The Super Fantastic Leadership Show Podcast241: How To Work With Someone You Don't LikeThis week’s show is about one of those topics that we don’t like to talk about too much... except to our closest friends at happy hour... How to work with people we don’t like that much. While it would be great if everything was rainbows and unicorns, sometimes we need to learn to get along with others and get the work done. Nevertheless, we can also learn a lot about ourselves as well, as we consider exactly what it is that bothers us so much about another person. It’s an age-old question and one to consider...

The Super Fantastic Leadership Show Podcast240: How to Work with Judgment at WorkWho doesn’t love those great moments of judging? We all do until we’re the one being judged. Join us this week as we talk about how to work with it in our own minds and how judgement keeps us from forming the connections we want with our teams and the people we lead. And although we need to be able to be discerning, this isn’t the same as judging. We know, you were thinking that weren’t you? Join the conversation in this week’s show!

To make a distinction between transformational and transactional skills, leaders through the ages keep calling the transformational skills “soft”, which essentially makes them sound less relevant than the other necessary business and leadership skills. If you really want an organization that does more than just fulfill the requirements of the bottom-line, sourcing empathy and being able to listen are two of the many skills leaders must have.

The Super Fantastic Leadership Show Podcast237: How to Inspire Your TeamInspiration. We hear so much about the idea of “engaged” employees, but wouldn’t you rather have a group of inspired employees? Employee engagement is the emotional commitment the employee has to the organization and its goals. But what does that exactly mean? Don’t forget, the employee (a person) also has their own goals. So how do we move from engaged to inspired? We are discussing that and talking all about how to inspire your team. We’ll share how to connect any person’s role to the bigger purpose of what your company is trying to do...

The Super Fantastic Leadership Show Podcast236: Why You Should Let Your Team Make MistakesWe believe that the most challenging part for any leader is allowing mistakes to be made. Most company cultures don’t usually encourage, or even allow, mistakes to be made. But the reality is that if you want people to grow, you’ve got to let them learn. Of course, if you want them to learn, you’ve got to let them experiment, and that involves making mistakes. Today, we’re going to talk about mistakes, why allowing mistakes is a really good thing for you and your company, and how to allow those mistakes in a way that...

We know what procrastination is like and we, many times, tend to beat ourselves up about it. We also tend to experience worry, anxiety, and distress over our procrastination. Here’s the thing, however: the act of procrastinating isn’t the core issue. We’ll discuss why this is the case and what is, in fact, the main reason we procrastinate. Of course, we’ll also discuss what to do about it. We’ll give you some strategies today in order to give you freedom and help you t...

Since this is going to be an absolutely amazing year, we thought: what better topic to discuss than destroying the creativity of your team! Happy New Year!!! We’re all asked to be creative in our workplaces and in our life. Creativity is also mandatory for us, but we tend to sabotage our creativity by holding on to the old or even refusing to believe something new, for example. So many times and in so many examples, creativity is stifled. But there’s a way to avoid destroying the creativity and foster, not only new idea...

The Super Fantastic Leadership Show Podcast232: How Do You RenewWe’ve come to the end of the year! We’ve been talking about goals and patience. Now we’re talking about renewal. For some of us, the holidays is a time of renewal and rest. For others, the holidays can be a chaotic time or even bring negativity and stress. We want to ensure that you take time for rest and renewal. It’s easy to allow our adrenaline to “guide” our lives and “give” us the “energy” we use to survive. But let’s face it… adrenaline is not good for us long-term. We NEED that rest and that renewal to live...

The Super Fantastic Leadership Show Podcast231: Why You Need Some PatienceThis week’s episode is all about patience and why it is so important for us. Patience is the capacity to accept or tolerate delay, trouble, or suffering, without getting angry or upset. However, we’re not saying that patience is better than impatience. We are talking about the suffering that gets born from our craving taking over. We’ll talk about what patience and impatience actually looks like and how to cultivate patience (which is the really important part). There are two very important questions you can ask yourself every day: who did I help today and wh...

There are always SO many things to complete! This can, in effect, cause stress and anxiety. It’s also very likely that this stressful list of things to complete will smother you and your creativity.

Interestingly, most of us are stressed at work, not because of our task list, but because of the interpersonal relationships we deal with every day. We all know what conflict does to us personally. Consider how much conflict distracts us from productivity and creates a huge cost to resolve the conflict. However, fear not! As always, we have answers!!

What we really want points to our intentions and motivations. As a result, you can, instead of asking what you really want, ask: What are my intentions and motivations as I navigate this situation, relationship or circumstance? We’ll talk about what this all looks like, share some examples, discuss things that can hold us...
