It’s inevitable that at some point in your life you will face a situation that will require you to remain calm under pressure.

Your child is choking, a customer is irate and irrational, a team member is not pulling his weight, you come upon a car accident, you fly your aircraft through a flock of birds on take-off and lose all of your engines…

How you respond to stressful situations will make or break you as a leader.

As leaders, you have no choice but to remain calm, regardless of the situation.  Therefore it’s required leaders learn how to compartmentalize their emotions and fear.

A compartmentalization technique I learned in aviation is what’s called “Hack the Clock”.

In this podcast, I discuss compartmentalization techniques that I learned in flight school that can help you remain calm in stressful situations.

In many of my keynotes, I informally poll the audience on if they view themselves as leaders or not.  

On average less than 1/3 of those polled actually raise their hand.

Here are some of the typical responses from those who didn't raise their hand:

• "I don't have the title or position."
• "I'm not the main leader."
• 'I'm waiting until I get to the top, then I'll lead."
• "I'm in the middle (or bottom)  of the company"
• "What I do makes no difference to the bottom line."

This is probably the biggest misconception about leadership; this belief that leadership comes from having a position or title. That you can’t lead if you’re not at the top.

In reality, leadership isn't something you wait around for.  It's all about influence.  And to become influential you must intentionally add value to everyone, in every situation.

When you grasp this concept you will start to see how leadership is all about choice, and that you can begin to lead from where you're at right now.  No position or title is needed.

In this episode, we deep dive into how we can shift our mindset and start adding value no-matter where we are in our lives.

Great leadership is learned, and great leaders are made, from the middle and below in organizations.  It's down in the trenches where real leadership challenges are met and solved.

It's about having the consistency & courage to meet these challenges head-on, at the lower levels, and being prepared when the higher leadership calling presents itself.

We all have way more influence than we realize.  Once we become aware of this potential, we then realize that even though good leadership starts at the top, it's the middle & below that will take it across the finish line.

An IT Executive and Entrepreneur, Rodney has spent the last 20 years working on his IT management career and real estate business.  Rodney hails from a working-class family in southeast Kansas and moved to Wichita in 1993.

How important is charisma when it comes to leadership?

When we think of leadership or ask people to define what makes a great leader, we often gravitate to the high-profile leaders with big egos and larger-than-life personalities.

In Nov 2011, Forbes published an article titled "Egomaniacs make the best leaders” In this article, they reference a study by four professors that studied 78 CEOs in the pharmaceutical/biotech industry and they concluded that “narcissism and hunger for attention lead to innovation and daring decision-making.”

There is certainly a ring of truth to this theory; after reading the Steve Jobs biography I’m convinced that Steve Jobs's genius and creativity were driven by his ego and narcissism.

Personally, I’m less concerned about ego and a larger-than-life personality being the bench mark definition of great leadership.

I’m a believer that all of us should think and act like leaders; that we all have the potential to be great in some sort of leadership capacity.

I also think that people often don’t think of themselves as leaders because they feel they don’t have the personality or “charisma” to be a leader.

I have seen many aspiring leaders spend a great deal of energy and effort on looking or acting the part of the leader.  All of their leadership development centered on developing their charisma.

Instead of studying on how to develop a larger-than-life personality, one should spend their time and energy learning how to be:

• Composed
• Confident
• Consistent
• Courageous
• Compassionate

Regardless of our charismatic style, all of us can become better leaders if we devoted our life to these Five-“Cs”; instead of developing a personality.

Charisma, for the most part, is more of a God-given talent.  It’s great if you have it; but you will get more return on your personal growth investment learning how to be calm, confident, consistent, and courageous in every aspect of your life.

Jim Collins in his book “Good to Great” has a great chapter on this topic called “Level-5 Leadership”.  In his book, he argues that all of the “Great” companies of our time had “Level-5” leaders at the helm.  Leader-5 leaders:

• Are ambitious, but ambitious first & foremost for the company, not themselves.
• Display a compelling modesty, are self-effacing and understated.
• Are fanatically driven, with an incurable need to produce results.
• Attribute success to other factors than themselves; often acknowledging good luck, not personal greatness, for their success.
• Look in the mirror and blame themselves when things go poorly.

Charisma can be a great enhancer and motivator to leadership, but it has to be backed up with substance and genuine character for it to be effective and long-lasting.

