The Reboot Podcast

On this episode of the Reboot Podcast, we introduce you to Erine Gray, founder of Aunt Bertha, a nationwide search and referral platform for connecting people in need with available government and charitable programs. In his time with Jerry, Erine recounts growing up as a poor child in a small town and how the experience repeatedly left him feeling judged and unaccepted, triggering feelings of anger and shame. He opens up about his struggle to shake the underdog mentality and how it undermines his confidence as a leader. Jerry and Erine discuss insecurities, faith, and why loving your inner critic is critical for compassionate leadership. Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts!

In moments of conflict, it can be difficult to stay present amongst our discomfort. However, when we lean into love and compassion we might begin to see conflict in a generative light. In this episode of the Reboot Podcast, Jerry is joined by Regina Smith, MA and Amanda Aguilera, PsyD, Co-founders of Evolving Dynamics, experts in the field of power dynamics, conflict, and equity. In this conversation, Regina and Amanda examine and characterize the intersectionality of power dynamics and expound on the various ways power is conferred in our culture (and our workplaces). They highlight how conflict avoidance is often most detrimental to those in the down power role and why expanding our capacity to be in conflict is necessary for progress. The conversation explores how cultivating a positive outlook towards conflict supports our ability to engage empathetically and skillfully when moments of friction arise. By introducing the notion of generative conflict (and the idea of radical collaboration), they underscore why love, community, and connection are paramount for social transformation.

In this release, Jerry sits down with leading diversity and inclusion expert Jennifer Brown to explore her latest book, ​How to Be an Inclusive Leader: Your Role in Creating Cultures of Belonging Where Everyone Can Thrive. In this conversation, recorded at the beginning of 2020, Jennifer reveals why inclusive leadership is not only risky, but often uncomfortable, and why discomfort is necessary for individual and organizational growth. Jerry and Jennifer analyze why true inclusivity requires removing the barriers to belonging in the workplace and share that when those with whom we work feel a true sense of belonging, trust and productivity increase within an organization. They examine the power of pronouns, make the distinction between allyship and advocacy, confront the ways in which our biases direct us, and describe why leadership without inclusivity is not true leadership.

The fundamental unit of doing that great work is conversation. Conversations happen easier, clearer, and more harmoniously if we can connect as human beings, look each other in the eye, trust, and feel safe naming what’s up for us. In this clip, coaches Andy Crissinger and Chris VandenBrink share Reboot’s Red-Yellow-Green model for check-ins and how it’s implementation can shift the tone of how you relate to folks and hold meetings such as 1-1’s and offsites.
