Let me tell you about my fascinating chat with Margie Oleson. As an executive coach with a Ph.D. in organizational development, Margie has a wealth of insights on building high-performing teams. In our discussion, Margie shares practical strategies leaders can use to foster alignment, clarity, and productivity within their organizations. A key takeaway? Effective communication is critical - leaders need to constantly reinforce vision and direction to get everyone moving in sync.

Self-awareness, collaboration ability, and communication skills - these matter more than tenure! And we dive into best practices for managing change. Margie has an interesting perspective - leaders don't need to make everyone happy, just productive! By tapping into people's natural motivation and hardwiring for growth, leaders can guide teams through uncertainty. Margie's advice is grounded and actionable. If you lead people or want to build a cohesive team, have a listen. Then check the notes where I've summarized key insights and linked to Margie's site for free team assessments.

Last week's Purple Patch Podcast discussed how organizational effectiveness maximizes the talent and hard work of high performers. Organizational effectiveness, which includes planning, organization, and prioritization, can help remove mental clutter, provide control, and ultimately lead to faster goal achievement. However, it seems that only a small percentage of the show's listeners currently have a habitual practice to drive effectiveness and manage competing demands. Based on feedback we received from the audience, it seems that most people find it difficult to plan their nutrition and hydration effectively. Whether you're an athlete striving to achieve optimal performance in sports or an individual looking to enhance your daily performance at work and in life, the nutrition aspect of your journey can be daunting. Figuring out when and how to fuel your body to meet life's demands and your athletic goals can be overwhelming. Knowing what, how, and when to eat may be challenging, especially for those who are always on the go and have multiple competing demands. On this week's podcast, IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon discusses how to improve your eating habits by applying organizational effectiveness. He breaks down the process to help you avoid common phrases like "Diet" and "Weight Loss", and explains how to educate yourself on the right nutrition for your body and how to plan your meals throughout the day. Matt also shares resources that are available to you aimed at simplifying and customizing your nutrition and eating habits to fit your life, wherever it may take you.

Tallahassee has a long-running list of assets and accomplishments, but there's one that should make the whole community proud. Florida's Capital City, as of last year, is home to the #1 Public HBCU in the country: Florida A&M University. U.S. News and World Reports awarded FAMU this top position as well as ranking them 103rd of all public universities, a 13-spot jump from the previous year.  In 2022, Florida A&M University launched a five-year strategic plan, ‘Boldly Striking', with a goal to elevate performance and position FAMU to become a top 100 public institution. They set ambitious objectives through Student Success, Academic Excellence, Leveraging the Brand, Long-Term Fiscal Health and Sustainability, and Organizational Effectiveness and Transformation, with a plan to exceed all expectations. With application numbers setting new records each year, it's clear the word of Florida A&M University's achievements has already started to spread.  On this week's episode of the Tallahassee Business Podcast sponsored by MillCreek Financial Consultants, School of Business and Industry Dean and Chamber Board Member, Dr. Shawnta Friday-Stroud joins us to update us on the continued success and goals for a transformative future.

She's held leadership positions ranging from NPI Program Manager to VP of Program Management & Organizational Effectiveness for a Xerox Parc spinoff, and has helped companies from startups to Global 1000 successfully grow and – more importantly - SCALE.
