The Olympics are taking place at the time of this podcast episode recording. We are reminded of the outstanding athletes and coaches who work together for some jaw-dropping results. If there was one attribute that we could assume from them, it would be coachability. Taking constructive feedback or outcomes that weren't what we hoped on the chin and putting it to good use to learn from it. In business, we may recoil at the feedback from our business results or individual results taking it personally or thinking that something went wrong because we did poorly. In this episode, I show you how to channel the resilience and composure we observe in these Olympic games, but for us it's in the office.

What You'll Learn From This Episode:

• How we tend to react to constructive feedback and why
• The mindset that will help you seek out and incorporate meaningful feedback
• Practical next steps to recognize feedback and extract the value from it

You have likely been told and also cautioned others to "know your audience", but we aren't often given the tools to know and deeply engage our audience. There are countless personality tests used in businesses today, such that we can get lost in the 70 question surveys and interpretations. Without the mindset upgrade I am offering in this episode, you will be unable to reap any real benefits from knowing your own leadership style or that of others. Let's get your mindset right to pave the way for using my simple leadership style profiler (the last one you will ever need) and actionable strategies to convey your message so that it is heard.

What You'll Learn From This Episode:

• The perspective shift that must happen before we hope to deeply engage our audience
