Speaking of Impact Bob DePasquale

You can’t expect everything that is unexpected.
I believe strongly in the virtue of resilience. It’s critical for results in business and in life.
Resilience is not expressed in times where the expected has happened. The key to expecting the unexpected is not planning for every possible scenario. This is impossible and crippling for your people and your businesses.
Instead, you have to expect to “feel” the unexpected from time to time. These are the times when you express resilience.
Take the time to plan what you can but don’t sacrifice you and your team’s ability to react and think on the fly.
Have a generous day.

Listening is the #1 skill a generous leader needs.
There are many types of listening.  So many have been studied that it can be overwhelming to learn about this critical skill.
I've noticed that certain types of listening are of high important to servant leaders and generous cultures.  I did some research and came up with 4 different kinds of listening that I felt were at the top of the list. 
There are plenty of other kinds and I encourage you to research on your own and learn which forms are significant to you.  Please share them with me as you like.
For now, you can start with these four and build a culture of generosity in your business.
Have a generous day that's full of good listening.

I don’t recommend gambling but this is a bet you should take.
There are plenty of reasons to include generosity in your workplace culture but I have 5 that came to mind immediately when I thought of this topic.
They key to all of them is that they are best experienced in community. This is why cultures of generosity attract top talent and loyal customers.
Think about these things as you try to develop systems and processes in our business. My primary recommendation is that you start from the beginning or as early as possible. It should be part of the culture as people come on board. In fact, they should be overwhelmed by its presence upon engagement.
I’d love to know your experience with these things. Be sure to let me know.
Have a generous day.

You can plan your energy.


I have three types of energy that I consider throughout my day. 
The first is external.  This is the stuff you can find to pump you up for a short period of time.  It comes from other people.
The second is created internal.  These are things that you do that result in an energized state (i.e. a workout).
The final is inherent internal.  This type of energy is most relizble and can be well predicetd.  It shuold be used consistently during those times where you're otherwise lacking energy.
This episode dives into how each of these should be used and provides some suggestions for buidling a calendar around your energy.
Have a generous day.

Every generous leaders needs to use these 3 things:


Forgiveness Compassion Empathy Each is uniwque but they all work together for good.  I break down their definitions, what they mean and in action, and how they effect each party involved.  
Make no mistake that you can't build a generous workplace culture without these as part of the environment.  This episode will help you ensure just that.
Have a generous day.

Never start the day with planning.

Start the day with a plan.
I posted about my Sunday afternoon routine on LinkedIn and people thought I was a planning freak.  Excuse the hyperbole but I think it felt like I either spend my whole Sunday planning my weerk or I have this amazing skill to set up 60 hours of work in 10 minutes.
It might be a little of both but the key thing is that I don't overplan.  Yet, I do recap what I've already planned the day before I execute.  This is a huge force for making my high leverage time and energy most efficient.
I describe what this routine is not in the episode before explaining exactly what it is.  
It helps me hit the ground running on a Monday morning because I know the actions that have to be taken before I'm ready to take them.  Let this supercharge your upcoming week.
Have a generous day.
