The Kingsley Grant Show: Where Emotional Intelligence (EI/EQ) and Leadership Skills Intersect

+++ MUST HAVE IT +++

As a young person, I used to think there were some things in life I HAD TO HAVE or else.

Sometimes I would envision extreme outcomes if I never had them or found a way to get them, whatever it was.

Was that your experience as well?

The older I got, the more I realized that:

But there were somethings that life required me to have, which I had to acquire such as:

In this episode, you'll discover 6 Traits that are MUST-HAVE if you are going to become the leader that succeeds where others failed ... The Emotelligent Leader. These traits were first mentioned by Dr. Travis Bradberry, but I expanded on them through a fresh pair of lenses.

+++ ENROLLMENT IS A STRATEGY +++

How often have you seen a sign like this: Open For Enrollment?

I tend to see it a lot during the Summertime when kids are out of school and businesses are competing to get a jump on kids' summer activities. Getting the kids in and as many as they can is the business' objectives.

No kids, no business.

Many of these businesses use a lot of incentives to get them to sign up early.

This strategy is one that leaders need to adopt when it comes to getting their people to have an early buy-in to the vision and mission of the organization.

What if leaders "enrolled" their people into the early stages of planning?

What if they approached their leadership from a bottom-up rather than a top-down position?

What if?

In this episode, our guest Nicole Jansen dives into a concept called Enrollment that provides answers to these questions and more.

+++ GUT FEELING NOT ENOUGH +++

Have you ever said to yourself, "I should have gone with my gut feelings?"

I know I have. 

The times I've said that is when something turned out the way I thought it might have but I didn't go with my original gut feelings. I either talked myself out of it or had someone or something influenced me otherwise.

But what if your gut feeling is not enough or even reliable?

In this episode, our guest has some surprising research and examples of what happens when leaders make decisions based on their gut feelings and the disastrous outcome that followed.

Even if you are not a leader, you will have some very insightful takeaways.

+++ TRIED & PROVEN +++

I don't know about you, but if I'm going to try something new, I want to make sure it has already been tested and proven to do what it was intended to do.

Is that true of you as well?

I have participated in medical test trials of certain products, but before I said yes, I wanted to make sure the medicine has already been on the market and been tested prior.

Not everyone is going to be open to doing this. And I understand why.

However, if it could make my life better in some way, I'm open to it.

So it is with what works and what doesn't work in getting people to show up and do their best work. 

There are some key provisions that leaders can make available that can skyrocket employee engagement and make a huge difference. You will discover what they are within this episode.

+++ SKILLS NEEDED +++

So many people today are just one skill away from their best hope but don't even realize it.

Some were just one skill away but didn't realize it and gave up too soon.

I believe that life is made up of a number of skills and if we are able to get better at them, the better our lives would be.

This is so true in the area of leadership. 

How many managers/leaders have "bombed out" on what could have been their best opportunity to shape lives and leave a legacy, but because they lacked a few learnable skills, they fell by the wayside.

I've seen this happen more times than not.

The sad part is, it didn't have to be that way.

In this episode, you'll discover why and also learn how to not become another failed leader/manager by being exposed to the 7 most important skills all managers and leaders must develop if they're going to succeed in the 21st century.

+++ GOLDEN RULE WORKS +++

I'm sure you, like me, have heard about the Golden Rule at some point in our lives.

Do you remember what you were taught?

I was taught that I'm to do to others what I'd like for them to do to me.

Wow!

That gave me a reason to pause but I must be honest to say, I've not done a good job following it as I should.

What would happen if we followed the Golden Rule as it was intended?

Can you imagine what the world would be like? What about the workplace?

This is the goal of this episode. It is designed to give you a blueprint of how to create that kind of "world" whether in your workplace or in your home.

+++ WATCH YOUR LIPS +++

I grew up hearing a chorus that goes like this:

"Watch your lips, watch your lips what they say

Watch your lips, watch your lips what they say

For there is a Father above, looking down in tender love

Watch your lips, watch your lips what they say."

This song was to help us be mindful of what it is we say. 

We were to speak kindly to others.

What would happen if leaders adopted this song and made it a filter through which they speak to their people?

What would happen if everyone made this their song?

In this episode, you will discover 3 Phrases That Many leaders use that are undermining their leadership and some of them are not even aware of it. You will also discover what better phrases to use.
