    How Pressure Corrupts Well-Meaning Leaders with Sabina Nawaz

    In this episode of Transform Your Workplace, host Brandon Laws sits down with global executive coach and author Sabina Nawaz to discuss the unseen pressures of leadership and how they can unknowingly change the way we lead. Drawing from her own experience as a former Microsoft executive, Nawaz shares how relentless pressure—not power—can corrupt even the most well-intentioned leaders. Through practical strategies, she offers a path forward for leaders to stay connected, self-aware, and intentional in their management approach. Don’t let pressure derail your leadership—tune in now to learn how to lead with clarity, connection, and confidence.   TAKEAWAYS Leadership pressure can quietly push managers toward efficiency over empathy, distancing them from their teams. Strengths in previous roles, like efficiency or attention to detail, can be misinterpreted negatively in leadership. Employees often avoid giving honest feedback to leaders, leading to blind spots and poor decisions. When leaders voice their opinions first, others may hesitate to challenge them, creating blind consensus. Small habits, like putting away your phone in meetings, can improve leadership presence and connection. Leaders are always being watched—small actions and reactions can significantly impact team morale. Leadership is about creating an environment where others succeed, not doing all the work yourself.   A QUICK GLIMPSE INTO OUR PODCAST  🔊 Podcast: Transform Your Workplace, sponsored by Xenium HR 🎙️  Host: Brandon Laws 📋  his own words: “The Transform Your Workplace podcast is your go-to source for the latest workplace trends, big ideas, and time-tested methods straight from the mouths of industry experts and respected thought-leaders.

    How to Level the Field - Data-Driven Fairness with Siri Chilazi

    In this episode of Transform Your Workplace, Siri Chilazi breaks down how small, practical changes can make hiring and workplace culture more fair and effective. She challenges the idea that bias training alone fixes workplace inequities and instead shows how data-driven tweaks can lead to real results. Chilazi also dives into common hiring biases, the power of accountability, and why companies that commit to fairness attract better talent. If you're a leader looking for simple, research-backed ways to improve your workplace, tune in today!   TAKEAWAYS Small changes in hiring practices can reduce bias and help employers focus on what matters. Bias training alone isn’t enough to create fairness; structural and data-driven changes are needed to drive real impact. Data should be more than just charts and reports—it should be used to identify gaps and take meaningful action toward equity. Transparency and accountability push organizations to follow through on diversity and inclusion efforts. Workplace norms shape behavior, and leaders can actively influence these norms to create a more inclusive culture. People naturally gravitate toward those similar to them, making structured hiring processes essential to reduce bias. Leaders don’t have to overhaul everything at once—small, intentional shifts can create big results over time.   A QUICK GLIMPSE INTO OUR PODCAST  🔊 Podcast: Transform Your Workplace, sponsored by Xenium HR 🎙️  Host: Brandon Laws 📋  his own words: “The Transform Your Workplace podcast is your go-to source for the latest workplace trends, big ideas, and time-tested methods straight from the mouths of industry experts and respected thought-leaders.

    From Wellness to Well-Being- Redefining Culture with Mark Mohammadpour

    In this episode of Transform Your Workplace, Mark Mohammadpour, Founder and Chief Well-Being Officer at Chasing the Sun, challenges the idea of enterprise-wide culture, emphasizing that workplace wellness is built at the team level. He argues that true well-being goes beyond perks—it’s about creating an environment where employees feel valued and supported. “Is my life better because I work here?” he asks, urging leaders to rethink benefits and communication. Tune in for insights on building a workplace culture that prioritizes both people and business success.   TAKEAWAYS Workplace culture is defined by the relationships between employees and their direct teams. True well-being isn’t just gym stipends or meditation apps but includes financial, social, career, and community health. Many employees don’t fully utilize company benefits due to an awareness gap that better communication can bridge. Managers play a crucial role in fostering a culture of well-being by prioritizing connection, clarity, and team-specific needs. Employees stay with companies where they feel valued and see opportunities for growth. Employees are willing to provide feedback, but only if leadership listens and takes meaningful action.   A QUICK GLIMPSE INTO OUR PODCAST  🔊 Podcast: Transform Your Workplace, sponsored by Xenium HR 🎙️  Host: Brandon Laws 📋  his own words: “The Transform Your Workplace podcast is your go-to source for the latest workplace trends, big ideas, and time-tested methods straight from the mouths of industry experts and respected thought-leaders.

