  • Wow Them With Your Weakness
    Many leaders still believe in the never let them see you sweat mentality. And there are situations where I’d agree. But, at other times, I don’t agree.

  • Legos, Leadership & Leveling Up
    It’s not a bad idea for leadership to involve employees in hopes that they will increase their knowledge, become more invested in the work, and overall become a stronger asset for the team.  
     But, involvement is only half of the solution that will earn you those results you want. What leaders must do is both involve AND engage employees.  
    In today’s episode, were going to break down the “what, how, and why” behind involving and engaging employees.

  • Talk business to me, baby!
    People change – we all do. Leaders who don’t understand how their diverse followers have changed could potentially be left with demotivated, underperforming, unengaged employees. Even worse, one day you may find yourself questioning why you’ve just received your best employee’s two-week notice.  
    In today’s episode I’m sharing with you several questions to help kickstart conversations with your people that will unlock answers to how you can best delegate responsibilities, evaluate performance, and strengthen your leader/employee relationship. 
     As we kick off 2021, I challenge you to take your leadership to the next level. Get to know your team better so you can help everyone accomplish their goals – including yours – this year! #LevelUp