Charisma can also be a dangerous thing; it’s an authority that defies natural logic. Regardless, history is replete with tragic example upon tragic example of people following charismatic leaders without character and substance.

Great leadership is not defined by your charisma.

Great leaders focus on learning how to be modest & willful, humble & fearless.

It's so easy to get sucked into the minutia of everyday business, to fail in our leadership obligation and become a micro-manager.

Professional aviation demands that pilots stay situationally aware at all times and fight for the big picture.

There are numerous mishaps throughout aviation history where the flight crew got hyperfocused on a certain task or abnormal situation, leading to tragedy.

In this episode, I use the mishap of Eastern 401 from December 1972 to highlight the importance of maintaining the big picture, allowing you to keep everyone aligned and empowered towards your intended outcome.

In order to fight for the big picture you have to:

1. Define your Sandbox.  Communicate clearly to create alignment on what you're trying to accomplish and what you're not going to do.
2. Think strategically & leaving the tactics to your team.
3. Listen to everyone & everything.
4. Keep your eye on the future and desired outcome

Regena Thomashauer — the one and only “Mama Gena” — is a teacher and best-selling author, mother and media personality, and founder and CEO of the School of Womanly Arts, which began in her living room in 1998 and has since grown into a global movement.

Regena believes that women are the greatest untapped natural resource on the planet, and that as people of all genders reclaim the magnificence of the feminine, the patriarchy will fall away, liberating us all.

She’s dedicated her work to women, specifically, because Regena knows Woman. And while Woman is an expansive concept (there are so many ways to be a woman), those of us who identify as women are connected through a common global experience of oppression. We are living in a culture that shames our bodies, rebukes our emotionality, fears our sexuality, violates our safety, and makes us wrong for having feminine aspects, for being women at all.

In her classroom and through her books, Regena shares our foremothers’ knowledge and embodied wisdom from pre-patriarchal times, the thousands and thousands of years when goddess culture (and pleasure) reigned. She shifts the way women hold their sexuality and identities, both individually and culturally. She creates communities of women who are so outrageously and wildly expressed that they are loving the world back to itself.

“I am devoted to raising women up to feel comfortable, strong and powerful in their bodies and souls. I am devoted to banishing shame and replacing it it with irrepressible pride and joy. I am devoted to teaching women to reconnect with turn-on and to release their fire, their outrageous outrage, their unstoppable love, their enthusiasm, their eros. I am devoted to women.” — Regena Thomashauer

A restaurant operator to the core, Scott loves the sights, sounds and smells of a well-run restaurant. Growing up in St. Louis, he got his start in the restaurant business at age 15 catering events for groups of two to 6000.

Paying his way through college by managing a steakhouse, he earned a degree in restaurant and hotel management. Redler moved to Minneapolis and then Washington, DC, to manage a 5-star restaurant. Back in St. Louis, he launched his first restaurant as a sole proprietor—a quick-service Chinese food concept called Shanghai Charlie’s.

After selling that, he moved back to DC to serve as Executive Vice-President for the American Café. Scott eventually moved to Wichita, KS, accepting the position of Executive Vice President of a local restaurant group.

In 1997, Scott together with Bill Simon opened Timberline Steakhouse. In 2002, Redler again partnered with Bill Simon and his brother Randy to launch Freddy’s Frozen Custard & Steakburgers. 

Freddy's based in Kansas, has grown to more than 340 locations at last tally, and the entire chain generated $474.7 million in system-wide sales last year, creating $21.3 million in revenue for the home office—about $10 million of that as profit.

She is a passionate, articulate advocate for problem-solving, innovation, and effective leadership. Her mission is to inspire, equip and connect individuals and teams to seize opportunities, face challenges, and accelerate impact in their communities and places of work. She knows that everyone has more potential than they realize, that those closest to the problem understand the problem best, and that leading to unlock the potential in others and actually solve problems can result in both progress and joy.

Carly shares her leadership experience and approach to problem-solving in a variety of ways.

In addition to her regular speeches to students, businesses and non-profits, she is the founder and Chairman of Carly Fiorina Enterprises, and of Unlocking Potential, a non-profit organization that invests in human potential by supporting local leaders who are solving problems in their communities and places of work; equipping them with the behaviors, characteristics, disciplines and tools to increase their leadership and problem-solving capacity. Carly and her team use the experiences, stories and lessons from innovators and problem-solvers to teach practical, real-world solutions to challenges many listeners face.

