Get Heard with Ian Roth

Today's episode Features Dr. Stanley Ward. He is the founder and principal of Influence Coaching, LLC and is an esteemed leadership coach. We discuss burnout and learning to manage the drive that helps you be a great leader while not doing damage to yourself and those around you.

View yourself and others as "engines." Some of us are diesel engines(heavy loads at low rpm), others are gasoline (same loads, higher RPM) but cannot go as far.

Dr. Ward also mentions a book by Thomas Kilman and talks about how we can think of all conflicts as concern for self or a concern for others. In identifying these, try using the phrase, "Here's what I need from you, what do you need from me?"

If work is not getting done and if good people are in place, assume it is processes. Burnout can come from being micromanaged. Also being withdrawn from people and being cynical.

Today's guest is Susan Sloan, the author of A Seat at the Table: Women, Diplomacy, and Lessons for the World. She's not only an author, but also a world travel-having been to all seven continents. Susan discusses how bringing people of different backgrounds, races and genders can give us strength in numbers. The thought that the people making the decisions to affect others should roughly reflect the demographics of the people they represent.

In leadership, strength in numbers can be positive or negative. They can be used to make positive change or enable groupthink. Susan also speaks of gender equality and going into detail of some gender attributes and how utilizing them together in the workplace is the "secret sauce." Gender attributes are not all-encompassing, but being aware of them in addition to finding your team's strengths and weaknesses can take your team to the next level.

Through Susan's studies, she's discovered the ideal percentage breakdown between genders in the workplace. I'm not going to give it away, listen to the episode!

To be successful in leadership, you need to have GRIT.

What is grit? Well according to the article mentioned/linked below, GRIT is having the passion and perseverance for long-term and meaningful goals. You can be smart and talented but without grit, all of your natural talents could quickly turn into wasted potential.

You can become grittier by recognizing that things are difficult and make the conscious decision to keep pushing yourself. Persevere through the struggle knowing that you will come out on the other end, in the long term, better for it.

This episode revolves around an episode of the Order of Man Podcast that I listened to. There's a lot of great stuff in the episode, and I encourage you to check it out-link below.

The Privilege Mindset. Sure, some people are born with unique opportunities that others do not have at birth. Is the expectation that I NOT capitalize/leverage those gifts that I was given so that I can make others feel better? Absolutely not. If you have gifts or advantages (even if they are "unfair") USE THEM.

Just because people have something, does not always mean that you cannot have something. You are not fat, just because someone else it ripped. You are not poor, because someone else is rich. It's a great way to think about life in general.

If you show me someone who is ripped (in shape) I will show you someone who does more stuff than you. This doesn't just apply to working out. Think about it in general. For this example, people are in great shape still have the same feelings everyone else does. There's days they don't feel like working out because they are tired, sore, busy, etc. But the difference between that person and others is that they suck it up and still do it. They make the decision to execute and get to work when it is much easier to do nothing.

Be obsessed with visions. Picture your goals and dreams coming to fruition. Visualize what will occur and how it looks and feels when you achieve that goal. Also, look at your goals and think about the type of person who is already there. The example is owning a $26 million home. Sure, it's easy to do the math of what it takes to get there (NOT easy to earn the money to get there) but imagine what the person who is already there does. How does he live his life? What does he do when he wakes up? How does he treat his spouse? How does he treat his kids? How does he run his business? How does he lead in his community?

Why do people get triggered? It's because someone else has something, and the person who is triggered because he is not willing to do the work to get it. Plain and simple.

I don't like movements or people that tell you to settle where you are. You should never settle for mediocrity and should ALWAYS (yes, an absolute) try to be better. If you are paying for a coach and he is telling you that "you are enough," what are you paying that person for?

Coaches should be pushing you and putting you in uncomfortable situations so that you grow and become better. Growth and long-term success does not come from being constantly comfortable.

We do not have control over other peoples' opinions. We should not change ourselves with the intent of changing someone's opinion. Other peoples' opinions are outside of our control. So that means we could change ourselves (internal decision within our control) and we still may not change the opinion of another person (external decision, outside of our control). Don't waste your time and energy trying to change for others. If you want to change, be deliberate about it and do it for YOU!

Being mediocre is addicting. The "you are enough" movement encourages that addiction to mediocrity. Be more than mediocre, be great!

People who talk the most trash, are often doing the least. Agree?

Joey Held is a fellow podcaster who hosts two podcasts Good People, Cool Things and Parks and Wrecked and is a pro on storytelling.

Joey discusses storytelling and ways to effectively communicate to your listeners. Some easy ways are simply putting yourself in the shoes (or shoe) of your audience in order to build relatability and credibility.

Think of a comedian who makes a living telling jokes about fatherhood and other adult related topics. That comedian then decides to take his act to college campuses. The story (or jokes, in this case) are not relatable to the audience, therefore there were not seen as "funny." In this example, the comedian was able to figure out the disparity and then tweaked his message to speak to his audience.

If all you are trying to do is promote yourself, it will not turn out well! Learn about your audience and make the story about them!
