41. Leading Through Colossal Failure

I know, it seems strange for a podcast to talk about leading though failure, but we've all seen people fail spectacularly on the world stage and think, that won't happen to me or my business.  Handling failure is all about your character.  Even in the midst of the "ship going down" there are things you should be doing as the leader.  In this week's episode of the Leadership Lifestyle Podcast, we dive into how leaders should lead through a crisis or a failure.  Yes, it can happen to any leader...

40. Leading With A Higher Mental Focus

No matter what you do for a living, you can feel like you're just on a hamster wheel doing the same things all the time.  If you lead a group of people, you also have to ensure, not only yourself, but that your team doesn't feel that way.  You have to constantly remind yourself why you and your team is important.  How what you do day in and day out matters to the business succeeding.  Most people say, embrace the grind, but did you set up the right grind?  Listen to this week's podcast on the...

39. The Success Pendulum

So, we're all chasing success.  We often don't think of it as a process.  We are so focused on winning and losing that we don't break down what causes winning and not only what we can learn from that but, also how to apply what we learn from it.  Every famous or accomplished person you know, has gone through this same pendulum.  They have figured out what works and what doesn't work.  People say it's really about luck but luck only helps if you already have something to offer. So let's get c...

38. Winning!

It's pretty simple.  We all want to win.  Companies want to win.  Your team within the company wants to win.  You get the picture but, sustainable winning is much more than hitting a goal or a number.  You can't rest on hitting one large target and you certainly can't shut down just because you missed one.  On this episode of the Leadership Lifestyle Podcast, we talk about how to create a winning environment.  In the past, dangling carrots and high pressure tactics were used to drive the team...
