June 12, 2023 12:00 - 20 minutes - 18.9 MB

The Livermore model of Cultural Intelligence is now complete: Drive, Knowledge, Strategy, and Action. Listen to the book review in season one, and then parts one and two for a deeper dive on practicing cultural intelligence. Consider adding cultural intelligence to emotional intelligence emphases and see more benefit in cross-cultural interactions. The bottom line is this, leaders: it is easy to grow. There is much we can to do improve our serve -- first to self, then to others, then to enti...

S5E9: Cultural Intelligence, Part One

May 29, 2023 10:00 - 28 minutes - 26 MB

How willing are we, leaders, to transform ourselves by addressing our biases and assumptions? This is the bottom line of our cultural competence in leadership, to work from the inside out on our views of others. In this episode, Dr. Shaunta uses David Livermore's book on cultural intelligence to discuss the first to quadrants of his CQ model: Drive and Knowledge. There are several ways to see the impact of culture in our workplaces and we are challenged to consider culture in our interaction...

S5E8: Observing Patterns / Coaching Opportunities

May 15, 2023 11:30 - 18 minutes - 16.9 MB

All people bring baggage into the workplace. Some people manage well, disassociating to get the work done. Others have permanent baggage that cannot be resolved or escaped, and can have lingering effects in the workplace. Or, there could be simple bad habits like tardiness and a lack of consideration for others. How long do/should leaders wait to address patterns through coaching? In this episode, Dr. Shaunta presents three scenarios where team members demonstrate patterns that long term, co...

S5E7: Quiet Quitting, Quiet Firing, Silent Treatment... or Simply Shy

May 08, 2023 11:13 - 18 minutes - 17.1 MB

Today's topic is about the combinations of behaviors we can observe in the work environment. When it happens, how do we know with certainty which behaviors we see and experience from team members? When is the best time to take action, and which actions should we take? People who are shy can be limited without support and some understanding. Quiet quitters will not flourish in an organizational culture that prizes doing more that what is required. Listen as Dr. Shaunta considers these scenario...

S5E7: Quiet Quitting, Quiet Firing, Silent Treatment... of Simply Shy

May 08, 2023 11:13 - 18 minutes - 17.1 MB

Today's topic is about the combinations of behaviors we can observe in the work environment. When it happens, how do we know with certainty which behaviors we see and experience from team members? When is the best time to take action, and which actions should we take? People who are shy can be limited without support and some understanding.

S5E6: Pulling Rank

April 30, 2023 10:00 - 11 minutes - 10.5 MB

Today's topic is about pulling rank in today's work environment. When it happens, why does one pull rank? Longevity is not as big a prize as it once was in the working world. Depending on the industry, changing roles every two years or less is the norm. So then, is pulling rank a toxic behavior? Listen as Dr. Shaunta considers potential reasons why pulling rank is problematic. The Leaders Lead, Leaders Read Podcast is sponsored by the Center for Legacy Driven Leadership. Sharing the langua...

S5E5: Hoarding Information

April 23, 2023 10:00 - 10 minutes - 9.29 MB

Today's topic considers whether hoarding information is a toxic behavior. Dr. Shaunta presents a few scenarios where, if leaders withhold information to sadistically experiment with teams, hoarding information is toxic. Leaders, what is your conviction about sharing information? Do you enjoy having the information simply because others do not have the information? Do you want to see how innovative your teams will be only partially informed? How open is too open to be with your teams? Has a p...

S5E4: Parenting Leadership?

April 16, 2023 10:00 - 18 minutes - 16.8 MB

Today's topic is inspired by a statement of my coworker. "Sometimes, you have to treat them like your kids." Yes, you read that right. In an intergenerational office setting, younger workers (and the rest of us too, if we're honest) act like children in the workplace. We become needy or destructively resistant: whining, excessive complaining, avoiding responsibility, making excuses, claiming a lack of understanding, and placing motivation in the same bucket as preference. Dr. Shaunta conside...

S5E3: Boomerang Empowerment

April 09, 2023 10:00 - 18 minutes - 16.8 MB

Today's topic is about Marquet's idea of empowerment versus emancipation and team members who resist the challenge to autonomous work. Younger workers enter established office environments for the first time or are new to the industry. They perform well in interviews, look great on resumes, but have difficulty adjusting to a free work setting. Dr. Shaunta considers the ideas of empowerment, emancipation, accommodations, and reciprocation in the leader-teams dynamic. Why can't everyone lead? ...

S5E2: Is Toxicity Terminal?

April 02, 2023 10:00 - 18 minutes - 17.4 MB

Today's topic asks whether toxic leadership is terminal. The answer is no, toxic leadership can be addressed successfully and replaced with transformational policies and practices. Dr. Shaunta refers to Alma Ortega's six scenarios that are not toxic leadership from Ortega's book Academic Libraries and Toxic Leadership (2017). These scenarios inspire leaders to think more broadly about defining toxic leadership beyond opinions and experiences. Dynamic leaders with high and reasonable expect...

S5E1: Addressing Toxic Leadership

March 26, 2023 10:00 - 14 minutes - 13.7 MB

Today's topic is addressing toxic leadership. It's best done from a systemic approach, and not an individual one. Leaders can be distracted from addressing toxic systems for two reasons: 1) individuals seem more controllable so resources are directed toward specific cases and 2) there are so many factors at play that nurture toxic behaviors that leaders can cave to the overwhelm and not know where to begin. What are you doing to change the system that enables and emboldens toxic behaviors? ...

