  • サマリー

  • Today, managers are trained, coached and evaluated in 360-degree surveys. Many know everything about feedback rules, goal agreements and motivational mechanisms. Does that make them excellent leaders? Usually not, because a message that only reaches the head and does not reach the heart does little. Leadership involves the whole person, and people love good stories. So what could be more natural than conveying leadership excellence in the form of a gripping story? Whitney Breer, international management coach and experienced trainer, has been guiding leaders around the world for 25 years. She achieves the feat of a business novel that packs the current state of research on self-leadership, leadership communication, teams, project management, and other building blocks of leadership success into a story that is as entertaining as it is impressive. Before Kathleen, an ambitious but less than emphatic executive, is entrusted with the management of the family farm machinery business, her father sends her on a journey around the world. On this journey, which takes her from Lafayette, Indiana, to Bangalore, Stockholm, Sao Paulo, New Zealand and back to the States, Kathleen learns a lot about herself and about the secret of true leadership excellence.The insights and empirical values of her international sparring partners are underpinned by insights from business psychology. The result is the PRISM model of leadership, which compactly covers all facets of successful leadership. Each chapter concludes with a brief overview that managers can use to reflect on and apply the core messages for themselves. And indeed, you can learn a lot about your own leadership mission from an Indian start-up and a lot about leadership failure from the sinking of the warship Vasa during its maiden voyage in 1628.In this blog, Whitney Breer guides you through her book, the PRISM model, and the theoretical background of positive psychology.

    Strength Spotting
    2023/06/14

    Welcome to this podcast, "Leadership Starts with You." This business novel is the story, the journey and yes the evolution of Kathleen Battlefield. I invite you to join Kathleen on her journey and perhaps it will be your journey as well. 

    In this eighth podcast, we'll take a close look at Strength spotting - recognizing your own strengths and recognizing the strengths of your colleagues or co-workers - or even your children or people around you.

    You'll learn eight questions that will initiate your own self-reflection and help you identify your own strengths. Of course, you can also use these questions to identify the strengths of your colleagues and friends.

    In addition, I'll show you four questions that will help you uncover your weaknesses.

    Tune in - Find out - Grow your Life.
    And remember: Leadership starts with you!

  • Talking at Cross Purposes

    Talking at Cross Purposes
    2023/06/14

    Welcome to this podcast, "Leadership Starts with You." This business novel is the story, the journey and yes the evolution of Kathleen Battlefield. I invite you to join Kathleen on her journey and maybe it will be your journey too. 

    In this seventh podcast we tackle the topic of communication and yes, why we often talk past each other. How quickly do we label other people? Do we pigeonhole them? And every time we have something to do with that person, we perceive that person through our reality and yes personal opinion.

    I am often contacted as a counselor and coach when it is almost too late. Interpersonal hurts run very deep and the mood is either highly explosive or very icy. And from my experience, these conflicts start very small - as misunderstandings. The first little hurts occur and instead of talking about them or seeking out conversation, many people sweep such events under the rug and hope they will go away. But they don't. Like the elephant in the room, they get in the way and prevent trust and a positive working environment from being built.

    This podcast gives you tips and provides background knowledge to open up certain pigeonholes ... so you can "get out" certain people and give them another chance - perceive them differently and yes, seek dialogue instead of avoiding the elephant in the room.....

    Tune in - Find out - Grow your Life.
    And remember: Leadership starts with you!

  • Your energy is contagious

    Your energy is contagious
    2023/06/14

    Welcome to this podcast, "Leadership Starts with You." This business novel is the story, the journey and yes the evolution of Kathleen Battlefield. I invite you to join Kathleen on her journey and maybe it will be your journey too. 

    This sixth podcast is about psychological safety in a team.

    What exactly is psychological safety?  And what does it have to do with success in a team?

    It means there is a working atmosphere that allows everyone to speak up with a sense of safety, where they can ask questions without being judged, and where team members are encouraged to take risks:

    They might try something new or experiment with an existing process. Insights and mistakes are shared openly, and colleagues learn from each other. People support each other and don't talk about others behind their backs. No one spreads gossip about others, no one rolls their eyes or sighs audibly. The whole team is a safety zone, so to speak.

    And yes, these things don't happen on their own.

    In this podcast, you'll learn three specific things you can do to promote psychological safety on your team.

    Tune in - Find out - Grow your Life.
    And remember: Leadership starts with you!
