  • Dana White - Authentic Leader of the UFC

    Thank you for all of your support. Please let us know what you think about our podcast and what topic you may want to hear from us. Leaders, Lead Well!

    Dana White's leadership in the UFC exemplifies a blend of authoritative management, strong personal branding, entrepreneurial vision, and direct community engagement. His style has garnered praise for its effectiveness in transforming the UFC into a global brand, while also facing criticism for its occasionally abrasive nature. Nonetheless, his impact on the sport's growth and popularity is indisputable.

    However, this leadership style is not without its detractors. Critics argue that his approach can be overly controlling and may lack empathy, particularly regarding fighter welfare, compensation, and working conditions. White's methods have resulted in significant success for the UFC, as well as substantial criticism, underscoring a leadership style that is as controversial as it is effective within the realm of professional MMA.

    Rich and Maikel jump into the ring of authentic leadership on this episode of Mainline Executive Coaching ACT.

  • DEI is DOA

    Thank you for all of your support. Please let us know what you think about our podcast and what topic you may want to hear from us. Leaders, Lead Well!

    A few years back, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) were championed as the remedy for workplace inequities. It aimed to create a future where marginalized voices, justice-impacted individuals, and underrepresented communities could achieve equitable standing in a corporate world historically defined by systemic bias. 

    It did not work that way, not even close.

    Mandatory diversity training became platforms for personal agendas, and terms like 'equity' became buzzwords used without clear definitions, which made them easy targets for criticism and left employees feeling confused or alienated rather than inspired. 

    CEOs are now halting their DEI initiatives due to years of 'guilt hiring' individuals with civil rights backgrounds instead of those with corporate expertise. The once hottest position in America, Chief Diversity Officer, is now viewed as nothing more than a token position with no real power to make effective organizational change. 

    In short, DEI turned into a barrage of unmet promises, poor communication, and the manipulative weaponization of what was intended to be a unifying concept. So why is DEI now DOA?

    Join Rich and Maikel as we tackle DEI on this episode of Mainline Executive Coaching ACT.

  • Leadership in a Pinch: Are Your Leadership Skills Up To Task?

    Thank you for all of your support. Please let us know what you think about our podcast and what topic you may want to hear from us. Leaders, Lead Well!

    We tend to assume that leadership takes place under stable circumstances. Many of our theories of leadership conceptualize leadership under these “normal” and stable conditions. But what about situations where quick, effective decisions are critical? In times of crisis, effective leadership requires making tough decisions, communicating clearly and decisively, and inspiring confidence in others. This may involve thinking outside the box, taking risks, and being open to new ideas and perspectives.

    Leaders who are prepared to face potential crises possess qualities such as resilience, courage, the ability to think strategically under pressure, and emotional intelligence. 

    Rich and Maikel discuss leading in a pinch in this episode of Mainline Executive Coaching ACT.

  • Leading Beyond Limits: Redefining Age and Careers with John Tarnoff

    Thank you for all of your support. Please let us know what you think about our podcast and what topic you may want to hear from us. Leaders, Lead Well!

    You're a mid-career professional. Maybe sporting a little more gray than you did just a few years ago. You may have just lost your job, or feel that ageism has crept into your office and you are getting lost because the system doesn't know how to value people approaching or after 50. Yourself included. 

    The simple fact of the matter is that age-based discrimination is alive and well, the workforce is becoming increasingly multi-generational, and careers are becoming less linear and more portfolio-based. Worse yet, the hiring system is broken! 

    So instead of trying to turn back the clock, or try to repeat the years,  you need to take back control over your career, define the value you deliver, and get your network to sell that for you.

    John Tarnoff is a career transition coach who helps people build more sustainable, meaningful, and purposeful careers that align with their values and their most prized talents.

    John joins Rich and Maikel as we discuss the importance of redefining age and careers on this episode of Mainline Executive Coaching ACT.
