  • 053: Appreciation in the Workplace with Dr. Paul White
    Jan 21 2020

    As a leader, are your attempts at intended appreciation with your team falling flat? Maybe it's because you're not speaking their language. Today, I'm talking with Dr. Paul White, the man who literally wrote the book on appreciation at work. He is the co-author of the book, Five Languages of Appreciation in The Workplace. It is hands down one of the best books that leaders can utilize in order to grow their sense of effective communication with their teams. 

    RESEARCH SHOWS 79% OF PEOPLE WHO QUIT VOLUNTARILY DO SO BECAUSE OF LACK OF APPRECIATION

    Dr. Paul explains “Not everybody feels appreciated in the same way.” In our conversation we cover the five languages of appreciation being words, quality time, acts of service, tangible gifts, and even physical touch.

    APPRECIATION IN THE WORKPLACE MAKES SENSE FOR BUSINESS

    We also discuss how appreciation can help increase a business’s bottom line. For instance, if your team feels valued, they're more likely to be cheerful and helpful to the customers to get a problem solved. This positive action could mean repeat business. Dr. Paul and I take on many aspects of appreciation in the workplace. My hope is this conversation may illuminate the need to be more intentional with the communication of appreciation as leaders, as team members—both professionally and personally. 

    EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS
    • Behind the book, The 5 Languages of Appreciation in the Workplace including collaborating with co-author Gary Chapman.
    • Employee engagement isn’t what leaders should be focusing on and instead what leaders should be focusing on.
    • Why compensation and financial reward is a poor long-term motivator.
    • How appreciation makes a difference in an organization.
    • How to transform a toxic workplace into a place that is healthier and vibrant. 

    Until next time, lead well!

  • 052: Creating a Better Version of Yourself in 2020
    Jan 14 2020

    It is a new year. It's a new decade. Welcome to 2020! With these moments on the calendar, there's always the hope of great change. But the reality is the movement of dates on the calendar doesn't create change, something else has to happen. Very little change occurs until you make a significant change in the way you see the world. And this is the topic of this week’s podcast episode.


    A BETTER VERSION OF YOUR LIFE BEGINS WITH A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF YOURSELF

    By better I don't mean earning a greater revenue or obtaining more success. These things are valuable. When I talk about better I mean less entangled and becoming more available to the people you serve (family, team, community). Change cannot be based on what's going on outside. It really has to begin on the inside. And this can actually pose a challenge to many.

    CHALLENGE YOUR MINDSET IF YOU’RE GOING TO GET BETTER

    You have to challenge your own mindset if you're going to get better. Oftentimes, pushing through challenges to come out as a better version of yourself—you cannot not get there alone. Leaders need other leaders. Peers need other peers. You need people in your corner who have experienced the same challenges, the same threats, or the same types of successes. We need others to fuel our endeavors in order to afford us the sense of safety which comes from knowing our struggles aren't unique—even though our paths may be different. In actuality, our journeys are more the same. 

    Leaders who are free in themselves will encourage freedom in those they're given to serve. If we, as leaders, are still trying to get our needs for safety and survival met, we will never be fully available to give anything more to those who are making the journey with us. 

    Until next time, lead well!

  • 051: A Christmas Message
    Dec 24 2019

    Ho, ho, hold on…you don’t like Christmas? I understand this season can be painful for some. It can be a season where depression and suicide rates are on the increase. Or perhaps, as you get older the events of Christmas don’t match the warm, sentimental memories you carry for the season. Today, I want to offer you a message of kindness and hope.

    YOU CAN’T SLOW THE CLOCK

    The holiday season is filled with frenetic energy and pressure. You are faced with doing the right thing plus fulfilling obligations to be at all of the holiday social engagements. The reality is you can’t slow the clock. But you can positively influence the movement of your soul as it responds to the movement of time. I want to offer you a couple of recommendations to help make the season a little bit easier to manage.

    BE KIND AND GIVE YOURSELF MERCY

    This season offer the gift of kindness to those around you. Everyone around you is in a great battle. I also would like to ask you to offer yourself the gift of mercy. You don’t need to do it perfectly, but I'm pretty confident you can do it. When you offer yourself the gift of mercy, only then are you able and free enough to give unto others the gift of kindness. Be kind to them and to yourself this holiday season.

    Until next time, lead well!
