—you're still the one catching every mistake, handling every issue, and working way too many hours just to keep things running. Why? Because most entrepreneurs get stuck in a work culture instead of building a leadership ecosystem. And if you ever want your business to run without you—whether that's so you can finally take time off, pursue a new vision, or even sell—it's time to make the shift. In this episode, I'm breaking down the three phases of leadership every founder goes through—and why so many get trapped in phase two. Plus, I'm sharing the subtle but massive mindset shift that will change the way you lead (and get you out of the weeds for good). If you're ready to stop being the go-to fixer and start building a team that actually leads, this is the episode for you.

Are you feeling the tension between being the visionary leader your business needs and effectively managing your team? As the year comes to a close, do you find yourself reflecting on the ambitious goals you set—and wondering if you're giving yourself enough grace for what you did achieve? In this episode of Leadership is Feminine, host Kris Plachy invites you to examine the critical balance between leadership and management. Kris opens up the conversation with the striking statement: "A lot of people who start businesses are very good at leading because they're visionaries, they are motivating, they're inspiring... but maybe terrible at managing." And here's the issue that she has seen many visionaries experience. She identifies that while many entrepreneurs possess the vision and motivation, they often miss out on the crucial organization and structure that managerial skills bring to the table. Not neglecting those on the other end of the spectrum, Kris also brings to light the potential pitfalls of leaders who excel at managing but struggle to inspire and motivate their workforce. Often, she explains, these skilled managers tend to get too deep in the details and lose sight of the larger picture and purpose. Kris notes, "You have to understand the dynamics of both. How do I leverage the hearts and minds and hands of other people to achieve the result I want? And how do I envision that result in a way that helps others be excited, be a part of it, and it becomes integral to the culture?" As we wrap up the year, Kris challenges you to reflect on your own leadership and management skills, offering an invaluable perspective that just might lead to your breakthrough and take your business and your team to the next level.

Ever feel stuck in a financial rut? This week's guest, Ruth King, knows that struggle intimately. In this episode of Money Tales, Ruth opens up about how desperation to escape being broke only made things worse—the more she focused on not being broke, the more it consumed her. But everything changed when Ruth started writing 25 affirmations every morning. By shifting her mindset though these daily mantras toward success, and away from fear, Ruth began to see her financial reality transform. Ruth is well known as the “Profit and Wealth Guru.” She has a passion for helping businesses get and stay profitable utilizing the latest systems, processes and technology. Ruth holds an MBA in Finance from Georgia State University and Bachelor's and Master's Degrees in Chemical Engineering from Tufts University and the University of Pennsylvania, respectively. Ruth started the Decatur, Georgia branch of the Small Business Development Center in 1982.  She also started the Women's Entrepreneurial Center and taught a year-long course for women who wanted to start their own businesses.  This course was the foundation for one of the classes at the Women's Economic Development Authority in Atlanta, Georgia. More recently Ruth was the instructor for ICE, the Inner City Entrepreneur program in conjunction with the Small Business Administration. This 16-week course taught business owners with at least $400,000 in revenues (and many had over $1,000,000 in revenues) how to grow to the next level. A large part of the curriculum was aimed at improving the financial knowledge of the business owners enrolled in the course. Her latest book, 101 Dumb Financial Mistakes Business Owners Make and How to Avoid Them, joins 5 other award winning books: The Courage to be Profitable, Profit or Wealth?, The Ugly Truth about Cash and The Ugly Truth about Managing People. Ruth has also been interviewed by the Wall Street Journal Radio Network, the Big Biz Show, and many regional and local radio programs. She has appeared on MSNBC's It's Your Money program, Fox San Diego, and many other local television stations. Ruth has spoken internationally on financial topics for Kohler, Carrier Corporation, Safeguard (division of Deluxe), and many other corporations and national, state and local associations.