    Cultivating Audacity: Why Playing It Safe is the Real Risk

    In this episode of Transform Your Workplace, Emmy-winning sports broadcaster Anne Marie Anderson challenges us to rethink audacity — not as arrogance, but as the courage to take bold risks. She shares how a life-changing moment early in her career pushed her to stop waiting and start saying “yes” to adventure, opportunity, and growth. In this eye-opening discussion, Anderson proves that real success comes from action, not hesitation. Are you fostering a culture where bold ideas thrive, or are you letting fear and doubt hold your team back? Tune in to learn how to lead with audacity.   TAKEAWAYS Audacity is about taking bold risks, not arrogance, and it can be developed over time. Waiting for the “perfect” time can be riskier than taking the leap, as opportunities can disappear in an instant. Saying “yes” to challenges and taking risks is essential for growth. Fear of failure, rejection, and judgment never truly disappear, but success comes from learning to navigate them. Understanding the difference between urgent and important tasks helps prioritize long-term goals over short-term distractions. Success is rarely a solo journey — having a strong support system of mentors and challengers fosters bold decision-making. Growth requires change, and staying the same only ensures stagnation and missed opportunities.   A QUICK GLIMPSE INTO OUR PODCAST  🔊 Podcast: Transform Your Workplace, sponsored by Xenium HR 🎙️  Host: Brandon Laws 📋  his own words: “The Transform Your Workplace podcast is your go-to source for the latest workplace trends, big ideas, and time-tested methods straight from the mouths of industry experts and respected thought-leaders.

    Could Empathy Be Your Leadership Superpower?

    In this episode of Transform Your Workplace, Maria Ross unpacks insights from her book The Empathy Dilemma, all about how leaders can balance performance, people, and personal boundaries without sacrificing success. She debunks myths about empathy, explains its bottom-line impact, and shares practical ways to build a thriving, high-performing workplace. Tune in to learn how empathy can be your most powerful leadership tool.   TAKEAWAYS True empathy goes beyond kindness; it’s about understanding others’ perspectives and making better decisions. Empathy involves gathering information, while compassion turns that understanding into meaningful action. Employees with empathetic leaders are more innovative, engaged, and productive, driving better business outcomes. Effective leaders use empathy as a strategic strength, balancing performance with people’s needs. Jumping in with personal stories or solutions can derail connection whereas true empathy focuses on listening first. Instead of treating others as you want to be treated, empathy means treating people as they want to be treated. With five generations in the workforce, understanding different perspectives fosters stronger collaboration. Leaders who model and reward empathy set the foundation for a thriving workplace culture.   A QUICK GLIMPSE INTO OUR PODCAST  🔊 Podcast: Transform Your Workplace, sponsored by Xenium HR 🎙️  Host: Brandon Laws 📋  his own words: “The Transform Your Workplace podcast is your go-to source for the latest workplace trends, big ideas, and time-tested methods straight from the mouths of industry experts and respected thought-leaders.

    In this episode, host Brandon Laws sits down with Dr. Christie Smith, the author of Essential: How Distributed Teams, Generative AI, and Global Shifts Are Creating a New Human-Powered Leadership. They explore how traditional leadership models are falling short and how combining human insight with AI is driving faster growth, deeper engagement, and a new set of power skills. The discussion highlights the urgent need for empathy, continuous learning, and genuine connection in today’s rapidly shifting business landscape. Sponsored by Xenium HR, a company dedicated to supporting small businesses with innovative and personalized HR solutions, this episode offers a fresh perspective on leading in an AI-driven world. Listeners are invited to like, subscribe, and join the journey into the future of leadership.   TAKEAWAYS Leaders must develop "emotional maturity" rather than just emotional intelligence, moving beyond self-interest to truly understand and support their employees' needs, challenges, and personal contexts. Organizations need to prioritize continuous learning and development, integrating it into daily work rather than treating it as a "side of desk" activity, especially as the half-life of skills continues to shorten. Self-care is essential for effective leadership, with Smith emphasizing that leaders must practice genuine self-care, self-forgiveness, and gratitude to build the resilience needed to face today's complex challenges.   A QUICK GLIMPSE INTO OUR PODCAST  🔊 Podcast: Transform Your Workplace, sponsored by Xenium HR 🎙️  Host: Brandon Laws 📋  his own words: “The Transform Your Workplace podcast is your go-to source for the latest workplace trends, big ideas, and time-tested methods straight from the mouths of industry experts and respected thought-leaders.

    Breaking Barriers: How Courage Fuels Connection and Communication with Michelle Gladieux

    In this episode of Transform Your Workplace, Michelle Gladieux, author of Communicate with Courage, explores the four hidden challenges of effective communication and shares practical strategies for overcoming them. From embracing vulnerability to balancing authority and empathy, this conversation is packed with actionable insights to help you communicate with authenticity and purpose.    TAKEAWAYS Bravery is a critical component of effective communication as it allows us to take risks and avoid regret. Hiding from risk stems from fear of exposing vulnerabilities, which can hinder personal growth and authentic connections. Clinging to being right often blocks the opportunity to learn from others’ perspectives and experiences. Pessimistic self-talk can negatively color communication, but choosing optimism can transform both interactions and outlooks. Settling for "good enough" prevents individuals from reaching their full potential in meaningful situations. Balancing vulnerability with authority can humanize communication, especially for those in leadership roles. Sharing personal communication goals with others helps shift perceptions and fosters accountability. Thoughtful self-reflection and feedback-seeking are essential for continuous growth as a communicator.   A QUICK GLIMPSE INTO OUR PODCAST  🔊 Podcast: Transform Your Workplace, sponsored by Xenium HR 🎙️  Host: Brandon Laws 📋  his own words: “The Transform Your Workplace podcast is your go-to source for the latest workplace trends, big ideas, and time-tested methods straight from the mouths of industry experts and respected thought-leaders.
