Question what is the difference between leadership 31 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 1: and management? This is good because whether you work, you know, 32 00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:50,160 Speaker 1: a nine to five or regular career job, or you 33 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:53,360 Speaker 1: are a business owner, this comes up a lot because 34 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 1: I find that a lot of people really struggle with leadership. 35 00:01:58,240 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 2: That this has come a lot. 36 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 1: One of my men tease, she has been struggling a 37 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 1: lot actually in her job with leadership. This is kind 38 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:10,960 Speaker 1: of like not her first leadership role, but certainly you know, 39 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 1: this is probably one of her more in depth leadership roles. 40 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 1: And she's having a hard time because she didn't get 41 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:21,240 Speaker 1: to pick her team, which is not abnormal in leadership. Oftentimes, 42 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 1: like if you own a business, you get to pick 43 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:24,799 Speaker 1: your team, but oftentimes if you're hired, the team is 44 00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 1: already there and the team is now really like her 45 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 1: that much. They muted and so how long it's been 46 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:38,760 Speaker 1: like just. 47 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:39,519 Speaker 2: A few months. 48 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:43,680 Speaker 1: Okay, you know, so to be to be fair, you know, 49 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:48,679 Speaker 1: my friend, she's not the warm and fuzzy type, and 50 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:50,639 Speaker 1: she's very much like I come here, I do my work. 51 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 1: She's really smart, obviously, just really smart does her work. 52 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 1: And so one of the reasons why they hired her 53 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 1: is because they felt like, you know this, this particular 54 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:02,359 Speaker 1: department lacks structure, and she's very organized, very structured. Here's 55 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 1: what we're going to do. All her ideas are amazing 56 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,440 Speaker 1: and great. I was like, oh, this is great, but 57 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 1: basically the team that she's been tasked to lead refuses 58 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 1: to do any of her ideas, and she's not getting 59 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:17,080 Speaker 1: as much support from her supervisor as far as, like 60 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 1: I guess. 61 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 2: I guess the support. 62 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 1: She's thinking of bringing the hammer down, being like you've 63 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 1: got to do the things that she's saying. And I said, well, 64 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:28,959 Speaker 1: even if your supervisor did that, they would undermine you 65 00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 1: at every turn. 66 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 2: This every turn. So I said that it sounds like. 67 00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 1: You are approaching it from a place of management and 68 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 1: not from a place of leadership, and it sounds like 69 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 1: you have a team that does not trust you, you know, 70 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 1: And I said, what is the feedback that the team 71 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 1: is giving you. And she was like, well, the feedback 72 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 1: they kind of gave too about her through her supervisor 73 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 1: is that like she's not she's not. She doesn't listen 74 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 1: to like you know, our I is and our you know. 75 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 1: And I said, okay, well it's that legitimate feedback, and 76 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 1: she was like, I guess. So she's like, not that 77 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 1: I don't listen to the ideas, but I guess listening 78 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 1: for the sake of just like a hah hah do 79 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: what I said, or listening for the sake of integration 80 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 1: into the solutions. 81 00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:18,800 Speaker 2: And I said, have you integrated any of their solutions? 82 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,479 Speaker 1: She's like, not really, because if those things worked, they 83 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 1: would been doing it before I got here. 84 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 2: So I can understand that perspective. 85 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 1: But the problem is is that like you're coming in 86 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 1: with like, here are six new things we're going to do, 87 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 1: and they're like, I don't want to do that. So anyway, 88 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:36,839 Speaker 1: my advice that I gave her is that you have 89 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 1: to build trust first. And the way to build trust 90 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 1: is this great book by Franklin Covey, and he talks 91 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 1: about that you actually don't earn trust, you give trust 92 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 1: and then you receive it back. And so what it 93 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 1: sounds like is that her team is like, it's clear 94 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:55,599 Speaker 1: that you don't value what we bring to the table, 95 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 1: and it's clear that you don't trust us to do 96 00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:59,719 Speaker 1: our jobs, and so we're not going to show up 97 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 1: for you. And you know, at first she was kind 98 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 1: of defiant, like, well, that's all right, because I'm the bulls. 99 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 2: I could do whatever, not realizing. 100 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,719 Speaker 1: That if the team gets together, they are slowly pushing 101 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:10,160 Speaker 1: her out. 102 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 2: And it's worky. 