My guest today is Rich Diviney. Rich is a retired Navy SEAL officer whose career spanned more than twenty years and included more than thirteen overseas deployments – eleven of which were to Iraq and Afghanistan. As the officer in charge of training for an elite Navy SEAL command, Rich spearheaded the creation of a directorate that fused physical, mental, and emotional disciplines. Since his retirement, Rich has worked as a speaker, facilitator, and consultant with the Chapman & CO. Leadership Institute and Simon Sinek Inc., speaking to and training more than five thousand business, athletic, and military leaders.

If there was one thing you think society should talk more about, what would it be? “The incredible power of not speaking at all - but instead listening.  But not just listening, empathetic listening.  We have such a capacity as humans to evolve, explore, and discover - and we do best when we come together and unify.  That's hard (if not impossible) to do if we can't listen and empathise with each other.”___________Have you ever wondered what Navy Seals really do? Not the stuff we see in the Hollywood blockbuster movies - but what makes them tick and how do you ever return to a ‘normal life' after living on the edge for so many years.

As the officer in charge of training for a specialised command, Rich was intimately involved in an extremely specialised SEAL selection process, which pared down a group of exceptional candidates to a small team of the most elite optimal performers.Rich also spearheaded the creation of a directorate that diffused physical, mental, and emotional disciplines. He led his small team to create the first-ever “Mind Gym” that helped special operators train their brains to perform faster, longer, and better in all environments—especially high-stress ones.After retiring from the Navy in 2017, Rich worked as a speaker, facilitator, and consultant with the Chapman & Co.

Some people excel, even when things get tough in situations of uncertainty and instability. Have you ever wondered how they do this? How is it possible to succeed, no matter what the circumstances? Today's guest went on a mission to understand what separates those who succeed from those who fail and how each one of us can work on developing our full potential, in order to be the greatest version of ourselves. Rich Diviney has over 20 years of experience as a Navy SEAL Officer. He completed more than 13 overseas deployments - 11 of which were to Iraq and Afghanistan, achieved multiple leadership positions, including the Commanding Officer of a Navy SEAL Command. Rich was intimately involved in the world-renowned SEAL selection process, which whittles exceptional candidates down to a small cadre of the most elite optimal performers. But Rich was often surprised by which recruits washed out and which succeeded. Someone could have all the right skills and still fail, while recruits he might have initially dismissed would prove to be top performers. The seemingly objective criteria weren't telling him what he most needed to know: Who had what it took to be part of the world's most elite military unit? Eventually, he cracked the code. Through years of observation, Rich learned to identify a successful recruit's core attributes, the innate traits for how a person performs as an individual and as part of a team. And this same methodology can be used by anyone in their personal or professional lives. Since his retirement in early 2017, Rich has worked as a speaker, facilitator, and consultant with the Chapman & Co. Leadership Institute and Simon Sinek Inc. Rich has taught leadership and optimal performance to more than five thousand business, athletic, and military leaders from organizations such as American Airlines, the San Francisco 49ers, Zoom, and Deloitte. He is also the author of the bestselling book https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08FQWPQ86/ (The Attributes: 25 Hidden Drivers of Optimal Performance. ) And today he shares his insights and strategies with us. In this episode with Rich Diviney, you'll learn: -What a "badass" really is, and Rich's personal history...03:44 -The process of identifying who's got what it takes and who doesn't...09:00 -Five categories of grit and successful team building...15:30 -How to use narcissism as a positive attribute...20:21 -Identifying the key attributes that will allow us to achieve great things...25:11 -The "open gates" technique to calm down the sympathetic nervous system...31:15 -The difference between discipline and self-discipline...33:50 -Core attributes of success...37:40 -What builds cohesion - and toxicity - in a team...41:45 -The traits of the achievers who finish the grueling SEAL training...47:12 -The biggest challenge of making a major life transition...53:05 -Rich's best personal practice...56:00 -And much more!

Believe me, you are not the only one who has believed that leadership is about a position. In today's episode my guest, Rich Diviney, states it is much more than that; leadership is about a set of attributes. In this episode of Fifth Dimensional Leadership, we look back at Rich Diviney's definition of the "attributes" of leadership. He explains why it's not about your role, but how you do it in such a way that positively impacts your people. Developing that attribute requires a test of courage, perseverance and resilience that only a true leader takes on and faces. Rich Diviney, author of The Attributes: 25 Hidden Drivers of Optimal Performance, and retired Navy SEAL commander with over 20+ years of experience.

