After George Floyd's death, millions of dollars have been donated to charities and racial justice groups with little discussion as to what we want from those investments. I want to change that dialogue. I want EVERYONE to "BE INTENTIONAL" and create an environment where the outcomes we want can actually happen. What does "BE INTENTIONAL" mean? It means that we stop giving to charity and start putting money in Black-Owned Banks and letting "Fractional Reserve Banking" do for Blacks what it does for other communities. On January 21, 2021, I will be hosting a town hall meeting entitled, “Be Intentional: Turning Good Trouble Into Black Independence.” During this event, we will strategize ways the sons and daughters of the Black Diaspora can generate and demand the Trillions we are owed during this event.

In Episode 32, I discuss the "5 Signs That You Have A Manager Who Is About To Sink Your Department." As a senior manager, you will have several direct reports some of whom many NOT have all the management skills to lead a group. This happens more than you can imagine. Successful employees are promoted to leadership positions without getting sufficient leadership training. In this episode, I want to give you the "early warning" signs that you have a manager who may need training and additional corporate infrastructure in order to be successful. If you are a senior manager, you will enjoy this episode. Great News. FeedSpot's rankings list the Career Coaching Xs and Os Podcast as #6 among the Top 15 Career Coach Podcasts on the web.

In Episode 30, I interview Bruce Tulgan, Bestselling author, an adviser to business leaders all over the world, and sought-after keynote speaker, about his new book, The Art of Being Indispensable At Work. During the interview, we get at the root of what it takes to become a "Go-To" person in Corporate America. We also discuss the barriers that prevent most employees from achieving the "Go-To" status within their organizations. One crucial decision every successful executive must make is to know when to say "No" and How To Say "Yes." The Art of Being Indispensable At Work is a must-read for every executive seeking the corner office. Great News.

In episode 29, I interview Dr. Robert Joseph of Team Mindshift, An Innovative Training and Technology Solutions Company. In the discussion, we drill down into why virtual employees need to change the way they learn and what they learn. Dr. Joseph believes that the biggest impediment to adult learning in this modern age is emotion. Fear, Frustration, and Self-Doubt do not make a good environment for learning. All is not lost though because how you feel about something is a choice in which you can have power over. To that end, Dr. Joseph proposes that company invest in EL³G (Emotion, Learning to Learn How to Learn, Generalization) to help employees "learn-how-to-learn." Dr. Joseph argues that once you have learned how to learn, employees should invest in improving their technical skills, especially in A.I. and Data Science. If you are a CEO, this episode is for you!

In Episode 28, I discuss the Six (6) steps you should take if customers refuse service from your minority employees. In the wake of the George Floyd murder, I am learning of an increasing number of incidents in which customers are making demands that run counter to corporate moral and legal policies. In April, 2020, a customer requested that a Lowes store manager send white employees only to deliver products that they requested. The manager called the minority employee and asked him to return to the store. When Lowes corporate found out about the incident, the store manager was fired. As a manager, you should these types of incidents to continue. Don't get blindsided. Have a plan. Great News.

In Episode 27, I provide seven (7) steps that you can take to supercharge your career after the pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a dramatic impact on the business community. Consumer demand has shifted, and businesses are modifying their operations to satisfy that demand. Companies are offering "contactless" delivery of goods and services, and those who cannot pivot (i.e., transportation and hospitality) are cutting costs. In this episode, I provide ways you can use the "New Normal" to your career benefit. Great News.

In Episode 25, I interview Dave McKeown, the author of The Self-Evolved Leader. McKeown is the CEO of Outfield Leadership, Former Accenture Consultant and Former COO and then President of Predictable Success. In the interview, McKeown and I discuss how visionary heroic leaders like Steve Jobs, Mark Zuckerburg, and Elon Musk foster leadership environments where employees develop a syndrome McKeown calls "learned helplessness." In these cases, employees never reach their true potential because Hero Leaders swoop in and save the day before these employees can learn how to succeed. McKeown points to false "Urgency" as the primary reason why Heroic leaders exist. If you can eliminate Urgency, then a new type of leader can emerge, the Self Evolved Leader. Check out this episode and learn how to become a Self-Evolved Leader.

In Episode 24, I discuss the 10 ways to defeat a Bully Negotiator. A bully negotiator is someone who will seek to intimidate you so that hey can get what they want out of a negotiation. Bully Negotiators will seek impossible terms in hopes of getting terms that are EXTREMELY favorable to them. Bully Negotiators will insult your intelligence, demean your organization and will threaten to elevate the negotiations to your boss just to get leverage over you. A Bully Negotiator's goal is to make you feel like a battered spouse so that you seek to please them and blame yourself. Want to improve your negotiation skills?

In Episode 23, I interview Don Jones, author of the book "Be The Master: Achieve Success & Help Others." Don Jones is a self-taught technology professional, starting as a night-shift AS/400 operator. He grew into tech leadership, and for over a decade as a freelance writer, speaker, and classroom teacher. Today he’s a Vice President for a major technology skills management firm. Don Jones’ formal education ended with his four-year aircraft mechanic apprenticeship. For everything else, he’s relied on experience, self-learning, and a massive amount of support from past and current bosses, leaders, and mentors. Initially, Jones thought that he would never become a technologist. He was told in high school because he did not plan to attend college that he would not be successful in this field. How many of you have been told that "You are not a good fit" for that job? If you count yourself among those who raised their hands, this is a MUST listen to the podcast interview, and "Be The Boss" is a MUST purchase book (Please see the end of the Show Notes for information on how to Purchase the Book).
