And if you're not serving people, that means that when you talk to them about sales, they feel sold to.” “If somebody is open to the ideas of compassion and empathy in the way you treat your people, it is the key to financial success.” “Gratitude is one of the most important things that you can offer to your people.” “All of life is about relationships. And if you don't know how to handle those, I don't care how successful you think you are in business. You'll be astronomically better at it when you learn how to get better at relationships.” “All great coaches are being coached.” “One of the great things about coaches is that what we help people do is we help them get to where they need to be, not necessarily where they want to be.” “Great leaders are able to understand the people that they lead and help them get better, help them have more success. When they're able to do that, they have relationships. And relationships are really what drives whatever you're leading.” “Do the right thing. And the right thing is going to happen to you.” “You will learn something from every person you encounter.” “All relationships are a risk, but they are never a waste.” BOOKS MENTIONED: Relational Intelligence: The People Skills You Need for the Life of Purpose You Want by Dharius Daniels (https://a.co/d/0djVsiyl) Leadership Books by John Maxwell and Brene Brown PODCAST MENTIONED: The Mind Your Business Podcast with James Wedmore USEFUL RESOURCES: https://wadeathomas.com https://aimtowinllc.com https://www.instagram.com/_wade_thomas/ https://www.facebook.com/AimtoWinFB/ https://x.com/wadethomasok From the Heart: Achieve Epic Results Through Building a Heart-Based Culture of Compassion and Empathy - https://a.co/d/edlUZme CONNECT WITH JOHN Website - https://thejohnhulen.com Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/johnhulen Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/johnhulen Twitter - https://www.twitter.com/johnhulen LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnhulen YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLX_NchE8lisC4NL2GciIWA EPISODE CREDITS Intro and Outro music provided by Jeff Scheetz - https://jeffscheetz.com/

Our next guest is the author of “From the Heart: Achieving Epic Results Through Building a Heart-Based Culture of Compassion and Empathy”. For over two decades, Wade Thomas has served as a strategic talent executive who guides leaders to develop and shape organizations from the perspective of high-performance management coupled with compassion and empathy. In episode 330 of the Fraternity Foodie Podcast, we find out why Wade chose Stetson University, what are the different types of entrepreneurs out there, what was the biggest business mistake Wade made, what is heart-based leadership, how students can make an impact as a leader, how we can lead amongst so much uncertainty around us, what skills a leader should possess, the biggest myth about business success, and what new things we will learn from reading Wade's book. Enjoy!
Author, Coach, Founder and CEO, of Aim to Win, Wade Thomas has over 25 years of professional experience in large and small business leadership, business strategy, and individual development. With over 20 years of professional experience in executive human resources, leadership development, and business strategies, Wade has experienced firsthand what makes businesses work. Wade embraces uniqueness while challenging the status quo. He uses imagination to discover better ways to build entrepreneurs' businesses and to help them make a difference. Wade believes that growth comes from experimentation, and having the courage to accept and learn from failure. He believes in being nimble enough to change direction quickly when needed to make the most of new opportunities. Wade believes that not only do compassion and empathy have a place in the business world but that they are integral parts of long term success. In this episode we discuss: [6:17] - Having a growth mindset approach to you business can create change in your business practice, as Wade explains. [8:32] - So what is ‘the leadership gap' and how does it contribute to business. How strong can your business be if your team feel that you care about them? [10:24] - Being busy in the day-to-day running of your practice, Wade explains how you can develop your team so that they feel more emotionally connected to the business. [13:18] - The abilities of your team are only limited by the ability to grow your self first. Self Leadership is the process of YOU getting better … and in-turn the business and your team will grow. [16:46] - Empathy is the deepest level of understanding and will allow you to lead your team. In addition, your team ‘see' empathy, they see that you care, and they will go the extra mile and help you take your business to new levels of growth. [19:08] - Having empathy and compassion isn't about being a doormat … it's about stretching and pushing people, it's about making hard decisions. One of the most compassionate things you can do for your team is to help them to reach their potential. People don't reach their own potential if you give them easy goals and give them feedback that they don't want to hear. [22:09] - How does ‘courage' apply when in a leadership position? [24:05] - So we know it's good to be vulnerable as a leader, so when is ‘too much' vulnerability not as effective? If we share ‘too much' can it still be effective? [27:35] - Some of the key learnings Wade has from over 25 years in leadership in many different sized organisations.

We're all leaders. Even if you don't own a business, many people lead families, Little League teams, volunteer organizations, and all sorts of other groups–and leadership has changed drastically in the last 40 years. Unfortunately, leadership isn't something they teach in school, and the consequences are enormous. Today's guest, Wade Thomas, has spent 20 years in the corporate world as the head of human resources for a large company–and he says 70% of American employees are unhappy in their jobs because of negative management. This is why Wade launched Aim to Win, where he focuses on helping others lead with compassion and empathy. In this episode, Wade returns to the podcast to talk about how we can be better leaders in the post-COVID world. We discuss how to listen to people and turn a profit, some of the powerful lessons Wade learned over the course of his 20 years in corporate America, and how to take an empathetic and compassionate approach to leadership roles. In this podcast interview, you'll learn: Why winning at all costs and being empathetic are not mutually exclusive. The main reasons employees dislike the people they're working for–and what makes it so hard for leaders to show that they care. While there isn't a class on compassion and empathy–it can be taught alongside time management, strategy, accountability, and other aspects of management. How to help develop younger employees into the leaders they have the potential to become. Three things you can do right now to improve your relationships with the people you manage.

