#ICYMI   🎇 🎇 Go Go GROW Season 2 Episode 14 is LIVE! 🎇 🎇   “Dance, Lead, Scale, Innovate” with Carol Fraser    Guest Expert Carol Fraser, joined Go Go GROW - B2B SMB Scale Up Coaching Podcast Host Michelle L. (Conkle) Page for this unique episode, shining the spotlight on #SwingDancing your way to better #leadership.   As CEO of C4 Talent, Creator of #DancingLeaders, and a lifelong dancer, she created a transformative, innovative, immersive, experiential program which enables participants to become better leaders, communicators, team members, collaborators and humans.    Sound too good to be true? Start dancing and find out! Check out these quotes!   "The music's still playing. That's something I always keep telling people when they're in the programs. The music hasn't stopped." ~Carol Fraser   "Everything we do in business, we make decisions from our guts, from what we're feeling. We can have a lot of data thrown at us, and that data could maybe sway a direction, but ultimately, your body makes the decision." ~Carol Fraser   “Oftentimes we'll use interchangeably #EmotionalQuotient (#EQ) or #EmotionalIntelligence. So essentially it boils down to the ability to understand, use and manage your emotions, which is of course internal to you, in a healthy way, particularly as it relates to interacting with others. You have a team that you're trying to lead, and if you as the leader don't have that level of emotional intelligence, you can't lead well and you can't necessarily expect your team to lead well.” ~Michelle Page   “Dancing, scientifically from a neurologist standpoint, builds the brain and builds synapses in the brain that actually improve an organization's ability to be a cohesive team. Imagine being able to create a cohesion while your brain is experiencing the happy chemicals. That cohesion happens faster." ~Carol Fraser   " You don't have to be the leader of a 250 person organization. You can just want to be a better human that wants to better communicate with other humans.” ~ Michelle Page   Tune in to learn more about!   Also check out: ⭐ Dancing Leaders www.dancingleaders.com ⭐ Scale Up with Michelle Office Hours with Carol Fraser 08-14-24: Is My Business Too Small to Worry About HR? https://lnkd.in/eh62triR ⭐ Scale Up with Michelle Office Hours with Carol Fraser 08-21-24: Culture & Emotional Intelligence https://lnkd.in/eRd2BsKY ⭐ The Fractional Edge Podcast hosted by Carol Fraser https://lnkd.in/gTvSATAE   Catch this episode on YouTube, Apple, Spotify and all your favorite podcast outlets.   A 🔗 to the full episode is in the comments.

🎙️ New Episode Alert! 🎧 🌟 Do you find it hard to balance Me Work with Teamwork? 🌟 It's the Manager's Conundrum. How do you balance getting your own work done with the needs of your team? Are you struggling to juggle your own work responsibilities while managing a team? Feeling overwhelmed and behind schedule? Join me in this week's episode of the ℙ𝕣𝕠𝕛𝕖𝕔𝕥 𝕁𝕠𝕪𝕗𝕦𝕝 ℙ𝕠𝕕𝕔𝕒𝕤𝕥 where we discuss the biggest mistakes Manager's make that can lead to this downward spiral. I'm sharing 3 simple processes to help you balance the "me work" with teamwork! 🌿 Key Takeaway #1: Clarify Role and Responsibilities The first step towards effective management is ensuring that your team has clarity about their individual roles and responsibilities. By setting clear expectations and providing a vision, you become the conductor of the orchestra, guiding your team members to deliver their best work. ⏰ Key Takeaway #2: Establish Boundaries An open door policy can often lead to constant interruptions and hinder your productivity. It's important to communicate your deadlines and create boundaries around your focus time. Let your team know that you need uninterrupted periods to work on your tasks, unless it's something truly critical. 🔒 Key Takeaway #3: Protect Your Focus Time. Your focus time is sacred! Identify the time of day when you're most productive and schedule your work accordingly. Protecting your focus time allows you to be there for your team and deliver quality work with ease and grace.

As we close out the week, let’s recap the essential feedback tips discussed in our latest episode of The Top Five Podcast with Cecilia Gorman. These insights are designed to help managers foster better communication and drive team success: 1. Hold Consistent One-on-Ones: Regular meetings build trust and provide a dedicated space for open dialogue. Use the “Three S’s” (Success, Struggle, Support) to keep these conversations productive and focused. 2. Set Clear Expectations: Communicate what you expect from your team members. This clarity helps prevent misunderstandings and aligns everyone’s goals. 3. Understand Feedback Receivers: Tailor your feedback approach based on how individuals receive it. Observing body language and encouraging a culture of openness can make feedback conversations more effective. 4. Put Topics "In the Ring": Create an environment where feedback topics are open for discussion. Using exercises like the “Five Things” can help team members articulate their values and make feedback feel less confrontational. 5. Prepare for Feedback Conversations: Use the “Issue, Impact, Outcome” framework to structure your thoughts before giving feedback. This preparation can reduce anxiety and help you navigate unexpected responses during discussions. By implementing these strategies, you can enhance your feedback processes and build a more engaged and productive team. Thank you once again to Cecilia for joining us and giving us such profound tips. Let us know how you go with implementing them in your business, and for more workshop tools please contact Cecilia directly. #futureofwork #excellenceproject #raelbricker #futureofculture #businessexcellence #excellence #smallsteps EP: https://lnkd.in/g3Av6E3N

Feeling Low? Try This Mindful Approach to Bounce Back Faster Even the best leaders have off days.  If you’re feeling low,  <<< try these quick, mindful resets:>>> 1. ★ Mental Inventory Check 🧠 Take 5 minutes to jot down 3 thoughts weighing you down. Acknowledge them—don’t fix them. Clarity starts with awareness. 2. ★ Change Your Input 🎧 Switch up your usual playlist or podcast. A new sound disrupts the mental routine and resets your focus. 3. ★ Leadership Reset Hour 📅 Block out an hour just for you. No work. Engage in something that recharges you—this isn’t about productivity, it’s about energy. 4. ★ “Who Needs Me at My Best?” 🤔 Shift focus outward. Think of who depends on your leadership and let that drive your comeback. Remember,  feeling low doesn’t make you less of a leader— it’s how you handle it.  And if you’re ready to take this mindset even further, we offer corporate wellness workshops and retreats designed to help leaders like you recharge and thrive.
