Each week, I collect the resources related to leadership, personal growth, and professional development I shared on social media the prior week, with the accompanying quotations.
……..
Gregg Vanourek:
“Great Leaders Prioritize Learning–Why and How” (4-2-25).
“Effective leaders take advantage of coaching, since it provides personalized guidance and support to help them work through tough issues and gain greater clarity. A good coach offers a safe space for self-reflection, helping leaders develop self-awareness, identify their leadership derailers, and overcome challenges.”
……..
S. Chris Edmonds:
“Want to attract & retain talented employees? Ground your culture in respect and validation.”
(4-3-25).
“When leaders create work cultures where respect is as critical as results, three powerful things happen: engagement increases, service improves, results rise, and retention goes up.”
……..
Doug Glener, Blanchard:
“Research Round-Up: Escaping the Negativity Trap” (3-20-25).
“Summing it up: Never give negative feedback. Always give constructive feedback. Aspire to give transformative feedback.”
……..
Karin Hurt and David Dye:
“In Times of Chaos and Low Morale, Lead Yourself First” (3-10-25).
“You might not fix everything. But you can create an environment where people feel heard, supported, and valued—where they can continue to make a difference. If not for all the work you’d like to achieve, then for one another.
That’s what real leadership looks like.”
……..
C.J. Prince:
“Alan Mulally On the Power of Transparency” (3-25-25).
“‘Create a culture of transparency. Problems will surface whether you want them to or not—better to deal with them openly and early.'”
