    Next man up

    On the battlefield it is a grim reality that at any moment the men and women around you could be injured or killed, and unable to perform their vital role in the team. To keep such a loss from causing the whole unit to fail our armed forces relentlessly pursue a policy of upward training. Everyone is expected to be learning from the person ahead of them in the command structure while at the same time training those coming up behind them. While the causal situation in your organization will most likely be different, there are a myriad of reasons a person in your team might unexpectedly be unable to perform their duties. If this happens, are you prepared? In today's episode Craig and Greg honor our veterans and discuss how applying this battle-tested principle to your organization can help you to maintain effectiveness when transitions occur.  Check out the video version of this conversation.  If you'd like help getting better in this or any other area of leadership, Maximize would love to help you!

    Business By The Book

    It seems like many people put business and faith in two separate boxes, considering them entirely different topics of discussion. Craig and Greg completely disagree—the Bible is a resource for all areas of our lives, from the board room to the living room. That's why they wrote Business By The Book: a guide to help you apply biblical principles to the corporate world. In today's episode the guys preview the first book in this series, discussing the role a CEO has as a vision-caster for their organization.

    Don't settle for cooperation

    Craig and Greg promise they aren't here to nitpick your grammar, but in some instances understanding the full meaning of words can help us to realize how they are affecting our patterns of thinking. In today's episode the guys are discussing cooperation and collaboration- two words that are often used interchangeably. However, a deeper examination reveals that their differences can be the deciding factor between a surviving team and a thriving one.

    Combatting Toxicity

    When some sort of chemical or toxin is spilled in the environment it doesn't just stay put, it spreads, corrupting everything around it. The same principle is true in our organizations—toxic behaviors that are allowed to fester will spread until they consume your entire team. So put on your hazmat suit and join Craig and Greg as they address common toxic behaviors and offer strategies on how to root them out before they can take hold.
