    How to listen like a (real) leader - with Dr. Adam Hickman

    We say we want leaders who listen. But if we're being honest, a lot of what we call "listening" is really just waiting for our turn to respond. Or scanning the engagement survey results and then, do nothing. Or hosting an overly scripted town hall. Or asking employees for feedback once a year, checking the box, and moving on. But real listening? That requires better questions. Simpler questions. Braver questions. Questions like: What's not working? Where are you stuck? What are we pretending not to see? And maybe the most important one for senior leaders to ask themselves: How did we get these results in the first place? My special guest today is Dr. Adam Hickman, VP of Employee Development, Talent Management, and HRIS with Partners / The Walt Disney Company, and he's simplifying how to listen like a (real) leader. We tackle and simplify all aspects of it, including: Why he believes we don't actually have a listening problem, we have a question problem. Why leaders often avoid asking the most basic questions, even when those questions could reveal what's really broken at work. What to do after your engagement survey results come in, so feedback turns into action instead of another forgotten report. The art of asking great questions, and why leaders should not always start with the end in mind. And how to reframe engagement as a real performance driver, while also letting go of the myth that people need to show up as all-star workers every single day. Q: Are you wanting to listen like a (real) leader? If yes, this one is for you.

    How to create a people-first leadership strategy - with Christy Honeycutt

    Leadership is easy to talk about when everything is calm. But what about when the system feels stretched? When the team is tired. When the pressure is high. When the old ways of leading are no longer working… but the new way forward still feels unclear. That's where people-first leadership becomes more than a nice idea. It becomes a strategy. Because if leaders want to build strong teams, close skill gaps, make better decisions, and create cultures where people can actually do their best work, they have to start with the humans in the room. Including themselves. My special guest today is Christy Honeycutt and she's simplifying how to create a people-first leadership strategy. We tackle and simplify all aspects of it, including: Where leaders should begin when they are assessing where their team is now, identifying skill gaps, and clarifying where they want the team to go next. What it means to "hold space" for C-suite leaders and founders as they elevate, especially in high-pressure seasons of transition. How self-awareness, CliftonStrengths, and meditation can help leaders understand their strengths, regulate their emotions, and make better decisions under pressure. A sneak peek inside her upcoming book, The Inner Work of Leading in a Broken System, and the core ideas leaders need right now to reclaim agency, alignment, and purpose. And there's a moment where we totally geek out about a reality TV show on Netflix called "Outlast: the Jungle" that teaches you a lot about good (and bad!) leadership styles that (totally) translate to Corporate America. Q: Are you wanting to create a people-first leadership strategy? If yes, this one is for you.

    How to not crash out at work - with Hiba Tanvir

    Let's be honest. Work can bring out parts of us we don't always love. The sharp email. The tense meeting. The moment you feel your face get hot and your patience leave the building. The instant when one more request, one more change, one more "quick question" feels like the thing that might finally push you over the edge. And in those moments, it can feel like your brain has gone offline. You're not thinking clearly. You're reacting. You're defending. You're spiraling. You're trying not to say the thing you'll regret later. In other words… you're trying not to lose your ish at work. My special guest today is Hiba Tanvir and she's simplifying how to not crash out at work. We tackle and simplify all aspects of it, including: What emotional dysregulation can look like at work, and why it doesn't always show up as a big dramatic blow-up. The early signs we might notice in ourselves or others before we reach that breaking point.  What to do in the moment to regulate your nervous system before you react. When someone does crash out at work, what belongs to the manager, what belongs to the individual, and how both can respond with more care and accountability. What it means to "lend your calm and your cortex" when someone else is dysregulated. How her "Play & Pause" methodology can help us create just enough space to choose a better response. And in her chapter on emotional intelligence in the AI era, Hiba connects emotionally intelligent leadership to hope. So we talk about how leaders can use:  Self awareness - being aware of your needs, strengths and weaknesses Self management - what do I need in order to regulate? Social awareness - empathy and compassion for others, and reading the room - "empathy in action" Relationship-building - working together with others …to help people feel steadier, safer, and more hopeful at work. And why that is something AI simply cannot replace. Q: Are you wanting to not crash out at work? If yes, this one is for you.
