There is no shortage of places to find information. You have social channels, news outlets, and the internet. Further, our brains are limited in the amount of information they can hold and all these combined can take an emotional toll. Ross Dawson joins Kevin to discuss information overload and how it can be perceived as a problem or an opportunity.

Key Points

Ross Dawson talks about the difference between overwhelmed and abundance. He shares 5 powers to manage information overload. These include: 

  • Purpose - understanding why we want information at all, so we can understand how to use it well.
  • Framing - connecting all the information we encounter to make sense of it, build knowledge, and develop expertise.
  • Filtering - being able to see what is useful to us and discarding everything else.
  • Attention - intentionally selecting where we direct our awareness, not just through focus, but in exploring and regenerating ourselves.
  • Synthesis - the ultimate human capability of connecting the dots to understand the world, see opportunities, and make better decisions.
  • He discusses practical tools we can use for filtering.

Lori Michele Leavitt shares with Kevin that clarity in direction, strategy, or change has two parts: to get clear and to be clear. It is important to stop and understand what is happening.

Do you work with any difficult people? Research indicates when we deal with difficult people, our creativity, productivity, and engagement suffer. Conflict and stress compromise our ability to think clearly and make sound decisions. Amy Gallo joins Kevin to share practical advice about how to deal with challenging relationships. She tells us that although we have more positive and/or neutral interactions in a day, we tend to focus on the negative. We should be more empathetic and come up with different reasons why/what motivates another’s behavior. We should also take a step back to see if we are the difficult person.

How often do you feel stifled by all the red tape? Do you ever think you could get more done if your organization wasn’t so bureaucratic? Nick Sinai tells Kevin that bureaucracy is just organizations with rules and procedures. It does not have a positive or negative connotation. However, when we take the time to understand them, we can continue to improve them. Further, you don’t need to be an executive to get things done. When people take change on themselves, they build the momentum for change. Nick shares some bureaucratic hacks to get unstuck.

When we think about leadership development, we probably think about workshops, podcasts, white papers, and business books. We understand the importance of learning to benefit ourselves and our organizations. Unfortunately, after putting in a full day (or more) of work, we find we don’t have the energy to read novels. Melanie Bell joins Kevin to talk about how reading fiction can also help with our leadership development. Studies have indicated that different parts of our brains are activated when we read fiction vs. nonfiction. Further, business books break down the problem to the principle. In fiction, the characters are complicated so, we don’t just jump to conclusions. The stakes are lower, so we can take a breath and think about the situation.

Key Points

  • Melanie discusses why fiction can be powerful for leaders.
  • She shares how to translate fiction to leadership. 
  • She provides advice on choosing a fictional book to read for leadership lessons.

Meet Melanie

Work is changing; it always has. However, March of 2020 brought accelerated change. The question we need to ask is what is work changing to, and how can we adapt? Brian Elliott joins Kevin to share findings of the change in work from research with his colleagues at the Future Forum and global case studies from leading companies such as Levi Strauss & Co., Genentech, Royal Bank of Canada, and IBM. For example, 74% of executives want to come back to the office three days a week or more. Only 23% of employees want the same thing. In addition, 63% of executives are planning for the future without input from their team.

Are you frustrated because your hard work isn’t noticed? Are you looking to move up and don’t know how? Michael Wenderoth joins Kevin to discuss the mindsets we need to change to not only promote ourselves but also our teams. For example, politics aren’t bad; they are just a mechanism by which decisions are made. Power is not a bad word. We need to understand power and learn how to harness its energy. When we reject the idea of power, we are immediately at a disadvantage. We need to leverage power to accelerate our impact.

Key Points

  •  
    Michael Wenderoth discusses the mindset shifts we need to think about including political, authenticity, and power.

New customers are great, and to keep them we need to nurture the relationship and build trust. Jason Young tells Kevin that most decisions are based on emotion. So, to continue the relationship, it’s important to understand how the guest feels. This is true for both external customers and our teams. It’s easy to give a job title or description.

When we want to make a lasting impact and move beyond “What’s in it for me?” to “What’s in it for we?” we live the life of a steward. David York shares with Kevin that a steward is someone who invests in something bigger than themselves. They know their purpose and create lives with meaning and direction. Even better, when we focus on others, we take the pressure off ourselves. We move away from if-then statements to because-therefore statements, and everyone wins.

Key Points

  • David York shares his definition of stewardship and why it matters. 
  • He discusses the four destinations (consumer, dreamer, owner, and steward). 
  • He talks about the connection between stewardship and leadership.

  • Worth Mentioning: David is the co-author of Entrusted: Building A Legacy That Lasts and Riveted: 44 Values that Change the World, which after its release was the #1 Business Ethics book on Amazon.
