In this episode, Global Leadership Podcast interviewer Jason Jaggard sits down with Chris McChesney, co-author of The Four Disciplines of Execution, to revisit the book and to explore how the four disciplines can impact our lives outside the business world.   IN THIS EPISODE:  -       What is a basic overview of the “Four Disciplines of Execution”?  -       How can you learn to focus what is most important, but is not necessarily the most urgent?  -       What “levers” can you affect that make it seem like your intended result is a winnable game?  -       What has being a parent taught Chris about leadership, and how can the four disciplines be applied to a family?     LISTEN   Apple Podcasts  |   Spotify  |  YouTube      STANDOUTS AND TAKEAWAYS  -       It’s better to fall in love with a problem than it is to fall in love with a solution.  -       All of the “have tos” in our life is called “The Whirlwind.” The “One” is the strategic result in your life that is going to require disproportionate effort.  -       Human beings have the capacity to handle “the whirlwind plus one.”  -       It’s best to not give your frontline teams the answers; get their commitment and engagement by making them a part of the process.  -       The Four Disciplines can actually be a way to protect the entrepreneurial spirit of a organization.  -       If you want to see the highest level of engagement a human being is capable of, watch them in a game.  -       The strategic result you’re looking for should feel like both a high-stakes game and a winnable game.  -       Progress and purpose are the most important things that drive employee engagement. This fact also has profound implications for how leaders address remote work.  -       The whole purpose of The Four Disciplines is to achieve goals that do not feel as important as “the day job.”  -       If kids have one anchor of self-esteem in their life, they are able to handle the whirlwind and drama of life much more effectively.  -       The enemy of the human soul is not work; it’s futility.  -       The struggle is that as you become more successful as a company, the whirlwind grows and requires more and more.  -       People don’t fear change; they fear uncertainty.  -       Most success comes from putting huge energy into small wins.  -       The most significant jump is moving from leading a team to leading leaders.   LINKS MENTIONED  -       Website: Chris McChesney  -       Book: The 4 Disciplines of Execution: Revised and Updated: Achieving Your Wildly Important Goals  -       Added Value: Tim Harford: Trial, error and the God complex (TEDTalk via YouTube)  -       Added Value:  “Leaders Concerned About Remote Work Should Be Looking at This Metric”  -       Podcast:  2018 Global Leadership Podcast  -       Book: The Truth About Employee Engagement: A Fable About Addressing the Three Root Causes of Job Misery (Patrick Lencioni)    -       Website: Global Leadership Network   THIS EPISODE SPONSORED BY:   -        World Vision
