This is the second in a series of videos on four-letter words. This might shock my Grandmother – that is until she watched them to see what these words are and are not. 🙂
The last video was on the most dangerous four-letter word (You can watch that here). And this video is on the hardest four-letter word. Today we’re talking about WORK.

What do you do when you don’t know what to do? If the past has taught us anything, it is the future is unstable. Further, we like the change we opt into, but struggle with the change we can’t control. April Rinne joins Kevin to discuss why we should focus on preparing for the future, not predicting the future.

Bet you weren’t expecting a video title like that on this podcast?!
Well, don’t worry. The episode and the entire topic is totally SFW (safe for work – and anywhere for that matter!) In fact, the four-letter word I’m talking about in the video below is one we hear ALL THE TIME. And in the episode, I’ll explain why it’s so dangerous and how you can ban it from your vocabulary for good!
Do you want compliance, or do you want engagement? Jeremie Kubicek joins Kevin to discuss how we need more leaders worth following. There is a balance of support (not coddling) and challenge (not demeaning) to get the most from your team. Quite frankly, if you are leading and no one is following, you are just going on a walk.

Today I am challenging your thinking on how you give and receive feedback. And I’m starting by asking you:
How do you see feedback? Do you see feedback as a gift?
Your answer to these questions will help determine how successful you are in both giving and receiving feedback.
We are firmly planted in the digital age. As such, the rules of competition are vastly different from just 20 years ago. Ram Charan joins Kevin to talk about the “new” rules of competition. He also encourages us to ask ourselves each morning how we can use our day and how we can make the people around us more successful. This episode was recorded during Virtual LeaderCon 2021.

There are a lot of easy reasons that everyone should practice more gratitude, but that is a different episode. In the episode below, I am talking about the value of gratitude as it relates to leaders, and more specifically:
Why are the best leaders the ones who are grateful and regularly show gratitude?

Maybe Dr. Seuss said it best, “The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go.” Jeff Brown joins Kevin to discuss why leaders are the best readers. He shares a plan to help you get into the habit of reading and gives you permission to move away from a book if it does not serve you.
