    How to Become a Corporate Athlete (Bonus Interview)

    High-performance is often viewed as the result of mental toughness—someone’s ability to focus, work hard, and get stuff done. But what if mental strength is just one component? In Harvard Business Review’s 2001 article, “The Making of a Corporate Athlete”, the high-performance pyramid is revealed to include four key areas. And this performance pyramid rings true with what we’ve at Building Champions seen contribute to the success of the lives and careers of our executive coaching clients. In this interview style podcast episode, join our CEO & Founder Daniel Harkavy and Executive Coach Todd Mosetter, as they revisit HBR’s article, its relevance for today, and how you can directly apply its learnings to make positive and healthy changes to strengthen your own leadership fitness.

    Protecting Your Mindset

    One way to prevent a weed from growing is by proactively planting something else before the weed has a chance to take root. And the same is true for our mindset. When you plant positive and healthy thoughts in your mind, it’s less likely that the negative ones will successfully take over. In this podcast episode, we head back to the garden to learn what fighting weeds, pests and threats can teach us about protecting our own mindset.

    How a Fault Line Can Shake Your Team’s Foundation

    Fault lines: a break or fracture in the ground—sometimes just a crack, thin and barely noticeable. Setting the stage for disaster, if tension builds along a fault line and then releases, we get an earthquake. Many teams experience something similar, slight divisions and differences that create challenges. And when left unchecked, those foundations can shake even the strongest of teams. In this podcast episode, learn from Professor Kim Blisnuik all about fault lines, how to find them and what to do when you see one.

    What to Do When You Hit Your Capacity

    If you have a capacity problem, you either reduce flow or increase size—and it’s vital to understand the variables and risk factors that can cause the limit to be reached. When we, as leaders, hit our capacity we need to either find a way to reduce the flow or grow our team and resources. But before we reach capacity, we can expand our leadership by properly resourcing, prioritizing, and delegating. In this podcast episode, learn from Joel Ayres of the Tualatin Valley Water District just how important it is to monitor capacity so that you can stay ahead of the demand curve and allow your work to flow with efficiency.

    Controlling the Process Not the Outcome

    We like to think we have control over outcomes—but we really don’t. What we do have control over though is the process. An athlete disciplines themselves to get enough sleep, eat nutritiously, exercise, and practice, but they can’t control the weather on game day or whether the opposition shows up in a way that turns the outcome of the game in their favor. It’s the same in leadership—we can pour ourselves into the process, but we can’t always guarantee the outcome. In this podcast episode, learn from pickleball champion, Bonnie Williams, on how focusing on what you can control will ultimately help you trust yourself and the process you take to get the results you want.
