New Podcasts Resource Page

We have experienced a lot of growth this year. So much so that we decided to totally redesign the podcast section of our website. Now you can access all of them at the new podcast page.

New Podcasts:

Would You Mind Spending A Minute with Me – Corine La Font

In this podcast we talked about how we make choices and leaving a legacy. When we think about leadership, we tend to think about business leadership, but it’s much more that that. Parents, coaches and teachers are all leaders – in many ways. Leadership is much more than just a name or a title. Ultimately it is about who you are and what you stand for.

Pitching the Truth Podcast With Gregory Paul – Why You Need To Reboot Your Reputation

We covered a lot in this podcast. Topics included:

The importance of having individuals who will be your sounding board The impact of your childhood experiences on how you are as a leader Leadership lessons from Wells Fargo Leadership is all about alignment Taking inventory of your life as an effective leader who creates a culture of excellence The ‘three times/phases in your career’ and how to go through each phase Mistakes leaders do when giving sanctions Your leadership legacy statement and the benefits of creating a leadership legacy The legendary Joe Scafone plays an important role in explaining the importance of not stopping at the first right answer

The 100-Day Plan for 2019

The 100 Day Plan For 2019

At this time of year, we start to plan for next year’s results. Our desktops and computer monitors covered with flowcharts, performance reviews and marketing projections, we start the arduous task of plotting the path forward. Yet, despite our best efforts, we sometimes fall short. It is not so much that we don’t know how to plan but may be instead that we focus on the wrong things. More often than not, we get caught up in the day to day activities that require us to put out fires and wrestle with ongoing business challenges.

Our highly praised 100-day plan offers an easy to implement blueprint for a strategic planning process that is both powerful in approach and elegant in its simplicity. This approach to planning resonates deeply with both new and seasoned team leaders.

I believe that when it comes to providing leadership and setting expectations, it starts with me and you as the leader, being clear and concise on the vision for the New Year and the first 100 days. What your people learn and hear first is what they will retain the longest. The speed of the leader determines the pace of the pack and our commitment should be to set the pace. A good plan and vision will give you the ability to start right and stay right throughout the coming year. The plan should be written and communicated so that there is no confusion, to gauge progress and to hold yourself and your people accountable.

More information on the development of a 100-day business plan and a wealth of other strategic planning material is available in ‘Tighten The Lug Nuts: The Principles of Balanced Leadership’. I bring these principles to life in engaging and highly entertaining keynote presentations and breakout sessions. We can work with your team to create a world class event and inspire your audience. Our keynotes and breakout sessions will help your audiences to stabilize, lead, and grow their businesses through our Balanced Leadership approach. Both can provide an education platform tailored to your audience’s needs.

Coach’s Corner

Be the best coach you can be

I often think about the time I spent with legendary UCLA Coach John Wooden, whom I had the great pleasure to interview while I was a leader at UPS. Each newsletter, I include one of my favorite quotes from Coach Wooden. Coach often said “What is right is more important than who is right.”

Coach Wooden played a key role in helping me to shape my life and values. I’ve incorporated Coach’s Four Laws in many ways over my years as a Balanced Leader – from ensuring safe work methods were followed to establishing leadership expectations. Doing so helps you go beyond coaching to teaching others to act like owners. I believe it’s my duty to positively impact the experiences of those on my team and my customers’ teams.

Using just one simple (and extremely powerful) idea, Joe Scafone can help you accomplish this, using a concept your team will love. Frankly, this may be one of the most important leadership concepts you will ever encounter. Have you met Joe? Would you like to?

An Amazon 5-Star Book

Why did you write this book?

Leadership is something we all have concerns about. Leadership is a concept that only applies to certain people in business, government, and civic organizations. The reality is that no matter our age, gender, occupation, educational level, or position in life, each of us touches and influences other lives.

Through this extension, we are all leaders to someone at some time. It can be a person under our supervision or care, a spouse we honor and live with, or a child we nurture, a student we teach, or a player we coach. It could be as simple as a fellow member of our church or religious affiliation, club, league or association. However it is usually identified by the fact we have made a positive difference through our actions and examples. With this sense of responsibility and being lifelong learners, we are constantly in pursuit of knowledge, whether written or experienced, of how to be a good leader and how to improve our skills.

We take great pride in the books we have read and where they sit on the best-seller list.

I often find that some of the best examples and learning experiences come from the stories we tell and the experiences we share. Sometimes they come from the stories we learned as children or read to our children as parents or grandparents. I have found that leaders must develop emotional intelligence along with their educational intelligence and business acumen. Sometimes a simple story, I find, can help people see the bigger picture, promote moral and ethical behavior, and maybe, just maybe, help us to not take ourselves so seriously.
