White Space and Getting Stuff Done

“It’s already the end of January and I feel like I’m catching up on last year still!” Sabrina said. She continued to explain that no matter how much she tries to schedule time to catch up and then relax, she finds all the little bits of space get filled up in her life and she feels stretched too thin. Does that ever happen for you? I know it has for me – a lot! Maybe there is another way to relate to time and energy?
What Is Better Than Resilience?

Savannah is the definition of resilient. She’s averaged more than seven painful surgeries per year for the last seven years. Once a vibrant athlete, she now experiences constant pain. Yet, her mantra is “Pain is inevitable suffering is optional.”

Today Savannah had a breakthrough that I consider a miracle of “Anti-Fragile”. She asked the question “What would it take to actually thrive instead of just not give in? What lies beyond resilient?”
What is The Return on Coaching... Really?

The questions ”Does coaching work?” and particularly “Will it work for me?” are ubiquitous among all people thinking about getting support through coaching for themselves and the achievement of their goals. What’s the return on investment of coaching, when is it best used, and how do we measure it?

Coaching is expensive: it’s an intensive, one-to-one process requiring a coach with the best training, experience, and commitment. Coaching must be seen as valuable to justify the investment. So what’s the evidence supporting the ROI of professional coaching?
Why Bother With Leadership?

Last week I was interviewed in a series on women in leadership. The interviewer asked this obvious but not simple question: “Why is leadership important?” Wow! Great question!

My answer is that the failures and gaps in leadership everywhere we look are generally the cause of most of our business and social dysfunctions. Leadership training is how we turn those dysfunctions into results.

My experience is that the skills of leadership are secondary to the integrity in leadership, and integrity is the foundation of Radical Ownership.
WHAT’S THE ONE THING YOU CANNOT DO FOR YOURSELF?

When a leader is hitting on all cylinders, strategizing, organized, able to delegate, successfully managing life at home and at work, what’s the one thing that person still cannot do for themselves?

A wonderful piano player recently described two Steinway Grand Pianos side by side, one with a sounding board, one without…. the one with a sounding board will sound like angels crooning, magical and musical. The one without will sound dead.

Regardless of business skills and leadership maturity, one cannot effectively be one’s own Sounding Board.

"I worked with Lisa during a pivotal time in my leadership. She guided me into radical ownership — of all of my talents, responsibilities, strengths, weaknesses, and mistakes, as a leader. That ownership brings incredible freedom and clarity. Lisa has a great gift for helping leaders see what’s true; about themselves and their circumstances. She helped me see things about leadership that I’d never seen before, and I continue to look back on that season with gratitude to Lisa for what I learned during the process."
David Mitchell
President at The Paterson Center
