0:01:07 I can hear you and see the screen 0:01:12 I can see the screen 0:03:13 check on both! 0:04:14 art@artpetty.com 0:04:42 yep coming up 0:05:20 Hi everyone! 0:05:56 Next Jam session: https://artpetty.mykajabi.com/leadership-caffeine-jam-session-16 0:05:57 So far so good! Just got another Covid booster this morning, so expecting some effects from that. 0:06:23 Ha ha. 0:06:35 I didn't have any effects when I got mine 0:07:20 Hi Linda. Where are you based with USAID? A very good friend of mine is in Bangladesh. 0:07:21 Yes, I love them!!! 0:07:57 Marc, I am in Washington In the DDI Bureau 0:08:29 I am in the greater Cleveland, Ohio area 0:08:41 DDI? Sorry all the TLA’s are sometimes baffling. :-) 0:08:42 Philly suburbs 0:08:52 I am in the greater Dallas area. 0:08:55 Hello from Northern VA 0:08:57 But right now I am Teleworking in my Airstream in Longs, SC 0:09:00 SE WA state 0:09:08 I’m in Orlando. Our second weekend of winter is coming. 0:09:10 I am from Nashville, TN 0:09:30 In "sunny" California--dealing with storms and floods 0:09:40 That’s why we have freezers. 0:10:10 you are already muted! 0:11:40 art@artpetty.com 0:12:54 https://artpetty.com/jam-session-archive/ 0:15:00 Hi Wally - Love your Three Star Leadership site. 0:18:20 Sometimes people are afraid to be themselves, so I would argue you could become more authentic this year. 0:18:55 Instead of authentic self - how about being our best self? 0:20:28 For leaders you've encounter on your journey who generated great results with/through others, what did/do they do? 0:20:51 Empower others to do their best, which means allow them to fail and learn. 0:20:55 they were transparent with their communications and made me feel like I was contributing directly to the product/software/company 0:21:05 Generated trust 0:21:06 My favorite leaders always connected with me early on in our relationships. 0:21:08 Actually listening and engaging their teams - recognizing everyone's contribution 0:21:10 autonomy 0:21:11 Trust yes! 0:21:12 She will say that she does not know something 0:21:15 listened to me 0:21:24 Communications 0:21:30 Included, and empowered me, to "fix the issues" we were working on. Then kept it simple of measure what you want to manage 0:21:30 inspire 0:21:33 They generated trust. Some instilled fear, but balanced with moving toward trust 0:21:41 Assigned challenging and interesting projects to me. 0:21:46 I was a systems engineer with way to much to do. He helped me prioritize what I needed to do, what I could delegate to others, and what we could hold off on to see if it really needed to be done. 0:21:47 The challenge you are discussing is the knowing doing gap. While we know what we should be doing, we tend not to execute 0:21:51 Knew what was being done, were honest, good at regular checking, let their people do stuff 0:21:53 they made me feel supported 0:21:58 demonstrated understanding of the issues at hand 0:21:59 Will roll up their sleeves and jump in to the work 0:22:08 Told us what the goal was and then let us know how each of us contributed when we reached it. 0:22:15 I feel like my favorite leaders believed in me and my skills. 0:22:19 inspire 0:22:25 clear communications 0:22:28 had a vision and communicated it to the team 0:22:30 trust 0:22:34 Cared about the work and how it was done 0:22:37 Provided accolades when they were deserved, but never pandered. Also, honestly provided areas for improvement with the assumption that I was mature enough to accept constructive criticism. 0:22:38 Goal communication and how we can help in reaching the goal 0:22:41 Humble. Recognized others 0:22:44 clarity 0:24:29 The push out of the comfort zone - that's the fear part, but moving toward trust 0:26:20 Job shadow. 0:27:34 What are the big people/culture/structural/strategic issues you are facing? 0:27:54 intergenerational values 0:28:26 A boss that does not do any work or express the vision of the team 0:29:39 Love the Hero one!! 0:30:27 I like the Hero one, we are implementing that one 0:30:46 Eliminate the drama. 0:30:50 Suire 0:30:57 we actually have "hero awards" in our company. Public acknowledge ment 0:31:07 We have Kudos program to recognize folks across the organization 0:31:18 in our org, they are called STAR award 0:31:38 We developed a citywide award points system; you can provide kudos privately or by public citywide to encourage folks, based on our core values. 0:32:39 Employees can also accumulate points that get small items, but the beauty is in the recognition. It's immediate and employees love it! 0:33:08 Need to embrace our role of having people leave our team for other positions within the company even if we may not be able to hire a replacement, which means continuing to improve our processes so that the team does not become overwhelmed when under staffed. 0:34:18 Sometimes called BEHAGs 0:34:56 I mean BHAGs 0:35:47 @Dave sounds like Craig Groeschel 0:37:36 I first learned it from TJ Rodgers. Jim Collins has written about it, as well 0:38:59 what are your big goals? 0:39:38 We are launching a major program on Innovation. We misunderstand innovation and make it more complex than we need. Our project is how we help our clients innovate 0:40:07 Complete the transformation of our Marketing Operations organization from regional, in country, to centralized shared service 0:40:39 Institute a Risk Management program. 0:40:59 I will finally codify a single Standards system for our Drafting Department by June 0:41:26 One possibility: To identify by the close of 2023 a worldwide knowledge management system compatible with our existing CRM and ERP systems 0:41:27 I would appreciate that 0:43:45 What's a crucible moment in your career that has altered your sense of "leadership" identity? How did it affect you? 0:44:38 Major conflict with my PhD advisor 0:45:13 Helped me to manage strong personalities 0:45:22 Being a part of developing a true Dream Team. 0:45:50 Being told that I was no longer the right person for a product line manager role, when I had grown it from $1.5M to $22M. Turned out to be a great protection and opportunity, thought it took me several months to get there. 0:46:01 Going to work for a global organization that is 10x larger than any previous company I have worked for 0:46:02 Helping my now wife through a very deep depression 0:46:06 switching my mindset to giving each minute purpose. Time is truly the most precious commodity. 0:46:46 Being fired from an executive role, then on reflection learning "they" were right and it freed me to do what I really wanted to do 0:48:00 How did this moment in your life change you? 0:48:12 What can you take from this experience to help you better define the leader you aspire to be? 0:50:31 I ask leaders what's the legacy you want to leave? And do you know what legacy you're actually going to leave. 0:52:13 Aspirational Leadership Self....better name? 0:52:32 Just posting the questions :) 0:52:52 art@artpetty.com 0:55:19 Better name?
