  • +++ IT'S IN THE GENIUS +++

    You may have heard the phrase, "It's in the genes!" Right?

    Normally when the phrase is used as a way of highlighting skills, it is generally used in a celebratory way to make sure you know this is something that cannot be duplicated because it is in the genes.

    I tend to see this a lot in the sports industry as players celebrate their skills and pridefully proclaim where those kinds of skills originate.

    But when last have you heard someone say, "It's in the genius?"

    I would dare say, very little or never.

    Well, this episode, even though it doesn't use the "it's in the genius" phrase, implies that leaders who tap into their zone of genius and find their true self are almost unstoppable. Take a listen as our guest - Ana Liebel - explains.

    ++++++++++

    Who is ANA LIEBEL?

    Anna is a leadership and team development consultant, a global citizen with a Ukrainian heart, and a tech project manager dedicated to people growth.

    With an education from three European countries, 6+ years of project management experience within various industries, and leading cross-functional and international teams, Anna is well-equipped to bring a new perspective to the challenges that modern leaders are occupied with.

    Anna helps leaders reclaim their genius zone by eliminating reactivity, transforming their leadership, and becoming catalysts of a thriving company culture.

  • +++ STORIES SELL +++

    It's amazing how we are more apt to remember stories than we do facts.

    I'm able to remember a place, person, or event more if I have an associated story attached.

    However, if you were to tell me facts and expect me to remember as I do stories, forget it. It ain't happening.

    This is why someone coined this phrase: Facts tell. Stories sell. Oh, how true this is.

    Why is it then that leaders don't use more stories in communicating with their people?

    I believe one of the reasons is vulnerability. It does take some vulnerability to tell stories especially those that are more personal in nature. 

    In today's episode of The Kingsley Grant Show, you'll hear our guest - Jared Buckley - tell a very moving story of his daughter and how it shifted his leadership mindset. He also helps us understand how to be more vulnerable and how to do so even under stress. Take a listen.

  • +++ PASSING IT ON +++

    There are many things in life worth passing on to those who are behind us. We have a responsibility as leaders in whatever form that takes, to make sure those we are leading are better equipped for the life ahead of them.

    But the catch is this: not everyone who is in leadership or has that title is skilled to pass on what is necessary for those following.

    The good news is that we all can learn how to do a better job IF we are open to learning what it really takes.

    This is what great leaders know, but you can too.

    In this episode, our guest - Kevin Harris - helps us understand 5 secrets that a great mentor knows that will help leaders become better positioned to pass on the necessary skills, wisdom, and knowledge to those they lead.

  • +++ YOUR BLINDSPOTS +++

    Oh goody ... blindspots.

    What are they? Where do I look for them? Does everyone have them?

    Blindspots used in the context of people relationship has to do with the inability to see what others see. That is the simplest way that I can put it.

    The problem is that some people are not open to receiving feedback that calls attention to their blindspot(s). They will simply deny or ignore it.

    Make sure you are not one of those who do. Your future success is at stake.

    To better understand why this is so, our guest - Jeff Nischwitz - takes us on a journey in this episode of The Kingsley Grant Show and helps us better understand what is at stake.

  • +++ YOUR REPUTATION +++

    I grew up learning the importance of having a good reputation. 

    It was drilled into me that my reputation was one of the most valuable things to protect with everything in me.

    This idea came from the Proverbs where Solomon made this statement: "A good reputation is more desirable than great wealth ..." 

    As important as great wealth is, reputation beats that hands down.

    Having a good reputation is also a must for leaders.

    They need to realize that their reputation is what keeps them when their skills fail them.

    At some point, we may have a situation where the only thing that will keep our people standing with us, is our reputation. 

    And that is what our guest - Bill Coletti - talks about in this episode. As you listen, you will hear how Bill explains what this looks like and how to go about creating this kind of reputation.

    Here is a quote from this interview: Your company owns its brand, but the public owns your reputation.

    Who is BILL COLETTI?

    Bill is a reputation-management, crisis-communications, and professional development, expert.

