Why Micro Wins are So Important by Jeff Wickersham We are drawn to the walk off grand slam, bat flip, game winning home run. Instead, I recommend focusing on the micro wins each day. Those micro wins will add up and give you long term sustained success. #boomers #babyboomers

This podcast serves as a reminder as to why it’s important to find times to astonish people. When you put people in an environment where they can be astonished. The magic that is made not only in that instance, but 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 years down the road is cataclysmic. #SimonSinek #AbitofOptimism #Optimism #ChicagoBears #KevinWarren https://lnkd.in/dQwaihDu

Feedback isn’t just important for growth and development—it’s essential. Without honest conversations, leaders and teams miss out on reaching their full potential. But let’s be real: Giving direct feedback isn’t always easy or comfortable, right? I recently listened to a thought-provoking podcast by Patrick Lencioni, where he talked about being a ‘little j’ jerk. The big takeaway? Sometimes we hold back to keep the peace or in fear of being perceived as not “nice;” but by not being direct, we’re actually doing more harm than good. The trick is finding that sweet spot—being kind and direct. 😊 Check out Patrick’s thoughts here: https://lnkd.in/gPDZHRte #Leadership #BringYourFeedback #GrowthMindset #ActiveListening #DirectCommunication #HR
