#70 Reimagine Leadership: The Results are In: We're Being Transformed

September 12, 2023 11:16 - 1 hour - 83.1 MB

This series began with a conversation with my client, Jennifer Bartkowski, and we’re concluding the same way. Jennifer is the ‘very proud’ CEO of Girl Scouts of Northeast Texas.  In Fall of 2022 we launched a multi-month, cohort- and practice-based leadership program:  Reimagine Girl Scouts Leadership Academy.  We’ve tracked the journey and interviewed subject matter experts in key  content areas that we covered. Today we talk about the final results of the program and a few lessons learne...

#69 Reimagine Leadership: Navigating the Demands on Our Energy, Attention + Time

September 12, 2023 11:14 - 55 minutes - 75.8 MB

We have constant demands on our attention, energy and time.  If we don’t have strategies for staying focused on what is most important we will almost certainly lose the battle and succumb to distractions that leave us feeling depleted and frustrated.  My friend and colleague, Dr. Chris Johnson has literally written a book on how to stay present.  And me?  I created a worksheet with strategies to help you get and stay focused. Here are a few highlights from our conversation: To guide your ...

#68 Reimagining Leadership: Transforming Organizations: The Power of Trust

September 12, 2023 11:10 - 55 minutes - 75.8 MB

I’ve worked with a lot of organizations in my time as a coach and leadership consultant and the issue of trust is almost always at or near the center of concern.  You’re never done building and nurturing trust.  As one of my guests today quotes, “trust is the only thing that affects everything” (Stephen M.R. Covey). We gave it a great deal of air time in the Reimagine Leadership program. Jerry Magar and Lori Darley join me in today’s discussion and we talk about: Signs that trust may be mi...

#67 Reimagine Leadership: Adaptive Leadership Using Tilt 365

September 12, 2023 11:06 - 59 minutes - 54.9 MB

When I ask experts in the leadership field what the most important attribute for effective leadership today is, I get some version of adaptability or agility.  In other words, what is most important is that we’re able to read a context and shift our approach to meet circumstances and challenges with new thinking and behaviors. My guest today, Pam Boney, is so passionate about this that she created an assessment that displays our strengths and helps us know how and where we may need to shift...

#66 Reimagine Leadership: Leading Above the Line

September 12, 2023 11:04 - 52 minutes - 72.1 MB

As part of the Reimagine Leadership limited series, this is the first episode where we dig into content that we actually threaded throughout the program I developed for the Girl Scouts of Northeast Texas. Jim Fallon is an Executive Coach for The Conscious Leadership Group and a Strategic Advisor for many organizations.  He spent decades as an executive for many organizations across various industries, which I feel results in a very grounded pragmatism in his approach. We talk about the boo...

#65 Reimagine Leadership: Beyond Training: True Development is Integral, Social and Active

September 12, 2023 11:02 - 48 minutes - 39.2 MB

Transformation Happens in Community. We don’t reach our potential alone.  Without conversation, without rubbing up against each others’ nervous systems.  Without vulnerability, self-awareness, being mirrored by others and without engaging to support their development as well. I knew this episode would be special and it was, because I was engaging with deep thinking, big hearted people who care a lot about creating structures and ecosystems where others feel safe enough to take risks and sh...

#64 Reimagining Leadership: Democratizing Development

September 12, 2023 11:00 - 50 minutes - 69.3 MB

I love this episode.  Here are the important topics we discuss: Tying...

#62 Reimagine Leadership: A limited series podcast about leader development

September 07, 2023 16:00 - 15 minutes - 20.9 MB

#61 Undivided Living & Transforming Mistakes | Jeff Schiefelbein

June 07, 2022 08:36 - 54 minutes - 74.9 MB

“I bet half of our anxiety is the energy of trying to remember which hat to put on in my relationship with [others]…And people end up becoming a less real version of themselves. …Why can't we be fully present to this process, and not have to put anything on the side - not try to take away the personal parts of who we are?” Showing up fully human What if I told you it’s possible to bring your full self to the workplace? Jeff Shiefelbein thinks it's not possible, but necessary for forming hu...

#60 Going Beyond Zer0: Business as a Restorative Enterprise | Nathan Havey

May 24, 2022 08:17 - 1 hour - 82.7 MB

“Business is the social institution that that makes the world go ‘round. At one point in time, it was government and monarchies, and another point in time, it was religion. Now, it's businesses. So if we want to change the world, we have to change business.” – Nathan Havey 3D Business: A force for positive change In the 1970s, Milton Friedman said that the only responsibility of business is to increase profits for its shareholders. Today, conscious capitalism expands the definition of suc...

