  • Improvement or Adaptability? You Need Both!
    Apr 27 2024

    "Send me a text message and let me know what you think of the First-Time Leaders Accelerated℠ Podcast."

    Improvement and adaptability are our two most important abilities for survival. Just focusing on continuous performance improvement will not necessarily sustain an organization. Adapting to our everchanging world is important to remain relevant.

  • Leader Development, What's Your Plan?
    Mar 26 2024

    "Send me a text message and let me know what you think of the First-Time Leaders Accelerated℠ Podcast."

    When you transition from individual performer to first-time leader, often you inherit something you did not create. Unless you are an entrepreneur, hiring your first employees, you inherit everything, including the Vision, the Mission, the people, the culture and organizational history.

  • It’s Okay to Say “No, Thank You”
    Jan 27 2024

    "Send me a text message and let me know what you think of the First-Time Leaders Accelerated℠ Podcast."

    Often top performing individuals are promoted to a leader role, based on their current performance. The flawed assumption is, they will be successful leading people, just as they led themselves, as an individual performer.

    In this episode you will learn why it's okay to say "No, Thank You"
