SL019 Self-Leadership in a Crazy World

Episode 20

Wednesday, January 21, 2026 • Duration 18:31

This episode translates Lead Yourself in a Crazy World into five practical challenges for modern leaders. Protect attention as a strategic resource—against overload and disinformation. Relate to AI consciously: clarify your stance, use a small toolset, define verification rules. Stay capable in the polycrisis: separate concern from influence, document decisions. Stay grounded in polarization: define a clear inner line and communicate with respect under pressure. Stabilize your system: body, soul, and mind—rhythm, self-efficacy, recovery. Integration via the Seven Fields of Self-Leadership as a simple self-check and next step.

SL018 Focus Instead of Constant Stress

Episode 19

Thursday, January 8, 2026 • Duration 13:56

Many executives start the day in reaction mode and lose the thinking space needed for strategic decisions. At the same time, AI accelerates the information stream and makes content harder to assess—especially as deepfakes become more credible. The episode offers three practical building blocks: first, personal focus rules that restore control over timing and channels (including fixed email windows, a daily 60–90 minute focus block, and stricter meeting discipline). Second, a simple three-question trust filter—who benefits, can I verify it, and what if it’s wrong—to prevent unnecessary escalation triggered by misinformation. Third, a reflective relationship with AI: defining green/yellow/red boundaries, using a minimal tool cockpit, and applying cyber hygiene such as second-channel verification for unusual financial or strategic requests. Small micro-rituals—like a short evening journal, a decision logbook, and a brief pause before responding—help keep clarity in daily noise and turn insight into practice.
