Ep137 Crucial Conversations, with Andrew Bryant

Manage Self, Lead Others: Emotional Intelligence and Leadership for Managers

Self-leadership is the practice of intentionally influencing your thinking and feeling towards your objectives. To influence your thinking and feeling you have to become aware of the thoughts and feelings you're having and drive those thoughts and feelings towards your objectives with intentionality. And that makes you the driver of your life rather than the passenger.

Andrew Bryant opens with, "Whenever I teach feedback, the question comes, “But what if the person doesn't take the feedback? They get defensive or they get aggressive, they deflect?” Then we have to have a crucial conversation which is feedback on their ability to take feedback.

And a crucial conversation is, “Hey, we had a conversation about this. There was an agreement for a change of behavior. That behavior hasn't happened. Your choices are your choices, but you choose to be part of this team, this organization, this family; and if those behaviors continue, they are not tenable with everybody.”