Retired Navy Seal commander and human performance expert, Rich Diviney, shares the 25 attributes for optimal performance, while sprinkling in some seriously cool stories of his time as a Navy SEAL.  During his 20 + year career, Rich completed more than 13 overseas deployments.  As an officer in charge of training for a specialized command, he was involved in an extremely specialized SEAL selection process, weeding out extraordinary individuals down to just the elite few.  During this process, he discovered what set the chosen SEALs apart and what makes a person more successful and thrive in life, comes down to attributes.  True optimal performance goes beyond just skill.In his book, The Attributes:  25 Hidden Drivers of Optimal Performance, Diviney explains that skills are different than attributes.  Skills direct our behavior in known and specific environment.  They tell us how and when to do something but they're not inherent in us.  Skills do not tell us how we're going to show up in times of stress, challenge, and uncertainty.  It is in those times that we lean on our attributes.  Attributes dictate how we behave, react, and perform; how we are going to show up in life.  We are all born with all the attributes, but the difference in each one of us is the level of which we have each attribute.  The idea is to understand where you show up with the attributes and then understand inside of what context of life you're trying to operate or succeed.Since retiring from the Navy, Rich has worked as a speaker, facilitator, and consultant with the Chapman & Co Leadership Institute, Simon Sinek Inc., and is now founder and CEO of The Attributes Inc.  Currently Rich speaks and consults on leadership, high performing teams, assessment & selection, and optimal performance.  Rich has worked with thousands of businesses, athletic, and military leaders from organizations such as American Airlines, Meijer Inc., the San Francisco 49ers, Pegasystems, Zoom, and Deloitte.To Rich and all the brave men and women who serve or have served our country, THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE.Take the attribute assessments or connect with Rich:https://theattributes.com/Connect with Shanenn at Top Self:Website:  https://www.yourtopself.com/Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/yourtopselfFacebook:  https://www.facebook.com/yourtopself/Support the show (https://www.buymeacoffee.com/topself)

Doing nothing vs. choosing to not intervene React vs. response Planning for likely events – checklists  Standardized Work parallel — Mental capacity to deal with the unexpected Hospitals – sense of belonging – love for others Eric Dickson example – link to his episode of “Habitual Excellence“ Driven by love or driven by fear? — Fear is not sustainable “Humble Confidence” — can somebody become more humble? Or do the humble become more confident? Leadership under pressure? PROGRESSION AS A LEADER: Learning to fly Flying Teaching others to fly Leading from the Jumpseat Belonging – how can leaders create a sense of belonging?

Peter Docker is the co-author of the book, Find Your Why, and formerly a founding Igniter at Simon Sinek Inc. He draws on his 25-year career in the Royal Air Force, and over 14 years spent partnering with businesses around the world to inspire them to lead. Peter teaches people how to navigate the challenge of leadership. His latest book, Leading from the Jumpseat, delivers the message that leadership is about lifting people up, and giving them the space they need to lead!   Key Takeaways [2:15] Peter reveals an interesting fact about him when he was at the age of 42. [3:35] Peter tells the story behind the Jumpseat Leader when he was still flying with the Royal Air Force. [7:34] As a leader, handing over control is inevitable at some stage. Leading from the jumpseat is a mindset and approach which helps us to lead intentionally in that perspective. [10:20] Peter talks about the four parts of his book through metaphors of flying: Learning To Fly, Flying, Teaching Others To Fly, and Leading From The Jumpseat. [11:30] These stages are not meant to be a single progression. We can be at different stages in different aspects of our life. [15:25] It takes a lot of time to teach and develop people. Peter shares more analogies on how leaders can better manage in order to delegate. [16:25] Delegation is not abdication of responsibility. It only frees up space for leaders to focus on most things that only they have authority over. [17:30] In the short term, the pace will be slow but in the long term, delegating will allow your team to accelerate much more quickly. [22:20] Peter also shares his insights on how to teach followership as a leader. [23:15] Individualism and teamwork are not mutually exclusive. Peter explains why he thinks so. [28:40] As leaders, we can create opportunities for people to have a choice which is very important for their engagement. [29:50] Context vs. content. Peter tells a story about a young woman named Louise who challenged herself to climb the Island Peak of Nepal to illustrate why context is vital. [34:50] Learning and being kind to ourselves is very important in leadership. The willingness to get up every morning to do a little bit better goes a long way. [36:45] Exploring what is really important to us releases enormous energy once we are able to connect to it. Peter tells another story with his wife being involved in an accident as an example. [42:20] The promise we make to ourselves is actually about other people. Peter explains why it is so. [43:26] Peter shares his experience in the Iraq war back in 2003 to give more context in regards to the promise we keep for ourselves towards others. [45:00] Making a promise to yourself is more powerful when it is in service to others. [47:25] Listener challenge: Learn to lead when you don't know the answer.   Quotable Quotes “We all eventually give out control. And it's about preparing our people so they can take the lead when the time is right.” “We're right back down at the bottom again, trying to figure out how to fly. But that's the wonderful thing about it because it gives us the opportunity to maintain our humility to continue to learn and embrace the unknown.” “Delegation is not abdication and also it is not an excuse for micromanagement.” “We want to be involved in things; it's nice to be able to handle stuff and get stuff done. But every time we take on more things, the slower our team's progress becomes.” “If we are always the guy who has the answer, we become the constriction in the pipe.” “As a leader, what we can do is to shift the context so that people see what they are struggling against and see it instead as an opportunity to be taken on. And that then gives them the chance to really push themselves.”   Resources Mentioned Sponsored by: Darley.com Leadingfromthejumpseat.com Peter on Linkedin Peter on Twitter Peter on Instagram Grab Peter's books, Leading From The Jumpseat: How to Create Extraordinary Opportunities by Handing Over Control and Find Your Why: A Practical Guide for Discovering Purpose for You and Your Team

