INEFFECTIVE LEADERSHIP… That’s an easier pill to swallow than saying ‘Bad’ Leadership, I assume. In Episode 31, I’m discussing Leadership effectiveness and its impact on employees. This is Part 1 of this 2 part series. I’m exploring the negative impact ineffective leadership styles have to employees and companies when we have ineffective leadership ‘leading the way’. One phenomenon that keeps coming up is ‘Quiet Quitting’. Are we paying attention to this phenomenon that’s not new, just new in how we identify this behavior or reaction to what I will say is an impact of ineffective leadership. We’ve seen this described as ‘the team has low morale’. Well, let’s take a deeper look at low morale and where it can come from. What role does leadership play in the overall company culture and environment? What impact does this have on employees as a whole? Are we collecting this data? Why not? Employees don’t leave companies. Employees leave bad leaders. This is why leadership is so important to the overall HEALTH of a company.

SEASON 6 IS HERE!!!! We’re starting off this season with one great big BANG! BenchTalk Episode 31: Leading the Way - Part 2 You had one job! The ONE JOB Leadersh have is to help their team(s) to be successful. That’s it. A leader is EXPECTED to succeed. A Leader's success is highly dependent on the team they have around them. So wouldn’t it stand to reason that as a Leader, you’re responsible for the success of your team? In this episode, I am really digging into the responsibilities and expectations of a great leader who understands that they have ONE PRIMARY JOB… Unpopular opinion…to create a space where accountability trumps blame. Leadership means many things to many people. In my observations and direct responsibilities, Leadership is more than standing in front of a team of people telling them your vision and the road to the destination. Join me as I walk through real life examples of ineffective leadership and my recommendations on how to combat this with effective action that helps not only you, as the leader, but those around you. Join me in this episode and let’s continue the conversation this season. ************** Connect with Jackie: Website: http://www.jackiemitchellcareerconsulting.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinemitchell IG:http://www.instagram.com/jackiemitchellcc FB: http://www.facebook.com/jackiemitchellcc For more actionable steps and real world solutions on developing as an authentic leader that everyone will want to work with, download our Premium Masterclass - Authentic Leadership: https://bit.ly/jmcclp-leadershipmc FOR THE FIRST 50 PEOPLE $100 OFF Premium Leadership Masterclass discussed in this episode SPECIAL NEW YEAR DISCOUNT LINK https://bit.ly/benchtalk-100
Ann Marie’s non-traditional route to change helped her become the woman she is today. Shifting perspective and her internal reality helped change her external reality. What are we telling ourselves? Words have energy. What are we resisting? Let’s get deep… Our key discussion points in this episode are emotions, grief, trauma, life changes, and how to embrace change in every aspect of our lives. Basically you’re sitting in on my personal session :) Dr. Ann explains that the strongest emotion wins and discusses what can be preventing us from changing. She gives strategies on how to reach our goals and how to truly make the change we desire by listening to our bodies and our ‘selves’. She uses an alternative approach in her practice so you can connect with your ‘self’ through hypnosis. (And YES… I asked the question, What is hypnosis and what’s the difference between guided meditation and hypnosis!) I learned so much from this conversation as I opened up about my very personal experiences over this past year. My hope is that you open your hearts and minds to alternative modes of making a change with a different perspective and different point of view. And that my personal experience inspires you to your journey of change. *********************** Dr. Ann Marie Balkanski is a Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist and is the owner at Rapid Realization as well as the host of Rapid Realization Podcast.
