The Navigating Leadership Podcast

Last week we started our conversation with these words from President Eisenhower, "Leadership is the art of getting other people to do what you want done, but because they want to do it.". We shared some content from the new book by Dr. Zoe Chance, "Influence Is Your Superpower." This week, we touch on another tool for living a life of influence, charisma. This episode will give you an up-close look at how you can be more charismatic and increase your influence with almost anyone.

"Leadership is the art of getting other people to do what you want done, but because they want to do it." President Eisenhower spoke those words when he was the Supreme Commander for the Allied Forces. How can we get people to do what we want them to and make it their idea? It's called Influence. In this episode, Marisa and David discuss a book he just read by Dr. Zoe Chance titled "Influence is Your Supper Power." They discuss key tips for being even more influential in all of your interactions. A great podcast that will give you tools to use today.

You have a position that says you are a leader. How are you doing? Are you really a leader? You've been given a position with a title and have been invited to the leadership table. That's great news. The bad news is that leadership has very little to do with position, and if you stay at this level, you won't succeed in leadership. In This episode, Marisa and David discuss four key aspects of leadership. If you do all four, you will be an exceptional leader. This podcast might just change your leadership trajectory.

Last week we looked at a very unique and impressive leader, Bill Tindall. This week, David went back to the Apollo program and wrote about Dr. John C. Houbolt. Houbolt was the one person who believed that a Lunar Orbit Rendezvous was the only way to land on the moon successfully and return home. In the face of brutal opposition and personal attacks, he wrote a letter to Robert Seamans, the Associate Administrator at NASA. Houbolt changed the minds of NASA. We have the history to see he was right. In this episode, Marisa and David take a look at the keys to having Crucial Conversations. Often things need to be said. The future depends on it.

In chemistry, we learn that a catalyst is a substance that enables a chemical reaction to proceed at a usually faster rate or under different conditions than otherwise possible. People are also catalysts. We can be a catalyst for good or bad. In this episode, Marisa and Dave discuss seven characteristics that will make us a catalyst for good.

With only one in three employees feeling engaged at work, how do we keep those we have recently hired? Yes, our employee engagement numbers are better than the rest of the world, but how can we drive those percentages up. How can we make them feel more like our team? It just might be time for us as leaders to get personal. This week, Marisa and David discuss how we can connect, engage and, yes, get personal with our team.

When companies hire people, they go through a process of onboarding. Far too often, we stress the same sterile details just like 99 % of all organizations and never point out how we are different and why working with us matters. Because of this, one-third of our new hires will look for a new job within six months. In this episode, Marisa and David discuss why onboarding and Re-Boarding are so important, and they share tips on how to do it more successfully.
