Criticism is baked into leadership. Any change you make, whether good or bad, will be met with some level of criticism either internally or externally. Other times, you'll be in the position of having to express criticism of a decision someone on your team made. Navigating criticism in a productive way can be tricky, but luckily Craig and Greg are here to help! In this episode, the guys discuss how the right kind of criticism can be empowering for your organization.

Automatic habits are an integral part of our everyday lives. From driving a car to the way we tie our shoes, these habits help us all the time with very little thought. Of course, habits aren’t limited to these mundane tasks, we also form them in other areas, like our leadership. As a leader, it’s important to be self-reflective of our habits, and make sure they are taking us in the direction we want to go. In this episode, Craig and Greg discuss how cultivating the right habits will help you flourish as a leader.

If you said, “No,” are you sure? Sometimes micromanagement can come out of good intentions, or as we focus on a project, we as leaders can slide into it without even realizing it. In this episode, Craig and Greg discuss why micromanagement is bad for your leadership, how to identify if you've fallen into this trap, and, most importantly how to free yourself to soar into a place of macro-leadership.