    When relationships are critical to your business, your reputation is one of the most important assets you manage.

  • +++ MISS TAKE +++

    No, I didn't make a mistake in my spelling. It was intentional.

    But that is not what mistakes are. They are not intentional. It is something that happens because you or I attempted something that didn't work out the way we thought.

    That what a mistake is.

    Some people are afraid of attempting new things because of the possibility of making a mistake.

    They want to have such a "perfect" record that they don't attempt something new; take risks.

    But that is not only how we make mistakes. We can make mistakes with what we didn't do.

    Say what!

    How can that be?

    You'll discover how that works as you listen to this episode. 

    In this episode, I discussed how I made a mistake that could jeopardize that which I've worked so hard for and how you too might make a similar mistake, and how to avoid it.

  • +++ AH, KINDNESS +++

    There are some words that are seemingly becoming extinct in the times we are living in. Kindness happens to be one of them.

    It would seem that people, in general, forgot how to be kind, not to mention many of those that have been assigned the title of a leader.

    Is it any wonder why a leader who practices kindness, tends to garnish the support of their people in ways that are hard to explain?

    I've seen this many times over.

    Unfortunately, the narrative that gets the most public playtime is of those who lead in an opposite manner.

    And that is why today's episode of The Kingsley Grant Show is so vitally important. 

    In this episode, you'll hear our guest - Cole Baker Bagwell - break down for us the importance of leading with kindness. Take a listen.

  • +++ ALWAYS ESSENTIAL +++

    How often have you heard the terms non-essential and essential as it relates to the pandemic and lock-downs? Have you, like me, ever wondered who determines something or someone as essential?

    To classify something or someone as essential means everything or everyone else is non-essential. Is that what is being conveyed?

    Here's what I know, the label of essential is determined by who is in need at the moment. 

    To the hungry, it's the one who provides food.

    To the thirsty, it's the one who provides a drink.

    To the homeless, it's the one who provides shelter. 

    Having said that, I believe the term essential can be used in the context of skills. 

    Every successful leader became successful because they mastered a few essential skills.

    In this episode of The Kingsley Grant Show, our guests - Brett Cooper and Evans Kerrigan, will help us understand what leadership essential skills are needed to succeed in today's workplace.

  • +++ IT'S IN THE PRACTICE +++

    Have you ever heard the phrase, "practice becomes perfect?"

    What are your thoughts on that? Do you believe it is true?

    I don't and here's why.

    If it did, we would have a lot of perfect people in the world, by now. Wouldn't we?

    So many have practiced so hard and yet come up short ... because it is impossible.

    And when you've put in all the work and not get the perfection that was promised, you become frustrated. Am I right or am I right? 

    Here's what I believe: PRACTICE BECOMES PERMANENT! 

    One of the practices that are super important for you in your leadership capacity is self-control. 

    In this episode, you'll discover why practicing self-management or self-control is so vitally important to your leadership success and why it makes the best kind of leaders.

  • +++ YES, AND IN LIFE +++

    Notice the word AND. It is a very useful word when you want to truly engage people in a conversation. It is the opposite of using the word BUT. 

    How many times have you been in conversation and someone says something and follows up immediately with the word BUT? When he or she did, what was your gut reaction?

    If you are like me, your system went into alert and tensed up as you braced for what would come next. Isn't that so?

    The word BUT tend to negate all that came prior to its insertion into the conversation.

    However, if that person was able to skillfully use the word AND instead of BUT, the outcome would be a whole lot different. Wouldn't it?

    In this episode of The Kingsley Grant Show, you'll discover why emotional self-awareness is the most important skill you need to get better results in your professional and personal relationships.

  • +++ PLATE IS FULL +++

    Do you feel at times that your "plate" is so full that if you added one more task to it, you would go insane?

    I have been there.

    And the crazy thing is that sometimes I find a way to add one more task to my plate. Isn't that crazy? 

    I'm sure I'm not the only one. You might have done the same thing as well.

    The question is, why do we do that to ourselves? Let me make it more personal, why do I do that to myself? Do you have an answer?