57. Wade Thomas - Heart-Based Culture “When you handle that at a heart-based way, we help learn, help them learn from mistake. You move past the finger, pointing to what do we learn? That's where we really get to innovation because we can really wrap it up around that kind of failure to handle it in a compassionate and empathetic way.” Guest Info: Wade Thomas is the founder and principal of Aim to Win, a consultancy focused on bringing out the best in high performing individuals, teams, and organizations. Wade has over 20 years of experience in leadership and talent management areas, most recently as the Chief Human Resources Officer for Meritage Homes Corporation. A graduate of Stetson University, he also has an MBA from Indiana University and further executive education from the University of Michigan. He is a true business consultant who believes that championship level individuals and organizations thrive as a result of strategically leveraging their strengths, developing strong habits, and navigating interpersonal dynamics. Wade found his niche quite by accident. Working in sales for a national retail chain, he discovered that, while growing revenue was rewarding, what really excited him was developing talent and watching careers take off. This inspired Wade to pursue an MBA with a focus on Human Resources. Working as a senior Human Resources executive for industry-leading manufacturing and service companies has given Wade terrific insight. In tune with how career trajectories are shaped and maintained, he knows first-hand the inner workings of the business world, which enables me to provide practical, actionable coaching expertise. This corporate Human Resources experience sets him apart — so many coaches and trainers rely solely on their own personal business experience to craft their theories and approaches to career development. Favorite Quote: "We > Me" — Unknown R.O.G. Takeaway Tips: 1. Compassion Create our own heart-based culture with compassion and empathy. Compassion literally means “to suffer together.” Care enough about other people and listen to their story. Empathy is the ability to sense other people's emotions and imagine what someone else might be thinking or feeling. Cognitive empathy invites us to consider the perspective of another. 2. Get to Know Your Team Get to know every member of the team. Choose one person a week - or month. It will be worth the effort.

Quote: “The way to define heart-based leadership is leadership that focuses on empathy and compassion.

56. Mia Ives-Rublee - Accessible Voices “If you are an organization that wants to be extremely open and welcoming to the disability community, you shouldn't go for the bare minimum. You should be attempting to be as accommodating and open as possible because that's going to bring in more talented individuals who are excited about working at your location.” Guest Info: Mia Ives-Rublee is the director for the Disability Justice Initiative at American Progress. Prior to coming to American Progress, she advocated for disability justice and inclusion at nonprofit organizations and businesses across the United States. She has worked with Women's March, Families Belong Together, DC Action Lab, Adoptees for Justice, Fair Fight, People's Collective for Justice and Liberation, and numerous other progressive organizations. Best known for founding the Women's March Disability Caucus, Ives-Rublee helped organize the original Women's March on Washington in 2017. The Women's March was one of the first large-scale events to have certified deaf interpreters on stage. Ives-Rublee's work pushed for better access to disability accommodations at progressive events and more policy platforms inclusive of the disability community. For her work on the Women's March, Ives-Rublee was named by Glamour magazine as one of 2017's Women of the Year Award. She was also recognized by She the People as one of 20 Women of Color in Politics to Watch in 2020 and awarded the 2019 Distinguished Alumni Award from the University of North Carolina (UNC) School of Social Work. Mia Ives-Rublee worked on several political campaigns during the 2020 cycles. As a North Carolina community regional organizing director for the Elizabeth Warren Campaign for President, she communicated policies and organized events around specific issues affecting the disability and Asian American communities. She volunteered on Warren's Disability Policy Group, helping shape the Disability Policy Platform and developing the campaign's private event accessibility toolkit. During the general election, Ives-Rublee worked as the field director for Down Home NC to encourage rural residents to vote. She also worked with the Asian American Advocacy Fund and the Georgia Disability Vote Partnership to help elect Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-GA) and the Rev. Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-GA) during the 2021 special election. For six years, Ives-Rublee worked as a vocational counselor at the North Carolina Division of Vocational Rehabilitation Services to help disabled people obtain substantial employment and connect with services in their communities. She researched alternative mental health diversion programs at UNC Chapel Hill in 2015 and, in 2017, was the confidential assistant to Commissioner Chai Feldblum at the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. At the Ford Foundation in 2019, Ives-Rublee created a Disability Inclusion Toolkit for nonprofit organizations. Ives-Rublee holds a bachelor's degree in sociology from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and a master's degree in social work from UNC Chapel Hill. Favorite Quote: “Need to make sure people with disabilities are at the table when policy is being made." — Mia Ives-Rublee R.O.G. Takeaway Tips: 1. Policies Does your organization have an employee handbook? If so, what does your employee handbook say about hiring people with disabilities? What does it say about accommodations? How will you learn more about ADA, SSI, SSDI and Medicaid for your disabled employees? As Mia says, "Make sure people with disabilities are at the table when policy is being made." 2. Accommodations Does your current process include a question to the candidate about accommodations? During the interview, how do you inquire about what accommodations may be needed? Once hired, what accommodations do you offer? What could you offer? Consider how inclusive the interview, hiring, onboarding and employment processes are and how you can make them even better.
