In this episode, Jordan and Frank discuss:

Marshall Goldsmith Stakeholder Centered Coaching How leaders can get people to want to follow them The advantages of “Feed Forward” over “Feedback” 
(Feed Forward is important-Check it out) The discipline for 95% success in changing perceptions about your leadership

 

Key Takeaways:

Talking about the future leads to more productivity.  Leaders change perception of their leadership with 3 actions: ask, listen the right way, and say thank you. Effective leaders must be able to respectfully tell their team what not to do 

 

"That rearview mirror is what’s behind you, it’s like the feedback. It’s important to see and learn from what’s behind you, but put more emphasis on where you’re headed than where you’ve been.” —  Frank Wagner
