Monday Morning Stretch: The Ripple Effect

Every parent wonders if the instruction and advice we gave our children when they were growing up will actually stick or be eventually discarded or ignored completely. I always did a silent, internal fist pump when I would see one of my sons put a napkin in their lap, hold the door for someone, or pull up in a car wearing their seat belt all on their own.

Once, as a speaker on a cruise where I had clients and industry leaders in attendance, I remember being ridiculously nervous about the behavior and formal manners of my two boys who were traveling with me. At the formal dinner, I felt like doing a happy dance when they used the correct glassware and silverware, said the appropriate “please” and “thank you’s,” asked to be excused between dessert and after-dinner drinks and then went around the table and said goodnight to each person at our table. I secretly giggled inside when everyone commented on what well-mannered boys I had raised… especially knowing that my husband and I were the only two people at the table who had any idea how many nights we had practiced all this at our dinner table prior to the cruise.

Monday Morning Stretch: Growing Leaders

Meet Aishol-pan. She is 13 years old. She’s strong. She’s brave. And, she’s a total natural. But, when the competition ends, the real test begins. It’s about the courage it takes to soar.

That’s a quote from the movie trailer for “The Eagle Huntress.” This gorgeously-photographed documentary film is about a young Kazakh girl from Mongolia who attempts to become the first female huntress to compete in the eagle festival in Ulgii, Mongolia, established in 1999. The men in her family have been eagle hunters for seven generations which has been the primary source of warm furs for clothing, meat for food, and other essentials from their sparse and frigid landscape. They have highly developed ways of training eagles to hunt for fox and other game and release the kill on command. Aishol-pan wants to follow in their footsteps, but she enters into this training against the long-held traditions of her nomadic community where generations of men have, until now, only handed down this skill and knowledge from father to son.

No doubt this is a story of a brave, determined young girl. But like the movie, “The Miracle Worker,” where the story is not really about Helen Keller but rather about her teacher, Anne Sullivan, this story is not really about Aishol-pan, at least not solely. It’s really about her father, Nurgaiv, who accepts Aishol-pan’s request to train her against the advice and approval of their community and who, in a short amount of time, must have her not only ready for the competition but more importantly for the test of implementing a successful hunt with her own eagle in the frozen and dangerous wilderness.

Monday Morning Stretch: Foundations of Leadership

If you walk around New York City, Chicago, or San Diego, it’s a given that you’re going to see a lot of tall buildings. But the only ones which qualify as skyscrapers must be at least 50 stories and over 330 feet tall. Otherwise, you’re just a “super tall” building.

The largest building on the planet today is the Burj Khalifa in Dubai which reaches 2,717 feet. The foundation for this architectural monster is over 200 feet deep. Because otherwise, well, it falls over.

When builders begin to build skyscrapers, or any building for that matter, they don’t build up first. They build down. They must first excavate tons of dirt, rocks, and debris to reach a solid enough place, often bedrock, to begin building the deep foundation that will support a structure that can safely reach for the sky.

The same is true of us. Before we can build companies and teams that reach for the sky, we must first build down to the bedrock foundations that can withstand the winds of change and storms of business. We must strengthen our core so that what the public and our clients see is solid and stable. We must develop and secure our own foundations.

Monday Morning Stretch: DON'T Start with "Why?"

If you’ve been on the planet in the last decade, you’ve no doubt been exposed to Simon Sinek’s video and book, Start with Why. Simon makes a tremendous case for the power of asking ourselves “What’s my ‘why’?” in an effort to communicate with clients, patients, and team members the emotional reason behind what we do rather than the more logical steps to do it.

I agree with Simon. If you’re embarking on any kind of self-reflection exercise or diving into your purpose or values in preparation for addressing your team, “Why?” is a great place to start and a very useful tool. But, if you are trying to communicate better in everyday situations with your team, clients, or family members, “Why?” can be a massive deal-breaker.

The conversation that changed everything for me

Once, I was just "doing my job" when my boss called me into his office. I was sure I'd be reprimanded. Instead, he challenged me, inspired me, and gave me a vision for what I could become. That moment launched my career and changed my life. More than 40 years later, I'm still here, sharing the tools and strategies in LionSpeak's Leadership Academy.

Want to learn how to communicate the way my old boss did?

Imagine a team that's truly aligned with your vision

Most leaders settle for dysfunction and drama because they're afraid to have the tough conversations. But what if you could hold your team accountable AND inspire them to reach a higher standard—without fear, guilt, or resentment?

For the past year, we've offered the LionSpeak Leadership Academy as an intimate, live experience for cohorts of 20 or fewer leaders. Each group began and ended together, moving through the program on a set schedule.

We loved the connection and transformation that format created, but we also knew the timing didn't work for everyone. So, we not only moved it to an on-demand format but also expanded and reimagined it. We are offering more resources than ever before!

The NEW Leadership Academy includes more content, more tools, more support, and more ways to apply what you're learning than ever before.

It now combines the flexibility of on-demand learning with the personal support, live coaching, and meaningful connection that leaders like you are craving.

You don't have to keep carrying the weight of your team alone.

Monday Morning Stretch: The Great Sales Match

“Matchmaker, Matchmaker, make me a match, find me a find, catch me a catch…”

For some reason, I’m on a weird kick lately to re-watch all my old favorite musicals. Those famous lyrics from, Fiddler on the Roof, haunt my head as I write this week’s Monday Morning Stretch and think about how often we complicate the communication process with a potential new client or patient.

When Tom and I were engaged to be married, we shopped for wedding venues. We had four very different experiences at the places we visited, all providing more evidence to me that most of us have the entire sales cycle backwards.

Each events coordinator introduced themselves, handed us a pre-made information packet, and immediately commenced with the “tour.” Most did manage to ask the number of guests and if we had a date yet but not one asked us what kind of a wedding we wanted or if there was anything especially important to us in choosing a location. Had they asked, I would have told them...
