Asking for forgiveness is better than asking for permission. If you ask for forgiveness, it means you’re proactively trying new things and can get things done quicker. If you do things right, you probably won’t have to ask for forgiveness that often. Instead of waiting for people’s decisions and asking for permission, take initiative and just ask for forgiveness. --------------------- This episode is sponsored by Workplace from Meta.

Communication is one of the most important skills a leader could have. If you don’t know how to communicate, then your message might not be received well by your people. But there is one thing that you have to remember - Communication isn’t just about what you say. It’s also about how you say it. Your demeanor, tone, or body language is just as important as the message itself. --------------------- This episode is sponsored by Workplace from Meta.

How can leaders truly make their organization a great place to work? It starts by making a huge mental shift which is moving away from creating a place where you assume people NEED to be there, to creating a place where people WANT to be there. This shift from NEED → WANT is what employee experience is all about. Three tips for you as a leader:

Do you believe in work-life balance? This topic is getting a lot of attention these days. But work-life balance doesn’t exist. There’s no such thing as a perfect ratio between work and life. Life doesn’t work that way. So instead of talking about work-life balance, the conversation should be more about work-life integration. We need both of those things to thrive and survive. --------------------- This episode is sponsored by Workplace from Meta. Workplace is a business communication tool from Meta.

If you want to keep improving, you have to get feedback from others. Creating a culture where feedback is encouraged is one of the best things you can do in your organization. But how do you deliver feedback? Are you brutally honest? Or do you give soft feedback? That’s not the problem. The problem lies in how we receive feedback. Oftentimes, we take it personally and get very emotional. But that’s not how we should receive feedback. Listen in this episode and learn the best way to receive feedback. --------------------- This episode is sponsored by Workplace from Meta. Workplace is a business communication tool from Meta.

Have you ever wondered why seemingly good ideas don’t get implemented even though people know they are good ideas? As a leader who wants to introduce a new idea or innovation, it can be challenging to convince people to get on board.  Loran Norgren, Professor at the Kellogg School of Management and co-author of the book The Human Element: Overcoming the Resistance That Awaits New Ideas.  In this episode, we are going to explore the psychological frictions that oppose change. Where so many leaders are obsessed with focusing on value and features, Loran argues that it’s actually four frictions that stop new ideas from being implemented. --------------------- This episode is sponsored by Workplace from Meta.

A few months ago, Simon Sinek made a video where he said the title of CEO needs to go and be replaced by the title of Chief Vision Officer. Simon's argument was that for every other role inside of the organization, whether it be the CTO, CHRO, or the CMO, their title basically explains what they do. But when it comes to a CEO, most people have no clue what that person does and what that role even means. To be honest, I think most people are actually more confused by a title like CHRO than they are by the title of CEO. I find that people rarely say they have no idea what a CEO does. I don't think the issue is so much that we don't know what a CEO does. The issue is more that we don't keep the CEO accountable for doing what we know they should be doing. We know the role of a CEO is to set the vision, guide the organization, put people first, and create a better world and a better organization. But do we actually hold CEOs responsible and accountable for doing that? That is where I think the bigger problem is. J

What’s the most important part of being a successful leader? According to Hubert Joly, former CEO of Best Buy, it’s all about being purposeful. Purposeful leaders understand the purpose of the people around them and know what drives them.

There are 5 things I wish I knew earlier in my career. 1. Be a taste tester. When you're younger, you likely won’t know what you want to do. It’s ok to try different things and see what you like and don’t like. Think like a taste tester. 2. Build your own ladder. You don't need to climb anybody else's ladder, especially in this new world of work. Make your own ladder. 3. Make your own decisions. It's okay to listen to the advice of others, but you need to make your own choices. Don't let anybody else make choices for you. 4. Life is too short to be miserable at work. If you are miserable at your job, do something about it. 5. Be self-aware. Understand your strengths and weaknesses to be able to get help from others early on. --------------------- Companies with better employee experiences have more engaged and productive workers, higher profits, and the ability to attract and retain talent.