103 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 3: That's feel like a common enemy to make you really 104 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 3: get along with your colleagues. It's the best morale and 105 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:21,600 Speaker 3: the morales only because you guys have like something big 106 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:23,800 Speaker 3: and common and you're like, yeah, we all we all 107 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:24,599 Speaker 3: hate her, Okay. 108 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:27,280 Speaker 2: Cool. You know when they're at the meeting and. 109 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,279 Speaker 3: You know, the flag is like step while you while 110 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:31,600 Speaker 3: you're doing the meeting, especially, oh my god, don't let 111 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:33,680 Speaker 3: it be a virtual meeting. They are. They are. 112 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 1: The girls are waving, hey ba fan, We're gonna take 113 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:41,119 Speaker 1: a quick break and we'll be right back. 114 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,479 Speaker 2: So now my friend is like, what do I do now? 115 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:52,919 Speaker 1: I said, now, you have to do the work of 116 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:56,359 Speaker 1: leadership versus management, which is you have to start to 117 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,240 Speaker 1: build trust. You have to one. It's like, one, you 118 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 1: can't bring in sick, new different things that people are 119 00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:04,479 Speaker 1: going to do. That's overwhelming, you know any people, Yes, 120 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:07,279 Speaker 1: change that work girl, And then the change has to 121 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:10,800 Speaker 1: be collectively decided on. You know. I said, like, one 122 00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 1: of the best things one of the tools that I 123 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:15,839 Speaker 1: use for the budget Neista is I'll say, here is 124 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 1: the big overall goal, and I Am not going to 125 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:21,480 Speaker 1: make the decision of how we're going to get there, 126 00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:24,479 Speaker 1: but here's the vision. Let's do just the brain dump 127 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:29,160 Speaker 1: or we all, based upon your expertise, kind of talk through. 128 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:30,880 Speaker 2: Some of the ways we could reach this overall goal. 129 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:33,359 Speaker 1: So we have an overall financial goal, for example, and 130 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:36,039 Speaker 1: I brought like my leads and some of my thought 131 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 1: leaders on the team, and they were like, what about this? 132 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 1: What about that? And everyone got to say, well, based 133 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:42,400 Speaker 1: upon like George is the head of financials, based upon 134 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 1: the financials, that might make sense, and Tam is head 135 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:46,840 Speaker 1: of LRA, but l Ray is going to need this, 136 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:48,839 Speaker 1: like logan is all content well. 137 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:50,920 Speaker 2: And content, So everybody got to kind of share. 138 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:53,480 Speaker 1: And in the I kind of had in my head 139 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 1: that the direction I thought we should go in in 140 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 1: order to hit our income goal because since we fell 141 00:06:57,640 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 1: so short last year, I had an idea in my head, 142 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 1: but I told my I'm not sharing it into the end. 143 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 1: And what we ended up with is not the idea 144 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 1: I had in my head, not even ghosts. But it's 145 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:11,080 Speaker 1: way better and everyone's on board because we collectively decided 146 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 1: this together. So it's not a Tiffney plan, it's a 147 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 1: team plan because one they felt heard, two they feel supported, 148 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 1: and they're like, I feel valued because this ain't even 149 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 1: a plan that Tifney thart. We're going to do the 150 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 1: plan that we've decided together. And now everybody is like go, 151 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 1: Like I can see the uptick and energy because everyone's like, go, 152 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 1: go go. 153 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 2: We're working our plan. 154 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 1: And so that was a suggestion that I gave is that, like, 155 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:37,520 Speaker 1: you know, wipe everything away, say this is the you know, 156 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:40,680 Speaker 1: like our lead has picked this core goal. 157 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 2: For us to accomplish.

I'm just 176 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 3: gonna say it. I love the way that I led. 177 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 3: My team loved me, I loved him. We had respect. 178 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 3: I gained it all. However I was. I had so 179 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 3: many different experiences. I went from being able to build 180 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,839 Speaker 3: my team to then inheriting like twelve new people and 181 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 3: an acquisition who were already suspicious of everything that my 182 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 3: company was, including me. I've been younger than people that 183 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:49,320 Speaker 3: I've managed and you know, and dealt with that whole 184 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 3: like age gap difference and building still managed to build 185 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 3: respect in the way that I did it. I mean 186 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 3: we don't have a ton of time to like go 187 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 3: through all of that. But one of the first things 188 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:00,600 Speaker 3: that I the reason I asked, you know how long 189 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:02,440 Speaker 3: she's been there is you said about a few months 190 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,880 Speaker 3: or so. The first few months as a manager, you 191 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 3: should be doing nothing but listening, setting up one on ones, 192 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 3: building rapport understanding, not assuming that they are the reason 193 00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 3: that there's no good system and they're not being efficient, 194 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:20,959 Speaker 3: but letting them tell you why things are the way 195 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 3: that they are, how do things currently run? Do You 196 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 3: can't go in and just hear a story from your 197 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:29,120 Speaker 3: manager kind of summarizing everything. You need to like get 198 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:31,600 Speaker 3: in there in the trenches with them, and you can't 199 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 3: make the assumption that they don't know what they're doing. 