What does it feel like to be included? And how does it feel to be excluded? I'm not here today to talk about the business case for diversity, equity, inclusion, belonging. I'm here to talk about what it really means at the soul level and how each leader can take their own journey just like I've been on myself. So I've invited my favorite expert on the topic.

Just because your idea is innovative and meaningful doesn't mean it will be successful. In fact, what I've found is that the most successful ideas don't just push novel concepts into the world, instead they combine the new with the old. My guest today, Maureen Berkner Boyt - president of Moxie and creator of the Everyday Inclusion app, knows this better than anyone. Maureen and I talk about how an experience and realization she had about how people interact with their phones led to a business break-through. She also shares how she hacked existing human habits to deliver her new product idea, how the neuroscience of the brain helped her understand the best way to deliver her content in a way that would be sticky (aka create real behavior change), and why pivoting means momentum. She also opens up about how she knows when the people sitting on the other side of the table are open to innovation, or not.

The last two eighteen months have seen an explosion of interest in Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in employers across North America.  This has often been characterized by bold statements by corporations committing to creating greater equity both for employees and for the communities they operate in.But you can't do diversity by declaration - it requires concrete action by leaders and colleagues on a daily basis.  Given the workload most of us struggle with, it can seem daunting to many to have to now account for diversity in our everyday actions.Small wonder then that so many employees are choosing to become part of "The Great Resignation" driven in large part by a feeling that they no longer belong with their existing employer.It is this challenge that Maureen Berkner Boyt addresses through her company The Moxie Exchange,  that empowers everyone to become more inclusive and create a culture of belonging.In this conversation Maureen and I discuss the six fundamental skills leaders need to make inclusion a reality and drill a bit deeper into three of them - Listen Deeply, Stay Curious and Consciously Include. You'll hear how you can have the information you need to be inclusive at your fingertips when you need it rather than rely on your memory of a training course you may have taken a few months ago.You can find out more about Maureen and her company at https://themoxieexchange.com

With the combination of working from home, days blending together and this weird combo of living in Ground Hog day and warp speed, it's easy to see why most of feel as if the days just slip away from us.  It's Monday, and before you know it, it's Friday. It's March and before you know it, it's December. Without our usual benchmarks, keeping track of the days can be tough.  Everyday Innovator, Maureen Berkner Boyt, has a wonderful story about Brie cheese and a great tip for staying grounded when they days blend together. As an Instinctual Risk Taker (her unique Everyday Innovator style) Maureen figured out how to keep her calendar up-to-date in a more innovative way. I think you'll appreciate her simple yet powerful tip.  Mentioned In This Episode: Maureen Berkner Boyt The Moxie Exchange Everyday Innovator Style (IQE Assessment) Everyday Innovators Tribe

How can we as leaders build a robust team that thinks through ideas and solutions from all different perspectives? To do that, we really need to tap diversity of thinking on the team at the cognitive level, and that’s where vulnerability and openness about failure can come in.   In the second installation of this two-part interview series, Maureen Berkner Boyt, founder of the Moxie Exchange, and creator of the Everyday Inclusion App, interviews me about innovation and how it can help us build high-performing teams. We dive into what leaders do right and wrong in building a high-performing team, and how to sustain these efforts.   Innovation is not a straight line to success — I share insights about why building an innovative team is about thinking about the J curve all the time and anticipating what the response is going to look like for different people. I also share my favorite tools for unlocking innovation in your team — asking questions to improve, create, transform, disrupt, worsen. We also dig into some ways that leaders accidentally shut down innovation, and why rewarding behavior instead of focusing on success and failure is the key to unlocking the innovation on your team.   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: Innovation is Everybody’s Business: How to Ignite, Scale, and Sustain Innovation for Competitive Edge, by Tamara Ghandour (Pre-Order) Bulk Orders — Call or Email Inside LaunchStreet Podcast Episode 1897: “Tapping the power of innovation to build a high-performing team” Maureen “Mo” Berkner Boyt Moxie Exchange Micro-Learning Courses Everyday Inclusion App Rock Your Moxie: Power Moves for Women Leading the Way, by Maureen Berkner Boyt Disrupt HR Talk: Hack Your Biased Brain IQE Assessment Anthony Lambatos, Footers Catering Quad/Graphics  

