Are you a victim or a victor? Perhaps we need to start out by defining these terms first.
A victim (for the purposes of this episode) is when someone feels hopeless or incapable of changing the outcome of their situation.
A victor (again for the purposes of this episode) is when you feel as though you have influence and can change the outcome.
Sometimes it’s easier to distinguish between the two when it’s someone else you’re asking the question about…
Tweet it out: We can choose to be a victor in the moment or a victim of our circumstances. Which will you choose? @KevinEikenberry

You’ve heard of helicopter parents, right?
These well-intentioned parents tend to hover over their children (like a helicopter) and typically take too much responsibility for their children’s experiences and lives. They of course do this out of love, to protect their children.
Have you ever had a helicopter boss? Again, likely out of good intentions, but their behavior probably felt more like they were overly involved in your job and responsibilities. And I can probably guess that you did not enjoy working for a helicopter boss…
So in today’s episode, I have three questions to ask yourself to help determine if YOU’RE a helicopter boss and to help you watch your behavior so that you are leading your team as effectively and as successfully as you can.

Several years ago, we started using the words “hybrid teams” to describe a team where there are some people working in a physical office and there are some people who work virtually outside of the office.
And while we started using this word well before the pandemic made it a household term, we believe that it’s an even better word than we ever realized.
In this episode, I’ll explain why “hybrid” is the right word for right now.

Don’t let that title scare you. I am not turning this into a health series and I am not selling any supplements.
