#EverydayLeaders Interview Series

What's the Most Effective Leadership Tool?

Brady Pyle had great advice...

----

I often tell leaders that your most powerful leadership tool is a mirror

You need to start by knowing yourself, your strengths and weaknesses

I like to surround myself with people who are different from me in a variety of ways--how they grew up, personality and communication style, and leadership strengths

I also regularly seek customer feedback about the performance of my team members

Brady Pyle

Bill Castengera had this bit of advice to new and emerging #leaders:

It is easy to get caught up in tasks, but people want leaders who slow down, listen to concerns and take actions that address those concerns.

The question of whether we should push our employees or pull our employees can be a tough one.

Have high standards. If you lead correctly, your employees will want to do their best to match or exceed those standards.

I profile the extraordinary work being done by #EverydayLeaders. Leaders from the front lines of industry

WHAT I DO: 

I’m on a quest to profile the extraordinary work being done by #EverydayLeaders.  Leaders from the front lines of industry.   

HOW I DO IT:  

I start genuine conversations with real people.  We discuss what it takes to lead people in the real world.  And I help them share or develop their wisdom. 

Over the last two years, I’ve interviewed and profiled dozens of people and published their stories in Volume 1 of the Everyday Leaders Series.  Here are few examples:

➡️ Kerry Wekelo on listening to your teams —  https://goo.gl/BgU8Ma 
➡️ Ross Wirth on asking the right questions — https://goo.gl/zKjf9H
➡️ John Reagan on the art of teamwork — https://goo.gl/UPRcGn

I also help Emerging Leaders discover their innate brilliance. We use a time tested framework to align your desires and preferences with your those of your peers, teams, managers, and organization. No tricks, no secret formulas.  But the techniques are so simple my 4-year-old could do it.

"How do I Get More Clients!?"​ - that's the question I hear most often from new and not so new coaches, consultants, or other solo professionals who approach me.... and the question is often loaded with frustration, as nothing the coach had tried before seems to work.

Getting new clients is one of the most difficult tasks for most service businesses. And unless you are familiar with some of the most effective ways to get clients, you’ll end up struggling endlessly, spinning your wheels and see little to no results… And while, yes, getting new clients can be hard, it does becomes easier once you know exactly what to do, create a plan, and work that plan.

The Coaches'​ Support Group was created to provide coaches(as well as authors and speakers) with support and resources they need:
- get all your questions answered (Remember, "Ask and You Shall Receive!"​ :) ) 
- find out how to market your services more effectively
- discover how generate more leads with less effort
- attract a constant flow of paying clients
- technical support (when possible) for web-design, email marketing, blog-building, etc - Just ask our members and you'll be surprised on the wealth and quality of tips you'll receive

"Communication-Skills Magic" is a DiSC Behavioral Model  based book that was inspired by the life-changing effects of DISC  on my life and the lives of those around me (nothing short of magical)...

In 2003 I participated in a 4-hour DISC seminar and it changed the dynamics of all my relationships.  As a result, I became a DiSC trainer, and in the past 5 years I attempted to affect other people’s lives the same way as mine was affected in my first DISC seminar.  This book, is just an extension of my desire to "spread the word" and create a more peaceful world one person at a time...

***  the book also contains a list of careers that most behavioral (or personality) styles tend to be most successful at and enjoy most...
