Master Your Own Motivation as a Leader

We often promote the importance of developing leadership skills within organizations and communities, but have little to no evidence to quantify the value of leadership development programs or the performance of leaders who have been developed. In this episode of the Leadership Genius podcast we address the challenge of measuring, not only the effectiveness of Leadership Development programs, but leadership performance in general. How do you measure the success of training leadership development programs and the impact they have on leadership performance, as well as the health and vitality of the organization. For more information on how we measure and analyze leadership performance through Inspire Software, check out our resources page and the different ways we address this issue through our continuous performance platform. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast.  https://anchor.fm/app--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jason-diamond-arnold/message

How Do You Measure Leadership Performance?

Becoming a more effective leader often requires behavioral change in a leader. But many leaders and organizations have entrenched mindsets about what leadership is. They doubt that you can actually develop leaders or become a better leader yourself. Underestimating these mindsets, and the unspoken truths about leadership, can have a dramatic impact on your ability to implement and sustain an effective leadership development program. But the world is rapidly changing and what we know about effective leadership is evolving. Are you and your organization evolving with these changing tides? Even worse, do you think you are evolving, but in reality, stuck in old and ineffective leadership behaviors that are effecting turnover and engagement?  This week's episode of the Leadership Genius podcast addresses one of the key killers of an effective leadership development program--underestimating the mindset of leadership as you know it today.

The Problem with Leadership Development

Catching people doing things right is one of the most important practices a leader can engage in when influencing others toward a common goal. Too many employees feel like the only time they get feedback is when something gets wrong. The leadership practice of Continuous Recognition isn't about handing out awards or money as means of motivating those you lead, but rather showing a deep appreciation for the work people do when pursuing common, vision, values, or goals. This week's podcast is the final podcast in a series that looks into the art of having effective, ongoing Conversations, Feedback, and Recognition as a means of elevating performance and bringing out the best in people who are doing meaningful work. We interviewed Recognition thought leader and expert, Beth Thornton of Inspire Software about her insights on how leaders can more effectively influence others through regular recognition of employee performance. This podcast was based on the eBook, The Leaders Formula for Turning Strategy into Action, published by Inspire Software.--- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast.  https://anchor.fm/app--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jason-diamond-arnold/message

The Leadership Practice of Recognition

Feedback shouldn't be delivered only when things go sideways. It also shouldn't be delivered only once a year during a performance review. When leaders effectively give continuous feedback, they build a culture of continual growth and development toward critical business strategy. Leaders can also build skills and optimize motivation when delivering consistent feedback to the people they are influencing toward common goals. In this episode of the Leadership Genius podcast, we take explore the concept of Continuous Feedback, through the recent eBook, The Leaders Formula for Turning Strategy Into Action, we wrote for Inspire Software. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast.  https://anchor.fm/app--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jason-diamond-arnold/message

The Silver Bullet of Leadership

Leadership Development programs were broken before the chaos of 2020; now they have been shattered. How do you effectively develop leaders throughout your entire organization without taking them away from the pursuit of their objectives to learn a leadership theory? You don't! Today, leadership development happens through the regular rhythms and flow of critical work. The old model of sending leaders to workshops, or even sending them to an online course is not an effective 21st century learning and development model. Through the partnership with Inspire Software, this Leadership Genius podcast discusses how we are taking time tested leadership theory and putting it into practice through Continuous Performance Management. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast.  https://anchor.fm/app--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jason-diamond-arnold/message
