Don't miss Meg Wheatley this Thursday (6/20) on "Insights at the Edge" with Tami Simon at 8pm ET/5pm PT for one hour. Register for Sounds True One >>> https://buff.ly/4eqzev0 and RSVP for this event >>> https://buff.ly/3z6Gs7q ABOUT MEG'S MOST RECENT BOOK: What Would It Be Like to Restore Sanity? What would it be like to work together again in creative and generous ways? What would it be like to be curious about who you’re with rather than judging or fearing them? What would it be like to engage together in exploring possibilities rather than withdrawing in conflict or disagreement? What would it be like to be working well together? From 50 years working with leaders globally, I state with full confidence that leadership has never been more difficult. And it’s not our fault. We’ve been good and caring leaders, we’ve led people in empowering, engaging ways to create meaningful, productive work. But now we face external conditions far beyond our control to change, dynamics intensifying at shocking speed. The perfect storm is here, created by the coalescence of climate and human-created catastrophes. As leaders dedicated to serving the causes and people we treasure, confronted by this unrelenting tsunami, what are we to do? I state my answer to this also with full confidence: We need to restore sanity by awakening the human spirit. We can achieve this only if we undertake the most challenging and meaningful work of our leader lives: Creating Islands of Sanity. An Island of Sanity is a gift of possibility and refuge created by people’s commitment to form healthy community to do meaningful work. It requires sane leaders with unshakable faith in people’s innate generosity, creativity, and kindness. It sets itself apart as an island to protect itself from the life-destroying dynamics, policies, and behaviors that oppress and deny the human spirit. No matter what is happening around us, we can discover practices that enliven our human spirits and produce meaningful contributions for this time. #books #podcasts Sounds True

Global Communication Skills Advisor & Coach | Demystifying Emotional Intelligence to increase performance and improve retention by 30% for top tier leaders and teams
PODCAST ALERT! The PRE-TABLE is really where all the stuff gets done. (Paul Adamson) But what exactly is the PRE-TABLE? You know, it's the conversation before the conversation. The opportunity before the opportunity. The forecast before the RFP. The promotion, travel, conference, or whatever "before" the public is aware. The recommendation, the sponsorship, the access, the support and encouragement…that's the PRE-TABLE and here is a way to make sure yours is strong. When we talk about networking and utilizing your network, we don't really hear about the compounding or recurring benefits of being helpful. We hear to leverage, utilize and engage your network but what about doing that with an approach to help them. My podcast guest is none other than Paul Adamson. He is a Finance leader at Amazon whose mission is helping marginalized communities while expanding his corporate brand, and community impact. I am ALWAYS inspired and impressed when we speak, and I know once you listen to this episode, you will be too. Paul teaches us how to be an Opportunity Maker, and the character traits that will help us be successful no matter where we are. As he often says, "good help will always find an audience, and "skillful negotiation is where everyone can leave feeling fulfilled."

The first half of 2024 is in the books. How’s it going?! I want to give you 5 mid-year SHIFT questions that will help you create the life you want in 2024, or anytime! This is one of the first exercises I do with my clients, and I recommend doing it at the start of each new year, or even as often as every quarter, every month, or anytime you feel shitty, stuck, or out of alignment. These questions help you identify your desired FEELINGS instead of just your desired results… … because we don’t actually want the result (i.e. the number on the scale) as much as we want how we believe we will FEEL when we have that result. Then, we often approach the process to getting the result using strategies or mindsets that are the OPPOSITE of how we want to feel. (examples: “I have to feel bad now to feel good later,” or “I have to feel stuck now to feel free later.”) That’s WHY we self-sabotage! The great news is we can start feeling our desired feelings BEFORE we get to the desired end result.

You know the drill. Each week I'm sharing three highlight thoughts and one bonus insight that I am picking up in my conversations with leaders just like you. Here goes... 1. There’s a difference between hard days and bad days. Bad days are bad. Hard days bring challenges, but often, the challenges are the gateway to what we want. 2. Your hands are the servants of your thoughts. I picked up this concept from Jewel, the musician, in a podcast. The actions you take all begin with thoughts, conscious and subconscious. Pay attention, and remember, thoughts become things. 3. Scared to live and scared to die. I’ve spent time straddling these two. I’ve been physically alive but not living a purpose-driven life. I’ve wrestled with the thought of death and been uncomfortable with the other side. The secret is getting comfortable with both, positioning yourself to take some risks and start living life. BONUS: Play with the shot clock in mind. Just like a basketball game, where you have limited time to take your shot, the opportunities you encounter in life are often finite. When opportunity’s door opens for you, walk through it and take your shot. Want these dropped into your inbox every Friday? Subscriber here: https://lnkd.in/danfbWwX

I first heard of Arthur Brooks about 3 weeks ago on Peter Attia's "The Drive" podcast and have been in full-blown consumption mode of his content ever since. I'm about halfway through his book "Build the Life You Want: The Art and Science of Getting Happier" (co-authored by Oprah Winfrey btw) and he is discussing the topic of Emotional Contagion. This is the phenomenon where we 'catch' and mirror the emotions of those around us. This isn't a new idea as Marcus Aurelius mentions it in his Meditations but it absolutely still plays a powerful role in the workplace. Positive emotions can foster teamwork, increase productivity, and improve overall job satisfaction. On the other hand, negative emotions can breed stress and reduce efficiency. As leaders and participants in a global community, it's crucial to be mindful of the emotional climate we create in our meetings and interactions with our colleagues. Also if you're interested in the original podcast - https://lnkd.in/gqeSWXD8 And Linked to his book - https://a.co/d/7f066DO

Family Business Executive Coach-Consultant-Psychologist: Solving your people problems so that you can get down to business. Family Relationships-Leadership Development-Conflict Resolution-Gen 2+
One of the things I’m most looking forward to in 2024 is…debuting my new podcast, Courageous Conflict! I don’t want family businesses and the leaders that I work with to shy away from conflict. When you avoid conflict, an issue that could have been resolved in a healthy, productive way escalates to an issue that can easily become catastrophic. This is what Courageous Conflict is all about. It’s not a compromise. It’s not a consensus. Despite what we’ve been trained to believe, that’s not the goal of resolving conflict, and it can even be a detrimental outcome. Instead, it’s about understanding the emotional side of conflict and approaching it with integrity and authenticity. It’s about leaning into the management principle of “disagree and commit” — being allowed to disagree when a decision is being made, but once that decision has been made, committing to it no matter what. As I explore the many facets of courageous conflict, I'll be inviting guests—family business owners, attorneys, family offices, as well as consultants and coaches like me who work with family businesses—to share their wins and challenges. I’ll be sharing more the closer I get to an official launch date, but I’m just so excited that I didn’t want to keep it to myself anymore. 😊 #CourageousConflict #FamilyBusiness #WorkConflict #NewPodcast
