I wasn’t losing my soul at work, I was finding it.

You will never be a leader. You won’t get that promotion. The bonus and salary increase you expect will be given to someone else. Your product won’t change the world. Your idea won’t go viral. Your organization will fade into history. The legacy you leave will be forgotten. And a generation from now no one will even know your name. Be honest. You’ve had these thoughts before.

Of the many, many things that today’s leaders are expected to do, one of the most sought-after abilities in a leader is someone who can motivate and support those around them to bring their best selves to the work they do. Indeed, thanks to the transition from managing task workers to leading knowledge workers, being able to tap into the collective insights, experiences, and talents of those you lead has become a critical factor to determining an organization’s capacity to adapt and

Experience is a tough teacher; you receive the test first then learn the lesson. We’ve all learned quite a few lessons at the hands of that instructor. When underperforming firms, or firms which have issues they are ill-equipped to solve, need to make changes in order to right their ship, so to speak, interim leadership is sometimes brought in to provide experience and an extra set of hands to implement change.

This is another installment of excerpts from my book manuscript of “More Human: A Journey To The Heart Of Great Leadership”. This excerpt tells two very contrasting stories about a job of leadership that is never, ever, easy – having to let people go. There’s an easy and expedient way, one without context or heart, and a more human way, that requires forethought, empathy, and intestinal fortitude.

But for Harper it’s his job, one he works very hard at in studying, practice, and proper diet and training.

Many leaders don’t take the time to nurture relationships with their stakeholders. Making the effort to do that that will develop the relationships necessary for their – and their organization’s – success. I often hear from leaders that they have higher priorities on their plate than making connections with others. The truth is that things don’t get done if you don’t connect to the people who are contributing to those deadlines and bottom-lines.

Most HR leadership philosophies are grounded in two completely faulty assumptions — “change is hard” and “engagement drives results.” Those beliefs have inspired expensive attempts to keep change from being disruptive to employees. What these engagement programs actually do is create and reinforce feelings of victim-hood and leave employees unprepared to adapt to real changes that are necessary for the health and profitability of their enterprises.

M any years ago, my life was touched by a special book. That book was Wild At Heart by John Eldredge. The message pulled at my heart. It pulled at my spirit. This book made me believe there was more to life than watching TV, playing video games, and being alone. My life was meant to be a story. That same message is true today. And that’s why I was stoked to see John Eldredge and his sons were releasing a special one-night-only movie release called A Story Worth Living.

Past performance reflects future performance, apart from intervention. People tend to stay the same. Teammates who rose to past challenges tend to rise in the future.

It could be announcing that the quarterly numbers aren’t on target, letting someone know that they underperformed, admitting that you made a mistake or telling someone that they no longer have a job with your organization.
