From the Leadership Podcast
The Accountability Ladder
#012 - Are you a victim or are you accountable? Do you wait for things to happen or do you make things happen? Your success in life, both personally and professionally, depends on whether you’re a victim hanging on to the bottom rung, or own your decisions, circumstances, and outcomes, standing (figuratively) firmly on the top rung.
The Keys to Landing your Dream Job
#011 - Do you have a dream job at a dream company? If not, listen now for the key strategies and actions to produce a track record of progression and achievement that will dramatically increase the probability of your success.
Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and the state of Belonging
#010 - Studies have shown that those organizations that value equity, diversity, and inclusion, perform better in the long run. So how do you create a diverse and inclusive team?
Be the boss you wish you had
#009 - What kind of boss would you rather work for more than anyone else? Who would you lay on the tracks for? Who would you run into the fire for? Who would you take the hill for? Run through a brick wall for? I haven’t had a perfect boss. I haven’t been one either, not even close. The perfect boss doesn’t exist, however, if you could define one, what would he or she look like? What would they be like?
A Blueprint for Success for the New Executive
#008 - Whether you've just joined a company as a new executive or new leader at any level, or you were promoted from within, your first 100 days on the job are critical to your future longevity. To ensure your success, develop and execute a 100-Day Plan.
“Yellowstone” Leadership Lessons
#007 - I love the television series “Yellowstone” from the Paramount Network. It just might be the greatest series since the Sopranos - and that's saying something. I don’t watch it for the leadership lessons, but we sure got some last Sunday.
Stand up to Bullies
#006 - Here’s the advice I’ve given to all my kids throughout their lives. If you let people walk all over you, they will. In the end, stand up for yourself and what you believe in, and stand up to bullies.
Proud to be an American
#005 - Happy Independence Day America! It’s a day to show pride, acknowledge and celebrate the sacrifices of others and the progress we’ve made, and most of all, a time to be grateful for all that we have, especially the freedom we enjoy right here in the good ‘ole USA, at least for now.
The Pain of Discipline
#004 - When you ultimately reflect on your life, will it smack of success, accomplishment, and fulfillment? Or will it ring hollow with the echos of disappointment and what could have been?
So you want that promotion?
#003 - Do you have the fundamental skills and abilities needed to be promotable and ascend the corporate ladder?
Welcome to the corporate world!
#002 - There's nothing more exciting than landing a new job with a new company. Make the right moves, develop a few key skills, and you'll have a wonderful, fulfilling career.

Don’t Let Politics Permeate Your Life
Don’t let politics permeate the workplace, dominate your life, and harden your heart. People’s beliefs of what is right and wrong have never been more clear, yet we still need to get work done, to run the business, and most importantly, to enjoy our lives with friends and family.
Managing Up
How's your relationship with your boss? Are you meeting his or her expectations? You may know how to deliver the goods, yet it's critical to have a solid relationship with your boss, the boss' boss, and other superiors on the organization chart.
The Accountability Ladder
Don’t live your life being a victim, making excuses and blaming others. Rather, own your behaviors, actions, circumstances, and outcomes.
Resumes, Curricula Vitae, and all that Jazz
Your resume, or CV as they call it across the pond and elsewhere, is your professional sales pitch. It’s literally the single most important marketing document you could have. Does yours have what it takes to get noticed? To stand out in a crowd? To get you the interview?
Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and the state of Belonging
The best teams I’ve ever led or been associated with were the most diverse teams - diverse in terms of race, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, background, education, and experience. Anyone can create a diverse team, but can you foster an inclusive environment? An environment where everyone feels they belong, and where everyone feels that their unique contribution is valued?
Be the boss you wish you had
Bosses leave an indelible impression in our minds that we literally hold onto the rest of our lives. They forge a path for us, or they don’t. They help develop us, or they don’t. They have our backs, or they don’t. They can literally determine the trajectory of our entire professional career and to some extent, the degree to which we are successful.
A Blueprint for Success for the New Executive
Congratulations! You’re a new executive! You must be thrilled! Do you think you have what it takes to be successful in this new role, simply because you were successful in your last one? Do you have a plan? Your boss and the senior executive team are watching you, and rest assured - they’re expecting big things from you.
“Yellowstone” Leadership Lessons
I love the television series “Yellowstone” from the Paramount Network. It might just be the greatest series since the Sopranos. I don’t watch it for the leadership lessons, but we sure got some last Sunday.
You ‘can’ teach a “middle-aged” dog new tricks
After 35 years of leadership roles in corporate America, I decided to do something different six months ago. I created, developed, and executed on a leadership podcast. Here's what I've learned.
Stand up to Bullies
Ever been bullied in the workplace? Yelled at? Embarrassed in front of others? Talked down to? Set up deliberately? Had your career threatened? If you’ve been in the workplace long enough, it’s bound to have happened to you. There are actions you can take to “deal with” bullies.
Proud to be an American
Happy Independence Day America! Wow! What an awesome country we live in! July 4th is a day to show pride, acknowledge and celebrate the sacrifices of others and the progress we’ve made, and most of all, a time to be grateful for all that we have, especially the freedom we enjoy right here in the good ‘ole USA, at least for now.
The Pain of Discipline
When you ultimately reflect on your life, will it smack of success, accomplishment, and fulfillment? Or will it ring hollow with the echos of disappointment and what could have been?
So you want that promotion?
If you get promoted for any other reason than competence and performance, you'll be water cooler talk.
Welcome to the corporate world!
New to the corporate world? Just jumped to a new company? Here's some advice for a successful experience and career.
Introducing…the REAL DEAL Leadership Podcast !!!
Do you want to be an extraordinary leader? To be inspired and to inspire those you lead, to achieve success beyond anything you’ve ever imagined? Well who doesn’t?
Congratulations! You’re a college graduate!
Take chances, learn to be a great communicator, and enjoy the ride. And then apply the key ingredient — passion.
Bloated excesses
At times, the leadership courage to do what needs to be done is lacking.
Leadership renewal
Your return to the workplace is a tremendous opportunity to reflect, re-set, and revitalize your leadership.
Simple pleasures
Standardization, superior service, and smiles are a winning formula to keep customers coming back.
The chain of command
Respecting the organizational hierarchy is not only proper business protocol, but it’s also the right thing to do.
Crisis leadership
Adaptability and flexibility are key leadership traits when crises occur, because a company’s current strategy and work plan may no longer be relevant.
Experts inform, leaders decide
Nothing substitutes for strong leadership, and that’s why successful organizations put the right people, in the right jobs, at the right times.
Chasing dreams
It’s much more fulfilling to be grateful for what you have, rather than resentful of what you don’t have.
