In this episode, I had the pleasure of speaking with Erin Meyer, a professor at INSEAD and the author of the book "No Rules Rules" which is all about the innovative culture at Netflix. 

In our conversation, Erin and I talked about the three pillars that make up Netflix's culture: talent density, candor, and freedom. We discussed how the company hires rockstars and pays them more to increase talent density, encourages candid feedback among employees to improve communication and decision-making, and removes traditional management controls like vacation and travel policies to give employees more freedom. 

We also talked about the challenges that come with creating such a culture, including how to balance transparency with confidentiality and how to maintain a sense of teamwork without job security.

In this second part of the interview with Jay Papasan, the New York Times bestselling author of The One Thing, we   dive into a topic that's been on my mind lately - the importance of accountability and the danger of falling into a victim mentality. 

Jay shares his insights on how to avoid victim thinking and take ownership of your life and career. He emphasizes the importance of acknowledging our starting points and looking for areas where we still have control. This mindset shift can empower us to create our own future, rather than feeling helpless and at the mercy of our circumstances.

In this episode, I chat with Jay Papasan, co-author of "The One Thing", about productivity, time management, and personal development. We discuss how to identify your "one thing" and its importance for individuals and organizations. Here are some highlights:

What I found really interesting about our conversation was the idea that passion can be a little bit deceptive. Jay argued that passion is fleeting and that what really matters is purpose. He suggested that if we pay attention to the decisions that make us happy, we can start to identify the things that truly matter to us and move towards achieving our self-actualization.

Do you practice the powers of ten as a leader?

A few years ago, I interviewed the CEO of IDEO, Tim Brown, and asked him about the characteristics and qualities leaders need to possess.

He told me that one of the things he believes is most valuable for a leader is the idea of practicing the powers of 10.

As a leader, you need to be able to both zoom in and zoom out.

You need to be able to get involved in the micro when needed, but at the same time, you also need to be able to zoom out and see the big picture.

Often, leaders are good at one or the other, or they're not good at either. But as a leader, you need to be good at both.

Today’s discussion is with Jeff Raider who’s the co-founder and co-CEO Harry's and also the co-founder of Warby Parker. Harry’s is a 1,000 person CPG company which offers everything from razors to face care, body care, and hair care for men and women. One of the things I found fascinating about Jeff is that he helped start not one, but two very successful companies over the past decade and I wanted to understand why and how he did it.

In today’s discussion we talk about balancing short term success with long-term growth, how to earn the trust of your customers, what it takes to turn an idea into something real, and why it’s so crucial for employees to have a connection to what the company does.

It's no secret that mental health is crucial right now.

But it's also a difficult resource for a lot of people to access.

Even after you call your healthcare provider, it can take weeks before an appointment is available.

The same thing is true inside of our organizations.

If an employee is struggling with something and goes to their leader, the first thing a leader often does is try to deflect and push that employee to talk to somebody else.

But the reality is that leaders are the frontline. They need to be the frontline when it comes to mental health.

What is the impact of a great leader inside of your company?

When you work for a great leader, you feel like you can do anything.

In fact, a study ‌by Zenger Folkman found that great leaders can double company profits. Not only does this help the employees, but it also helps your organization as a whole from a financial perspective.

When you work for a great leader, their behaviors, attitudes, and values will spread inside your organization.

My guest today is Sally Helgesen, leadership coach and author of the best-selling book, How Women Rise which was written with Marshall Goldsmith. She has a new book in February called Rising Together.

In today’s discussion we look at some of the unique challenges that women face when it comes to career success. These are self-imposed challenges which oftentimes don’t have anything to do with corporate culture or structure. Some of these challenges include the disease to please, minimizing, and being reluctant to claim achievements. The interesting thing is that Sally discovered that many of these challenges also apply to men. We explore these challenges in more detail, talk about hard skill versus soft skills, and the role that competence plays in career success.

Have you ever thought about what a toxic leader does to your organization?

Toxic leaders literally kill the people who work for them!

A study by the University of Manchester looked at 1200 participants to explore the impact of bad leaders.

They found people who worked for a toxic boss had lower satisfaction, and those who worked for a narcissistic or psychopathic boss were more likely to experience clinical depression.

The scariest part is that toxic bosses’ behaviors, attitudes, and values spread inside of organizations like wildfire! Meaning, everybody around those leaders starts to behave the same way.

And suddenly, you wake up one day and realize your entire organization is disengaged, nobody wants to be there, your productivity goes down, and one day your business might even cease to exist altogether.

These leaders have low self-awareness and empathy. There should be no place in the corporate world for toxic people, especially toxic leaders.

Everybody needs leadership training.

Most people become leaders in their mid to late 20s or early 30s. However, most people don't get any kind of formal leadership training until their late 30s and perhaps early 40s.

They have to figure out how to become leaders because nobody taught them how to. This is one of the biggest things we need to fix.

Give everyone in your company access to leadership training and development programs. You are arming these individuals with tools and resources that can positively impact your business, customers, and team members.

Today’s discussion is with Ray Dalio, the billionaire founder of the world’s largest hedge fund, Bridgewater Associates. Ray is also the author of several books including his mega best-seller Principles: Life and Work which has sold well over 5 million copies. 

Our conversation today goes into some areas which I haven’t explored much in the previous episodes because I was a bit nervous to touch on them. These include how to balance telling the truth in a cancel culture world, how to own your own path and outcome in an environment where everyone says they are a victim, the blending of work life and government and issues around things like the Woke movement, the importance of meritocracy, and the difference between focusing on equal opportunity versus equal outcome.

As a leader, giving your team the answers is tempting.

Everybody comes to you for guidance and feedback.

But the best results come from not giving your team the answer, even if you know it.

If you keep giving them answers and finding the solutions for your team, you’ll become a decision-making bottleneck.

When that happens, your impact as a leader gets diminished considerably.

In today’s episode Tom talks about the two people who most influenced who he is and why, his thoughts on Jack Welch and Elon Musk in terms of leadership, why shareholder value is the wrong way of thinking about business, and if leaders today are giving more of themselves to their people than they did years ago.

There's an old saying: Good fences make for great neighbors.

If you didn't have fences, there would be no boundaries, and your neighbors could come over whenever they wanted.

You need to set up those similar types of fences in your organization.

Setting up fences is healthy both at work and in your personal life.

It allows you to protect your time and figure out the things you should be working on.

One strategy for setting boundaries is to ponder and write down the answers to these questions:

1. What are your goals?

2. What projects and tasks do you enjoy doing?

3. What projects or tasks really drain you?

4. What times during the day do you feel most productive?

5. What do you need to do during the day to feel most fulfilled?

6. What are your biggest distractions?

7. What do you want your day to look like?

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.

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?

Curiosity is a key ingredient for innovation.

According to research ‌by Dr. Todd Kashdan, there are four characteristics that highly curious people with the greatest ability to innovate possess.

1. Joyous exploration. It's the fun and excitement of trying to discover something new.

2. Deprivation sensitivity. There’s a gap between what you know and what you want to know, and you have to try to close that gap.

3. Openness to other people's ideas. It's not just about getting feedback from other people, it's about actively seeking diverse opinions.

4. Stress tolerance. The ability to deal with stress.

Boundaries are crucial in a hybrid world

As flexible work becomes a reality, one of the most important things we need to do is to set boundaries with our leaders, letting them know what's acceptable and what is not.

Connectivity does not imply availability.

What exactly does it mean to possess the skill of the translator?

Listening and communication has never been more important than it is now.

Also, you need to make sure your message is getting across, regardless of the platform or channel you're using.

This is what the skill of the translator is all about: listening and communication.

If you want to be a great leader, you have to master the mindset of the chef.

When it comes to cooking, you always have to balance ingredients. If you put too much of one thing, it becomes too sweet, too much of something else, it becomes too salty or too much of another ingredient, it becomes unhealthy or too sweet.

As a leader in this new world of work that we're all a part of, there are only two ingredients that you have to balance, which are humanity and technology.

Humanity is this aspect of making sure that your organization stays human, that you focus on purpose and meaning and undoing good. And the second aspect that you need to balance is technology, which is this idea of investing so that you can be productive and efficient and scale.

One of the most important skills leaders should have is thinking like a futurist.

Being a futurist doesn’t mean you can predict the future.

Futurists help make sure their company isn’t surprised by what the future might bring.

Especially now that the world is changing at a rapid pace, being able to think like a futurist has never been more important.

Here are some questions that could help you think like a futurist:

1. Why might something happen?

2. What else might happen?

3. What are some of the factors that will influence or impact why something will or will not happen?

4. What do you want to actually happen?

Thinking like a futurist is a tremendous asset during your leadership journey.

What will the future workplace look like?

After two years of the pandemic, most employees are demanding flexibility.

A lot of the top organizations around the world are giving their employees multiple workspaces so they can perform different types of activities in different types of environments.

Because the reality is, there is still a place for in-person work.

A lot of organizations have a factory mentality that is process-centric and does the same thing all the time.

You have to think of yourself as a laboratory. You test, experiment, and innovate.

You will make mistakes along the way, and that’s ok. That is what the laboratory mentality is all about.

It starts with the concept of challenging why things are done the way they are.

Next, you create a team. Volunteer to lead an effort to find a better way to get something done.

Then define what that future of work looks like for the organization and communicate it to others.

Experiment and empower your employees to take action.

One of the most crucial mindsets you need as a leader is the mindset of the explorer.

One of my favorite stories that perfectly sums it up is of Sir Ernest Henry Shackleton.

He was the captain of a ship with 12 men that sailed to explore the Arctic region.

Disasters struck one after the other: their ship sank, they had to live on a giant ice floe, and they went over a year without stepping on solid ground.

But for every disaster, Shackleton did not lose hope and kept finding ways to survive.

He had this aura of optimism and knew that all the obstacles and challenges he faced were things he had to overcome.

This is the mindset of the explorer.

Leaders have to be masters of communication.

There is this great episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm where Larry David talks about who you should put in the middle of a dining table during a conversation.

Now imagine a table with twenty people. This type of person should be able to keep the conversation going no matter what.

As a leader, this is a skill that you need to master.

You have to master communicating with all types of people on different kinds of platforms.

How we attract and retain talent is wrong.

Traditionally, we convince people to work for us by telling stories about our organization and our employee engagement programs.

But the problem is, we treat employee engagement like adrenaline shots. We try to distract employees from what it's actually like to work at our organizations by giving them perks and shiny things we keep throwing in their faces.

Now, there are a few organizations that have figured out how to attract and retain the best talent.

Should you focus on profits or people?

The truth is that these two are not mutually exclusive. To get to profits, you need to start by focusing on your people.

Think about where your profits come from.

Profits come from your employees who are building relationships with customers and selling more products.

So remember that people and profits are not two opposing forces that are meant to battle each other.

They are almost one and the same to get to higher growth.

Invest in your people and their experience because they are the ones who will go above and beyond to create opportunities.

Who you surround yourself with matters.

If you surround yourself with negative people, you will adopt that mindset and become a negative person.

If you surround yourself with positive people, they can push you to be the best version of yourself.

So you need to ask yourself three basic questions to get a sense of who you’re surrounded with:

Does this person help make you a better version of yourself?

Does this person build you up? Or does this person tear you down?

Does this person help you see things from a different perspective? Or does this person just help you see things from a negative perspective?

What are Wendy’s thoughts on “either/or” and “both/and” thinking? What does it mean for leaders to embrace paradoxes? Listen in as Wendy, and I discuss attitude shifts, leadership insights, and why paradoxes exist to help leaders be better leaders!

Leadership is oftentimes equated with transformation. But transformation isn't something that happens overnight. Transformation is something that takes a long time.

It’s the small things that you do over time that will lead to great impact.

Here are small things that you can do to be a better leader:

1. Recognize your team members - it can be as simple as saying thank you.

2. Put together diverse teams.

3. Practice self care - you need to take care of yourself so that you can in turn, take care of others.

4. Practice empathy - putting yourself in somebody else's shoes and perspectives and then responding based on that.

5. Take time to be curious.

6. Be sure you are listening instead of just hearing your people.

The servant mindset is one of the four most crucial mindsets that current and aspiring leaders need to master.

It's all about serving four groups:

Your leaders - serving your leaders means having a good relationship with them. Do whatever you can to make their lives easier.

Your customers - it's about making life a little bit harder on yourself so that it's easier on your customers. Go above and beyond to surprise and delight your customers so they would love to come back and even become your own brand evangelists

Your team - whether it's recognizing them, whether it's removing obstacles from their path, whatever it is, ask yourself, what can you do on an ongoing basis to help make those around you more successful, even if they become more successful than you.

Yourself - this is what most of us forget about. Practicing self-care will enable you to show up to work every day, at your best, ready to serve others.

The world is rapidly changing to become more global and more dynamic.

Because of that, the global citizen mindset is one of the most important mindsets that business leaders need to have.

So what does it actually mean? It's composed of two things:

1.   Looking at the big picture.

2.   Surrounding yourself with people who are not like you.

The pandemic has forced a lot of organizations to shift into remote work.

Some people were skeptical about it, but there’s no doubt remote work allowed things to still get done.

Microsoft recently did a study on 61,000 of their employees.

They found that during the pandemic, employees were still able to get things done and be productive. However, long-term creativity actually went down.

So the question is, do we just want to get things done? Or do we want more?

This is why in-person work still has a place in our society.

That is where a lot of great leadership comes from. That's where psychological safety comes from. That's where training and development and growth comes from.

Asking for forgiveness is better than asking for permission.

If you ask for forgiveness, it means you’re proactively trying new things and can get things done quicker.

If you do things right, you probably won’t have to ask for forgiveness that often.

Instead of waiting for people’s decisions and asking for permission, take initiative and just ask for forgiveness.

Communication is one of the most important skills a leader could have.

If you don’t know how to communicate, then your message might not be received well by your people.

But there is one thing that you have to remember - Communication isn’t just about what you say. It’s also about how you say it.

Your demeanor, tone, or body language is just as important as the message itself.

How can leaders truly make their organization a great place to work?

It starts by making a huge mental shift which is moving away from creating a place where you assume people NEED to be there, to creating a place where people WANT to be there.

This shift from NEED → WANT is what employee experience is all about.

Three tips for you as a leader:

👍Help make other people more successful THAN YOU

👍Get to know your people as human beings not just as workers

👍Think of yourself as a lighthouse, guide others!

Do you believe in work-life balance?

This topic is getting a lot of attention these days.

But work-life balance doesn’t exist.

There’s no such thing as a perfect ratio between work and life.

Life doesn’t work that way.

So instead of talking about work-life balance, the conversation should be more about work-life integration.

We need both of those things to thrive and survive.

What is the great resignation?

Millions of people around the world are quitting their jobs because they want more from their organizations.

And I think this is a good thing.

Listen to this episode to know why.

If you want to keep improving, you have to get feedback from others.

Creating a culture where feedback is encouraged is one of the best things you can do in your organization.

But how do you deliver feedback? Are you brutally honest? Or do you give soft feedback?

That’s not the problem.

The problem lies in how we receive feedback.

Oftentimes, we take it personally and get very emotional. But that’s not how we should receive feedback.

Listen in this episode and learn the best way to receive feedback.

Have you ever wondered why seemingly good ideas don’t get implemented even though people know they are good ideas? As a leader who wants to introduce a new idea or innovation, it can be challenging to convince people to get on board. 

Loran Norgren, Professor at the Kellogg School of Management and co-author of the book The Human Element: Overcoming the Resistance That Awaits New Ideas. 

In this episode, we are going to explore the psychological frictions that oppose change. Where so many leaders are obsessed with focusing on value and features, Loran argues that it’s actually four frictions that stop new ideas from being implemented.

A few months ago, Simon Sinek made a video where he said the title of CEO needs to go and be replaced by the title of Chief Vision Officer.

Simon's argument was that for every other role inside of the organization, whether it be the CTO, CHRO, or the CMO, their title basically explains what they do.

But when it comes to a CEO, most people have no clue what that person does and what that role even means.

To be honest, I think most people are actually more confused by a title like CHRO than they are by the title of CEO.

I find that people rarely say they have no idea what a CEO does.

I don't think the issue is so much that we don't know what a CEO does. The issue is more that we don't keep the CEO accountable for doing what we know they should be doing.

We know the role of a CEO is to set the vision, guide the organization, put people first, and create a better world and a better organization.

But do we actually hold CEOs responsible and accountable for doing that?

That is where I think the bigger problem is.

Just changing the title isn't going to make much of a difference.

What’s the most important part of being a successful leader?

According to Hubert Joly, former CEO of Best Buy, it’s all about being purposeful.

Purposeful leaders understand the purpose of the people around them and know what drives them.

Instead of just chasing money and power, purposeful leaders look beyond themselves to serve people and create a better world.

Everywhere we go, we see rules.

Rules are there for a reason.

They keep order and prevent mistakes from happening.

But sometimes, rules can be broken. In fact, the best leaders break rules.

Great leaders are the ones who go above and beyond to make employees, customers, and clients happier.

There are 5 things I wish I knew earlier in my career.

1. Be a taste tester. When you're younger, you likely won’t know what you want to do. It’s ok to try different things and see what you like and don’t like. Think like a taste tester.

2. Build your own ladder. You don't need to climb anybody else's ladder, especially in this new world of work. Make your own ladder.

3. Make your own decisions. It's okay to listen to the advice of others, but you need to make your own choices. Don't let anybody else make choices for you.

4. Life is too short to be miserable at work. If you are miserable at your job, do something about it.

5. Be self-aware. Understand your strengths and weaknesses to be able to get help from others early on.

There are four ways to elevate yourself, according to Robert Glazer, CEO of Acceleration Partners and author of the book Elevate.

1. Spiritually. You have to know yourself and have a level of self-awareness about who you are as a person, what you stand for, and what your values are.

2. Intellectually. Know where you're going, what your goals are, what you want to accomplish, and the direction you want to go in.

3. Physically. Take care of your body, otherwise it becomes very hard to take care of all of these other things as well.

4. Emotionally. This is about your relationships and how you respond to difficult situations and challenges. The emotional level makes all the day-to-day efforts come to life.

Making decisions in familiar circumstances is easy.

All you have to do is remember what you did successfully in the past, and then do it again.

But what do you do when you're faced with an unfamiliar situation?

The answer lies in chess--a virtually limitless game.

There are a lot of possible moves in a game of chess, but there are certain things that Grandmasters do all the time:

1. Pattern recognition

2. Follow their intuition

3. Calculate

4. Not afraid of making mistakes

We keep hearing about this concept of passion and whether or not you should follow your passion.

It reminds me of a story about a man who visits a construction site.

As he's going around the construction site, he sees a bunch of people working.

He asks the first person what they do there. And the man responds that he lays bricks.

He asks the second person, who says he is building a wall.

He asks the third person, who says he is building a cathedral.

I love this story because it's an example of three people who are doing the exact same thing with totally different mindsets.

It's not that the person building a cathedral is passionate about what he's doing, it's the fact that he's bringing his passion with him to whatever he does.

And that I think, is a far more scalable and realistic approach.

Don’t follow your passion. Instead, bring your passion with you.

How to win the war for talent by focusing on employee experience.

Employee experience is the process of redesigning your workplace practices around your people by focusing on three environments:

💓Culture: how people feel working for you

🪟Technology: the tools and resources employees use

📠Space: the spaces in which employees work

Lots of people are talking about the Great Resignation, but I see it as the Great Opportunity!

That is... if your organization is willing to step up and make change happen.

I talk about that more in this episode. Tune in and let me know what you think.

Are you a current or aspiring leader who feels stuck in your career?

If so, you’re not alone.

But thankfully, there are six strategies you can implement to unstick yourself from your career and find a way to move forward.

1. Ask why. It's easy to feel stuck. But ask yourself why you feel stuck in your current role or your current environment and get to the root of the problem.

2. Focus more on who you work with and less on the dollar figure and the brand name.

3. Be open to the possibility of making a lateral or even a backwards move so that you can then make a forward move.

4. Have an honest conversation with your leader. If you feel stuck, talk with your leader and explain your feelings. Maybe you can both do something that makes you feel unstuck.

5. Take a step back and really define where you want to go.

6. When all else fails, consider quitting. The worst thing you can do is be complacent and simply feel like you're stuck without taking any kind of action. But the best thing you can do is act.

For many years, there has been the assumption that anything related to people inside of an organization is only the responsibility of HR.

HR does the recruiting, hiring, firing, benefits, compensation, policies, and all the people-related tasks.

I'm not saying that as a leader you need to do all of these things. But as a leader, you are ultimately responsible for your people. And that is very much an HR responsibility.

Sometimes we forget the power and responsibility a leader truly has. You have the power to make or break someone's day.

As a leader, you need to know your employees as human beings, not just as workers.

You need to know what your people care about and what they value.

You need to know their strengths and weaknesses and how you can help them shine.

You need to unlock their potential and make sure they succeed.

People don't leave companies, they leave leaders. So as a leader, you are arguably the most important part of the HR department.

Do you know how to increase your productivity?

According to Dan Pink, author of When, you have to understand the three stages of your day.

We all go through these stages at different times, but the stages themselves are consistent: Peak, Trough, and Recovery.

The peak is when you have energy, when you're ready to go and you can accomplish anything. This is the time to work on your tough tasks.

The trough is when you're mentally checked out, sluggish, and not really present. This is the stage where you want to focus on the administrative tasks and things that don't require a lot of cognitive energy and effort.

The recovery happens much later in your day. This is where your mood is usually up, and it’s the best time to focus on tasks that are good for insight, such as creating tasks or brainstorming.

The key is to identify when is your peak, when is your trough, and when is your recovery. After you identify those things, you'll know which tasks you should be doing at certain times in the day.
