My farewell episode...but actually we are moving this podcast over to our sister station HR Oxygen!  Join us there at HROxygen.com or just subscribe to it on any major podcast app.

Thanks for listening and we'll see you over at HR Oxygen!

We expect our leaders to guide us in navigating the pandemic and life after it is conquered, but how can we support them?  Our guest on this episode, Lori Ermi, is a coach, speaker, and consultant who works with leaders, coaching and training them.  Lori has some great tips for moving teambuilding events virtually as well as identifying ways we can all be more effective at communicating virtually.

COVID has disrupted most of 2020.  As we transition into the last part of the year, many businesses and schools are making the move back to the office and classroom.  This can cause a great deal of anxiety in your employees.  Our guest today, Natasha Fletcher is a therapist who specializes in helping people through anxiety.  She offer practical tips on getting YOU and your team ready to make this move.

Greetings!  Today we answer your questions again.  We talk about the idea that some people appear to have no common sense.  Then we deal with the problem where employees bring their "baggage" with them into work.  You may find the answers useful and somewhat provocative so please tune in!  Leave us a review and comments too.  We really appreciate it!

Some more questions from email!  On this episode we look at how to measure performance when you're measuring intangibles (like values).  We then look at how to prioritize time, particularly if you want to build in time to develop direct reports.  Finally, I'll give you a strategy to delegate more effectively.

Keep you questions coming!  Email them directly to me at Mack@TheBossBuilders.com!

Hey Folks!  We're back to the mail bag today.  Three questions:  

• How do I Manage Former Peers
• How Do I Get Respect from More Experienced Direct Reports
• How to Pass Along Bad News (Even if I Think it's Bad Decisions or News)

These are three really common issues bosses face so listen in for some options!

For those of you who think you have it tough being The Boss, imagine if you couldn't afford to pay them anything.  Our special guest for this episode is my Director of Marketing and Administration, Lisa Young.  She managed several volunteer teams and has three really helpful techniques she'll share with you on how to get people to do their jobs to the best of their abilities.  And imagine how well they'll work when you can pay them too!

Another episode made up from questions from the mailbag.  I'm using a tool called the SWEAR script for this one so be sure to download the document HERE.  AND, if you have a question for the show, just email it to me at Mack@TheBossBuilders.com.

Another question from the mailbag for this episode.  How are we supposed to be a great boss when we have all of these multiple generations in the workforce?  I'll answer that question with an answer that might surprise you.   Be sure to download the handout for this one and get ready for an interesting history lesson too!

From the mailbag:  How do you motivate an unmotivated employee.  I have a great model that I'll talk you through that gives you lots of options when working through this problem.  Here is a hint:  NOBODY is UNMOTIVATED.  Be sure to download the handout HERE.