Peter Docker, co-author of Find Your Why and formerly a founding Igniter at Simon Sinek Inc., is passionate about enabling people to unlock their natural talents. He believes leadership is about lifting people up and giving them the space they need so that, when the time is right, they can take the lead. Drawing on his 25-year career in the Royal Air Force, and over 14 years spent partnering with businesses around the world, Peter's goal is to inspire others to Lead from the Jumpseat. Show Notes: Peter has been a negotiator and a teacher. Learn what brings us together as human beings. A position is against something. It has to be. A stand is for something. Standing for something is more powerful than a position against. One of the toughest leadership challenges is being a parent. What's my underlying commitment? Context gives meaning to content. If you shift the context, it brings a new meaning. Get clear on what you believe. What's really important to you? When you can go deeper you can help others join in with you if they believe in it too. When dealing with the unknown, they will be willing to stand up and help you figure it out. You can try to make people accountable for things, but only they can choose to take responsibility. They have to choose because they want to. If team members feel like they belong, they feel they can step up and take responsibility. Humble confidence is about love, not fear. Everything we do is driven by fear or love. Fear brings ego. When driven by love, we listen and think about others. Leading from a place of love encourages others to step up and help. Many people see not knowing the answer as a kind of threat. It's okay not to know. Peter Docker's Recharge Round What habit do you think has led to success in your life? Peter approaches things by always pushing himself and trying new things. He has a willingness to give it a go and learn. What's the simple positive action that you take each day to move forward to achieve your goals? He seeks out opportunities to show that he cares.

The world is going through a monumental change and every single day a new headline points us to a new challenge we need to overcome. As an optimist. I believe in the collective power of people working together as a team to solve the problems facing our businesses, our communities, and our global societies.  But, sometimes we need someone to look to. Someone to guide us. Someone who understands what it means to operate in the most difficult and challenging of environments and to come out the other side as proof that it can be done.  Today, I couldn't be more excited to welcome that someone – https://theattributes.com/author/ (Rich Diviney )as my guest. Rich is a former Navy Seal Commander.  When I look for an example of a team, this is the kind of team that always comes to mind. The kind of teams that have to operate together based on trust and optimal performance because it could literally mean the difference between life or death - or perhaps even worse than death. Rich completed more than twenty overseas deployments – 11 of which were to Iraq and Afghanistan. He guided specialized operational teams to train their brains to perform faster, longer and better in all environments. Since his retirement a few years ago he has trained over 5000 businesses, athletic and military leaders from the world's best-known organizations. Rich is also the author of the book https://theattributes.com/author/ (‘The Attributes' )which does an excellent job of helping his readers understand what makes people tick so to speak and how to uncover these attributes in all of us, whether it's sports, business, health and science, government or even your everyday relationships. More recently, Rich helped kick off https://www.makeshift.ca/ (MakeShift's) first all-company meeting in Calgary! It was an incredible experience and our team learned so much. On a personal note, and in full transparency, Rich is going to be joining me and the https://www.leaders2inspire.com/ (Leaders2Inspire) team in Mexico in November to facilitate optimal performance workshops for participants at the Leaders2inspire retreat. But today, Rich is here to help us all maximize our potential. Are you ready to Make the Shift? Let's go! About Rich Diviney: Rich draws upon 20+ years of experience as a Navy SEAL Officer where he completed more than 13 overseas deployments – 11 of which were to Iraq and Afghanistan. Through his career, he has achieved multiple leadership positions – to include the Commanding Officer of a Navy SEAL Command. Since retirement in early 2017, Rich has worked as a speaker, facilitator, and consultant with the https://www.ccoleadership.com/team/rich-diviney/ (Chapman & Co.