Carly’s experience spans from secretary to CEO, from public to private, and from for-profit to non-profit. She started out as a secretary for a nine-person real-estate business and eventually became the first woman ever to lead a Fortune 50 company. When Carly was recruited to lead Hewlett Packard (HP) in 1999, the industry was facing the worst technology recession in 25 years. Under Carly’s leadership, revenue grew, innovation tripled, growth quadrupled, and HP became the 11th largest company in the U.S.

During her tenure at HP, the company received numerous civic recognitions, including being named one of the 100 Best Corporate Citizens by Business Ethics Magazine, one of the 100 Best Companies for Working Mothers by Working Mother Magazine, receiving a 100% rating by The Human Rights Campaign Foundation’s Corporate Equality Index, and being named one of the World’s Most Respected Companies by The Financial Times and PricewaterhouseCoopers.

After leaving HP, Carly focused her efforts on giving back. Prior to Unlocking Potential, she served as the Chairman of Good360, the world’s largest product philanthropy organization, and as Chairman of Opportunity International, a Christian-based organization that lifts millions out of poverty around the globe through micro-finance. She also founded the One Woman Initiative in partnership with Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, to engage and empower women in Pakistan, Egypt, India and the Philippines through increased access to economic opportunity.

Carly was appointed by President Bush and CIA Director Michael Hayden to serve as the Chairman of the External Advisory Board of the CIA after 9/11. In this capacity, she held the highest clearances available to a civilian, and focused her efforts on CIA recruitment policies, information technology capabilities and organizational integration.

In 2015, Carly launched a campaign for President. Running as a political outsider, Carly spoke about empowering and engaging citizens to take back government from a political ruling class that has failed to deliver results. There, many more Americans came to know her as a clear-eyed, direct leader capable of actually solving problems.

Carly is also a best-selling author. Her titles include Tough Choices and Rising to the Challenge. Her third book Find Your Way is out now.

In February 2019, Carly and The Busch School of Business at The Catholic University of America began an academic partnership. Carly was appointed the Distinguished Clinical Professor in Leadership and together they are integrating Carly’s leadership and problem-solving curriculum into the business student experience.

Ed Latimore is a modern-day renaissance man, a best-selling author, professional boxer, speaker, US Army National Guard member hailing from the great city of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

A double major in both math and physics, Ed is one of the most well-rounded men in America. His Twitter and blog are seen by millions of people every month and has been featured on numerous podcasts.

However, Ed wasn’t always the man that he is today.

Ed grew up in the projects of Pittsburgh and after his experiences with alcohol, drugs, and being violently robbed he vowed to escape and never return. Now he serves as an inspiration to millions.

His journey wasn’t always a straight path. After being kicked out of the house he was staying at, Ed had his wake up call to make something of his life. Down and out with only a string of minimum wage jobs to show for the last four years Ed resolved to become a boxer and went on a 13-0 run with 7 KOs before being featured on SHOWTIME.

This fight would prove to be a seminal moment for Ed and his development as a leader. After losing the fight in the first round Ed was attacked on social media and media outlets covering the fight.

He took an entire year off from boxing before watching his fight. During that time he did a lot of self-reflecting and decided to go back and finish his degree.

It’s from this time that Ed developed the thick skin he would need to become an internet icon.

Giraldo began his professional career in 1978 as a key member of the Rick Derringer band after competing against 200 other guitarists for the position. It wasn’t long before Rick discovered Giraldo’s piano playing prowess and quickly put those skills to work in the studio for the recording Guitars and Women. In the spring of 1979, Mike Chapman introduced Giraldo to an up-and-coming singer named Pat Benatar who had recently signed to Chrysalis Records. While impressed with the young vocalist, Chapman felt she needed a musical partner who could facilitate the creation of a sound both identifiable and powerful. Over the years Neil has produced some of their biggest hits including “Love is a Battlefield” and “We Belong.”

With a back catalog of more than 100 songs written and more than 45 million records sold, Giraldo has written, produced, arranged, and recorded for Pat Benatar, John Waite, Rick Springfield, Kenny Loggins, Steve Forbert, The Del Lords, Beth Hart, The Coors, and others, which include many Grammy-nominated and Grammy-winning hits.