#59 How Not Knowing Gets us Unstuck | Jay G. Cone, Ph.D.

May 10, 2022 08:15 - 49 minutes - 67.4 MB

Do you ever feel overwhelmed and even stuck by situations that feel complex, uncertain and ambiguous? I certainly do. My guest today, Jay Cone, tells us that there's a surprising power in not knowing what to do. He believes that if we can boost our immunity to feeling the chaos, we can respond with creativity and compassion rather than paralysis and tribalism. Does expanding your repertoire and freeing your mind sound useful? Then join us as we talk about bias, quicksand questions, and fo...

#58 A Fool’s Choice: Achievement or Evolution with Donna Zajonc

April 26, 2022 08:00 - 1 hour - 86.6 MB

“If we focus on goals alone, without being tethered into this beingness, [it] can activate and trigger us, and we see those goals as our persecutor…‘Was the goal big enough? Did I do it fast enough?’ So the goal-setting can actually become a persecutor. And in our own mind, we feel victim to that.” – Donna Zajonc   Are your goals also your persecutor? Working toward a goal or vision is important - but how often do we pay as much attention to the person that we're being while in that pursu...

#57 5 Practices to Ground and Elevate Your Authenticity

April 12, 2022 08:31 - 17 minutes - 23.8 MB

 “Imagine if we could all show up in more, if not all, places in life fully ourselves - that we could fully open ourselves to learning, making mistakes, taking feedback, taking risks, and be being fully seen for our humanity and our potential without the fear of embarrassment or retribution.” Move from socially defined to self-authored Have you ever felt that internal tug-of-war where you yearn to bring your whole self to a situation - but you hold yourself back? Perhaps you self-impose gu...

#56 Pause and Reflect: Q1 2022

March 22, 2022 08:04 - 18 minutes - 24.8 MB

“Can you discern between resistance and fear and strategic changes in direction? …not giving up and changing direction because something is hard or scary, yet being willing to change your mind even when something you really wanted to pursue is no longer a good investment of your precious resources?” Reflect, refresh, and recalibrate The change in seasons reminds us that it's time to pause and reflect on what's behind and what's ahead of us. In organizational life we do quarterly reviews to...

#55: Paradoxical Thinking + Wellbeing | Vital for 21st Century Leaders

March 08, 2022 09:01 - 59 minutes - 81.3 MB

“[In contrast to] the ‘either/or’, ‘right/wrong’ mindset where there's nothing in between - paradoxical thinking would say, ‘What if it's both? What if there’s value in understanding the first path, and value in equally understanding the other path, and even the third?’ … It’s about being able to hold that tension between paths.” – Renee Moorefield Finding comfort in the contradiction When we experience a paradox, we feel pulled in separate directions, without a clear or simple solution.

February 08, 2022 08:03 - 10 minutes - 14.2 MB

“Is our life an illustration of the ideals that we hold dear? Are we a living example of our personal philosophies for how to live meaningfully?” Letting your life speak As Maya Angelou famously said, "People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”   As conscious and conscientious leaders, we not only strive for business results - we want to leave organizations, families and communities better than we found them. T...

#52 Becoming Our Own Innovation Project | Fran Cherny

January 25, 2022 08:00 - 58 minutes - 79.9 MB

“What if life was a place full of possibilities for us to get better at the things that we care about? Instead of a place where we need to prove that we’re great and perfect?” – Fran Cherny If we expect ourselves to master new skills easily and in short time, we’re setting ourselves up for disappointment and very likely a resistance to future change efforts. To give ourselves the best chance for growth and development, it’s important that we align our efforts with our values. Also importan...

#47 Shaken & Stirred | Calming a Frayed Nervous System

October 26, 2021 08:23 - 19 minutes - 26.9 MB

We will all grapple with trauma in some form. If you haven’t experienced it yet personally, then as a leader, mentor, friend, or loved one, you’ll be with someone who has. Drawing from my own recent experience, I want to share what I’ve learned from an event that rattled my nervous system. We'll all get shaken by life, and whether it’s a heated argument, natural disaster, or a dog attack (like mine), it’s important to work through that experience so that unprocessed trauma doesn't get lodge...