S3E9: The Cross and the Lynching Tree by James H. Cone

May 10, 2022 15:12 - 26 minutes - 24.5 MB

This book is a challenging read primarily because the reader must confront his/her/their feelings on faith, oppressed peoples, and several closely related topics. It is a heady and helpful read, like a guided tour through history and faith, on the theme of a connection between the cross of Jesus Christ and the lynching tree of Black Americans. In this review, we consider every chapter.  The Cross and the Lynching Tree in the Black Experience A Reflection on Reinhold Niebuhr Martin Luther ...

S3E8: Considerations for Building Your Own Table

April 24, 2022 01:35 - 12 minutes - 11.2 MB

Hello Leaders! This is an episode with commentary. I feel like this may be a running theme where on occasion, I will share my evolving ideas about building one's own table. In this episode, I share three thoughts that came to me during another phase of assessment.  If the table is crowded, it's because the table is known.  The inclusion discussion still exists when one builds his/her/their own tables.  If one has rights to the table, then one needs rights to the room.  The consideration...

S3E7: Power Mentoring by Ellen Ensher & Susan Murphy

April 11, 2022 15:58 - 21 minutes - 19.6 MB

Power Mentoring: How Successful Mentors and Protégés Get the Most Out of Their Relationships by Ellen Ensher and Susan Murphy (2005) This is the book we are discussing, and the ins and outs of power mentoring. The two biggest things that distinguish power mentoring from traditional mentoring is 1) reciprocity and 2) the networking approach. In the power mentoring construct, we can have as many mentors as we have needs or opportunities to grow.  The book outlines 10 types of power mentoring...

S3E6: Leadership Vertigo by S. Max Brown and Tanveer Naseer

The full title of the book is Leadership Vertigo: Why Even the Best Leaders Go Off Course and How They Can Get Back on Track. Published in 2014, there are six chapters and recommended resources.

As a solution, Brown and Naseer offer a model of four principles to help leaders assess, manage, respond to, and avoid leadership vertigo (p. 15).  B...

Leaders! Chime in -- what are the factors you consider to give an up-and-coming leader a chance for development? Is networking really such a critical component? If so, why? What causes you to say, "No, not yet" or "I don't want to invest there"?   Does any of our leadership reading provoke us to grow outside of ourselves as mentors and coaches?

S2E7: Where You Are Is Not Who You Are by Ursula M. Burns

December 12, 2021 18:39 - 19 minutes - 17.7 MB

Where You Are Is Not Who You Are by Ursula M. Burns is advice from the life and times of Ms. Burns on mentoring, coaching, modeling for one's team, leader and leadership development, and preparing to serve on a board of directors. This is a book for women and for everyone else. Ms. Burns, I feel, fairly presents her life to us: where at fault, where learning, where succeeding, where influenced, where another gets the credit, she tells us just that. Reading this book was like a conversation w...

The Black Church by Henry Louis Gates, Jr.

August 02, 2021 23:25 - 19 minutes - 18.2 MB

The Black Church by Henry Louis Gates, Jr. I am so in love with my PBS subscription and ordered this book when I saw the PBS series on The Black Church. It was wonderful! This episode is what I call my "peripheral review" of the book because this is not a leadership book. But as promised, I am sharing how I see a thread of leadership in the book, the history, and the institution of the Black Church.

S2E5: Leader Evolutions & Bell Hooks

February 27, 2021 22:41 - 12 minutes - 11.4 MB

I read All About Love by Bell Hooks and started thinking about leadership. Spiritual leadership, to be exact. Then I wondered about leader evolutions because of the comprehensive way Bell Hooks talks about love. Spiritual leadership theory posits that the intrinsically motivated leader through his/her values, beliefs, and attitudes will engage followers through a sense of calling and memberships toward a result of organizational commitment and performance.  --- Send in a voice message: ht...

S2E4: Hand Me Another Brick by Charles Swindoll

December 12, 2020 15:26 - 11 minutes - 10.6 MB

***THIS IS A FAITH-BASED BOOK.*** I personally don't like disclaimers, but I want to give you a fair warning in case your leadership and your faith don't mix.  This book is based on the account of Nehemiah the cupbearer and his leadership journey to rebuild the wall. There are distracting enemies, strategic movements, wise responses, and of course navigating communication with the people. There are lessons on competent leading, diligence, wisdom, faith, and finishing strong. If you are no...

S2E3: Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks by Rebecca Skloot

November 29, 2020 17:23 - 13 minutes - 12.4 MB

This book! I was happy, sad, angry, surprised, and disappointed. Geesh, the leadership examples abound. Historians may appreciate this read, as well as students of leadership. I learned after I finished this book that some in the medical field had this book as required reading while they trained.  The important spotlight of The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks is the placement and application of ethics in an institution. I think (but I tend to think this way!) the ethics discussion that can...

S2E2: Becoming by Michelle Obama

November 21, 2020 18:44 - 11 minutes - 10.2 MB

There are also some leadership lessons from Mrs. Obama's career search, discovery, and connection with "doing something immediately meaningful, directly impacting the lives of others" (p. 180). I know many who own the book and have either not read it or not finished it yet. Please make it a point to do so! If you remain on the fence about purchasing Becoming, please jump that fence, buy the book, and read it all! This episode emphasizes the three career lesso...

Yay.  If you are risk-averse or afraid of failure, then you want to consider this book. You do not need to be a singer, performer, or creative to read this book. The application is human.
