Sarah has been an integral part of both my business and my book. She’s one of my business coaches as well as the facilitator for her writing group where I did most of the writing for my soon-to-be-released book, ROR, Return on Relationships, Amplify Your Authentic Leadership to Build More Resilient Teams. Sarah is Canada’s Recognition Expert and as my book launch is fast approaching, I wanted to reintroduce you to Sarah and the conversation we had about how recognition helps to create a more authentic leader and provides a better connection to their team.

I had such a wonderful and information-filled chat with Sarah McVanel last week that we decided to turn it into a 2-part series. In case you missed last week, here’s the link to Part I

It’s not mandatory that you listen to it first, but I recommend that you do. There’s so much amazing content, it would be a shame for you to miss out on any of it.

Creating a work environment where people feel appreciated and can connect with their leadership is of the utmost importance at this time. When so many people have been fighting through the pressures of the pandemic and working through really tough circumstances, we must make sure they know their efforts are valued and recognized. On this episode of Authentic Living with Roxanne we welcome back Canada’s Recognition Expert, Sarah McVanel to share her thoughts about how you can ensure your team is getting what they need to feel the gratitude that they so richly deserve.

Sarah is a Certified Senior Organizational Development Professional (CSODP), Professional Certified Coach (PCC) and Certified Human Resources Leader (CHRL). She is one of 1500 Certified Professional Speakers (CSP) worldwide and Past-President of the Toronto Chapter of the Canadian Association of Professional Speakers (CAPS). She has a BA in Psychology, MSc in Family Relations, and Diplomas in Human Resources and Healthcare Administration. She helps individuals leverage the exponential power of recognition to retain top talent, fuel healthy teams and sustain healthy bottom lines. She speaks nationally on the topic, leads workshops, coaches leaders, and conducts organizational recognition program reviews.

As we move toward reopening workspaces and gathering again, I encourage leaders to reach out for guidance about presenting their authentic self to develop an improved workplace for everyone with less conflict as I offer executive coaching.

Quote: “I’m going in and having these conversations and making connections based on a genuine desire to connect to understand and how it’s going to help someone other than myself.” Paul Gunn

When I first met Paul, we discussed my soon-to-be-released book, ROR, Return on Relationships, Amplify Your Authentic Leadership to Build More Resilient Teams and the role he plays in his company as a truly authentic CEO. As my book launch is fast approaching, I wanted to reintroduce you to Paul and the fantastic information that he shared about servant leadership.

People today are demanding better. At home, in the workplace as well as the companies we deal with. We want to know that what we spend our money on is going to deserving and caring companies. On this episode of Authentic Living with Roxanne, we welcome servant leader Paul Gunn to share his thoughts on how we can all become more empathetic in life and in business.

Paul has developed a career around procurement, logistics and supply chain. He is highly skilled in this domain with proven results as evidenced by the firms he has owned and the stellar delivery performance records of each firm. Some of his capabilities include consulting, training and project management implementing quality management, continuous improvement and technology solutions for global organizations leading cross-functional teams in Asia, Europe, Middle East, and America. He is a proven skilled leader in lifecycle and business process management.

When I first met Shelley, I interviewed her for my latest book, ROR, Return on Relationships, Amplify Your Authentic Leadership to Build More Resilient Teams. We decided to turn that interview into a podcast. As my book launch is fast approaching, I wanted to reintroduce you to Shelley and the fantastic information that she shared about authentic leadership.

Leadership can be daunting and while becoming a great leader for your team is no easy task, going in with the right mindset will carry you a long way. On this episode of Authentic Living with Roxanne, we welcome CEO Shelley Butler, who shares her story about how a slight shift in thinking helped her become the leader she is today.

By title, Shelley is the CEO of Dovico!  She spreads a message of compassion, health and love like no other. While her day-to-day work has her doing various operational tasks and making CEO-like decisions, her greatest work comes from ensuring that everyone has a stake in Dovico’s direction.

Authentic Touch Points:

• Shelley’s path to leadership.  1:30
• Putting trust in and learning from your team.  6:30
• The “Awakening”.  9:45
• When does integrity begin?  17:00
• Paving the way for new leaders by serving first.  20:30
• Making the shift to servant leadership.  28:30
• Put people where they find their joy.  34:30
• Can we create a “new normal”?  40:00

There’s a power shifter in every great organization—someone whose purpose is to transfer power from one person to another. Shelley is Dovico’s power shifter. But instead of taking power from one person and moving it to another, Shelley helps everyone she meets to see the power they have within, and she does it with nothing more than love, dignity and respect.

