In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month and inspired by real stories of courage, we're tackling the elephant (or should we say the toxin?) in the room: workplace "cancers" that slowly poison even the healthiest teams.
🚨 Warning Signs Your Workplace Needs a Check-Up:
1. The Trust Termites
Just like termites silently munching through your office's foundation, toxic behaviors can eat away at team trust faster than that milk in the break room fridge everyone's afraid to throw out. Learn to spot the early warning signs before your workplace culture needs major surgery.
2. The Communication Complications
When whispers replace conversations and eye rolls replace dialogue, you've got a communication crisis on your hands. We'll show you how to restore healthy communication patterns without needing workplace relationship therapy (though sometimes that helps too!).
3. The Recovery Room
After removing toxic elements, your workplace needs time to heal. Like any good doctor, we'll walk you through the recovery process - no scratchy hospital gowns required! Discover how to rebuild stronger, more resilient teams after addressing workplace toxicity.
The Bottom Line?
Just as early detection saves lives, early intervention saves teams. This episode isn't just about identifying the bad stuff - it's about creating an environment where good stuff thrives. Think of it as preventive medicine for your leadership style! -
"Just Delegate It!" (And Other Leadership Fairy Tales)
Ever catch yourself thinking leadership is just playing hot potato with tasks? Spoiler alert: There's a bit more to it than that! Dive into this spicy episode where we unpack why being the boss isn't just about pointing fingers and hoping for the best.
Three Truth Bombs That'll Rock Your Leadership World:
1. Delegation ≠ Leadership Magic Wand 🪄
News flash: Tossing tasks over the cubicle wall and running isn't exactly leadership gold. Our own Myra Hall spills the tea from her real estate days, where "out of sight" definitely didn't mean "out of mind." If your to-do list is so packed that you can't check if things are actually getting done, houston, we have a problem!
2. Growth: You Can Lead a Horse to Water... And Make the Water Look FABULOUS! 🌟
Geoff drops this wisdom bomb: You can't force-feed engagement with a leadership spoon, but you can turn your workplace into the kind of party people actually want to join. Think less "mandatory fun" and more "I actually want to be here!"
3. Play to Your Team's Superpowers
Jeff Conroy gets real about the secret sauce of great leadership: Know your kryptonite and hire people who think it's their breakfast cereal. He's living proof that you don't need to be a jack-of-all-trades – just the master of building an all-star team who's got your back (and front, and sides).
The Bottom Line?
Leadership isn't about being the ringmaster who knows all the tricks. It's about creating the kind of circus where every performer gets to shine, and you're just there making sure nobody accidentally sets the tent on fire.
Tune in for more laughs, lessons, and leadership real talk that'll make you rethink everything you thought you knew about being the boss! -

Welcome back to another episode of No More Leadership BS.
These No More Leadership BS podcasts are always a highlight of our week, and today's topic is no exception. We're putting on our nonprofit hats to tackle something we've all learned at some point along our leadership journey: the art of appreciation.
We've got three key takeaways that might just change the way you think about leadership:
Frequent and Authentic Recognition: We'll explore how appreciation can be the currency that keeps your team motivated and loyal. Spoiler alert: it's more valuable than you might think.
Relationship Building: Get ready to learn how spending time getting to know your team can pay off in ways you never expected. Trust me, it's worth more than any team-building exercise involving trust falls.
Consistency and Authenticity: We'll talk about making appreciation a part of your organizational culture. It's not a one-time performance - it's more like a marathon, but with less sweating and more smiling.
So, buckle up, leadership enthusiasts. We're about to cut through the noise and get to the heart of what really matters in leadership. Let's dive in and explore how we can create a culture of appreciation that keeps our teams engaged, motivated, and excited to come to work.
Get ready to learn how to lead with gratitude - your team will thank you for it. Let's go! -
Are you ready to jump in on a journey where silicon meets synapses, and algorithms dance with gut feelings? Buckle up, because we're about to dive into the wild world of AI in leadership, where the robots are our friends (mostly), and the humans still get to keep their corner offices (for now).
Picture this: You're drowning in a sea of spreadsheets, your to-do list is longer than War and Peace, and your team is giving you those "please save us from this administrative abyss" puppy dog eyes.
Enter AI, your new digital sidekick! It's like having a super-efficient intern who never needs coffee breaks or complains about the office temperature. But wait, before you start planning your extended vacation, remember that AI is more R2-D2 than C-3PO - great at tasks, not so great at understanding why Karen from accounting always cries during budget meetings.
So, how do we strike that perfect balance between embracing our new robot overlords (ahem, assistants) and maintaining that irreplaceable human touch? It's simple: we adapt, we learn, and we keep our sense of humor intact. Think of AI as that overeager friend who's always ready to help move furniture - incredibly useful, but you wouldn't trust them to rearrange your entire house. The key is to stay curious, keep learning, and remember that at the end of the day, it's still us humans who get to decide whether the office plants should be real or artificial.
Time to tune in in and learn how to lead in this brave new world where bits and bytes meet handshakes and high-fives! -

Success comes from collaboration, not individual effort.
