• Self-Leadership - Personal Development & Growth - Actions & Consequences
    Sep 17 2024

    Welcome to Episode 286 of the Walking Leader Podcast with your host David Guerra, MA, MBA.

    In this episode, 286, David shares with you some tips and tools on ACTIONS & CONSEQUENCES. As a Leader, the sooner you understand and accept that for every ACTION you take there is a CONSEQUENCE. No one is immune to that fact. Consequences come in many shapes and sizes. When will the CONSEQUENCES occur? Only fate knows. No matter the reason, there is one thing that all true leaders must accept and that is to OWN YOUR ACTIONS AND YOUR CONSEQUENCES. Owning your actions and the inevitable consequences puts you head and shoulders above those that feel they are immune to consequences for their actions.

    The sooner any up and coming leader lives with the consequences of their actions (intentional or unintentional) the better leaders they become. They become better at leading because they hold themselves to a higher standard long before they try to think they can hold others to any standard.

    SO, GO BEYOND THE GRIND & GO BEYOND THE HUSTLE BECAUSE THAT IS THE ONLY WAY TO BE THE WALKING LEADER AND A LEADER THAT IS GREAT TO FOLLOW.

    TO BE THAT LEADER AND TO BE WITHOUT EQUAL YOU MUST BREAK FROM THE CROWD!

    I invite you to take about 10 minutes and listen to the Episode 286 of the Walking Leader Podcast. Enjoy!

    In this episode, I talk about WORKPLACE ETIQUETTE.

  • Self-Leadership - Personal Etiquette
    Sep 2 2024
    Welcome to Episode 284 of the Walking Leader Podcast with your host David G. Guerra.
    In this episode, I share with you some tips and tools on Personal Etiquette. Please know that Personal Etiquette is more than just knowing when to use the salad fork. Every leader at every level should use some form of Personal Etiquette to help in projecting a level of confidence, respect and professionalism.

    In this episode, we take a look at something that most of us were previously unaware that might have been projecting a not-so positive first impression. Once that first impression is made (good or bad) it can never be changed. Here's a little something that might just help put you in a positive light.

  • Primary Leadership Development course - Addendum A
    Jun 22 2024

    Welcome to Episode 283 of the Walking Leader Podcast with your host David G. Guerra.

    In this episode, I share with you something all LEADERS (new and veteran leaders) face at one point (or more) in their lives. We are talking about IMPOSTER SYNDROME and left unchecked, unaddressed can become a near debilitating malady which can render any leader "combat ineffective".

    No leader can afford to become ineffective at what they do, due to IMPOSTER SYNDROME. Take action, now, before it gets control of you.

    I invite you to take about 20 minutes and listen to the Episode 283 of the Walking Leader Podcast. Enjoy!

  • Primary Leadership Development course - Session 10
    May 18 2024
    Welcome to Episode 282 of the Walking Leader Podcast with your host David G. Guerra.
    In this episode, David continues with his new PRIMARY LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT course session 10 of 10.

    The Primary Leadership Development course is designed to equip the participant with the essential leadership skills and qualities needed to excel in various personal and professional settings. Participants will engage in a comprehensive program that covers foundational leadership principles, effective communication strategies, team building, problem-solving, and self-awareness. Through a combination of theoretical concepts, practical exercises, and real-world case studies, participants will develop the skills and mindset necessary to lead with confidence and impact.

    In this session (#10), David shares with the course participants the critical need for current and future leaders to develop a Personal Leadership Philosophy. Having a Personal Leadership Philosophy ensures you are living by your values (a.k.a. Walking Their Talk). Those that follow you expect a LEADER that can walk their talk. When a "leader" fails to walk their talk they have failed their direct reports, the team, the department, the organization, and most of all they have failed themselves.

    This Primary Leadership Development Course is for anyone and everyone that is ready to take the steps towards becoming a leader of yourself and others.

    Don't forget to CREATE WIN-WIN situations in all that you do. Start Strong! Stay Strong! Finish Strong! Be Strong!

    And as always, I remind you to GO BEYOND THE GRIND & GO BEYOND THE HUSTLE BECAUSE THAT IS THE ONLY WAY TO BE THE WALKING LEADER AND A LEADER THAT IS GREAT TO FOLLOW.

    I invite you to take about 10 minutes and listen to the Episode 282 of the Walking Leader Podcast. Enjoy!
