Speaking of Impact

Generosity is a mindset - not an event.

A generous workplace culture is a hard thing to build. I won't sugar coat.

Great leaders have to work hard at fostering the right environment.

What's easy usually builds the wrong environment. And speaking of easy, I could give you a bunch of red flags of what is a toxic leader or workplace culture. Instead, I thought I'd present some green flags - positive things.

You'll love these things in a leader and if you are one yourself, try to implement them into your processes.

Have a generous week. 😀

Some things are absolutely non-negotiable.

Today, I have the 5 that lead the list.

Some of these are talked about all the time and I fear you're being taught they are special. To me, they are table stakes. They must be present in workplace culture for it be generous.

You'll want to focus on the foundations before you try the advanced versions of anything. It takes time to build culture and you have to start with kindness, communication, authenticity, grace, and compassion.

Thanks for being a generous person. I'm sure your generous culture is well on its way to thriving.

Have a generous New Year. 🎉

2024 was a wild ride. 2025 will be even better.

Generosity is on the move. 🙌🏼

Companies are growing with great people and these people are finding fulfillment. I look forward to continued progress.

Stop trying to be happy.

Joy is so much more important.

A state of joy is such a powerful thing because it is sustainable. I am a fan of happiness - just not as pursuit. You can't expect to happy all the time so you are setting yourself up for failure and an unfulfilling pursuit.

The holiday season is known for being filled with joy but there is one thing I don't like about this - these things don't have to be saved for a one time during the year. You can celebrate and be joyful all year long.

I find that the more often you are in a state of joy the more chances you have to experience happiness. You are acutely aware of things that will make you happy. You also tend to make other people happy, which in turn, makes you happy. It's a great loop to be.

I thought I'd share some "holiday" joys that really don't have to be saved for only December.

Have a joyous and generous holiday season. 🙌🏼

Generosity is necessary for team success.

I like to think of it as the foundation of a terrific culture because it's so encouraging to people. Anyone can jump on board and feel like they are important - contributing factor to the productivity and the encouragement.

There's nothing more encouraging than encouraging someone, right?

This episode is about the most important reasons why a generous team is a winning team. I think you can have some periodic success without winning but the definition will likely be warped and it will be fleeting.

Sustained success is about everyone's workplace experience. Don't let me define it for you but this is at least a good measure. Rarely is a team filled with fulfilled people and be not effective at it's mission.

Keep these concepts in mind as you build your generous workplace culture and let your team know about it.

Have a generous day with your team. 🤝

Empathy is way more than knowing what someone is going through.

It's about sharing the emotions they are feeling. An empathetic leaders goes out of their way to feel what their people are feeling.

Are you sympathetic with your people? Great. Empathy is more. I thought I'd share a few things that can help you be more empathetic. They build on relationships and taking simple understanding to shared feeling. Use them early and often in your work. It's critical part of a generous workplace culture.

Have a generously energetic day. 💪

Instead of trying to find more energy, try making the most of what you already have.

Energy is one of those things that can feel great one minute and be elusive the next.

I find the most energetic people to not have more than the rest but to do a better job with what they have.

This time of year can be overwhelming for many. There is more work to do as the year comes to an end and there are events, parties, and other things that take up time. It's really important to manage your energy to get the most out of the most wonderful time.

I have 7 energy management techniques I've found to be really helpful for generous leaders and their generous workplace cultures.

Have a generously energetic day. 💪

Great quotes can't motivate you alone but they can be a great reminder of your purpose.

I'm a big fan of taking in the wisdom of others and applying it to your purpose.

This means you have to put the work in to develop why you do what you do. If you can find that internal source of motivation (it's more sustaining), the relevant external forces will be much more apparent.

In other words, when we know our own "why", we can easily identify that of others which we appreciate.

This episode is has 8 quotes that display this for me. I encourage you to think strongly about your own purpose and perhaps these quotes will also be great reminders for your.

Generosity is tough - we need all the support we can get. 💪

Have a generously inspirational day. 😀

Generosity ain't easy but it's great for business.

People ask me how to be generous a lot - I say "like an subscribe" 😂. Seriously though, it takes a bit of work to be generous once. It takes a lot of work to make it a mindset.

There are many ways to execute but I came up with 4 that will quickly make an impact in your life an business.

A lot of people are trying to take as much as they can from their work.

You'll want to try giving instead after you listen to this episode.

Have a generous rest of your workday. 📈

The best teacher in the world is generosity.

You might think that giving is a passive and one-sided experience but when you have the mindset it can be quite the opposite.

Some of the greatest business lessons I've learned have come from observing generosity and experiencing it's power.

People pleasing can mask itself as generosity. This leads to complacency, taking advantage of others, and overall malaise. Be careful giving people what they want and not what they need.

Assuming it's true generosity. You'll have plenty of chances to learn how it can transform lives and businesses for good.

I have 3 main lessons I've learned over the years and I share them in this episode. This is not to say there aren't other lessons or that these 3 are the most important to you. But either way, you'll find value in what a generous culture will tell you about people.

And business is all about people, right?

Take some concise notes on this one (this comes up in the episode 😉)

Learn generously today. 😀
