In this episode, Andy Storch gives you access to one of the interviews from his recent online event, The Talent Development Virtual Summit. He sits down with Marshall Goldsmith, the # Leadership Coach, to discuss:

• How things have changed
• Accepting what is and not becoming fixated on outcomes you can’t control
• Focusing on the process

And so much more!

The most interesting part of the interview is when Marshall coaches me live during the interview. I was not at all prepared for this, and I'm not even sure if I responded well but I wanted to share it with you to listen and form your own opinion.

Marshall also endorsed my new book, Own Your Career Own Your Life, which you can get on Amazon now! .

And you can find the video recording from this and all the sessions in from the Talent Development Virtual Summit now available inside the member vault of the Talent Development Think Tank community I run.

In this episode, the tables are turned as Andy Storch gets into the hot seat. Andy brings in a good friend of his, executive coach Massimo Backus to interview him about his new book, Own Your Career Own Your Life, which just came out on November 16th. Andy brings in so much valuable wisdom on careers, success and fulfillment that you would want nothing short of grabbing your own copy of the book and just devouring it. The next best thing is to listen to this episode, of course, where we get a front row experience of the thought leader behind the book. Listen in as he talks about his thought processes when he wrote the book, as well as some of his most standout insights on dealing with failure, taking charge of your career and homing in on your own definition of success.

Not every slur is intended. A lot of times, these microaggressions are simply the product of the perpetrator’s unconscious bias developed from years of enculturation. That doesn’t mean, however, that unconscious bias and its consequent microaggressions are harmless and that we don’t have to do anything about them. In fact, a big part of fostering diversity, equity and inclusion in the workplace is doing the inner work among ourselves to identify our unconscious biases and root them out of our lives to the best of our ability. Joining Andy Storch in this difficult, but extremely necessary conversation is Nicole DaCosta, a Learning & Development leader at Brinker International, a global leader in the restaurant industry famously known for being the home of Chili’s® Grill & Bar. Nicole derives the greater part of her insights on this subject from her own experience as a black woman in corporate America. She works tirelessly to promote DEI not only at Brinker, but also by doing volunteer work for the nonprofit, Harmony Career Development Center.

How do you measure something as intangible as learning? If you are in the learning and development space, you may have struggled with this question. Good thing that Andy Storch is joined by Kevin M. Yates, known as the L&D Detective, who recently released the L&D Detective Kit as a free eBook on his website. Andy had a chance to interview Kevin live on LinkedIn to ask him about his detective kit and what all L&D professionals should be thinking about when it comes to measuring impact. Kevin also spoke about measuring impact on the Talent Development Virtual Summit and that recording, along with the Q&A session he did, are available inside the member vault of the Talent Development Think Tank Community.
