  • 192. Don't Take On All of Your Team's Challenges as Your Own
    Think about when you’ve been in the situation with a team member where they tell you about a challenge they’re having and then turn it over to you. It might have happened so quickly you didn’t even realize they had done it. Or you might be so good at putting out fires in the office that you didn’t consider until now that it had been turned over to you.
    This episode shares why you shouldn't take on all of your team's challenges as your own--and what to do instead.
    Remember, as a leader, your is not to solve problems, but to help your team become better problem solvers.
    Your One Bold Move: Coach your team members to handle their own challenges by giving them the responsibility, support, and encouragement they need.
    For more on this topic, check out the HBR article "Who's Got the Monkey?" I mentioned in the episode, included on my website in the 6 Articles to Help You Be the Best Boss You Can Be: https://www.shannaahocking.com/blog/2021/4/2/6-articles-to-help-you-be-the-best-boss-you-can-be

  • 187. Start Small to Do Something Big
    One year ago as I scrolled through Instagram, I saw a call to action from Molly Becky, Founder of Messy.fm, that said, "Who is a leader that should have their own podcast? Hint: It may be you."

    This episode shares three things to consider as you do and why starting small leads to BIG things.

  • 186. The Update You Need to Send to Your Team
    Just over a year ago, our office prepared to send all staff home to begin working remotely for an unknown period of time.

    If you haven't started this yet, it's not too late. This activity can work for your team of four or 40 and the episode provides four tips to get you started.
    Your One Bold Move: Send a note to your team to connect with them as people. This might just be the update you and your team need.

  • 183. How to Stay Motivated When You're Not Receiving Recognition
    When’s the last time you were recognized at work? I hope it’s been this week. (Even more than once!) Research shows that employees are feeling even less recognized since the pandemic started, and that’s going to be a significant challenge for employee retention in the long term. It can be especially difficult to stay motivated at work when you’re not feeling valued.
    This episode shares four ways you can provide reinforcement for yourself, if you're not getting what you need from your manager.
    Your One Bold Move: Find ways to recognize your own progress and accomplishments, if you’re not getting what you need from your manager. Remember how much value you bring to your organization, and keep showing up for yourself. That is definitely something worth recognizing.
