Ruth is the author of The Success Factor: Developing the Mindset and Skillset for Peak Business Performance*. In this rebroadcast, Ruth and I discussed how leaders can genuinely connect with (and retain) their top performers. We explored the difference these employees make in organizations and what's unique about how they approach work and their careers. Ruth suggested a number of practical steps to engage high performers genuinely to develop them well and benefit the entire organization. Key Points High achievers can produce up to 400 percent more than the average employee. Promotions, diplomas, and awards may be starting points for high performers, but they are not ending points. Leading high performers well requires you to align with their intrinsic motivation. Offer high performers opportunities for exposure with visibility to senior leadership, strengths assignments, and decision-making. Provide autonomy to high performers. For them, the chase is as exciting as the win. They fear not trying more than failing. Recognize that internal professional development programs may not be sufficient for the demands of high performers. Support external opportunities they identify and connect with them during and after those experiences to further their learning (and yours).

In this week's Fierce Factor Podcast episode I'm going to share key insights into what has been the key to sustainable peak performance in some of the most high growth businesses I've coached, and for myself! Peak performance means having the ability to operate efficiently with speed and agility while simultaneously allowing our inputs to grow fruitful dividends over time. As a former collegiate athlete the younger version of myself, I think my perspective about peak performance was distorted. In fact, I would have scoffed at the idea that time away from my sport would be a catalyst or let alone a minor contributor to my peak performance as a soccer player. But as I look back at the bigger picture I can see things from a new lens. Here's the main idea: the key to sustainable peak performance isn't about the performance at all- it's about setting up an environment where your business can grow and thrive. That includes creating open space and time to think and plan to bring our best selves into the game of execution. It means surrounding ourselves with the right people who will uplift and support us versus staffing a team of employees, partners, and vendors who drain our energy and business's resources. This week I'd like to share five critical reframes that will keep you “in the game” of sustainable business growth.

I'm going to take a guess that most of us--pretty much all of us--would love to be hugely successful in our chosen fields. Unfortunately, there was no class on success in school. In fact, if anything, we learned how to be “good enough” but generally, not exceptional. And if such a class existed, we would have learned what my guest has studied at the deepest and highest levels. Dr. Ruth Gotian wrote a book I wish I'd read decades ago called The Success Factor: Developing the Mindset and Skillset for Peak Business Performance. I loved the book and I'm not alone. Countless thought leaders you likely know and love have praised her book including SuperPsyched guest and Duke Business School professor, Dorie Clark, who said, “Ruth Gotian has reverse-engineered the path to success, based on her research with extreme high achievers, and offers useful tools and strategies which will give you a giant leap forward on your own path to greatness." Beautifully stated, Dorie! So, listen in as Ruth unpacks the science of success, and what it takes to achieve at the highest levels.

We discuss several tactics that most leaders can use to strengthen existing networks. Plus, we examine the mindsets that tend to lead to success in professional relationships, in spite of busy schedules.

Reach out within 24 hours, again in 7 days, and also at 30 days. Almost always there is a way you can add value to another person, even if they are at the top of professional game. Find that way to help. When you create content on social media, you emerge as one of the 1% of professionals who choose to do this. Give without expectation of anything in return.

I'd like to begin this episode by acknowledging the land that I am learning and living on is the traditional un-ceded, un-surrendered territory of the Anishnaabeg Algonquin People. Most leaders are, by their very nature, high achievers. And this is because leaders, especially new and emerging leaders, have a tendency to see a problem or challenge and want to attack it with the ferocity of a lion hunting in the wild.The advantage of this intense drive is that these leaders are extremely motivated, possess a high level of perseverance, have a strong personal and professional foundation, and are constantly learning from their experiences.And it's the highest of achievers, with years of experience, that can effectively balance performing all of these traits at the same time.The question then becomes, “How can emerging leaders learn to simultaneously harness and use these traits?” Well, I have good news for you, in this episode, you'll hear from Dr. Ruth Gotian, author of “The Success Factor: Developing the Mindset and Skillset for Peak Business Performance.” Dr. Gotian will offer insight and perspective from high achievers such as astronauts, Olympic champions, and Nobel Laureates, using their experiences to help emerging leaders operate at their peak performance level.Trench Leadership: A Podcast From the Front is humbled to have been listed in the Top 20 for Best Canadian Leadership-themed podcasts in 2021.

Dr. Ruth Gotian is one of the most interesting women I have ever gotten to know. I could tell you about her extraordinary academic and professional accomplishments, and you might agree with me, but I am not even referring to that. What really strikes me is how she describes her grandmother and the profound impact their relationship has had on her life. Even though they were two generations apart, Ruth shared that she and her grandmother were like sisters. Her grandmother was a pharmacist, having attended Columbia University's pharmacy school as one of 13 women in a class with 300 men. Ruth described her as “...this five foot tall with heels powerhouse. And she is the one who taught me how to stand up for what you believe in, while still looking like a lady.” Drawn to her values of achievement, family, and community, they talked every day. Ruth didn't realize the extent to which her grandmother was a role model until she was in her 40s. Today, Ruth is the Chief Learning Officer and Assistant Professor of Education in Anesthesiology and former Assistant Dean of Mentoring and Executive Director of the Mentoring Academy at Weill Cornell Medicine. In 2021, she was selected as one of 30 people worldwide to be named to the Thinkers50 Radar List, dubbed the Oscars of management thinking, and by August, was shortlisted as the top eight emerging management thinkers in the world. In addition to publishing in academic journals, Ruth is a regular contributor to Forbes and Psychology Today where she writes about ‘optimizing success'. Her research is about the mindset and skillset of peak performers, including Nobel laureates, astronauts, and Olympic champions. Her book, The Success Factor: Developing the Mindset and Skillset for Peak Business Performance just came out in January 2022. In this week's Work From The Inside Out podcast, learn more about Ruth's journey: Ruth discovered through her research that all peak performers have four things in common, the first one being that they are intrinsically motivated; there's a fire from within why they do what they do, they're not doing it for external validation or promotion. She has been hailed by the journal Nature and Columbia University as an expert in mentorship and leadership development.

