Description

In today’s conversation, I talk about the simple frameworks that I use, and some that I’ve created, that help individuals and teams thrive at work and live into their purpose. 

Undoubtedly you use frameworks for getting stuff done at work, at school, and at home. But what do you do if your frameworks no longer work for you?

If you are like me, you look for something better or you create your own.
And the frameworks that I used, whether I found them or created them, have enabled me to amplify and live into my purpose. 

To celebrate the 2nd anniversary of the What Do You Know To Be True? podcast, I take a turn as a guest to talk about my superpower, Creating and Sharing Simple Frameworks. Friends of the podcast, Liv Olson and April McCormick both suggested the idea a few weeks apart, and I’m pretty good at noticing patterns, so I went with it.

And April, who is a wonderful Leadership Coach and talented host of the “Uncomfortable Friend” podcast, offered to host this episode. She does a fantastic job, I’m so grateful to her!

In the episode I share a handful of frameworks…
1️⃣ Those I’ve created
(Like the one I wrote about in my book, “The Project Success Checklist” or the framework that is the foundation for the podcast)
2️⃣ My “go to” framework for helping leaders assess employees’ responses to change
3️⃣ My favorite framework that I’ve used on almost every initiative in the last 20 years 

I love to share these frameworks with colleagues. Whether I created them or not, these frameworks help me live into my purpose.

And like most people that I’ve interviewed for the podcast, my superpower didn’t come from a place of strength. 

Instead, that talent started as a way to attend to an unmet need. 

Spoiler alert: After doing 50+ podcast conversations, I’ve noticed a pattern in how superpowers have been developed. Boom: another framework.

In this episode, Roger answers the following questions:
➡️ How do I use a framework?
➡️ What frameworks are used in business and problem solving?
➡️ How do I create a framework?
➡️ What does "framework" mean in simple terms?