Today, Giraldo’s career is as dynamic and diverse as ever. He is in the process of completing two books – one an autobiographical novel, one a motivational book on the psychology of creating. He is further expanding his Bel Chiasso entertainment company, which is developing a variety of television, film and Broadway theater projects.

If we're going to progress and make differences in this world we have to learn how to confront each other's beliefs.

Beliefs matter because people act upon their beliefs, whether those beliefs are true or not.

The best way to engage beliefs is through open and honest conversations.

This episode lays down the fundamentals we need before we begin to use conversation to combat our current social dysfunction.

Business is chaotic.  Even in organizations that fully embrace decentralized decision making, the figurative "grenade" is thrown by good intentioned leaders.

How we respond to these perceived "grenades" being thrown is worthy of intentional focus.

What do you do when these figurative grenades are thrown?

Do you run for your life? Do you deflect and give it to somebody else because you don't want to deal with it exploding in your face? Or are you a hero that jumps on the grenade and takes one for the team?

Neither of these actions is ideal.  Yes, leadership starts at the top...but it's the middle and below that brings it across the finish line.

In this episode, I detail the tactics to effectively deal with leadership disruptions and figurative "grenades" within your organization.

When a perceived grenade is thrown, true leaders sit there in a composed manner, watch it spin around, and with courage and calmness and composure to pick it up and put the pin in.  Then they asked the question to the thrower and say,  "I see this as important. What do you want me to do with this?".

This stops the perceived chaos, extracts the intent, & helps everyone become a better leader.

As co-owner and general manager of JR Motorsports, Kelley Earnhardt Miller knows what hard work, dedication, and thriving in a “man’s world” looks like. Born into racing royalty, growing up on the racetrack surrounded by and competing with NASCAR’s greatest, Earnhardt Miller learned how to stand on her own merit with a clear understanding that it was going to take a lot to keep up with the family legacy.

Now, she is sharing some of those hard-earned lessons with the world in her new book, Drive: 9 Lessons to Win in Business and in Life.

 “As the daughter of a NASCAR superstar, my name has always had the power to open doors for me,” says Earnhardt Miller. “Though I have long had a personal passion for the sport and working in the industry was a natural fit, I never wanted to ride through my career in the passenger seat of my father’s legacy. I wanted to work hard and earn every position I ever held. That’s the way my dad always wanted it. These nine lessons have changed the way I lead in business and the way I live my personal life. They’re lessons I wish someone had shared with me before I learned them the hard way, which is why I now gladly pass them along.”

In her highly anticipated book, Earnhardt Miller shares the most important lessons she’s learned over the course of her life that have impacted her incredible success:

• Being authentic and approachable - Letting go to move forward
• Customizing your communication - Aiming for the win-win
• Managing your emotions - Balancing your work with your life

According to Earnhardt Miller, these lessons aren’t a blueprint for success; they are the values and principles that have personally shaped her, not only as a high-profile executive but as a daughter, sister, wife, and mother. She firmly believes that leading a life of passion and integrity outside of the office is just as important as reaching the top of the corporate ladder.

Leadership expert, educator, & author Jim Kouzes visits with Dose of Leadership University members for an unscripted roundtable discussion. To start the discussion Jim asked the group, "What observations do you have or lessons have you learned about leadership over the last year?  If you were going to advise another executive on how to lead during a time of extreme adversity, what would you tell that person?"

Teneshia Jackson Warner developed the Dream Project to help its attendees push aside obstacles in business and in life to reach their goals. This episode is a deep dive and inspirational conversation on being more purposeful, impactful, dreaming big. It's about letting go of our external world and putting our inner-self into the driver's seat. It's all about doing the "Big Stretch" so we can realize our dreams.

It’s almost a given that we have to believe in something that is larger than ourselves – a purpose, a promise, a spirit – to energize us when we are weary. Discover how the Science of Happiness can help you.

What if you knew that today was going to be your last day?

Would you have been happy?  Would you be proud of how you lived your life?

What if you knew ten years ago that your life was going be over on this day?  

How would you have lived your life differently?

In this episode, I explore the universal truth that the universe is impersonal and will try to stop you from dreams.

It is, therefore, up to you and only you to become intentional about embracing that calling in your gut and start living a life of significance.

It's not about pursuing happiness, rather it's embracing the world and your circumstances for what they are and start living fully.

