A New Direction Jay Izso

Why can't we all just get along? As the generations work in the same space, the differences seem to be magnified. The lines have been drawn. Everything seems to be black and white with no gray area. If you are a "baby boomer" chances are you find the millennials and Gen Z generations frustrating, perhaps seeing them as entitled, lazy, or arrogant. If you are Gen X like me, it's all about independence, we find the "baby boomers" closed minded and controlling. If you are a milennial you want to collaborate and not be left out, you want balance, and find meaning and purpose. If you are a Gen Z when it comes to work you want to know, "What's in it for me". Let's open our minds for a minute. The fact is we were all raised in different era's. The way we were raised was completely different from each other. Each generation speaks a different language. There are technological differences, the speed of information differences, and more...the truth is no generation is right...we are just different, and that's where we need to start. On this episode of A New Direction we have with us generational expert Chris De Santis talking about his amazing and insightful book: "Why I Find Your Irritating: Navigating Generational Friction at Work".



Chris De Santis book "Why I Find You Irritating: Navigating Generational Friction at Work" is an eye opening and revealing look at how the different generations came to be, and how they view working in today's workforce.  The book examines how we have come to have the biased views we have of each generation and the Chris gives us ways to help combat those biases and treat each generation as they were meant to be treated by giving us some skill training in both our behavior and mindset when it comes to the different generations.  The book is a must read for every CEO, Owner, Founder, Entrepreneur, Manager, and employee.  You will come to understand when it comes to generations.  "Why I Find You So Irritating".

Are you as successful as you want to be in your life? How about your business? How about your career? Research has demonstrated that how you think determines the level of success regardless of how you define it, that you can achieve. Researcher and Best Selling Author Dr. Ryan Gottfredson joins us again on this episode of A New Direction to dig deeper into the four mindets that can create success or can kill it.  The sad truth is that most of us are in complete denial about our mindsets, believing we are better than we truly are... Dr. Gottfredson sheds light on four mindsets from his book "Success Mindsets". Think of them on a continuum.



The four mindsets are:



Growth or Fixed Mindsets

Open or Closed Mindsets

Promotion or Prevention Mindsets

Outward or Inward Mindsets



Ryan Gottfredson's book, Success Mindsets: Your Keys to Unlocking Greater Success in Your Life, Work, & Leadership is an absolute deep dive into our mindsets and how they affect our life, our work, our behavior, and our success.  As we take a deeper dive into the book we must come to realize that our own upbringing has influenced much of our mindsets, and that they are most often not serving us well, not to mention they do not serve others at all.  Success Mindsets is a perfect book for you, your team, and your clients.  If you would like to take the Success Mindsets Assessment go to:  www.ryangottfredson.com/successmindsets

So often we wonder why we do not get the results we are looking for. We will typically blame a person or group of people for our failures and mistakes. If you are leading a team you will frequently be tempted to follow the addage of "fire fast and hire slow". But are these really problems that are beyond your control or problems that you could control if your mindset was different? The problem is we get into denial believe that we have the right mindsets. If I were to ask you right now do you have a "closed" or "open" mindset you would undoubtedly say "open". Yet your behavior says, "closed", your team may even say "closed". That's because we don't know our mindsets well and what it would take to truly change them. Fortunately, on this episode of A New Direction Best Selling Author Dr. Ryan Gottfredson walks us through the four mindsets and how by changing them we can become more successful in every area of our life.



Ryan Gottfredson's book: Success Mindsets:  Your Keys to Unlocking Greater Success in Your Life, Work & Leadership is one of the most eye opening, life changing books I have ever read.  If you take this book seriously it will change you, your work, the way you lead, and ultimately the way you live your life.  In Success Mindsets Ryan Gottfredson focuses on four primary mindsets.  "Growth vs Fixed Mindsets", "Open vs. Closed Mindsets", "Promotion vs. Prevention Mindsets", and "Outward vs. Inward Mindsets".  As he takes you on a deeper dive of each one, there will undoubtably come a point where you see yourself along the contiuum of each.  In fact, if you would like to evaluate yourself in each of these mindsets.  Ryan Gottfredson will let you take his assessment for free by clicking on ryangottfredson.com/successmindsets  Truly a life changing book!

