- Why Your Team Needs Productive Conflict with Liane Davey
For the past 25 years, Liane Davey has researched and advised teams on how to achieve high performance. Known as the “teamwork doctor,” she’s worked with hundreds of teams, including 26 Global Fortune 500 companies (and counting).
Today we're discussing Liane's book, the Good Fight, about creating productive conflict with your team. Conflict has become a “dirty word.” The truth is that our teams and organizations require conflict to get things done. But, as humans, we avoid conflict and build up conflict debt by deferring and dodging the difficult decisions and our organizations are paying the price – becoming less productive, less innovative and less competitive. Individuals are paying too – suffering from overwhelming workloads, endless drama, and sleepless nights.
Liane and I are going to discuss:
- How to have healthy productive disagreements with your team
- How to best rebuild a relationship with someone you're having tension with on the team
- The surprising signs of teams with high trust
- Some incredible exercises like the tarp exercise and the U exercise to help you have healthy productive conflicts

- How to Make Empathy a Habit in Your Organization with Michael Ventura
Michael Ventura is the CEO and founder of Sub Rosa, a strategy and design firm that has worked with some of the world’s largest and most important organizations like Johnson & Johnson, Adobe, The TED Conference, Delta Airlines, and The Daily Show.
Michael's first book and the subject of our discussion today is Applied Empathy.
Empathy is a squishy word. Sometimes it’s confused with sympathy or misinterpreted as “being nice.” That isn’t empathy. Empathy is about understanding. Empathy lets us see the world from other points of view and helps us form insights that can lead us to new and better ways of thinking, being, and doing.
Michael and I are going to discuss:
- Why organization low in empathy are also slow at making decisions and face frequent miscommunications
- The many different ways to be empathic and understand others' perspectives
- The changes we can make in an organization to make empathy a habit
- And how to get people to give you honest feedback

- Kelly McGonigal Part 2 – The Joy of Movement - How Exercise Helps Us Find Happiness, Hope, Connection, and Courage
My guest this week is Kelly McGonigal. Kelly is a health psychologist and lecturer at Stanford University who specializes in understanding the mind-body connection. She is the best-selling author of The Upside of Stress – the book we discuss in part one of this show. Kelly's TED talk on the topic, "How to Make Stress Your Friend," is one of the most viewed TED talks of all time, with over 20 million views. And I can't stress enough how much her perspective, and research, have altered my relationship with stress.
In part two of the show, we discuss Kelly's brand-new book, The Joy of Movement, which explores why physical exercise is a powerful antidote to the epidemics of depression, anxiety, and loneliness. Kelly tackles some of the biggest myths about exercise and shares some very interesting research to explain exactly what movement and exercise does to us and how to harness its effects!

- Why Tiny Habits Are The Secret to Transformative Change with BJ Fogg
BJ Fogg is a Social Science Research Associate at Stanford, author, and the founder and director of the Stanford Behavior Design Lab.
In February, 2018, Wired Magazine claimed Fogg's "Stanford lab created the formula to make technology addictive." The article said that Fogg’s lab "was a toll booth for entrepreneurs and product designers on their way to Facebook and Google. Students included Nir Eyal, the bestselling author of the book, Hooked, Ed Baker, who would later become the Head of Growth at both Facebook and Uber, and Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger, the founders of Instagram.
BJ and I discuss his brand new book Tiny Habits, The Small Changes that Change Everything.
The book is based on 20 years of research and BJ's experience personally coaching over 40,000 people.
The content in the book is practical, immediately applicable and most importantly brand new. Tiny Habits is unlike any habits book you have ever read.
BJ and I are going to discuss:
- Why you shouldn't rely on willpower to create new habits
- Why emotion rather than repetition is the secret to creating habits
- Why tiny habits are the key to transforming your life,
- And how BJ's methodology was the secret to Instagram's success on habit formation
