Moment #27: Defining Weak Leadership

No Bullsh!t Leadership

07/30/23 • 4 min

Moment #27 // Weak leaders are characterized by what they’re not prepared to do.

Weak leaders are unwilling to push back on the boss; they don't put the team's interests ahead of their own; they’re unwilling to set ambitious goals; they’re afraid to challenge, coach, and confront their people; and they’re reluctant to challenge the status quo.

What's the price of leadership weakness? Unrealized potential; poor performance; lack of market competitiveness.

Eventually, this leads to job cuts, restructures, and redundancies. And in some cases, the company won’t survive. Weak leaders allow performance to slip, and the outcomes are entirely predictable.

You can take a deeper dive into these insights by listening to Ep.68: The Price Of Leadership Weakness.

Building a Better Mousetrap: The productivity reality

No Bullsh!t Leadership

07/18/23 • 18 min

Episode #255 // Ralph Waldo Emerson once said: “Build a better mousetrap, and the world will beat a path to your door!”. This quote, espousing the value of innovation, has been liberally used and abused over the years.

I came across it again recently in an article from McKinsey: Turning Around the Productivity Slowdown... so, what is productivity? And what’s the relationship between productivity and innovation?

In today’s episode, I look at productivity from a number of different angles. What does it mean in the world of macroeconomics? How does productivity impact our standard of living?

On a day-to-day level, what does it mean for your type of industry and organization? Can productivity provide a competitive advantage?

It doesn’t matter what type of organization you’re leading in, improving productivity will reap huge benefits for all your stakeholders... including the people who work for you.

But, getting your head around why you should have a constant focus on productivity improvement can be a little tricky... hopefully this episode will help.

What the Best Leaders Do Differently with Scott J. Miller

No Bullsh!t Leadership

07/11/23 • 48 min

Episode #254 // We’re approached all the time to interview other thought leaders on this podcast. However, since No Bullsh!t Leadership is predominantly a solo cast, we reluctantly decline 99% of these requests.

But one email popped into our Inbox a few months ago, and we couldn’t resist it: Scott Jeffrey Miller is a speaker, author, and podcaster (sounds familiar, I know!)

What’s different about Scott is that he’s worked for over 25 years with FranklinCovey, the legendary company started by Stephen Covey, which has not one, but three seminal works to draw upon:

The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People
The Speed of Trust, and
The 4 Disciplines of Execution (one of my favorites).

Scott has worked with these original thought leaders for decades, and as host of FranklinCovey’s On Leadership podcast, he’s had access to some of the best-known and highest-profile leaders on the planet.

In today’s interview, I drill into Scott’s deep learning, asking him what it’s like to interview the biggest names in business; his experience of writing best-selling books; and what’s in store for the future of leadership.

Your Leadership User Manual: Clarifying expectations for success

No Bullsh!t Leadership

08/01/23 • 19 min

Episode #257 // I came across an article by Shanna Hocking, which introduced me to the concept of the Leadership User Manual. Hocking credits its origins to Adam Bryant, who wrote an article almost 10 years ago titled, What if you had to write a user manual about your leadership style?

Imagine the power of a physical document that can help your people to understand how they can best work with you. What a great idea!

Knowing how your boss operates, and what he values, could save you years of guesswork, as the only other way to work it out is through trial and error. I wish I’d thought of this years ago!

In this episode, I take a deep dive into the concept of the leadership user manual. I look at the benefits and risks, and I take you along the journey with me as I develop my own inaugural leadership user manual.

We’ve also created a leadership user manual template, a free download, so that you can develop your own guide.

Moment #26: From Individual Contributor to Leader

No Bullsh!t Leadership

07/23/23 • 4 min

Moment #26 // Of the many mistakes that new leaders are prone to make, over-functioning for certain individuals is one of the most common, and the most insidious.

When you do this, it tells your people that what they're doing isn't good enough. It trains them to be lazy and complacent, because you'll always step in to finish their job for them if you’re not happy. And they'll keep getting paid for not doing their job to the standard you expect.

Excellent leaders give their people clarity of purpose, resources, coaching, and autonomy. They lead people to do their jobs—they don’t do their jobs for them.

You can take a deeper dive into these insights by listening to Ep.172: Stop Doing Your People's Work, or by reading my article in Harvard Business Review.

Moment #104: Team Morale Is Elusive

No Bullsh!t Leadership

01/19/25 • 4 min

Moment #104 // Conventional wisdom tells us that “happy workers are productive workers”... but short-term, sugar-hits of happiness don’t lead to high performance!

Team morale is elusive, and you don’t build it by being overly protective, or by mollycoddling your people. You build it by giving them an environment where they’re expected to stretch, grow, and achieve.

This builds individual self esteem, and genuine long-term satisfaction... it’s also the foundation of high team morale and superior performance.

If you want to go deeper on how to really lift your team culture, have a listen to Ep.281 Building Team Morale.

Moment #25: Why Management Teams Become Stale

No Bullsh!t Leadership

07/16/23 • 4 min

Moment #25 // High-performance is fragile. Teams can lose their lustre for a whole range of reasons, and leading a team of high performers can be incredibly challenging.

The best teams push each other pretty hard, and it can be difficult to maintain constructive tension, without it boiling over into acrimony.

And, yes, sometimes your people just stop listening to you. Over time, familiarity breeds contempt, and the downside of consistency (a much sought-after leadership characteristic) is predictability.

You can take a deeper dive into these insights by listening to Ep.99: Don't Play One Season Too Many.

Moment #4: Is Leading From the Front a Good Thing?

No Bullsh!t Leadership

02/19/23 • 4 min

Moment #4 // It’s great to lead from the front, but you have to understand what that means. You can’t do your people’s work for them, only to say, "I'm leading from the front.”

That’s not leading from the front, and it’s not setting a virtuous example. Just the opposite. Listen to what leading from the front really means. You can take a deeper dive into these insights by listening to Ep.88: Rolling Your Sleeves Up