Rich Diviney - The Attributes: A Navy SEAL Commander on the hidden drivers of elite performance Skills are not enough. 90% of Navy SEAL recruits fail to pass the basic training. And 50% of Navy Seals fail training for specialised command. Today's guest, former Navy SEAL Commander and officer in charge of training for specialised command Rich Diviney asked why? Beneath skills there are hidden drivers of elite performance. These drivers are attributes like resilience, grit, and adaptability. But how do you develop attributes?I am a big believer that if you want to develop mastery in any area you need to learn it from those that perform that skill in the arena's where the stakes are the highest. And if you want to learn resilience, grit, adaptability, and leadership then it is hard to go past Rich Diviney.Today's guest Rich DivineyRich Diviney served in the US Navy for 20 years. He served in 13 overseas deployments including Iraq and Afghanistan. As a Navy SEAL, Rich served as the officer in charge of training for specialised command. In this role he went on to create the “Mind Gym”, a program of physical, mental, and emotional training designed to train Navy SEAL's brains to perform better in all environments, but particularly stressful environments.Since retiring from the Navy in 2017, Rich has worked as a consultant and speaker with Chapman & Co. Leadership Institute, Simon Sinek Inc, and Dumanis Enterprises.He has spoken to over five thousand leaders from the worlds of business, sport, and the military. He has spoken to leaders from organisations such as American Airlines, Deloitte, Zoom, and the San Francisco 49ers. On January 26, 2021, he released his first book “The Attributes: 25 Hidden Drivers of Optimal Performance”.“What skills don't tell us is how people are going to show up in stress, challenges and uncertainty. In those environments we lean on attributes.”“The secret to success is not necessarily to never quit, I'm going to quit as many times as I have to until I find the right way to do it.”“People decide whether or not they want to follow us. You cannot self-designate as a leader.Someone else decides whether you are someone to follow and that is always based on your behaviour.”“The quality of our lives is directly proportional to the quality of questions we ask ourselves on a consistent basis.”Website: https://theattributes.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rich_diviney/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/richdiviney/You'll learnWhy quitting is different to giving up - and how successful people use quitting to redirect their energy elsewhere. That perseverance is made up of the attributes of persistence, tenacity, and fortitude. Why the best leadership is mostly observing rather than micromanaging.The difference between skills and attributes. Skills are taught, however attributes are inherent and developed. Skills direct our behaviour in known situations. Attributes direct us in situations of stress and uncertainty.What attributes you should develop and how to develop them. That grit is made up of four attributes: courage, perseverance, adaptability, and resilience.Why courage is the ability to step into our fear - and how our brain rewards us with dopamine when we do.Freezing in a moment allows you to stop and think deliberately about what to do next and, unexpectedly, is a technique used by all Navy SEAL's.Sometimes you just need to move, and movement will reveal the next course of action.The different ways to recover from stress and trauma. And why sometimes you cannot do it alone.How to master the pivot. The one you don't see coming and the ones you choose.That elemental behaviour is made up of attributes and identities, and how identities shape our behaviour.The attributes of leadership: empathy, selflessness, decisiveness, authenticity, and accountability. That our minds are question answering machines - and by feeding it the right questions, we can guide ourselves to success. Including why, by default, we tend to get ourselves into a negative question loop when the road gets tough.The power of gratitude.Reference and links mentionedRich Diviney's new book, The Attributes: 25 Hidden Drivers of Optimal PerformanceThe Chapman InstituteSimon Sinek Inc.

Our official 200th Episode features a former Navy SEAL Commander, Rich Diviney. He completed more than 13 overseas deployments – 11 of which were to Iraq and Afghanistan. During his time as the officer in charge of training for a specialized command, he reworked the selection and assessment program to identify key performance attributes rather than just skills which allowed for a more effective and constructive explanation of the success and failure of the candidates. Most importantly, it allowed the command to put together the highest performing team possible. Additionally, he spearheaded the creation of a directorate that fused physical, mental, and emotional disciplines. He led his small team to create the first-ever “Mind Gym” that helped special operators train their brains to perform faster, longer, and better in all environments — especially high-stress ones. Since retirement in early 2017, Rich has worked as a speaker, facilitator, and consultant with the Chapman & Co. Leadership Institute and Simon Sinek Inc. Using the principles of this program, Rich has been able to work with more than five thousand business, athletic, and military leaders to teach leadership and optimal performance.  His most recent book, “The Attributes” (https://theattributes.com/) presents 25 of the most pertinent performance attributes to enlighten the reader to a possible approach to team selection and personal development.  Above all his accomplishments he is also a husband and a father 

