    Episode 310: Are you humanistic, compassionate and authentic?
    Sep 23 2021
    Are you humanistic, compassionate and authentic? 6 questions. 7 minutes. Pure insights. Episode 310: Successful business leaders are humanistic, compassionate and authentic. Wise words from Jared Narlock, Talent Development Speaker, Author and Coach with Peaceful Powered Leadership LLC. Transcript of Question 3: Question Number Three. I have a fictitious book with all the answers for business. What chapter would you think most companies should read?  Being authentic and humanistic that is huge for me, remembering that we are all human beings, and remembering that people, for the most part are bringing their best day in and day out. And that looks different. Some days we look sometimes and say, oh, I know what that person's best looks like, and this isn't it, but we don't know the reality of what they endured, when they started their day, or their week, and what that is and so remembering to extend grace and keeping that focus on the people because the people ultimately will get those business results and those other pieces that are in that book.

    Episode 309: Did you know that one scheduling tweak can assure you are prepared for the future?

    Did you know that one scheduling tweak can assure you are prepared for the future? 6 questions. 7 minutes. Pure insights. Episode 309: This one scheduling tweak can assure you are prepared for the future. Wise words from Dorie Clark, Duke & Columbia Business Professor and Harvard Business Review Author. The strategic thinking assessment Dorie mentions is available here. Transcript of Question 4: Question number four - other than the generic work harder, have a great attitude and care for customers, what advice or insight would you give to other business leaders? One insight that's been on my mind a lot Pete, is something that I talk about in my new book The Long Game. And fundamentally, it's a book about how to apply the principles of strategic thinking to your life and your career, and there's a section where I talked about the importance of 20% time. Now, this is something that Google popularized, it's the idea that employees would take 20% of their time to spend on kind of speculative projects that are outside the scope of their regular work. And I think this is an incredibly useful strategy both at the enterprise level and at the individual level if your company is not giving you 20% time, use your own time for 20% time, because we need to constantly be developing ourselves and learning, and sometimes it can be through listening to great podcasts like this one, it could be taking online courses, it could be reading books or doing informational interviews or building your network, but we have to keep ourselves sharp COVID showed everybody that we can't really predict what's coming down the pike. And so you need to be ready for anything. And the way to do that is to build a Swiss Army knife of skills with that 20% of time.

Wise words from Michael Lane, Managing Director of Success Resources. Transcript of Question 3: Question number three. I have a fictitious book with all the answers for business.

Everything rises and falls on leadership as per Dr. John C. Maxwell, it's everything from the leader who runs the business who you're creating the business yet on to the leaders who are at the bottom level, we're all leaders we all need to continue to develop the leaders within our team, we do that we tend to have successful businesses.