    I do know what you and I need. We need to create margins in our lives so that we can be more effective in what we do. Right?

    In this episode, our guest - Wayne Herring - will share some insights on how to create margins in your life and achieve a balanced life so you can lead more effectively.

  • +++ SOMEONE SOMEWHERE +++

    Every one of us struggles with one thing or another. There are some people who are not able to relate to your struggle. But if you look long and hard, you'll find someone who does.

    None of us are exempt from struggles. 

    With that in mind, we can safely say, we are not the only one that has a certain struggle even though we may feel that way at times.

    As a coach and licensed therapist, I get to hear people's struggles constantly.

    One of the struggles that are presented mostly by men, even though some women struggle as well, is that of pornography.

    Porn is a multi-billion dollar industry and there are multiple thousands of people, mainly men, who are addicted to it.

    But what about a leader?

    Does this addiction to pornography have any effect on how they lead others?

    In this episode, you'll hear whether or not leaders who struggle with pornography are negatively affected in their work and if so, what to do about it.

  • +++ SOFT AS STEEL +++

    I know this sounds like a contradiction. Right?

    Soft and steel don't go together. Is this a mistake?

    On the surface, it seems like these two words should not be used together because steel is always seen as something tough. As a matter of fact, those are the words that are used together: tough as steel.

    However, there is a term which I'm sure you have heard, which is, soft skills. You've heard that, right?

    Unfortunately, the way the phrase soft skills is normally used can be misleading.

    What if I told you that soft skills are one of the hardest skills to learn in the context of relationships?

    In this episode, our guest - Dennis Doran - will walk us through the process of using soft skills to build people to be tough as steel. Take a listen.

  • +++ ONLY 2 FOR NOW +++

    You can find many lists on what makes a leader great and they are almost always different. You will find some overlap here and there but for the most part, you are going to decide which list is most accurate.

    I must admit that they all will have something helpful for the reader. I have benefited from that myself.

    But at the end of the day, I'm left to decide for myself because it's too much to sift through.

    Has that been your experience?

    What if this list could be shortened, like really shortened? Would you be more inclined to want to know what they are?

    Glad you said yes because in this episode of The Kingsley Grant show, our guest - Tom Connally - shared with us 2 guiding principles that set great leaders apart and how you can easily make them your own. Take a listen for yourself.

  • +++ THE MINDSET +++

    I came across this quote that I believe captures the kind of mindset needed to make a difference in our world. Here it is: “Risk more than others think is safe. Care more than others think is wise. Dream more than others think is practical. Expect more than others think is possible.” – Claude T. Bissell

    What do you think? Would you agree with my opening statement now that you've read the quote for yourself? Let me know your thoughts.

    I believe our mindset has a lot to do with the success we experience in life. 

    It saddens me when I see and hear people finding all kinds of excuses why they can't do this and why they can't do that. They are stuck because they are unwilling to adopt a growth mindset. They would rather remain with their fixed mindset.

    But if you are going to be a great leader, you must adopt a growth mindset aka an entrepreneurial mindset.

    In this episode, you will discover the reasons having an entrepreneurial mindset is so important and the 5 characteristics you'll need to develop to become a great leader. Take a listen

  • +++ RATION YOUR PASSION +++

    One of the words that are often used when it comes to the Millennials, is passion.

  • +++ IT'S ALL ABOUT THE TOOL +++

    Mark Twain quote, "To a man with a hammer, everything looks like a nail."

    I use this quote quite often with some of my clients in helping them to add more tools to their "toolbox" so they can have more options available to them.

    The more tools you have the better the chance of success. 

    One of the issues we face is deciding what our next tool should be. Sometimes we don't know what it should be especially when it is not something tangible. 

    For example, in the world of leadership: Do you know what tool you need or would need to be more successful?

    That is what our guest - Krister Ungerböck - discusses in this episode of The Kingsley Grant Show. You will discover that the tool needed is one that you already have at your disposal. Krister will unpack what it is and how to use it. Take a listen.
