  • Do Company Values Really Matter Anymore
    A lot of businesses have their organization’s core values posted up somewhere on a wall in the building, in a corner of their website, and even on employee’s desks! And some organizations have worked hard to get their employees to memorize the core values and be able to tell someone those values at the drop of a hat. My question is, is that approach to company values doing any good for the business?
    In today’s episode, I’m talking with Gabe Krajicek, CEO of Kasasa. I’ve experienced first-hand how company values can be useless, and as a previous customer of Kasasa, I’ve seen how values can directly impact customer interactions and the company’s bottom line. Hear exactly how Gabe and his team have worked to build an incredible culture at Kasasa and how you can do the same thing in your organization, too!

  • Tornados, Turnover, & To-Do Lists
    An F4 tornado ripped through my community last month. As someone who is called to develop leaders, I cannot ignore the leadership lesson emerging from my processing of the entire event.
    In today’s episode, I’m sharing two specific potential “disasters” many organizations are being warned about right now. What is interesting is that although the warnings are being sent out, few are working on or preparing to mitigate the risk. My fear is that you may hear the warnings, but not heed the warnings…just as I did regarding the tornado in December. I don’t want you to find yourself white-knuckling your past success as unstoppable destruction happens among your organization.
    I’m wishing you improved focus and better results as you move into 2022! #LevelUp

  • Questions Leaders Should Be Asking Employees
    Wondering what it’s going to take to keep your best employees? It’s a valid concern in a world where researchers are shouting that soon there will be a big shift of people out of their current positions and organizations.
    So, as a leader, what can you do about it? Can you stop it?
    I believe you can. It starts by you getting to know your people better. When you know YOUR EMPLOYEES -- not the employees surveyed by researchers -- then your employees will give you answers on how to lead them in a way that will make them stay and go all in.
    In today’s episode I’m sharing with you a recent episode of a show I do on LinkedIn with Phil Van Hooser. We discuss this topic and I hope you have lots of helpful takeaways for your own leadership journey!

  • Mental Health Doesn’t Matter If…
    Mental health doesn’t matter at work if you don’t care about performance, employee retention, and the culture of your organization.
    If you do care about the performance from your team and retaining your best employees, then it’s time (maybe way past time) to address the mental health of your individual team members. Many of today’s employee’s demand the mental health concern from their employer’s and leaders.
    As always, let’s not make it harder than it has to be!
    In today’s episode I’m sharing with you two reasons mental health in the workplace must be addressed by leadership, how I experienced the shift in the once taboo topic of mental health, and one practical action step for managers and supervisors to start addressing your team’s mental health.
