Connecting online can be both more or less authentic, depending on your approach. But in the 21st Century, and especially now in the times of COVID-19, we have many new opportunities to connect with more and different people in a different way than ever before because of how we can create content online. We can leverage these opportunities to share more of ourselves, to be more thoughtful about how we share about ourselves, and build amazing connections and networks. In this re-broadcast episode, I chat with Michael D. Simmons, an award-winning serial entrepreneur, best-selling author and internationally-acclaimed speaker who is a world-class connector of people and ideas who loves to research, synthesize, and share ideas about building relationships in the 21st century. We also talk about how contexts collide online, creating new challenges for managing our personal brands and calling on us to become more holistic and authentic so that we're not trying to put up a front or share the wrong things in the wrong contexts. Michael also shares the fascinating concept of the "expert generalist" or "broker" as a massively effective way for professionals to accelerate their career success (by 65%!) and increase their own learning and the value they offer to their employers, employees, and clients. With so many people focusing on being seen as a specialist or expert, this counter-intuitive approach can be a powerful one to consider tapping into. Listen and don't forget to share with others.

It's not just what we say as leaders: it's how we say it, vocally and physically. Especially now that so much of our communication has shifted to remote communication during the time of the Coronavirus outbreak. So we're republishing a great episode to help you succeed. An expert in body language, voice, and emotion, Dr. Louise Mahler explains that the 'missing ingredient' in corporate leadership is something called vocal intelligence and that how we use our voice has a far greater impact on our success as leaders than we know. In this fascinating episode of The TalentGrow Show, Louise shares unique insights on vocal psychology, body-language, and non-verbal communication that any leader should study and practice. Learn how to inspire trust with your voice and identify inner blockages that manifest in your voice and posture that may hinder your ability to lead. There are seven key blockages according to Louise, who walks us through a few of them here. Plus, learn why vocal intelligence is especially critical for leaders in our evolving digital age!

Influential leaders tend to possess something called executive presence. It can seem like an elusive sort of charisma that is near-impossible to emulate, but it has been broken down by Susan Bates into three dimensions and fifteen aspects. On this episode of The TalentGrow Show, leadership coach, author, and speaker Greg Owen-Boger of Turpin Communication joins Halelly to discuss how leaders can leverage Bates' framework to cultivate their own executive presence and grow their influence. Listen to demystify executive presence by learning about the dimensions and aspects that comprise it, and discover the steps you can take to develop it in yourself. Greg also shares many concrete examples from his own career to help you grasp executive presence and its applications. Tune in and don't forget to share this episode with others!

The TalentGrow Show is 5 today! Happy Anniversary to us! To celebrate this momentous achievement, I thought it would be fun to walk down memory lane and pull out some gems that are potentially hiding in the first 55 episodes that I published. While I love all my episodes and guests, and am very proud of them all, I thought these were particularly good treasures to dust off and offer up for your (re)listening pleasure. So in this solo episode of The TalentGrow Show, I recap 5 episodes from the first 55 of the TalentGrow Show, plus a bonus one – the most downloaded. They cover the topics of overwhelm, engaging communication, coaching, fierce leadership, decision making, and negotiations. Enjoy!

When something positive happens, we instinctively tend to want to share our good news with others. From a relationship-building perspective, research is plentiful when it comes to supporting others in times of distress, but there is very little out there about responding constructively to someone else's good news. On this episode of The TalentGrow Show, psychologist and professor at UC Santa Barbara Shelly Gable, Ph.D. joins Halelly to discuss her theoretical and practical framework for nurturing our relationships and generating positive outcomes with our responses. Drawing from many years of research, Shelly explains why our responses to positive news make up such a key aspect of our relationships, why Active and Constructive Responding (ACR) is the most effective and authentic way to respond, and how leaders can leverage ACR to build better relationships at work and at home. Listen and remember to share this episode with others!