Everyone is on their own journey, but the paths we take and how efficiently we travel them can vary dramatically. As leaders, we often bear the weight of responsibility, thinking we must shoulder every burden alone. But what if that very mindset is holding us back?

Whether you're a seasoned executive or an aspiring leader, this episode will challenge you to rethink your approach to personal and professional development. Let's dive in! \ -

I'm so stressed! There's so much! Too much!
Stress can be bad, unhealthy. Too much of anything can be negative. Stress can also be very good. Stress on our muscles can cause damage AND growth. So stress is not going anywhere, what in the world can we do?
1️⃣ We can react or we can respond. Usually reacting is less measured than responding.
2️⃣ Stress is necessary and we can manage how we engage it.
3️⃣ It is more effective if stress represents a brief peak rather than a constant state.
Leaders face all kinds of stress. The decisions they have to make for big picture issues impact many others. Negotiating how to address a difficult conversation with another person is not everyone's favorite task. We've pinpointed the issue... now what?
The No More Leadership BS team addresses stress, stressors, and how we respond. SPOILER: our recommendation is NOT to avoid stress. We're not advocating for hermitism. As a leader, you have the ability to engage in meaningful behaviors to appropriately manage the stressors in your life. You also have the responsibility to do so in order to serve those who look to you for leadership. -
BAH!! I'M SO STRESSED!!
Or... "How are you?" "Oh, you know, stressed out, crazy busy."
We consistently address stress as a negative. This is often a placeholder for overwhelm or frustration. And, unfortunately, in US culture, if we're not super busy, stressed, and appearing to do all the things, we're not doing good enough.
What if we look at stress as an opportunity for learning and improvement? There is no way to learn or grow without getting at least a little uncomfortable. For example:
1. Stress as a Growth Lever - Like muscles that need to be stressed to grow, teams also need challenges to develop and strengthen. Harnessing stress positively can lead to significant improvements in performance and innovation.
Building Resilience Through Exposure - Scheduled and managed stress can enhance resilience, preparing teams to handle bigger challenges with more competence. Real-life stories from our hosts shed light on how previous high-stress situations trained them to handle future pressures more effectively.
Balancing Stress for Optimal Performance - It’s crucial to find the right balance of stress. Too little can lead to complacency, while too much might cause burnout. Ensuring that stress levels are productive without being overwhelming is key to maintaining an engaged and proactive team.
The episode addresses the dynamics of stress in leadership and then flips the script on the role of stress in our work environments. Whether you're leading a team, managing a project, or looking to enhance your personal resilience, there’s much to learn from this engaging discussion.
When we approach stressful situations with a positive mindset, that can be the key to a great moment of growth and development. That is not to suggest we should be Pollyannic, but as leaders we have the opportunity to make the most of a difficult situation.
As you consider the stories and tales of the No More Leadership BS team, reflect on which stress-inducing situations you're facing that cannot be avoided and could have a positive outcome. If you're not sure which stressful situations might have a good outcome, contact any one of our team to discuss and see if we can help you find your diamond in the rough. -
Everyone is on their own journey. The difference in how people travel efficiently and get to their destination in good health. Leading people brings a lot of stress by nature. It can be compounded by physical manifestations of stress. This can look like physical maladies such as stomach trouble, headaches, or heart problems. Before that, stress can look like binge-eating, eating all the wrong things, giving up exercising, or consistent mindless snacking.
People in leadership roles cannot be and cannot be expected to be dead-center of their height-weight bell curve. But anyone could pay attention to how their nutrition, diet, and stress all interact to paint a large portion of their health picture. If or when you are ready to make changes, here are some ideas:
1. Small disciplines lead to big changes - Just a few small changes in your daily routine, such as taking a short walk or reducing meeting times, can have a significant impact on both physical and mental health.
2. Seek outside help and advice - Don't be afraid to reach out to someone you trust for support and guidance. Whether it's a coach, mentor, or friend, an outside perspective can be invaluable in navigating your journey.
3. Value your well-being - Recognize that physical health directly impacts your mental well-being and leadership skills. By prioritizing your health, you'll be better equipped to lead and support others effectively.
As humans, we are not awesome at having clear introspection. If that's the case, an outside perspective can be invaluable. Sometimes that perspective comes from a friend or coach. Sometimes it comes in the way others demonstrate behavior toward you. If you're figuratively biting people's heads off, they're not going to come to you with ideas and questions, If people change how they behave around you, it is likely a reflection of your actions, not theirs.
The No More Leadership BS team have been down this road many times. We offer observations, insights, and recommendations regarding your cognitively difficult job as a leader and how that can, and does, affect your physical health and wellbeing. -
Okay, quick run down... I've got my clothes, toiletries, pajamas, swimsuit, sunscreen, sun hat, work laptop, work cell, work printer, and just a few must-do meetings on my calendar. Yes, time for vacation!!