200 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 3: They're already going to feel like you come in thinking 201 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 3: that they're dumb dumbs. It kind of reminds me of 202 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:40,559 Speaker 3: like if you're steeing like the whole trope of like 203 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:44,200 Speaker 3: the white teacher going to like an underprivileged school and 204 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:46,199 Speaker 3: they I bet they walk in and make assumptions like, oh, 205 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:50,559 Speaker 3: these kids probably can't read or whatever, and that already 206 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 3: makes the kids feel like shit. They're like, hey, it's 207 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:55,600 Speaker 3: that we are not intelligent. It's because these textbooks are 208 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 3: ten years old and we don't get resources and all that. 209 00:09:57,840 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 3: So you need to go in there and start for 210 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 3: level of respect. They can earn it, but let's go 211 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 3: ahead and give the benefit of the doubt. So going 212 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 3: with trust, you have to also as far as a leader. 213 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 3: Good leaders care about the ways that their employee's best work. 214 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,280 Speaker 3: And you may have workers who really don't care to 215 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 3: be called on in a meeting for their feedback. They 216 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:20,520 Speaker 3: may want to think about feedback and write a team later. 217 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 3: You have workers who are going to be the first 218 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 3: to raise their hand and speak out. But then you 219 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 3: got the folks who are more quiet, who can be overlooked. 220 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 3: So I say get people by themselves and really get 221 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:31,719 Speaker 3: to know what they're going through. Because you've already done 222 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 3: some damage in your first few months, I think that 223 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 3: the first thing you should do is to have a 224 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 3: big meeting to apologize and say, hey, I take ownership 225 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,640 Speaker 3: for kind of coming in with, you know, guns blazing 226 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:46,160 Speaker 3: and trying to make some changes. I want to do 227 00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 3: things differently and I need y'all's help. I'm gonna and 228 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:50,000 Speaker 3: tell them what you're going to do. I'm going to 229 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,200 Speaker 3: have you know, a half hour one on one with 230 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:54,079 Speaker 3: each of you guys individually. Then we're going to come 231 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 3: and come together and have some touch points and have 232 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:57,800 Speaker 3: some meetings, and we are going to fix this as 233 00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 3: a team. I can't do it without you start from scratch, 234 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 3: because you can't go back to your first impression. It 235 00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 3: was already a bad one. And you can't ask your 236 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 3: supervisor to lay a hammer down. You want them to 237 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 3: all quit, Go ahead, try that's what's going to happen. Yes, 238 00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:15,960 Speaker 3: you need to take ownership yourself as a leader. You 239 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:17,960 Speaker 3: can't go to your bandager and ask them to fix 240 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 3: things for you. They didn't hire you for that. They 241 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 3: hired you to fix the problem for them, you know 242 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,840 Speaker 3: what I mean. You have to make them look good 243 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,720 Speaker 3: by fixing it, and your team has to make you 244 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 3: look good, you know, implementing these new strategies. So that's 245 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 3: your first Your first stop is your apology tour, and 246 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 3: there's and you know what, it is not bad to apologize. 247 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 3: I it's never You're not going to lose their respect 248 00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 3: by not by apologizing and showing weakness. It I think 249 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 3: is a sign of strength that you can admit when 250 00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 3: you were wrong and just ask for a new beginning 251 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 3: and do things different. 252 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:53,120 Speaker 2: Yeah. 253 00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not easy because I think people don't realize that, like, 254 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:57,600 Speaker 1: leadership is not a bad I said this. 255 00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 3: It's like the reason why I was giggling is because 256 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:02,720 Speaker 3: it reminds me of me trying to like manage my 257 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:07,080 Speaker 3: four year old, Like he does not care to listen, 258 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:11,000 Speaker 3: and it's I try to you know, Me and Enrique 259 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:13,680 Speaker 3: were like dictators like no, you can't do that, No 260 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 3: you can't do this, Sit here, sit there, And I'm like, 261 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:20,000 Speaker 3: now if when I'm really impatient, that's how I try 262 00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 3: to parent. 263 00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 2: And it does not work. 264 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:25,480 Speaker 3: Does not work because he's me and yeah, reincarnated as 265 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 3: a four year old, and he's very stubborn and like, 266 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 3: so I have to build his trust in other ways, 267 00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 3: like hey, let's yes first and then you know, so 268 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:35,319 Speaker 3: it's not unlike. 269 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 2: Leadership is collaborative. 270 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:38,959 Speaker 1: That's the thing I think that you know, I think 271 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:40,839 Speaker 1: it's almost like it's almost like you know, when you're 272 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:42,840 Speaker 1: learning to like you think, well, you're gonna drive a car, 273 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 1: You're you're steering, really think you go back and forth 274 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 1: back or forth, back and forth.
