The last fireside chat was back in February for Episode 43. A lot has happened since then, but as the Your Best Manager podcast approaches episode 100 (next Friday), I thought it was time to evaluate some things in my business, make a few pivots, and share those changes and updates with you, the listener. Now, this conversation is intended for those of you who have been listening for a while. For the subscribers, the members of my private Facebook group, the ones who get my email updates... the ones who have been with me and stuck with me as this thing has continued to grow over the past few months. So first of all, to you... Thank You. Of course, if this is the first episode you come across or if you've only listened to a couple shows, you are welcome to grab a seat by the fire as well, but just understand that some of the things I share may not resonate with you so much as with others. Regardless, I hope you enjoy today's episode.

Happy Wednesday Everybody! And it is actually Wednesday, May 31st 2017 when I am recording this, and this episode is being released Wednesday May 31st 2017, which means I am recording this show extremely last minute. But that’s partly by design, because I’ve got an exciting announcement to make and I wanted to make sure that it was actually ready before I put this show together! Although to be honest, it would have been really nice if everything was ready about 8 hours ago. Regardless, welcome to another episode of the Your Best Manager podcast! I’m hijacking my own show today with a very short message instead of a leadership expert interview because I’m going to ask you to do something for me today and I didn’t want anything else to compete with this message. And I’d like you to take action on what I am about to say, right now. I’ve only mentioned this a few times on the podcast, but tomorrow is the official launch of the “What If” Project. I’d like you to join me for it. So click this link right now --> Join the "What If" Project: 30 Days. 30 Leadership Tips. 30 Opportunities. You can watch a video there, enter your name and email address, and that’s it. You are done! And while you are doing that, I’ll explain exactly what the “What If?” project actually is. Essentially, it’s 30 days of free leadership development training. Because the concept is… well, what if? What if managers did just ONE thing, Every Day, to become a different kind of manager? Like, what if all it took to become a better leader was to do just one small thing, each and every day? I can do one small thing every day. Everyone can do one small thing. Big change can be daunting, but big change often happens through the snowball effective of small changes, of tiny little steps, over time. So what I am doing is I am going to be sharing 30 leadership tips over 30 days. And these 30 leadership tips are primarily based off of conversations I’ve had with other leadership experts on this show. And once you sign-up for the What If project, through this link --> Join the "What If" Project: 30 Days. 30 Leadership Tips. 30 Opportunities. ...You will get access to all of these 30 tips, which I’ll be delivering through short, 5-minute-ish, live videos, every day! And, if you don’t use Facebook, don’t worry. Although I’ll be doing these videos through Facebook live, I’ll also be emailing out the tip of the day, every day, and posting the video replays on my website afterward so that you don’t miss a thing. Also, I am going to be hosting 4, 30-minute webinars through the course of the month on 4 topics, including performance management, employee engagement, recruiting and retention, and time management. And even if you aren’t actually listening to this podcast episode on Wednesday May 31st… so even if it’s June 27th when you are listening to this episode, you can still sign-up, right now, and access everything. BUT. There is a reward for those of you who sign-up earlier… like, the sooner, the better the reward… but I can’t tell you what that reward is, you’ll just have to find out for yourself. Alright, so again… click this link (Join the "What If" Project) to sign up, join me every day for 30 days as I share some of the 30 best leadership tips I know (tips that are backed up by some of the incredible guests I’ve had on this show), and let’s get this snowball of leadership change rolling! I can’t wait.

PART 2 Highlighting the Top 10 moments from the first 50 episodes of the Your Best manager Podcast, including Andrew Sherman, Howard Behar, Terry Starbucker St. Marie, Tanveer Naseer and Dov Baron Show Notes: http://yourbestmanager.com/051-the-best-leadership-moments-of-the-your-best-manager-podcast-part-2 Welcome back and welcome to Part 2 of this EPIC countdown show where I've been highlighting the top 10 moments of the Your Best Manager podcast and celebrating 50 episodes of the show. Now, I have to admit, when I decided to put this type of a recap show together I thought it might come across as maybe a cop-out or content-filler on the podcast... something easy so that I wouldn't have to work as hard as I normally do to put these shows together. Well, I'm happy that I didn't listen to that negative voice in my head because not only has it been such a pleasure to go back through the... I don't know, 25 hours of content from the last 4 months, and listen again to some of the great advice and inspiring stories that have been shared here, but it's also been a ton of work. This was not a week off. Not by a long shot. If it weren't for the timestamp show notes that I put together each time I publish a new interview, well, you certainly wouldn't be listening to this right now, that's for sure. So, I hope that you enjoyed Episode 50, and if you didn't catch episode 50... you should do that. This is a countdown and if you missed the first part, well, it's like walking in on a conversation without the context! Plus, last week I also counted down the top 10 most downloaded episodes to date, which was cool. And we are in the middle of the Top 10 Best Leadership Moments right now, and I did 10 through 6 last time... and... yeah, make sure you listen to episode 50... if you haven't. Continue Reading

It’s Episode 50! Can you believe it! It has been just 114 days since the Your Best Manager podcast launched but those 114 days have been jam-packed with so much good stuff… and I’ve got to say, I am so grateful, every day, for the opportunity I have (and have had) to connect with so many amazing people.  That includes the great guests who lend their expertise to this show but also you, the listener who joins me for each episode as we learn together and grow into more effective leaders (and hopefully better people). Show Notes: http://yourbestmanager.com/50 I wanted to take this opportunity to reflect a bit on the past 50 shows, celebrate some of the best moments from this podcast and really just get super pumped up for what’s going to be coming up on the next 50 shows! So what I’ve done is put together is an EPIC highlight reel /Recap / Top 10-style presentation... thing!  PLUS, at the end of the show, I’ve got a really cool opportunity I want to give you. It's something free, something exclusive, something you are going to want to take advantage of…. BUT… there is a problem here.  I couldn’t get all the content I wanted to share down to 30 minutes… so… you’ll have to wait for the super cool free offer/opportunity thing until Friday (Episode 51) because I’ve split up this EPIC show into two episodes! Maybe that’s breaking the rules and maybe that’s me being a bit of a jerk by telling you something really cool is coming and then saying that you have to wait and find out, but, too bad - you’ll get over it. And on that note, let’s kick this thing off! We are going to start by celebrating the top 10 Most Downloaded Episodes of the Your Best Manager Podcast Here we go!

I had a million thoughts run through my mind as I tried to find a way to connect people management with Christmas. For starters, I recognize that not everyone listening celebrates Christmas, and some may care less about this time of the year. However, I celebrate Christmas, and regardless of where you stand on the holiday, it’s a holiday… and it’s an important one for me. But I didn’t want to butcher the Christmas message by trying to slap some motivational quote or management principle on top of it, so I’ve decided to do something very simple today. I’m not sure where or when you will be listening to this episode, but I’m also not sure how frequently the real Christmas story is shared out in mainstream media these days. So I thought for those of you who don’t know the “reason for the season”… or even those who do know it, maybe today would be a nice opportunity to just listen to that story and sit in wonder for a few minutes.