Many people have jobs where they are expected to be able to be reached 24/7. But, and just hear me out, what if you're not available? On a plane, can't take calls. Between large cities, spotty service on the interstate. Attending to biological needs, just put the frickin' phone in another room for the love of all that is decent.
There is just a ton of what-if scenarios. In fact, there are so many possible things that can go wrong, it's probably best that you never leave your job. No, no, no. Not for the day... at all. Best leave your family and move to your office because SOMETHING might go wrong.
This is weapons-grade bad advice. Humans enjoy engaging work and meaningful play. And we need them both. Meaningful play might be a rowdy game of Uno. It might be a fully uninterrupted 30-minute mediation. No matter what helps your brain be healthier, it's important to engage in that behavior.
Easier said than done? What if you were to...
Prioritize Your Time: "We have 24 hours in a day, and we control what we fill that time with." Make sure you’re scheduling quality downtime.
Lead by Example: If leaders don't take their own vacations seriously, their team won't either. Encourage rest by practicing it yourself.
Recognize Self-Inflicted Stress: A strong sense of duty can be counterproductive. If you’re constantly tethered to your work devices, it might be time to reassess your boundaries.
Whether you're a CEO or just starting your career, this episode is packed with actionable advice to help you find that critical balance between work and life. There are times when it is easy. For example, taking a weekend trip to a location that is off-the-grid. It's easy to not respond to email and calls when you can't receive them. Another way is to invest in a Faraday box or envelope. Need some quiet time? Put your phone in the Faraday and it won't receive the signal, plus, it's not within reach so you can't just turn off airplane mode and quickly check something.
Your time is yours. It is your responsibility and opportunity to spend it in ways that make sense to you. If not taking time off does not work for you, the No More Leadership BS team has some recommendations about how to reclaim your time and keep yourself from getting in the express lane to burnout. -
Bold assertion; here's something you don't want to hear, "Your surgeon has got a LOT of room to grow in the operating room, but his team REALLY loves him!"
Leadership is a tricky space. It's easy to observe and less easy to describe. For example; a person who is technically solid, may not be good at all with people. Conversely, a fabulous people-person may not be able to find their glasses on their face. A high-quality leader is going to be able to have a handle on the doing of the stuff and the support of the people; but they may not be an expert in either space.
That's why there's the third space; leadership. Being able to lead by example and coaching is a great space for a leader. If their overloaded on a type of skill, they may not be the strongest leaders available.
📌 Culture Fit Over Skills: while skills can be taught, finding a place in an organization's culture is critical. Sometimes the best leaders are those who aren't a perfect cultural fit but bring a fresh perspective that sparks innovation and creativity.
📌 Leaders Are Made, Not Born: leadership is cultivated through experience, reading, and doing. Leaders are constant learners who transform other people's experiences into their wisdom.
📌 Action and Humility: Leaders must take action, inspire others through their courage, and exercise humility by constantly seeking to learn from everyone around them.
If you're looking for a new leader and the expectations is basically a compilation of everyone's job descriptions, the odds of finding the perfect person approach zero. And, finding the right leader for the moment can be effective... for the moment.
Seeking and developing leadership requires careful growth and pruning of the technical and social skills necessary to lead the organization today and into the future. It is not easy to articulate or seek out leadership. The only way forward is to develop clarity on what is needed rather than what someone else says defines a leader.
The No More Leadership BS team charges ahead by examining what leaders do, can do, should do, and how they can engage to appropriately serve their teams. In addition, this can be very useful for leaders hiring leaders to ensure they have an eye on the future, not just the immediacy.
What do you find to be one of the most important qualities of an effective leader? -
You don't have to go home, but you can't stay here.
Every leadership team whether a board or an executive team experiences change and transition. With boards, some of the transition is predictable due to board member terms. That does not guarantee that the transition is smooth, easy, efficient, or even anything but chaotic.
People experiencing change experience questions, concerns, and instability. Knowing that transition can be difficult for individuals and teams, here are some properly earned thoughts on such team changes:
1. Meaningful Volunteer Work and Board Preparation: Volunteer work is impactful and productive. To ensure volunteers have the ability to be their best, the organization must provide thorough training and orientation for volunteers including board members.
2. Role Clarity and Communication: Understanding one's role and ensuring transparent communication is crucial for smooth board operations. One of the biggest problems with communication is the illusion that it actually occurred.
3. Preparation and Training: Starting with the end in mind means preparing the next board president and setting clear expectations for all board members. "On the job training" is not an effective training strategy because it relies on no one's prior learning and history. Leaders need to equip board members with proper tools and job descriptions to fulfill their duties effectively.
Board members can be volunteers, paid, or donors. Regardless of the mechanism, board members have responsibilities to the organization which must be defined by the organization. When expectations are defined, they must be communicated and a mechanism for accountability must also be present. Yes, even for board members.
The No More Leadership BS Team has seen all types of boards and leadership teams. There is nothing so clear to an organization as a transition in leadership that is executed without care and concern for the organization. Individuals must ensure their egos are left at their day job and they show up with humility to learn and lead where they can. But there's more, what are some of your favorite morsels from this episode? -
