Brian Braudis and High Impact Leadership

Our guest on this segment thinks very differently about LEADERSHIP - describing it as “tangible energy” He says everyone leads. Author and Executive Coach Brian Braudis has been referred to as a “momentum changer” for his ability to refocus people’s energy on their best days and their best self. He integrates what you already know about leadership with an intimate and energized shift in thinking that creates an electrified upward spiral. Show talking points: Let’s talk about the fact that we are half awake… The great philosopher William James said, compared with what we ought to be, we are only half awake. That was in 1907. I’m not exactly sure how “awake” we are today but discontentment is wide-awake! We need to pivot, shift and create an upward spiral. What is America’s Employee Engagement Problem? For example, America has an employee engagement problem. With everything we know, that issue should be long behind us. It’s up to leaders to get engaged and create engagement. Engagement begets engagement. Leaders set the tone of the organization. What is the anatomy of the ideal leader’s perspective? If leaders are saying: bad economy, the system’s broken, we’re doomed, nothing but problems, team members are thinking the same thing, if not worse. If leaders are silent then team members make it up. Leadership requires a higher perspective, one that puts team members at ease, a champion mindset that inspires unstoppable effort, and a reframe toward what worked and what is possible for the future.
