So you have transitioned to a new place of leadership and you want to know how you’re doing. What becomes your scorecard? How do you evaluate your leadership success at your new location.

On this episode of enNovo Radio, we take a look at the scorecard you use to when you go somewhere new. There are 3 items to examine:

1. Communication

2. Credibility (and there are 3 types of credibility when you move to a new leadership environment).

3. Your decision-making.

I talk about each of these and give you a way to develop a scorecard so that you can regularly examine your leadership skills and make adjustments based upon those scores.

If you use the scorecard every couple of months, or at the end of each quarter, you will have a good idea of how you’re doing as a leader, and areas you need to work on. You’ll also build relationships that will help you within the organization.

I was talking to a friend the other day, and they said, “Hey, you know I’m moving to a new company. What should I do, and what should I not do when I get there?”

In today’s enNovo Radio podcast, we talk about what you should do, and what you shouldn’t do when you move to a different position of leadership. I lay out three major items that will help you make a healthy transition to leadership in a new position in a new department or a completely new organization.

Everyone is speaking the language of leadership. And everyone wants to become a great leader. But what makes a great leader?

Business coach Christy Geiger believes it all boils down to the ability to make decisions. In this episode of enNovo Radio, we talk about that, and I nicely challenge her on it. It makes for a great discussion on what makes a great leader.

Check out Christy’s services and writing at her website Synergy Strategies.

Also, check out our previous episode on trends in leadership.

We all follow something. We have a framework that guides our decision-making and our actions. It may be religion, it may be a philosophical framework or it may even be the ways of a mentor who shaped our thinking.

We have been shaped into the person we are by life experiences, people in our lives and a belief system that even informs our “gut”.

In this short(er) podcast, we talk about that.

In this week’s enNovo Radio podcast, I get to talk with Christy Geiger, who is a coach and owner of Synergy Strategies. Christy is a business and life coach, working largely with executives and IBO’s to save time, energy and money while they build their organizations and businesses. Her background in counseling & human resources, allows her to quickly understand people and how the business world works.

I know Christy well because she was my coach for over a year and working with her transformed my life. She’s now a great friend.

In this podcast, we talk about trends and issues she has found coaching leaders over the past few years. It’s a great conversation and one I really enjoyed.

In an interview with Sherri Paules, CEO of Healthcare National Marketing, she noted that one of the ways she empowers her employees is to ask them every year how she can help them achieve their goals. I talk about this, along with some questions leaders should ask from leadership coach Stefani Yorges, Ph.D. found here:
