Well, I am not so sure about this problem-led leader thing but the video at the end is a must-see...:-)))

Sometimes you need to explain the “one thing” that your audience should care about and understand.

Useful frame through which to construct a brainstorm session:
1. Choose only necessary participants 2. Know the goals beforehand-and give people time 3. Keep the session brief 4. Mandate participation 5. Encourage "bad" ideas

Social comparisons sometimes make us feel better and sometimes don’t. Here’s how to use that tendency to actually get better.

When you compare yourself to someone better than you on a dimension, that’s called an “upward social comparison”; when you compare yourself to someone you consider worse off on a given dimension, it’s “a downward social comparison.” So while these comparisons can be useful (in both directions) for figuring out where you stand, they can make you miserable, too. If you’re always making upward social comparisons and find yourself lacking something, you may start feeling bad about how you measure up.

Moving from individual contributor to a manager is tricky and delegating I believe is the hardest part. You never really want to fully let go - but if you don't you will struggle to empower your people. Nice little article for you. If you are a podcast fan like me then check out Manager Tools by Mark Horstman (he's an ex recruiter amongst other things) and has a great podcast on Delegation Skills and juggling those glass and rubber balls. Check it out - it will put everything into perspective.

There’s no single hack for improving your team’s collective emotional intelligence. As a manager, it’s the small habits you perform and encourage that ripple outward.

The freedom to question the status quo and bring up new ideas can clear the way for building interpersonal connections that every emotionally intelligent person needs.

What does it mean to listen? Listening points to four levels: what we can see and hear, the emotions and thoughts, the sensations and what's wanting to emerge (or not). How much of our listening is directed to each of these four levels? Do we really listen when we speak? Do we listen inwards, outwards, both, or neither? Listening comes from the feminine side of us, specially deep listening. What is needed for a deeper listening? What is all this noise telling us?

Leaders often mistake anger for power and fear for respect. But as we can see readily in the news these days, angry bosses and leaders are rarely effective. Having a good yell may feel cathartic in the moment, but it creates a toxic environment and erodes your standing amongst your team.

As a High D/I on the DiSC model I've always loved a good brainstorming session. Nice little article to get you thinking and perhaps change things up a little in the boardroom. Also check out Edward De Bono's 6 Thinking Hats book - fast and effective way to problem solve involving brainstorming that you might also like to read. Have a great week ahead.

Squashing bad ideas could lead people to fear speaking up, missing out on good ideas as a result. But if you’re giving every idea equal due regardless of merit, then you get off-track real fast and end up down a bad idea rabbit hole.

Great Study of 400k employees . So don't waste time on that culture deck ...Promote your best people... if teams matter promote the best team player... if productivity matters promote the best at that... the companies that do this have less turnover, more innovation and better engagement .

Cutting out distractions doesn’t just clear space to focus. As author and podcaster Manoush Zomorodi explains, it can also lead to boredom-induced creativity.

Participants were asked to leave their phones out of sight while in transit, including ignoring any impulse to walk and text, etc... This helped clear their minds for creative ideas. So the next time you’re getting coffee, as you slowly make your way to the front of the queue, just let your mind wander instead of scrolling Instagram or checking email.

Micro-managing is a stress response. Understanding it from this perspective can create an opening to change. The stress response is activated by a perception that one's emotional, psychological and or physical safety is at risk. The three F's: fight, freeze and flee are the primary reactions - micro-managing fits into the fight reaction. A fear that one's professional status as a manager is at risk.

Work-related stress is a likely culprit. When you feel overwhelmed, you worry that you don’t have a good handle on things–so what do you do? You tighten your grip on everything. The first step to loosening it up (and reducing your own stress in the process) is simply recognizing the impact that your micromanaging is having.

By chance, I came across this article which, as its title suggests, tells you how to make a great first impression during a job interview. As someone who feels they have attended, or even given, more interviews than most students, I thought I knew most tips for interviews. However, this article really surprised me in giving some unconventional tips for a job interview. Firstly, like all human beings, interviewers are naturally attracted to courteous, respectful and sincere individuals. Hence, it is important that one interacts with the receptionist in a friendly manner as it is possible that the interviewers may ask them for opinions on their job candidates. In addition, it is also important to build good rapport with the interviewers and engage them in conversation. I believe that when you interact with the interviewers in a sincere and friendly manner, it will spark their interests in you and allow you to leave a good impression on them. Also, it is critical that you are able to share a summary of your journey, experiences at the top of your head. While many may feel that this is a less than easy task to carry out, I feel it is not unusual for people to forget about simple, everyday facts when they are nervous during a job interview. I feel if we are able to give a coherent summary of our experiences, then it is more than likely that we can be an effective ambassador of our department, and achieve success. Furthermore, giving statistics to show that you are prepared and ready, is also a desired trait that one should have. Finally, I believe we should always be willing to showcase our true self - without any add on, to our interviewers. It is hence important to sometimes be vulnerable and share about your obstacles in life, as well as how you dealt with them. Finally, asking great questions that provide insight to the interviewers on your thought process and goals, is also a great way to sell yourself. While all these are good tips to prepare you for an interview, as cliché as it may seem, I truly believe that what is most important is to be yourself and trust that the interviewers will be able to see your value in the company. There is little meaning in showcasing yourself as a successful, capable individual whose only value is to put on a good show during that 15 minutes or so in the interview, but who fails to bring real significance to the company.