Our teams are made up of diverse individuals with unique styles of innovating, but we often fail to leverage their strengths — a critical step in building a high-performing team that is ready to tackle challenges and produce better results. But why is tapping into the power of innovation so important, and how can we do it?   In this two-part interview series, Maureen Berkner Boyt, founder of the Moxie Exchange, and author of Rock Your Moxie: Power Moves for Women Leading the Way, interviews me about innovation. We discuss my “Steve story” — how I realized that everyone has an innovator within them, and why it’s so important for people to realize not only that they innovate, but also how they do it in a way that’s unique to them.   We dive into the difference between ‘creative’ and ‘innovative’ and explore why, while genius is rare, innovation is extremely common. Realizing that you’re innovative encourages innovation, and when everyone on the team recognizes the power that everyone else has, they begin to leverage each other in new and powerful ways. We also discuss why respect, trust, and understanding are the foundation for driving innovation, and how vulnerability ties into that.   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: Innovation is Everybody’s Business: How to Ignite, Scale, and Sustain Innovation for Competitive Edge, by Tamara Ghandour (Pre-Order) Bulk Orders — Call or EmailMaureen “Mo” Berkner Boyt Moxie Exchange Micro Learning Courses Everyday Inclusion App Rock Your Moxie: Power Moves for Women Leading the Way, by Maureen Berkner Boyt Disrupt HR Talk: Hack Your Bias Brain IQE AssessmentChef Boyardee Inside LaunchStreet Podcast Episode: Everyday Innovator Spotlight — How to Drive Company-Wide Innovation

Spine, spunk, resolve – or what our guest calls moxie. Some have had it from the beginning, most have to discover it. Maureen Berkner Boyt is the founder of MoxieExchange, a community of corporations committed to building inclusive workplaces and women committed to leadership development and professional growth.

Listen now as Maureen Berkner Boyt explains the many ways diversity and inclusion make companies richer!   Many years ago, the founder of The Moxie Exchange, Maureen (Mo) Berkner Boyt, walked out of yet another leadership meeting where she was the only woman present and thought, “Something has got to change.” So she changed it. Since then, her company Moxie has grown into a thriving community of corporations committed to building inclusive workplaces, as well as women committed to leadership development and professional growth. Its mission? To disrupt unconscious bias and create inclusive and diverse workplaces where talent can thrive. Listen! During this podcast, which is a follow-up to the one we did with Mo back in January 2018, "Lead with Moxie," we dig into the research she initiated with CEOs to see how they were implementing changes to increase both the diversity of their workforce and the inclusion of that diverse workforce. You can read the survey results, which are really quite fascinating, in her report: "The State of Diversity and Inclusion According to CEOS: What CEOs are Thinking and Doing About Diversity and Inclusion,"  by clicking here. What did Mo's diversity research find? That not much was happening. "A Strategy of Hope," we called her project. Eighty CEOs, both men and women (60% men and 40% women), responded to her questionnaire. All of them agreed that they had to do something to become more diverse and more inclusive. "Something," however, seemed to take the form of new policies and sexual harassment training. Many said they had responded to mini-crisis situations with those new policies and training, so they seemed to feel they were all set. But in reality, few of those CEOs were actually trying to transform the culture of their organizations. They just were not doing what they said they knew they had to do. They also were not benefiting from the rich ideas that can come from a diverse and inclusive workforce culture. Women leaders seem to be more open to inclusion but still not enough Women CEO respondents to Mo's survey seemed to be more positive about what they were actually doing to change the conversations, the ways meetings were held, and the values their organization was embracing around inclusion. However, it is one thing to hire a diverse workforce. It is quite another to build a culture where people listen to each other with a desire to understand their points of view and capitalize on their differences. At SAMC, our job is to help organizations change, particularly their culture. Diversity and inclusion are, at times, part of the problem that has to be addressed. It is not easy to solve it. The brain hates to change, as we know so well, but it really needs to change, particularly in this area. In our podcast, you'll learn how Mo helps companies actually bring about inclusion and diversity, not just talk about it Some of her methods that really bring about change: Peer mentoring programs Micro-learning courses A deep online library of resources and tools Through her company, The Moxie Exchange, Mo is elevating the conversation professional women are having, enabling them to learn, grow and step into their full potential. Moxie's unconscious bias workshops and resources for leadership teams are creating awareness and changing the way talent is resulting in inclusive workplaces. The face of leadership in the business world is truly beginning to change. Some background on Maureen Maureen "Mo" Berkner Boyt has spent over 25 years helping organizations grow by creating inclusive workplaces where talented people can thrive. Her passion is helping organizations tap into their reservoir of female leadership talent and bringing out the potential in those same female leaders. She truly believes that when women are fully represented at the executive level in corporate America, we will begin to solve large global problems in a meaningful way.  With a Masters Degree in Organizational Development, Mo is the author of the 5-book series "Rock Your Moxie: Power Moves for Women Leading the Way," as well as the host of a monthly online workshop series and podcast of the same name. She is also the Founder of The Moxie Exchange Movement and its girls' leadership development program, The Go Girl Project.  Mo has coached, trained and delivered high impact keynotes and workshops for thousands of leaders around the globe, as well as founded multiple successful businesses.

