    Navigating Change: Leadership in Times of Transition

    I am well aware that Kamala Harris and her team will not listen to my little podcast....but I use her current situation as an example for businesses who have to lead in chaotic times. Situations often happen that allow for leaders to rise to the occasion. I recorded this 24 hours after Joe Biden stepped out of the run for president....so we do not know who will fill the top of the ticket for the 2024 election --but at this time it looks like the VP will need to step into the spotlight and lead her party and this nation. But business people have to reinvent and lead all the time. In this episode of "Making Waves at C-Level," we dive into the essential strategies for leading through times of change and transition. Using the potential shift in the Democratic Party from President Biden to Vice President Kamala Harris as a case study, we explore how leaders can guide their teams with transparency, vision, and empathy. Drawing from personal experiences, I share insights on changing the direction of my speaking business and managing a professional association. This episode is packed with practical advice on how to communicate effectively, involve your team, and maintain a positive outlook during times of uncertainty—all while staying non-political and focused on leadership principles.

    764. Community Building

    Community Building matters. Get involved in your community. Join a local business group / non-profit. If in Austin, TX - think about supporting the Austin Technology Council. But even if it's not my organization even if you don't live anywhere near Central Texas make sure that you're supporting somebody some group that is fighting for the common good of building community in your area. Same thing is true in your industry. I'm super active in the National Speakers Association because in addition to running ATC I'm a working professional speaker who will give about 25 keynotes this year around the country and I will tell you That I never could have found success in that very weird lonely business if it hadn't been for me getting involved and supporting and volunteering with the National Speakers Association. So if you're a plumber get involved with the National Plumbers Association. If you're a locksmith get involved with the National Locksmiths Association. Whatever industry you're in make sure that you're uplifting your industry in addition to some things that are local in your community. I have 5 reasons why I think it's super important that you make community building important starting right now- 5 reasons: 1. Innovation and Collaboration: A strong community fosters collaboration and the sharing of ideas, which can lead to innovative solutions and advancements in technology. Networking events, meetups, and collaborative spaces encourage professionals to work together, sparking creativity and new ventures. 2. Talent Attraction and Retention: Building a supportive and vibrant tech community makes Austin an attractive destination for top talent. Professionals are more likely to relocate and stay in an area where they feel a sense of belonging and have access to a network of peers and mentors. 3. Resource Sharing and Support: A well-connected community provides a platform for sharing resources, knowledge, and expertise. Startups and small businesses can benefit from the collective experience and resources of the community, helping them overcome challenges and grow more efficiently. 4. Economic Growth and Stability: A thriving tech community contributes to the local economy by creating jobs, attracting investment, and fostering entrepreneurship. The synergy within the community can lead to the establishment of successful companies, which in turn drives economic development and stability. 5. Personal and Professional Development: Community building offers opportunities for continuous learning and professional growth. Access to workshops, mentorship programs, and networking events helps individuals stay updated with industry trends, develop new skills, and advance their careers, while also building meaningful relationships. #community #keynotespeaker #communitybuilding Learn more about your ad choices.
