In this episode of the Remarkable Leadership Podcast, Victor Prince and Kevin take you on a journey along the Camino Way. The Camino de Santiago is a series of ancient trails across Spain. This was once a spiritual route and now often used by hiking enthusiasts, Victor spent a month hiking the trail as he had the time and the desire. He did not expect to write a book about his adventure and yet the trail gave him time to focus on the 7 values pilgrims are asked to follow while on the trail and how those values can help in work and life off the Camino.
Our guest today is Mike Figliuolo, a McKinsey alum and West Point graduate. Mike is the founder and Managing Director of ThoughtLeadersLLC, which provides training to corporations that is inspired by the types of internal training that consultants receive at McKinsey and other top firms. He is also the author of three books One Piece of Paper: The Simple Approach to Powerful, Personal Leadership The Elegant Pitch: Create a Compelling Recommendation, Build Broad Support, and Get it Approved Lead Inside the Box: How Smart Leaders Guide Their Teams to Exceptional Results, which Mike co-authored with Victor Prince. I heard about Mike’s firm from several Umbrex members, who have helped deliver some training sessions for Mike, and I recognized his name because Mike was the very first person to interview me when I applied to McKinsey, seventeen years ago. So it was nice to reconnect. In this episode, Mike gives an overview of his most popular courses and talks through lessons learned he has had in building a training firm. Lesson 1 – somewhat counterintuitive - don’t customize your training! I like the metaphor he uses to explain why: you need to be at the baseline or at the net. Mike shares the business model of how the fees get split four ways each time a session is delivered: one share for the person who wrote the course; one share for the person who sold that particular session; one person who delivered the session; and one share for the house. Do take a look at his firm’s website: thought leaders llc.com Mike is happy to write a check to consultants who help him develop new business, so if know some clients that could benefit from his firm’s services, he’d love to hear from you.
Victor Prince Spend Your Time Where It is Most Valuable Managers must not be all things to all people. In fact, successful leaders are making deliberate choices each day about who needs to be on their team and who they should be investing time in. While it’s not uncommon for a manager to want to spend equal time with all team members, that isn’t a wise choice. Think of your time as an investment toward the result of achieving goals. While it seems natural to want to spend more time with those who are struggling and allow those who are having success to go off and do it, that thinking is backwards. By spending time with the ones who are producing the greatest results, a leader can expand success exponentially and achieve even greater results. If you are struggling with the many demands on your time, this conversation can be helpful toward making choices to invest your time wisely.