Did you know that according to Gallup only 36% of employees are actually engaged in their work? That means basically 2 out 3 employees just do a job without having a purpose. We currently live in an era of "Quiet Quitting"...just doing enough to not get fired. Why? Becaue they cannot find a purpose in their work.  What does that mean to you and your business? What lack of employee engagement and purpose means is less productivity, lower morale, fewer innovative ideas, and ultimately less profit. So what can you do increase employee engagement? Help them find their purpose.  How? There is an answer. And on this episode of A New Direction best selling author Steve Curtin ( "Delight Your Customers") raises your employee engagement by aligning their work purpose with your company values and with some one-on-one converstations known as the "The Revelation Conversation"



Steve Curtin author of the best selling book "Delight Your Customers" has a brand new eye opening book for every business entitled, "The Revelation Conversation: Inspire Greater Employee Engagement by Connecting to Purpose".  What makes this book such a game changer is that finally help the employee connect to a "work purpose".  Why does their work matter?  How does their work truly make an impact?  What brings meaning to their work?  Just think about it if your employees knew the answers to those questions what would you see happen in your business...one thing is for sure...you wouldn't worry about "quiet quitting", and you find yourself in the most profitable position you have ever been in.

It has been said, "there are no business problems, but only personal problems that show up in your business." As one who coaches business professionals at every level, I have found this to be 100% true. When our lives lack purpose, meaning, or we feel have not impact, we are living a life that is unfulfilling. The external rewards only take us so far. The accumulation of things and money dissilusion us with power that we mistake as fulfillment. The truth is you and I have been placed on this planet for a much bigger purpose. And it's not so we can accumulate "stuff". No we want "meaning" in our work. We ultimately want to make an impact on the lives of others. And when we can connect that dots in our life and business that we are in fact serving a greater purpose and that we have impact on our world around us...that's fulfillment. But how do we get there? Thankfully for us on this episode of A New Direction Will Schirmer returns with his brand new book..."Fulfilled: Finding Joy & Prosperity in Life". Will digs into you and gives us practical guidance to live the life we all want to live.



Will Schirmer's latest book: "Fulfilled: Finding Joy and Prosperity in Life" is a winner!  This book will hold you accountable to you.  It is divided into 6 sections with the first section entitled "Character" are the foundational building blocks by which the remaining  5 sections can rest on.  Those 4 Character stones are: Integrity, Humility, Accountability, and Compassion and Forgiveness.  The rest of the book rests on these corner stones that the house of fulfillment can be built one.  The book is amazing deep dive into you so that you can live a purpose filled, meaningful, impactful, and fulfilled life.  Get yourself and your loved ones a copy of "Fulfilled" it is a great read!

Whether you are an Owner, CEO, Manager, or an Employee. One thing is absolutely true that when we trust each other it is easier for us to together as a team work be more productive, impactful, and certainly more profitable. Then why do we have such a difficult time getting our team of people to trust and "play nice" with each other so that we can experience the benefits.



Often times we focus on Whether you are an Owner, CEO, Manager, or an Employee. One thing is absolutely true that when we all work together as a team work is more productive, impactful, and certainly more profitable. Then why do we have such a difficult time getting our team of people to "play nice" with each other so that we can experience the benefits.



Often times we focus on micromanagement disquised as accountability to drive our teams, but micromanagement never builds trust and accountability alone does not bring the team together, nor does it ensure "teamwork". So what really is lacking when our team or teams are not dedicatedly working together? Well, to borrow a quote from the great singer Billy Joel...It's a matter of trust.



And fortunately on this episode of A New Direction Business Trust Expert from Australia Marie-Claire Ross shares her researched "Integrated Trust Building System" to help you and you team or teams get better connected, get more productive, make a bigger impact, and ultimately become more profitable.



Marie-Claire's book: Trusted to Thrive is an absolute comprehensive guide into building trust between you as a leader and your team.  There is no doubt this is going to take hard work.  But the research she has conducted for the book as well as her own make "Trusted to Thrive" a powerful set of tools to build or rebuild any business or organization into the productive, efficient and profitable place that is was meant to be.