Welcome to episode #920 of Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast. Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast - Episode #920. Alan Eagle is a senior executive communications expert and co-author of the recently published book, Learned Excellence - Mental Disciplines For Leading And Winning From The World's Top Performers. The book delves into the nuances of mental toughness, the intricate balance between nature and nurture, and the pivotal role of effective communication in fostering leadership and excellence. Alan co-wrote the book with Eric Potterat. One of Eric's many accolades is that he served for 10 years as the psychologist for the US Navy SEALs, and was responsible for the mental assessment, selection, development, maintenance and enhancement programs for the SEALs. Alan is no slouch either. He worked for over 16 years as a Managing Director at Google, where he was also the speechwriter for influential Googlers like Eric Schmidt, Jonathan Rosenberg, Marissa Mayer, and Susan Wojcicki. Alan is also the co-author of How Google Works (with Eric Schmidt and Jonathan Rosenberg) and Trillion Dollar Coach - The Leadership Playbook of Silicon Valley's Bill Campbell (also with Schmidt and Jonathan). In a world increasingly polarized and challenging to navigate, Alan addresses how individuals and organizations can stay true to their core values, even as they grow and evolve. He highlights the crucial role of maintaining these values, not just for personal integrity but also for organizational coherence and success. Alan also explores the idea of managing people in an outcome-focused environment. He advocates for a process-oriented approach, emphasizing the journey over the destination. This perspective, he argues, is not just applicable at the corporate level but resonates universally across various levels and types of organizations. Alan offers profound insights into the realms of leadership, communication, and personal development. His experiences and perspectives provide valuable lessons on resilience, the pursuit of excellence, and the art of effective communication, essential for anyone looking to excel in today's dynamic world.

Takeaways: Mental toughness is essential for performing well under pressure, and it can be developed through practice and training. Excellence is not limited to high-stress situations. It can be achieved in everyday life. Values and identity play a crucial role in achieving excellence, both individually and within a team or organization. Leaders can create a culture of excellence by exemplifying the principles of learned excellence and fostering open communication and trust. In a polarized world, it is important to focus on shared values and create an inclusive environment that respects diverse perspectives.  Core values should be upheld even as a company grows and faces new challenges. Focusing on the process rather than just the outcome leads to better results. Process is a universal truth that can be applied at any level and in any organization. Compelling communications are about understanding what the audience is interested in.

This idea came from the realization that the coaching queries I receive from listeners often have common themes.My hope is that recording and sharing a coaching call like this demonstrates how the frameworks are applied in real conversations and possibly helps others with similar situations. Naturally, privacy is paramount, so we've anonymized the content and received permission from the caller to ensure no personal or sensitive information is disclosed. In today's episode, we discuss:Strategies for presenting your individual contributor (IC) experience during career advancement interviews.How to map the complexities you are solving in your current role into specific phrases that hook a recruiter or a future hiring managerAvoiding over selling your experience and landing in a sub-optimal role, focused on org-building vs. product-buildingExploring how far an IC can travel within a company, and how to ultimately become an executive Timestamps:(00:00) Introduction and welcome to the podcast(00:57) Introducing the format of this episode(04:08) Context ahead of the coaching call(06:40) How to frame your experience as an IC when interviewing for the next step in your career.(08:25) Nikhyl's follow-up questions(09:11) Why the caller left Microsoft(11:17) Nikhyl's thoughts and initial reaction to the caller's situation(12:22) Identifying if you have a product ambiguity or team ambiguity problem(15:10) Nikhyl's thoughts on how to frame the caller's experience when interviewing(16:08) Nikhyl's thoughts on the types of companies suitable for the caller(19:34) How to find suitable companies based on your management experience(23:13) How to navigate questions around your management experience when your current role is an IC(28:19) How to navigate people managing anxiety(29:52) Can ICs build a lasting career?(33:17) Conversation conclusion and final thoughts(36:06) Episode conclusion Where to find Nikhyl:TwitterLinkedIn Where to find The Skip Podcast:WebsiteYouTubeTikTokSpotifyApple Podcasts Don't forget to subscribe to The Skip to hear Nikhyl and other executives teach unique and timely career lessons.