As we move toward reopening workspaces and gathering again, I encourage leaders to reach out for guidance about presenting their authentic self to develop an improved workplace for everyone with less conflict through executive coaching. Click here to contact me at your convenience, or click here to Chat with Roxanne!

Great teams don’t just happen, they need to be cultivated, nurtured and cared for. On this episode of Authentic Living with Roxanne, we welcome CEO, Yves Doucet who will share his inspiration and ideas for building teams that are highly functional, greatly motivated and enjoy the atmosphere and culture that's been created by using some basic principles of energy and quantum physics.

By official title, Yves is the CEO and co-founder of a thriving timesheet company called Dovico, but he would preferably be named a “Culture Coach.” As Dovico’s “Culture Coach,” Yves helps his team find their passion and matches it with business. He genuinely believes that if the team is working aligned with their values, there is no obstacle to ingenuity and growth -both personally and professionally.

Quote: “In lieu of actual information, people will create their own stories…that’s just human nature.” Jason Reid

Chronic illness and invisible disabilities are serious topics, and I think we all know someone who has been inflicted by one or the other. Government statistics show one in three working-aged adults has at least one chronic health condition, and that number is rising dramatically each year. On this episode of Authentic Living with Roxanne, we welcome Jason Reid to share his insight and advice on how leaders and team members can create a more understanding and inclusive environment for everyone.

Chronic illness and invisible disability are topics that Jason knows well. Despite having lived with Crohn’s disease and arthritis, Jason built an impressive career in network television as a writer, award-winning producer and executive. Now he shows audiences how to overcome adversity, succeed in the face of illness, and effectively manage people with chronic diseases in the workplace.

Marijuana has been legalized in several parts of the world, and much of the negative stigma has disappeared. We see doctors prescribing it for the medical benefits of pain control in place of opiates and NSAIDs, managing nausea, giving relief from tremors and many other medical issues. On this episode of Authentic Living with Roxanne, we are talking with Laura Stack, who suffered the loss of her son Johnny to suicide, which has been attributed to his use of highly potent THC distillates.

Laura was best known in the business world for her professional moniker, The Productivity Pro. Her 30-year career as a keynote speaker, bestselling author of eight productivity books, and corporate spokesperson came to a screeching halt on November 20, 2019, when her 19-year-old son, Johnny, died by suicide after becoming psychotic from dabbing high-THC marijuana concentrates. Laura responded by forming the non-profit, Johnny's Ambassadors to educate parents and teens about the dangers of today's high-THC marijuana on adolescent brain development, mental illness, and suicide.

Overwhelm is defined as “too much, or almost too much, for one to manage”. I think that many of us are currently living in a state of overwhelm and need to make some significant changes to feel better. On this episode of Authentic Living with Roxanne, we welcome change expert Cheryl-Ann Lovie to share her journey and some great ideas to help us start on a new path to setting boundaries and creating real change for the better.

Cheryl-Ann Lovie is an entrepreneur at heart. She embodies the attributes of that title at work as well as in her everyday life – she gets s*&t done, anytime, anywhere, in any way possible. She’s known to ‘tell it like it is’ without sugar-coating anything. Cheryl-Ann is the voice of a generation of women who are driven by the “have to’s”.

The past 2 years have been challenging for everyone, there’s no doubt about it. Leaders everywhere have had a rough road navigating the continuous changes made by our respective governments and the constant demand to keep both their team and superiors happy. On this episode of Authentic Living with Roxanne, we welcome Robert and Gabriel Krenza from BlackWolf Consultants, to discuss Transformational Leadership and share ideas for making transactional changes.

Robert Krenza founded BlackWolf Consultants to offer leaders guidance on a new journey where they can learn how to transform their lives and attain their goals. Robert gathers facilitators and coaches who act as guards and teachers – sometimes strongly, sometimes gently – but always with heart and meaning. He brings the qualities of courage, perseverance, passion, challenge, compassion, community, contribution, loyalty, and integrity, to his work. He listens to deeply understand the essence of all that is and the unrealized potential in a person, a team, or an organization.

Gabriel Krenza is a graduate of Presido Graduate School with an MBA in Sustainable Leadership and Analytics and is a Senior Consultant with BlackWolf focusing on Responsible Leadership through several methodologies including Wilderness Immersions to reconnect leaders with their environmental and social ethos in their roles in global organizations. As the Founder of BlackWolf Expeditions, Gabriel’s work in both the fields of sustainability strategy and organizational development are inspired by embracing the concept that our lives are intrinsically interconnected with all other lives on this planet.

I had such a wonderful and information-filled chat with Robert & Gabriel last week that we decided to turn it into a 2-part series. In case you missed last week, here’s the link to Part I It’s not mandatory that you listen to it first, but I recommend that you do.