The Success Factor: Developing the Mindset and Skillset for Peak Business Performance by Ruth Gotian A distinguished Harvard Business School professor offers a compelling reassessment and defense of purpose as a management ethos, documenting the vast performance gains and social benefits that become possible when firms manage to get purpose right. Few business topics have aroused more skepticism in recent years than the notion of corporate purpose, and for good reason. Too many companies deploy purpose, or a reason for being, as a promotional vehicle to make themselves feel virtuous and to look good to the outside world. Some have only foggy ideas about what purpose is and conflate it with strategy and other concepts like “mission,” “vision,” and “values.” Even well-intentioned leaders don't understand purpose's full potential and engage half-heartedly and superficially with it. Outsiders spot this and become cynical about companies and the broader capitalist endeavor. Having conducted extensive field research, Ranjay Gulati reveals the fatal mistakes leaders unwittingly make when attempting to implement a reason for being. Moreover, he shows how companies can embed purpose much more deeply than they currently do, delivering impressive performance benefits that reward customers, suppliers, employees, shareholders, and communities alike. To get purpose right, leaders must fundamentally change not only how they execute it but also how they conceive of and relate to it. They must practice what Gulati calls deep purpose, furthering each organization's reason for being more intensely, thoughtfully, and comprehensively than ever before. In this authoritative, accessible, and inspiring guide, Gulati takes readers inside some of the world's most purposeful companies to understand the secrets to their successes. He explores how leaders can pursue purpose more deeply by navigating the inevitable tradeoffs more deliberately and effectively to balance between short- and long-term value; building purpose more systematically into every key organizational function to mobilize stakeholders and enhance performance; updating organizations to foster more autonomy and collaboration, which in turn allow individual employees to work more purposefully; using powerful storytelling to communicate a reason for being, arousing emotions and building a community of inspired and committed stakeholders; and building cultures that don't merely support purpose, but also allow employees to link the corporate purpose to their own personal reasons for being. As Gulati argues, a deeper engagement with purpose holds the key not merely to the well-being of individual companies but also to humanity's future. With capitalism under siege and relatively low levels of trust in business, purpose can serve as a radically new operating system for the enterprise, enhancing performance while also delivering meaningful benefits to society. It's the kind of inspired thinking that businesses—and the rest of us—urgently need.
Success has a different meaning for each of us. But the thing that unites all of our definitions of success is that we should set a goal and achieve it to consider ourselves successful. So, how do we do this? Ruth Gotian is here on the show today to explain how. Dr. Ruth Gotian is the Chief Learning Officer and Assistant Professor of Education in Anesthesiology and author of The Success Factor: Developing the Mindset and Skillset for Peak Business Performance. At the age of 43, she attended school to get a doctorate on success and wrote the book The Success Factor in the middle of the pandemic, while working full time. Ruth will go over the four elements of success which are: intrinsic motivation, perseverance, a strong foundation that is constantly being reinforced, and continuous learning through informal means. We will also discuss what she means when she says, “No, is a not yet” and “Being busy vs. being productive.” To learn more about Ruth, click on the links below: Passion Audit: https://www.ruthgotian.com/passionaudit Website- https://www.ruthgotian.com/about Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/ruthgotian/ Book - The Success Factor: Developing the Mindset and Skillset for Peak Business Performance To learn more about my services and to stay connected, visit me at: Website: Advocate to Win Instagram: @imheatherhansen Sign up for your 15 Minute consultation below:https://calendly.com/advocatetowin/15min Also, don't forget to Subscribe to the Advocate with Elegance FREE private podcast here: https://view.flodesk.com/pages/613921e87accb4c0210201c5
This week on The Business Couch with Dr. Yishai, I had Dr. Ruth Gotian, Chief Learning Officer and Assistant Professor of Education in Anesthesiology at Weil Cornell Medicine, and an expert in mentorship and leadership development, holding multiple awards. She interviews the most successful people of our generation including Nobel laureates, astronauts, CEOs, and Olympic Champions to pick apart and learn from their habits and practices to optimize your own success.Dr. Gotain is a regular contributor to top publications like Forbes, Psychology Today, Nature, and Scientific American, which underscores her passion and obsession for top performance, which has recently culminated in writing her new book: “The Success Factor: Developing the Mindset and Skillset for Peak Business Performance.”If you haven't yet, go back and listen to episodes 169 and 170 if you want to learn about high performance and the story and lessons for how Dr. Gotian became obsessed with high performance, leadership development, lessons and stories along the way, and of course her research on the 4 puzzle pieces that fit together in the most successful high performers with takeaways you can start implementing immediately. At the end of our conversation, Dr. Gotian shared an observation about perfectionism being a moving target, about the relationship between perfectionism, procrastination, and paralysis. She the asked me for my solution to how we can stop getting caught in a cycle of chasing perfectionism, procrastinating because it is perpetually elusive, and getting paralyzed as a result. So today, you'll hear me talk all about perfectionism, procrastination, and paralysis. You'll hear me define, deconstruct, and then rebuild an understanding of those processes that can flip them from problematic to propelling you forward.
