Great Leadership With Jacob Morgan

I don’t like every part of my job.

I don’t like if I'm working with a difficult client, don't get a speaking gig that I was excited for, or am working on a project I don’t like.

But that doesn’t mean I don’t love my job.

It’s ok to not like some parts of your job.

You don’t need to love every minute of your job. It’s ok to have bad days where you're frustrated, feel a little bit disengaged, or are tired.

Have you ever noticed that when we have a problem with technology, we often turn to our kids?

In today's world, every company is a technology company. That means that every leader needs to be a technology-driven leader.

This doesn’t mean you should learn how to create your own AI or be able to build your own blockchain.

But you need to understand the different technologies, how they might impact your business, team, and career, and where the potential opportunities might be.

You need to master the skill of the technology teenager.

You need to embrace technology.

Himanshu Palsule is the CEO of Cornerstone, a 4,000 person talent experience platform with thousands of business customers and millions of users around the world. Himanshu and his wife came to the U.S. from Bombay in the 80’s for a one year project at IBM that they both worked on, and they never left.

In today’s discussion we take a look at some pretty tough topics, including cancel culture, if workers today have a sense of loyalty, pride, and work ethic, if it’s crazy that we have to entice people to go back to work, and how leadership and the workplace as a whole are both changing. We also explore some of the big trends Himanshu is paying attention to and why he is so fascinated with quantum physics.

If you were to write down your corporate values on a piece of paper and walk around your space, would you see these values come to life?

In the eyes of your employees, your physical space acts as a symbol that represents what your organization stands for.

If your employees are on the frontlines, the customer experience starts to mimic the employee experience because that is where employees are working.

The physical space is 30% of the overall employee experience and should reflect the values of the organization.

Dr. Thomas Zurbuchen who is the Associate Administrator at NASA Science. He actually just stepped down from his role after leading NASA science for over 6 years. He’s behind many of the space initiatives over the past few years including the Mars Lander InSight and the James Webb Telescope. 

Today’s episode we discuss how old the universe is and if there is intelligent life somewhere in space, if we are living in a computer simulation or parallel universe, and how big our universe really is. It’s not all space talk though, Thomas also shares how he makes decisions and deals with failure,  and the difference between making a mistake versus almost making a mistake and why it’s so crucial to talk about both of these things.

The skill of Yoda is one of the most important things to have for future leaders. This means having empathy and self-awareness.

Empathy is about being able to put yourself in somebody else's shoes and understanding their perspective and where they're coming from.

Self-awareness is about how you view yourself internally and how other people view you externally

This is a crucial skill for leaders to master, especially in this virtual world where we're trying to connect with each other.

The ability to connect on a human level is all about emotional intelligence, which comes down to empathy and self-awareness.

Throughout history, we’ve created jobs that were perfect for AI.

They were repetitive jobs that anybody could do.

But we didn't have AI before. We didn't have bots and robots that could do these things.

So what did we do? We put humans in those jobs.

Now, we're at the point where we actually have the AI technology that can do the jobs that were designed for them.

And that poses a very important question for us as humans.

What does that mean for humans? What does that mean for work?

Today’s discussion is with Rick Hanson who is a psychologist, Senior Fellow at UC Berkeley’s Greater Good Science Center, and New York Times best-selling author of seven books including his recent one, Making Great Relationships: Simple Practices for Solving Conflicts, Building Connection, and Fostering Love. 

Today’s conversation is fascinating and wide ranging. We look at the role that vulnerability plays in professional relationships, the causes of stress and anxiety and what actually happens in your body when you experience these things, how to control negative feelings when they arise, and recognizing and challenging the assumptions that we have of others and of ourselves.
