We all have differing belief systems. Some belief systems develop over time, other belief systems derive from our environment, our interests, our upbringing, or we inherit them from family and never question those beliefs. Questioning a belief system implies a strong sense of self-awareness. We have belief systems in our personal lives, and we also build belief systems in our professional lives. Often these different belief systems align with one another, and sometimes they contradict each other.In leadership, having the self-awareness to question our own or our organization's belief systems is a strong factor in successful companies, because in doing so, these types of leaders become more open to change and transformation. Here to talk about leadership, belief systems, and what leads to successful outcomes in business is Marcia Daszko, a “PIVOT provocateur” who has helped guide many organizations out of crisis.Read more about Marcia:www.mdaszko.comPivot, Disrupt, Transform: How Leaders Beat the Odds and Survive

The buzz: Stress has been defined as a state of mental or emotional strain or tension resulting from adverse or very demanding circumstances – or as the non-specific response of the body to any demand for change. In her verywellmind.com article, When Stress Is Actually Good for You, Elizabeth Scott, MS, observes, “We rarely hear people say, ‘I'm really feeling stressed. Isn't that great?' But if we didn't have some stress in our lives—the ‘good stress' variety—we'd feel rudderless and unhappy. If we define stress as anything that alters our homeostasis, then good stress, in its many forms, is vital for a healthy life. Bad stress can even turn into good stress, and vice versa.” With ‘good stress', our pulse quickens, hormones surge…it keeps us feeling excited about life. Adrenaline junkies know that too much good stress can become bad. Acute or ‘bad stress' comes from quick surprises that need a response. Chronic stress comes from repeated stressors that feel inescapable and can result in negative physical and emotional health effects. Big questions: Is technology a major chronic stressor? Should you avoid all stress? Will talking about stress in the workplace increase employee engagement? If we talk with our children about stress, will we help them cope better as adults? Can we learn balanced responses to stress that will toughen our resilience to whatever life throws at us? We'll ask Colonel Deb Lewis, Alexey Katko, Marcia Daszko and Doug Krug for their take on The Future of Stress: Use It Or Lose It?

Forming her way of thinkingOne day, Marcia’s boss sent her to attend Dr. Edward Deming’s four-day seminar in San Diego. She got to interact with Dr. Deming even after the workshop. Dr. Deming became Marcia’s mentor and taught her his concepts. Over time, Marcia started questioning the status quo and what society had taught her was the way to build her life and be successful. She started questioning things and thinking more about what success truly meant to her. Lessons learnedIt’s not all about good grades and being the best employeeLet go of things like grades and performance appraisals. But more importantly, think about what you are trying to accomplish before you let all of those things get in your way. Andrew’s takeawaysBe wary of internal competitionInternal competition is one of the things that we think is good but takes away the joy of learning. This kills the massive potential we have because you just concentrate on hitting targets and numbers, not on self-improvement. Be an independent thinkerTrue independence is the independence of thinking. It doesn’t mean you have to oppose every idea, just form your independent way of thinking. Allow yourself to think and question things. Actionable adviceIt’s essential to question. But usehttps://myworstinvestmentever.com/ep256-andrew-pierce-stay-within-your-circle-of-competence-and-do-your-due-diligence/ ( strategic thinking and questioning). Don’t just go out and question everything for the heck of it; understand where you’re coming from and where you want to go.

These cause internal competition and dysfunctional work environments full of blame and finger-pointing 2. START thinking differently by learning about systems and statistical thinking.

TRANSFORM/Change what they do and how they lead to transform their organization and create amazing customer experiences.

In so many aspects of life and business, the traditional ways of doing things are gone, or will soon make you irrelevant. That’s why it’s essential in business today to pivot, disrupt and transform — three concepts that can be as scary as they are invigorating. Marcia Daszko joins me to break down what exactly that means for you and your company. Marcia is one of the world's leading business strategists who has worked with Fortune 500 corporations and private start-ups for over 20 years. She is also the author of the book Pivot, Disrupt, Transform: How Leaders Beat the Odds and Survive, which explores not only how to innovate, but also what to stop doing as leaders. So, why is business as usual no longer good enough? Marcia and I discuss why business cycles are getting shorter and shorter, and how companies can adapt to that; the answer is to pivot, disrupt and transform. These three concepts are interrelated, and companies need to do all three well in order to survive. Marcia shares some real-life examples, as well as her expertise on why leaders are crucial in creating a system for innovation. We also discuss why performance reviews and best practices hinder innovation, and why leaders shouldn’t be focusing on the financials, the metrics, and the arbitrary numerical goals if they really want to drive innovation.   If you are ready to: get buy-in from key decision makers on your next big idea be a high-impact, high-value member that ignites change foster a culture of innovation where everyone on your team is bringing innovative ideas that tackle challenges and seize opportunities… Join us on LaunchStreet — gotolaunchstreet.com   Mentioned in This Episode: Sponsor: Brillity Digital — Digital Presence Assessment Offer Marcia Daszko Marcia Daszko on LinkedIn Pivot, Disrupt, Transform: How Leaders Beat the Odds and Survive, by Marcia Daszko Marcia Daszko’s Q&A Column in the Silicon Valley Business Journal DoorDash GrubHub UberEats Nokia Free IQE Assessment

Contrary to what people think, Megan Macedo—consultant, speaker, and marketing strategist—believes that our professional and personal lives are not separate. Oftentimes, people take out the human aspect in business. To remind us how interconnected they are, Megan explores the human factor in all of this as she talks about psychology and marketing. As the Brené Brown of marketing, she helps people see beyond the stories that they often overlook and tell them. She talks about going into filming, consulting, and taking an artistic approach to business. Leadership transformation specialist, Marcia Daszko, in her book, Pivot, Disrupt, and Transform, says that 90% of startups will fail while more than 60% of original Fortune 500 organizations will no longer exist. This statistic alone is enough to keep those in business on their toes, working to move past the critical stage of failing. Through innovation and transformation, Marcia lays down a method that will help you overcome this. She gets down into the three kinds of changes, leadership, appraisals, developing your people, and more! Love the show?

How leaders behave directly impact the course of the business. They are the ones that lead the people in the team to work towards a common goal and succeed. As we know it, everyone has the capacity to become a leader. The only thing therefore is to be good at it and not the judging critique that blames others. One of the world's leading business strategists and catalyst for leadership and organizational transformation, Marcia Daszko, talks about how leaders beat the odds and survive with her book, Pivot, Disrupt, and Transform. Marcia gives the three-step process that tells people to stop focusing on the bottom line and performance appraisals, and shares how leaders should ask the right questions. On top of that, she talks about the foundational business strategies that will soon work towards improving and innovating to ultimately serve the customers.
