Our nation wide-research study on High Performance shows us what makes an individual a high performer and motivation was a leading answer.  So how do we motivate out people? Let’s dive into extrinsic versus intrinsic motivation and how we as leaders develop motivation in our people. There are three components to motivation.  How do we use the three components and help our people find them too? Great leaders create the right atmosphere for motivation to grow. Let’s break it down in this episode.

We tend to overvalue intensity and undervalue consistency.  Consistency is a huge driver to achieving high performance.  So how do stay consistent and how does it serve us?  In this episode we dive into the concept and how to implement it.  Learn the habits and systems to create consistency and the growth will follow. 

Leadership moves the needle for an organization.  High performance starts with the leaders, so how we make a positive impact as leaders? How do we inspire commitment in our people?  Effective leadership starts with PARTNERSHIP.  Let’s build relationships, invest in our people, and have conversations.  Partner leaders understand that people support what they help create. Level up your leadership with this episode.

Sometimes interviews are so good you have to share them twice. This week on The Relevant Leadership Podcast, I'm re-sharing my interview with Jena Hausmann, President and CEO of Colorado Children’s Hospital. I originally titled this episode Dang Good Leadership Advice and I'm sticking with it.

Jena Hausmann is the President and CEO of Children’s Hospital in Colorado, one of the leading children’s hospitals in the world.  Jena is a tremendous leader and an even better person.  As I listened back to this interview I thought, “This is dang good leadership advice!” 

Jena shares her knowledge on women in leadership, being aware of the culture you are creating, the importance of being authentic in leadership, how important failure can be and much more.  Find our more about Jena at https://www.childrenscolorado.org/about/news/2015/april-2015/jena-hausmann-ceo/

Last week we lost my good friend, Mark Eaton, suddenly. He was a great man, husband, speaker, author & athlete. To honor him I wanted to reshare my podcast interview with Mark. Mark has an amazing story of grit and scrappiness that got him to the NBA and fueled a career as a speaker and the author of Four Commitments of A Winning Team. We talked basketball, teamwork and what it takes to be an all star in whatever you do.

On this episode, I’m talking to two therapists - Jennifer Dobberfuhl-Quinlan & David Macfarlane. This is an important conversation and, this month being Mental Health Awareness Month, I hope it creates more conversations about the mental health of those around you.
