Do You Have the Audacity to Assume You Can be Happy and Authentic in the Workplace? Deep questions with Jeff Munn, Executive Leadership Coach

I’m taking a break from posting new episodes for the rest of March because there are so many really great ones available already. Like this one with Jeff Munn, which originally aired June 8, 2020. His message still really resonates with me, and I hope it speaks to you, as well. Thank you for continuing to listen… and I’ll be back with new episodes soon.   While Jeff poses that very question at a later point in today’s conversation, first Jeff and Laura explore one of the more common threads of discussion around leadership, which starts with the fundamental question: What’s the difference between management and leadership? Today’s conversation dives in with this and an insightful discussion about the activities, tasks, nuances, and expectations for leaders unfolds as Jeff and Laura explore

Refusing to Live in Someone Else’s Box — with Christian Del Rosario, Photographer Extraordinaire EP:88

I’m taking a break from posting new episodes for the rest of March because there are so many really great ones available already. Like this one with Christian Del Rosario, which originally aired October 28, 2019. His message still really resonates with me, and I hope it speaks to you, as well. Thank you for continuing to listen… and I’ll be back with new episodes soon.   “You can’t do that.” “You have to do it this way!” “You can’t be good at all of that, you have to choose just one…” While he doesn’t come out and say it that explicitly, these are all messages Christian Del Rosario likely heard – and, thankfully, ignored – on the way to developing the artistry he creates with his cameras. You see, Christian is

Success Comes when You Surround Yourself with Complementary Partners with Business Explorer – Builder, Dave Dean

Over the course of his adulthood, Dave Dean has owned, built, been involved with, bought, sold, or closed 37 businesses; ~11 of them are still in his care today. It all started when as a young man, Dave bought the company his dad started but lost through receivership when it failed. He ‘arrogantly’ (by his own measure!) thought he could do it better. The experience was the beginning of a lifelong pursuit of learning, exploring, discovering, building, and releasing numerous businesses. Fueled by his strengths (Laura is certain he has Input, Learner, Futuristic, Strategic, Connectedness, and Relator in his top 10!), he thinks of himself as a “business butterfly,” preferring the idea of being a ‘business explorer – builder’ to the term ‘entrepreneur.’ When he becomes intrigued by an idea,

Doing it Afraid: How one Woman Came to Life through Painting with Artist Libby Scheele

I’m taking a break in the month of February to rest, refresh, and refill, and so I’m sharing some of my previous episodes that I really enjoyed and whose messages are really resonating with me — still — even today. I hope they speak to a need you have, as well. Thank you for continuing to listen… and I’ll be back with new episodes soon.   We don’t always know whom we are meant to be when we are young, but if we are observant, there are clues everywhere. For Libby Scheele, they were obvious in her fascination with color and texture and a variety of materials that could be used in artistic endeavors. When she didn’t have ‘real’ art supplies, she expressed her creativity by arranging rocks and sticks. Today, her work is much

I hope they speak to a need you have, as well. Thank you for continuing to listen… and I’ll be back with new episodes soon.   Do you ever wonder why you or someone you know does the things that they do? In this episode, Maureen Craig Mcintosh explains how all behavior is purposeful. It’s our best attempt to satisfy one of our five basic needs.
