Cascading Communications (and Getting Everyone on the Same Page!) with Liz Kislik
The Leadership Communication Show with Michael Piperno
05/15/23 • 29 min
On the next episode of The Leadership Communication Show, I speak with Liz Kislik, a management consultant, executive coach, TEDx speaker, and contributor to Harvard Business Review and Forbes.
Her specialty is developing high performing leaders and workforces for organizations, from the Fortune 500 and national non-profits to family-run businesses. Liz has coached and mentored employees from the C-suite to the contact center — vice presidents, human resource professionals, and department supervisors — motivating them with her wit, wisdom, and humanity.
Liz and I have talked in the past about how leaders can help keep everyone in their organizations on the same page. It’s not an easy task, but she always has good advice for making it happen. So, I invited her to the show to share some of that wisdom with you.
We discussed cascading communication, making sure messages from the top are communicated well throughout an organization, the importance of repetition and versioning, communicating in the right style and at the right time in order to meet people where they are, and much, much more.
It’s a fun conversation, and I hope you find it helpful.

Career Journeys with Errol Olton
The Leadership Communication Show with Michael Piperno
10/14/22 • 34 min
Today’s conversation is with Errol Olton, Founder of Career Studios. His company supports growing professionals with strengths-based career tools and coaching support to guide them through each stage of their career journey.
He's also a TEDx Speaker, organizational strategist who has worked across various sectors (including nonprofit, education, career development and private industry) and is guided by a simple but mighty purpose — helping others.
Errol and I speak about blended career paths (which we both share), entrepreneurship, career shifts and pivots, and the art of telling your career and leadership story.
I always leave my conversations with Errol feeling energized and motivated. I think you will, too.

Creating a Culture of Curiosity with Gil Brady
The Leadership Communication Show with Michael Piperno
04/11/22 • 35 min
Today my guest is Gil Brady, a leadership expert who has had a varied and fascinating journey. After serving in the military, he had a successful career in pharmaceuticals and biotechnology — and then changed careers and worked as a Junior High School Math Teacher and elementary school principal. While completing his doctorate in Executive Leadership, Gil founded Relationship Impact, a leadership development firm focused on Executive Team Development. In July of 2018, Gil began serving as the President of Nativity Prep Academy of San Diego, the county’s only all-scholarship school focused on serving students from low-income situations who will be among the first generation in their family to graduate from college. Gil is also part of the leadership team at Core Strengths, a company that develops tools that help organizations build high-trust teams that deliver results through relationships.
I invited Gil to the show because he knows a lot about helping leaders create a culture of curiosity — something so important in our current business world but also something that many leaders struggle to get right.
We talk about the power of positive regard, leadership communication mistakes that affect culture and kill curiosity and innovation, tension, conflict, and how to make people feel seen, heard, and valued. We also explore how we have both used the Strength Deployment Inventory (SDI 2.0) assessment in our work. It was a great conversation where Gil shared a wealth of great advice. I hope you enjoy it.

On the next episode of The Leadership Communication Show, I speak with Dan Nestle about leading creative teams. Dan’s a communicator, storyteller, marketer, team leader, and former teacher — which is something we share in our career paths. And he’s a creator. He writes, he podcasts and he’s a seasoned marketer and leader who currently leads communications for LIXIL Americas — a company that makes water and housing products you likely have in your home or office right now.

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion with Kecia Carroll

Kecia is a communication strategist who partners with organizations doing meaningful work — and her company, KC Roberg, helps small and mid-size businesses and nonprofits elevate their brands and achieve their business goals.
I invited Kecia to the show today because she has helped many organizations explore the right way to create and incorporate Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion programs. I know a lot of companies and organizations struggle to do it right, so I think a conversation with Kecia will help.

09/13/22 • 31 min
On the next episode of The Leadership Communication Show, I speak with Dr. Phil Gehrman, clinical psychologist at the Philadelphia VA Medical Center and Associate Professor of Clinical Psychology in Psychiatry at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania.
Phil is an expert in sleep disorders and is on a mission to advance the understanding of the links between sleep and mental health. He directs the Sleep, Neurobiology and Psychopathology lab at Penn and has an active research program exploring the mechanisms and treatment of insomnia, circadian rhythm disorders, and other sleep disorders.
We met a few years back and recently reconnected because Phil has been lending his expertise to the business community through speaking and consulting programs that help business leaders understand the connection between good sleep, and good leadership.
So, I invited him to the show to talk about the connection between sleep and leadership performance. It’s a fascinating conversation where Phil shares a lot of great advice for understanding how we sleep, and what you can do to improve your sleep quality. I hope you enjoy it.

Storytelling with Heather Hardwick
The Leadership Communication Show with Michael Piperno
02/15/22 • 27 min
I have worked with my colleague and friend Heather Hardwick on a variety of communication initiatives over the years — and I’ve always been impressed with how she can see the story that needs to be told before anyone else has even created an outline or written a single line of copy. That’s why I invited her to come on the show to share some of her brilliance with you.
Heather is a brand communications leader who designs programs and solutions that advance business strategy, reinforce brand narrative, enhance customer experience and strengthen culture. She has worked in both corporate and agency environments to achieve the marketing communications goals of industry-leading organizations in education, financial services, healthcare, technology, energy, arts and entertainment, real estate and other sectors.

Leadership Styles with Robert Jordan
The Leadership Communication Show with Michael Piperno
11/13/23 • 33 min
On the next episode of The Leadership Communication Show, I speak with Robert Jordan, co-founder and head of the leadership team at InterimExecs — a leadership executive matching firm that matches organizations with the right leaders to step in during times of trouble or stagnation.
Robert and I were introduced earlier this year and when we first met, we talked a lot about different leadership styles — and why some leaders just seem to have that magic sauce that makes them stand out above the rest. I’ve learned that Robert’s research and writings can help understand why that is seemingly the case.
In fact, he’s even written a book about it called, Right Leader, Right Time: Discover Your Leadership Style for a Winning Career.
We talk about good leadership, terrible leadership, leadership styles (and how to assess yours), and essentially what Robert’s research has determined makes an exceptional leader. We also discussed my personal results from the FABS Leadership Assessment.
It was a great conversation and I hope you find it helpful.