Whether you love it or hate it, diversity is an important aspect of our workplace culture. Today’s guest has some interesting insights on how diversity can actually make you money! Diversity can impact your business for the better and also improve the quality of it.   Maureen Berkner Boyt is the Founder of Moxie Exchange Movement, an organization that focuses on tackling the talent issue from both sides so that business owners can recruit and retain the best talent on the market. They also provide resources and systems for you to interrupt unconscious bias and create an inclusive workplace.   People often complain about how Millennials need to be treated extra specially, but the reality is, you should be treating all your employees that way. The only difference is that millennials demand it from their employers. People want to know your purpose, your values, and what you stand for. People want to make an impact in the world … everybody, not just the ‘millennials’.   It’s both smart to introduce diversity in your company culture and it’s also the right thing to do. When you have a diverse set of people working for you, everybody wins. Your teams are stronger, they’re smarter, and they innovate more effectively.   Maureen was serving on the board of a company that was in real trouble. If they didn’t make any changes soon, they’d go under. After a week in a room with leadership, she was more exhausted than usual. She realized she was the only woman in the room. She also realized that there should never be an ‘only’ in the room.   There are plenty of capable women and people of color, so why do businesses not promote them? Maureen dug deeper and realized that nobody is doing this on purpose. No one says they want ‘all white men’ on their board. In fact, companies are frustrated that they cannot keep or retain diverse sets of people despite mentorship and guidance.   Whether we like it or not, every single one of us is biased. It’s just the way our brain functions to ensure we are in a safe environment. Our unconscious biases are just mental shortcuts. If you want to interrupt your biases, question what you’re thinking whenever you have a thought about a person and their performance. Ask yourself why and dig deeper. Find out what could be true vs. not true and then go from there.   Interview Links: Moxieexchange.com Maureen on LinkedIn   Resources: Scaling Up for Business Growth Workshops: Take the first step to mastering the Rockefeller Habits by attending one of our workshops.

Maureen and I talked about diversity and including women in more top roles within the organization. Some of the questions I asked Maureen: What's stopping women from making it into leadership roles? Why do most diversity programs fail? What's the big deal about unconscious bias? How can women take control of their careers and thrive in business & life? How can we hack our biased brains? Main Take-Aways: It is possible to make significant changes in diversity to benefit women. We must take active steps to address our unconscious bias. Women must start feeling comfortable with taking on older men as sponsors.
