Abundance Mindset: My Win Equals Someone Else’s Loss? (Fidget Friday)

As a leader how do you build a sense of connection and belonging when you lead a community that is diverse and has many differing opinions? How do you tend to your personal relationships and make sure that your heart does not become callus when there are so many issues pulling at you in different directions? Today’s guest, Deke Copenhaver served the city of Augusta as its mayor for nine years. He is now passionate about helping other leaders connect better with those that they serve and make real change through their leadership. Connect with Deke: https://deke-copenhaver.com/   FROM TODAY’S EPISODE: What does connection require of us as leaders? How do you stay emotionally stable while leading so many people? Boundaries, relationships, and self-care for leaders   WHO IS DEKE COPENHAVER? When Deke Copenhaver took over as mayor of his hometown of Augusta, Georgia, the city’s politics were broken and riven along racial lines. Half of the city commissioners were white, half were African American. Neither group trusted the other, so nothing got done. And who was it that paid the price for all of the political posturings? The citizens of Augusta. As Deke saw it, something fundamental about leadership needed to change. So, when the opportunity arrived in 2005, Deke knew he had to run for office. Against all reasonable odds, Deke and a band of enthusiastic twenty- and thirty-somethings who knew little about running a political campaign won the election. He had his first commissioners meeting as mayor on December 20th, 2005, and began the work of being a Changemaker.   CONNECT WITH US!

How to LEVERAGE Comparison (Fidget Friday)

If your goal is to connect with more people in order to grow your business- this episode is FOR YOU. We want to get our work out into the world,  so “who you know” is super important (we cannot grow alone) however HOW you show up is just as important. Imagine being in front of the people you want to lock arms with but you are not in the right energetic state. Today we are with Gregg Clunis from Tiny Leaps Big Changes and Rich Cardona from Leadership Locker to get into the mindset of two super high-achieving people (who have personally really helped me level up) to discover their thought processes in networking and how they are able to “full show up” and make the most out of each interaction.   FROM TODAY’S EPISODE: Energy management and intentional networking Weaving habits and routines into the “conference life” Meeting people in the “right” way and playing the long game   SUBSCRIBE TO: Leadership Locker: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-leadership-locker/id1478567809 Tiny Leaps Big Changes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/tiny-leaps-big-changes/id1071032154   CONNECT WITH US!
