Some of you may not know this, but I’ve been writing this blog for over 10 years now, which of course, means that you end up covering a lot of different topics and ideas around leadership. But what it also means is that after a point, you get the urge to shake things up and try something new.
It’s with this in mind that I’m pleased to share this latest episode of my leadership podcast, “Leadership Biz Cafe” where I inaugurate this brand new feature, Leadership Espresso Shot.
With the Leadership Espresso Shot feature, I’ll select a specific idea around leadership and share with you insights and tools to improve the way you lead going forward. Normally, these are the kinds of lessons and actionable advice I share with audience members that attend my keynotes or corporate training sessions, which is why I’m excited to now have a new platform to share these with my podcast audience as well.
Now if you’ve had the chance to hear one of my keynotes or corporate training sessions, you probably remember how I love to share stories from which I pull out actionable steps that leaders can start using today. Given how this is the first installment of Leadership Espresso Shot on my podcast, I figure what better way to kickstart this than to share one of these stories, specifically one that will help you learn how to create a compelling organizational vision to energize your employees.
Over the course of this episode, you’ll learn about:
- The 4 key elements President Kennedy employed in his famous “We choose to go to the Moon” speech to rally people around his ambitious vision, and one overlooked element behind his famous declaration that was key to igniting a nation’s ambition to make his vision a reality.
- The surprising revelation a manufacturing company about their organizational vision that helped them transform a disengaged workforce with high turnover to a highly motivated employee base that boosted the company’s profit margin.
- What researchers have found as the real character trait that identifies top performers and how this can help leaders communicate a vision that motivates employees to bring their best efforts to an organization’s vision.
I’m very excited about this new feature and I can’t wait to share even more of my leadership insights through my leadership podcast.
And don’t forget you can now stream all episodes from my show, and find the show notes for past episodes, as well as find links to listen to my show on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, and other streaming platforms on the brand new Leadership Biz Cafe podcast page on my website.
Finally, I’d appreciate it if you could subscribe, rate, and comment about my show on your preferred podcasting streaming platform to help continue to support this show.
