  • 690: How to Shift Behavior for Better Results, with Mitch Warner
    Jul 22 2024
    Mitch Warner: Leadership and Self-Deception Mitch Warner is a managing partner of the Arbinger Institute. The Institute has authored three best-selling books and helps leaders transform their organizations by enabling the fundamental shift in mindset that leads to exceptional results. Now in it's fourth edition, Leadership and Self-Deception: The Secret to Transforming Relationships & Unleashing Results*, is today one of the top fifty best-selling leadership books of all time. Shifting behavior in a sustainable way requires us to change our mindset. In this conversation, Mitch and I explore how self-deception gets in our way and how we can take the first step by seeing others as people. Key Points In many cases, we are the carriers of the very problems we are complaining about. We often resist this reality. We often assume we aren’t the cause of problems because of our good intentions. Mindset drives our behaviors and the effectiveness and influence of those behaviors. Seeing someone as less than a person causes us to see the world in a way that justifies our judgement. Too often, conflicts manifest as people provoking another’s behavior in order to justify themselves. Our own justification is an indicator that we may be wrong to being with. Viewing others as either better or worse than ourselves creates justification that prevents awareness and change. Get outside of yourself by meeting to learn about them. If the relationship has been strained, consider meeting to give.

  • 689: How to Use AI to Think Better, with José Antonio Bowen
    Jul 15 2024
    José Antonio Bowen: Teaching With AI José Antonio Bowen has won teaching awards at Stanford and Georgetown and is past president of Goucher College. He has written over 100 scholarly articles and has appeared as a musician with Stan Getz, Bobby McFerrin, and others. He is the author of multiple books in higher education and is a senior fellow for the American Association of Colleges and Universities. He is the author with C. Edward Watson of Teaching With AI: A Practical Guide to a New Era of Human Learning*. AI will change how we work, but it’s also going to change how we think. In this conversation, José and I explore where to begin working with AI and why those who can use it will serve a critical role in shaping what’s next. Key Points Physical maps make you smarter than GPS, but GPS is more practical for daily use. AI isn’t inherently good or bad, but like the internet, it will change how we work. AI will eliminate some jobs, but it will change every job. Those who can work with AI will replace those who can’t. Rather than thinking about creativity through the lens of responses from AI, focus on bringing creativity into your prompts. Most of the AI progress for companies is coming from non-tech folks that are figuring out how specific tasks get more efficient. AI is very good at some things and not good at others. You’ll discover how this relates to your work by experimenting with different prompts.

  • 688: The Power of Leadership Through Hospitality, with Will Guidara
    Jul 8 2024
    Will Guidara: Unreasonable Hospitality Will Guidara is the former co-owner of Eleven Madison Park, which under his leadership received four stars from the New York Times, three Michelin stars, and in 2017 was named #1 on the list of the World’s 50 Best Restaurants. He has co-authored four cookbooks, was named one of Crain's New York Business's 40 Under 40, and is the recipient of WSJ Magazine's Innovator Award. He is the author of Unreasonable Hospitality: The Remarkable Power of Giving People More Than They Expect*. We expect hospitality from a restaurant or hotel, but we often miss opportunities for this mindset at work. In this conversation, Will and I discuss effective leadership as an act of hospitality, not only for the organization and team — but for the leader themselves. Key Points Service is black and white. Hospitality is color. Hospitality elevates service not only for the person receiving it, but for the person delivering it. Hospitality is a dialogue, not a monologue. With employees, this means giving feedback continuously. When offering criticism, make a charitable assumption. The message is still the message, but the context matters. Giving attention to your top performers does a lot to invest others in their work. Make it cool to care.
