    Ep137 Self-leadership, with Andrew Bryant

    Ep137 Self-leadership, with Andrew Bryant

    Self-leadership is the practice of intentionally influencing your thinking and feeling towards your objectives. To influence your thinking and feeling you have to become aware of the thoughts and feelings you're having and drive those thoughts and feelings towards your objectives with intentionality. And that makes you the driver of your life rather than the passenger.

    Ep135 Leaders Using Both Sides of the Brain, with Sonia Jeantet

    Ep135 Leaders Using Both Sides of the Brain, with Sonia Jeantet

    Neuropsychology demonstrates that the human brain cannot ignore a question. Questions activate the relevant parts of the brain to provide relevant answers. The trick is to know what questions to ask!

    Author of The Integrative Brain, my guest is Sonia Jeantet who developed the Integrative Leader model, leveraging the full potential of one's thinking abilities through wholebrain thinking.

    [9:00] An integrative leader is going to take a look at the business. It's almost like, if you were doing a body scan and you were trying to see like, well, what parts of is, is my head healthy, is my heart healthy, is my stomach healthy?

    Start wherever you want to start. Ideally, you start in the left brain because that's where it requires more of the analytical part.

    And so you basically say like, so what business are we in?
    What is it that we really do here?
    What is it that we really are known for?
    Is that still relevant today?

    And then the next one would be to go to the right brain and try something else is going to the why. And basically, it's the understand, why are we doing this?
    Why are we using this technology?
    Why are we in a specific market?
    Why?
    Why would . . .?
    Why do our . . . ?
    e.g. why do our clients use our products?
    Why do they use our services?

    So then at that point in time, you sort of the overall bigger picture of the business.

    Now, let's go into how . . .
    How would we implement it?
    return on uh implementation
    who should be involved with this,
    who, who are, who should be on the project,
    who are our clients,
    who do we need to interact with in order to make this happen?

    And then stepping outside of that into the bigger picture, taking all four quadrants into consideration is so based on all of that,
    Where are we? Are we at the beginning phase? Are we at the end of a particular era?
    Do we need to start thinking about doing something differently?
    And then the last one is so when do we do this?
    When do we launch, when do we make this happen?

    Ep132 The Bonfire Moment, with Martin Gonzalez, Google HQ Org Dev

    Ep132 The Bonfire Moment, with Martin Gonzalez, Google HQ Org Dev

    Most startups fail not because of a bad product, poor timing, or mismanaged cash, but because of people problems: conflicts over strategy, decision-making, and team culture.
    Martin Gonzalez co-authored ''The Bonfire Moment'' with Josh Yellin; the book launches today. Get it here: https://www.bonfiremoment.com/
    View the video version on Spotify or HERE: https://youtu.be/C3wWCPEKNA0
    Even the smartest entrepreneurs have been derailed by soft problems:

    How do you fire a loyal friend who’s not up to par?

    How do you motivate your team to give their all?

    What happens when egos and emotions overpower facts and reason?


    ===
    7 key strategies are cornerstones of The Bonfire Moment feedback structure:
     
    1 Treat people like volunteers
    2 Protect the team from distractions
    3 Invite disagreement
    4 Minimize unnecessary micromanagement
    5 Preserve interpersonal equity
    6 Keep pace with expertise
    7 Overcome discouragement
    ===
    4 TRAPS –
    The trap of Speed
    The trap of the Inner Circle
    The trap of the Maverick Mindset
    The trap of Confidence
     
    Why maverick ideas can lead startups into trouble?
     What are the 6 most common maverick beliefs?
     
    1. The myth of equal equity: Co-founders should receive equal equity in return for
    equal commitment and equal contributions.
     
    2. The myth of shared command: Power and decision-making should be shared equally among cofounders.
     
     
    3. The myth of scaling without hierarchy: Layers of management should be
    avoided as the company grows, because they create bureaucracy and slow progress.
     
    4. The myth of structural harmony: Disputes between functional roles represent
    a failure point that should be fixed.
     
    5. The myth of conflict-free growth:
     
    A strong culture should be able to minimize or even prevent all interpersonal conflict, even as the team grows.
     
    6. The myth of sustained heroics: Heroic extra effort is necessary for the long
    haul, not just during the startup’s earliest months.

    The Bonfire Moment has proven effective with hundreds of teams of all sizes around the world—from the smallest startups to large organizations—significantly improving their cohesion, focus and effectiveness.
    Now this book teaches leaders the principles behind The Bonfire Moment and how to run the workshop on their own. It’s ideal for anyone who needs a committed and resilient team to achieve big goals.
