Job hunting is uncomfortable. That’s not the problem.

On this week’s episode of Private Sessions, David talks with Cameron, who’s in the middle of a full-time job search.

Cameron is a seven in Follow Thru, meaning structure and routine are where he naturally thrives. But job hunting rarely offers either.

His approach isn’t to force himself into a different personality. He keeps the parts of his day he can control (a set wake up time, a consistent routine) and uses that stability to handle the parts that aren’t comfortable at all.

Leaders often get this backwards.

Setting a high bar isn't the hard part... the hard part is making that bar achievable.

David Kolbe's take: if the goal is to change the world, the leader's job is to make that path as clear as possible, not just demand more effort. When a team falls short, it's rarely fear of a challenge. It's the path forward not being clear enough.

If your partner double checks research you already did, it's not about you.

In this new episode of Private Sessions, David and Jim talk about what happens when two people in a relationship both need to dig into information themselves. If she redoes the research you've already handed her, or asks a dozen follow up questions, that instinct isn't a trust issue, nor is it something to fix.

Some people are hardwired to change things, constantly looking for ways to improve and change their business.

He flew missions where he couldn't afford to guess.

Jim spent his career as a military pilot, and he also had trust issues. There wasn't anything wrong with that because that is how he's wired to minimize risk.

In this new podcast episode, David and Jim talk about how some people need to be the expert on everything they're involved in, and what that instinct looks like once you understand it instead of fighting it.

Some people naturally build systems. Some maintain them. Others adapt or ditch them when they stop working.

None is better. They're just different ways of getting things done.

The problem comes when you force yourself to organize like someone else.

Know your instinctive strengths. Organize your way.

It’s so easy to doubt yourself in business.

That’s especially true when you solve problems and take action differently than your business partner without realizing that’s where the tension is building.

Which means actually discovering your strengths can be incredibly affirming, and an important catalyst for personal and business growth.

It certainly was for Dana Anspach and her business, Sensible Money!

Some people thrive on the same routine every week, while others dread it before it even starts.

David Kolbe and Alexandra break down why rigid time blocking doesn't work for everyone, and what to do instead: keep it vague, keep it open, and let yourself decide what matters most in the moment.

Kolbe Certified™ Consultants encounter so many professionals with a vision of what success looks like in their heads.

But, as Kathy Kolbe famously stated, “success is the freedom to be yourself.”

This example, brought to use by Kolbe Consultants Susan Spritz Myers and Whitney Capps, is just one example of the magic that occurs when people stop trying to be like others and start embracing themselves.
