A Productive Conversation - Michael Diettrich-Chastain talks about CHANGES

Michael Diettrich-Chastain talks about CHANGES

02/16/22 • 45 min

A Productive Conversation

Change is never easy. And it's constant.

It's one of the things that we can rely on... even if we can't rely on what it might hold for us.

That's why you're seeing the phrase "change management" so much more than ever before. You can't really lead change; you can only manage it.

Or can you lead it?

That's what Michael Diettrich-Chastain and I talk about during this episode of A Productive Conversation.

Michael is a bestselling author, leadership coach, facilitator and professional speaker. Michael and his team are passionate about helping organizations, leaders and teams become experts on change management, communication and emotional intelligence. So he knows a thing or to about not just managing change... but leading it to where you get the best outcome possible.

We talked about certainty and uncertainty and how the acronym he uses (CHANGES) can help organizations and their personnel deal with both. There's a lot more that we get into surrounding the concept of change and I believe after listening to this conversation, you might just change your mind about how change can be handled to work for you more often than not.

Luke Burgis talks about Wanting, Journaling, and Fulfillment

As the author of "Wanting: The Power of Mimetic Desire in Everyday Life," Luke has spent plenty of time and energy researching the power of desire. I absolutely loved getting into the book and wanted to spend some time getting into the nuts and bolts with Luke about why "wanting" has so much power... and what to do with that power.

We unpacked a lot during our discussion – from impostor syndrome to needs and wants becoming one and the same (or appearing to be) to attempting to avoid choosing the wrong things to desire. I learned a lot from this conversation, making it incredibly productive.

I trust you'll learn a lot, too.

FROM THE VAULT: Justin Jackson talks about Making and Modifying

My guest on this episode is my friend Justin Jackson. I wanted to revisit this conversation from April 2017, so I pulled it from the vault to share it with you once again.

Justin is a ton of things. He's a dad, a husband, an entrepreneur, and a coach. He's the founder of Megamaker, cofounder of Transistor.fm, and cofounder of Meeps. He's also the author of Jolt, the creator of Marketing for Developers and Tiny Marketing Wins, and an overall serial maker.

He aims to help people through the things they create. And he does a great job at that.

On this episode, we discussed the processes of making and/or modifying. We spent time going over his systems and approaches in the different initiatives and creations he is working on.
