TBC Flashback - Dr. Kevin Sansberry II: Toxic Leadership

Letters from Fred - Bosshole® Zero

A dusty box in the basement turns into a full-on leadership time machine. I stumble onto a stack of handwritten memos from my old manager “Fred,” the same boss from our early “Don’t Bring Him Back” story, and reading them instantly brings back the stress of being managed by metrics instead of being led by insight. * Don't Bring Him Back [https://www.buzzsprout.com/1451638/episodes/6401095] HERE ARE MORE RESOURCES FROM REAL GOOD VENTURES: Never miss a good opportunity to learn from a bad boss...

When Promoting from Within Doesn't Work

“We only promote from within” sounds like a values-driven promise, but what happens when that promise puts the wrong person in a critical seat? John Broer and Karen Shulman dig into the uncomfortable reality: internal promotions can fail, sometimes spectacularly, when organizations rely on seniority, loyalty, or gut feel instead of clear evidence of job fit. * Head, Heart, and Briefcase [https://www.buzzsprout.com/1451638/episodes/9220570] * The Individual Contributor Pathway [https://www.buzzsprout.com/1451638/episodes/18838845] HERE ARE MORE RESOURCES FROM REAL GOOD VENTURES: Never miss a good opportunity to learn from a bad boss...

How America Spoke About Sacrifice And Freedom

Memorial Day asks for more than a moment of silence, so we take a different path this week and sit with the words Americans once used when the stakes were life and death. I’m recording on Memorial Day weekend, thinking about the more than 1.3 million Americans who have died in service, and the debt that number represents: families, futures, and everyday people who never got to come home. If we want to understand freedom, we have to be willing to look straight at what it costs. Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/1451638/fan_mail/new]

TBC Flashback - Dr. Tasha Eurich - Insight Into Self-Awareness

Introspection feels like the responsible thing to do, but what if it’s quietly making you less self-aware and more stressed? We sit down with organizational psychologist and author Dr. Tasha Eurich to unpack what the science actually says about self-awareness, why so many high-achieving leaders get stuck in rumination, and how a few small shifts can change the way you lead. * Click HERE [https://www.amazon.com/Insight-Self-Aware-Ourselves-Clearly-Succeed/dp/0451496817/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1681665089&sr=8-1] to purchase Tasha's book Insight * Click HERE [https://www.insight-book.com/quiz] to take the 5-minute Insight Quiz * Click HERE [https://www.insight-book.com/] to visit the Insight book website * Click HERE [https://www.linkedin.com/in/tashaeurich/] to connect with Tasha on LinkedIn * Click HERE [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGdsOXZpyWE&ab_channel=TEDxTalks] to watch Tasha's groundbreaking TEDx Talk * Click HERE [https://www.amazon.com/Bankable-Leadership-Bottom-Line-Results-Deliver/dp/1626340196/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1681665309&sr=8-1] to purchase Tasha's book Bankable Leadership HERE ARE MORE RESOURCES FROM REAL GOOD VENTURES: Never miss a good opportunity to learn from a bad boss...

Eric Harris - The Campfire Method

PowerPoint may be the most common management tool on Earth, but it might also be the fastest way to lose the room. We sit down with Eric Harris, creator of The Campfire Method, to rethink how leaders communicate when the stakes are high and change is constant. Instead of treating presentations as a deck you “run,” Eric argues for a more human approach where we earn belief, reduce anxiety, and help people move from point A to point B as an act of compassion. * Click HERE [https://www.amazon.com/Campfire-Method-Theres-Braver-Presenter/dp/B0GZD3TVDL/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1XA5T2VIKHIRL&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.W4k4tWBDw3bGg-9t1QhbMiunXu9iuEbC5CrNwXsZHaH02GkYH5o7oLrtZG0d-zb-MsXQQLNSeCSwsaLX_EUXRjaW3e3aJRQtSqQ-RVYb3CyNJElu11jIiuHJF0j-njdNNsl4LLKkeCWpnUK_-sJ75rtSHPRWmjqEoo9l0QrrJjw12dtHmGcEZovV5tZymyCMeMm8FBqa66dg5QOyvt2klDy2w2HEp5k108MzKgChzAE.UIgwxtarKQY_ChPfw4xNFe3eiAY2kNVdn3quSHjR8KI&dib_tag=se&keywords=the+campfire+method&qid=1778507260&sprefix=the+campfire+method%2Caps%2C143&sr=8-1] to order a copy of The Campfire Method * Click HERE [https://www.linkedin.com/in/erictharris/] for Eric Harris' LinkedIn profile HERE ARE MORE RESOURCES FROM REAL GOOD VENTURES: Never miss a good opportunity to learn from a bad boss...