The Attributes Do you have what it takes to succeed in any situation? According to a retired commander who ran training for Navy SEALs, true optimal performance goes beyond just skill. It’s all about THE ATTRIBUTES. In working with and selecting top special operators for decades, Diviney saw that beneath obvious skills are hidden drivers of performance and surprising core attributes. This is a fantastic conversation with great insight and one which I am sure you'll enjoy. Guest Bio. Rich Diviney is a retired Navy SEAL commander.

Former Navy SEAL Commander Rich Diviney on How to Face Your Fears, Build Resilience and Achieve Optimal Performance!!!   In this episode, a retired Navy SEAL commander is going to help you understand that getting through and managing fear, anxiety and stress in a healthy way is 100% possible and a must when it comes to living your best life. Overcoming challenges and doing hard things in your life will help you grow stronger mentally, physically and emotionally. It is also one of the best ways to develop true self-confidence.   This is a must listen for anyone looking to gain a deeper understanding of how face your fears practically and effectively, build resiliency and recover from setbacks quickly and efficiently. This is also for anyone who is looking to develop the attributes needed for optimal performance.   In a world that is full of uncertainty, this episode will show you why you need to accept the unknown that life brings and control what you can. After doing so, you can effectively get through life's difficulties by using attributes such as perseverance, resiliency, and courage. The cool thing is the more you exercise these so called attributes, the easier it is to use them. In doing this, it will lead you down a path filled with strength, fortitude, hope and ultimately achieving optimal performance. Much of this is discussed in my guest, Rich Diviney's new book, The Attributes: 25 Hidden Drivers of Optimal Performance.   Rich was intimately involved in the world-renowned SEAL selection process, which whittles exceptional candidates down to a small group of the most elite optimal performers. But Diviney was often surprised by which recruits washed out and which succeeded. Someone could have all the right skills and still fail, while recruits he might have initially dismissed would prove to be top performers. The answer was in better understanding ATTRIBUTES. In his new book, The Attributes, Diviney shows how to discover and develop our innate attributes for performing optimally and having long-term success.   He is a retired Navy SEAL commander. In a career spanning more than twenty years, he completed more than thirteen overseas deployments—eleven of which were to Iraq and Afghanistan. As the officer in charge of training for a specialized command, Diviney spearheaded the creation of a directorate that fused physical, mental, and emotional disciplines. He led his small team to create the first-ever “Mind Gym” that helped special operators train their brains to perform faster, longer, and better in all environments—especially high-stress ones.   Since his retirement in early 2017, Diviney has worked as a speaker, facilitator, and consultant with the Chapman & Co. Leadership Institute and Simon Sinek Inc. He's taught leadership and optimal performance to more than five thousand business, athletic, and military leaders from organizations such as American Airlines, Meijer Inc., the San Francisco 49ers, Pegasystems, Zoom, and Deloitte.   We talk about Rich's tips for managing anxiety and how to become more resilient. We discuss courage and why it's so important for getting through hard times. Rich also provides advice on how to recharge in a way so that you can recover quickly and efficiently and so much more!   Some of the topics discussed include:   Rich's backstory   What the whole notion of courage means and how it can really help people get through hard times.   Rich's tips on how to manage anxiety   The 3-foot world   Rich talking about "The Attributes"   The difference between perseverance and resilience   Tenacity and persistence   How to build a resiliency muscle   The importance of setting achieving goals and what it does to a person's mind   The difference between peak and optimal performance   Why having optimal performance is a must for success   Managing uncertainty, anxiety, and fear   The difference between self-discipline, and discipline   Rich's advice for people to recharge in a way that they're able to recover quickly and efficiently   The sympathetic and parasympathetic systems   The active visualization   The two of the attributes that Rich is still continuing to work on himself right now Takeaways:   Fear is really the combination of uncertainty and anxiety.   Focus on what you can control.   Skills are not inherent to our nature. We learn them.   Perseverance is more about the act of moving through a stress challenge, and resilience is more about the act of rebounding afterward.   Moving through stress challenges and uncertainty makes you stronger.   As human beings, our brains are question-answering machines.   The quality of our lives is directly proportional to the quality of questions we consistently ask ourselves.   In life, you can't necessarily plan peaks.   The sympathetic system is what fires off when you are in action.