Your biggest fear should be the regret of not pursuing activities and actions that will get you closer to your purpose and universal obligation.

It's about becoming insatiably curious, fueling energies towards your passions, and living a life of significance.

It’s one of those basic, common sense, leadership principles that when we hear it we say to ourselves, “Of course, I understand that”.  

But successful leaders realize that you have to be intentional about setting the example.  

It’s easy to get complacent and forget that we are always on a stage; that one of the prices of leadership is personal freedom and being under a constant spotlight.

In this latest Dose of Leadership podcast episode I discuss the following concepts as it relates to “Setting the Example”:

1. You are a role model: Whether you like it or not, or realize it or not, you must realize that leadership positions demand that you accept the responsibility as a role model.  I find it amusing that certain celebrities, politicians, & athletes claim that they have a right to be something different out of the spotlight.  Hogwash; one of the realities we have to deal with when we accept a leadership role is a constant scrutiny and visibility to those we are accountable for. Therefore you must be the same person “on & off stage” and hold yourself to a higher standard.
2.  Perception is reality: And since we are constantly “on stage” we have to be “maniacal” about how we are perceived.  One of the unfortunate realities of life is that many times the facts don’t simply matter.  If you are perceived to be a thief, liar, untrustworthy, etc that is the “truth” in someone else’s eyes.  Therefore you must be diligent in your behavior and constantly ask yourself how you are being perceived.  Facts are important, facts are your friends, but never forget the power of perception and optics.
3. Attention to detail:  Because perception is reality, paying strict attention to the smallest of details will often set you apart from the pack.  People will notice how you are dressed, if you are chewing gum, if you swear, if you leave early from work, etc.  Be “maniacal” about the small stuff and you will be noticed for your efforts.
4. Avoid “appearing” managerial:  Being a leader is about position or title; it’s about action.  I’ve seen many a leader think that their position relies on delegating and relying on their positional authority to get things done.  In reality, there will be times where you actively need to show your people how you want things done.  I’m all for setting the intent and leaving the “how” up to your folks; I hate micro-management.  But, if you don’t like how something is being done, roll up your sleeves and get down in the trenches and show them how you expect it to be done.  If you don’t like how the toilets are getting cleaned, there should be nothing stopping you to show them exactly how you want it to be done.  Your position doesn’t put you above anything you are asking your folks to do.

At the end of the day, Setting the Example is simply doing the right thing, even when no-one is looking.

Oliver North is a combat decorated U.S. Marine, #1 best-selling author, founder of a small business and holder of three U.S. patents. For seventeen years he was a syndicated columnist and host of “War Stories” on FOX News Channel. In May 2018, he retired from FOX News to serve as the 66th president of the National Rifle Association of America.  

North was born in San Antonio, Texas in 1943, graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy in 1968 and served twenty-two years as a U.S. Marine. His awards for service in combat include the Silver Star, the Bronze Star for valor, and two Purple Hearts for wounds in action.

From 1983-86 he served as Counter-Terrorism Coordinator on the National Security Council staff. He helped plan the rescue of U.S. students on Grenada, the liberation of American hostages, the capture of the Achille Lauro hijackers and the raids on Muammar Gadhafi’s terror bases; after which he was targeted for assassination by Abu Nidal’s Islamic Jihad. President Ronald Reagan described him as “an American hero.”

North has authored seventeen best-selling books and is co-founder of Freedom Alliance, an organization serving wounded U.S. military personnel and their families. He is widely acclaimed for award-winning FOX News coverage of more than sixty U.S. units in combat and his Freedom Alliance “Hero College Scholarships” for children of service members killed or permanently disabled in the line of duty.

In 2020, North and a close friend founded Fidelis Publishing, a company dedicated to publishing books under the guidance of the Bible shining the light of truth in these dark times. Yet, he says his greatest achievement is being, “the God-fearing husband of one, father of four, and grandfather of eighteen.”

LtCol North and his wife Betsy live in Virginia. In November 2018, they celebrated their 50th anniversary. 

A heart centered life is…

Some of us are just getting through the day.
Some of us are gearing up to lead the way to a New Day.

For all of us… I offer ideas + programs that help people tap the intelligence of the heart. A space to talk about consciousness and shadow work in an encouraging way, and the kind of self acceptance that helps us be more compassionate to others— in relationships, commerce, and leadership.
