Look for Solutions in Unlikely Places
In this episode, we take a simple idea, attach it to a story, and ask you to reflect as it relates to your own leadership context. This leadership thought came to me on a morning run, and it has to do with stepping back and examining, or re-examining, everything at your disposal when faced with a problem you can’t figure out. Enjoy!
How We Onboard at Leadership Vision
In this episode, we introduce Amy Rollinger, our wonderful new colleague who joined our team a little over four months ago (at the time of recording).

Whether you’re someone looking to make your own job shift or career change, or a manager who wants to know how to onboard someone in an effective way, this episode will be really helpful for you.

Spring Break Reflections: How Our Strengths Show Up
In this episode, Linda and Nathan reflect on recent trips they took over spring break and how they saw their Strengths show up in different situations and experiences. This exercise in reflection is an example of what we often do with clients. We ask them to use a recent event or activity or any life situation and reflect on how they saw their Strengths show up. It’s not only a way to better understand your Strengths or the Strengths of those around you, but it can also be a way to process all of life’s experiences.

How to Manage Temporary and Permanent Adaptations
In this episode, Brian and Nathan share an unscripted conversation about current life challenges and adaptation. We take one simple idea and run with it. In short, we talk about adaptation and wellbeing. We discuss some ideas about how to figure out what your business looks like, what your leadership looks like, what your family, relationships, and all kinds of other things look like as they relate to change and taking care of yourself. We also dive into a number of tips for managing adaptations whether they are permanent or temporary. Enjoy!
Is there such a thing as Strengths Balance?
There is one question we seem to get a lot as it relates to the top 5 StrengthsFinder Theme report: Is there such a thing as Strengths Balance? At Leadership Vision, we believe there is no such thing as ‘Strengths Balance’ or having the ‘right’ set of Strengths for a given job or leadership role. In this episode, we discuss our understanding of balance as it pertains to Strengths and how to shift the conversation from balanced or unbalanced to becoming the best version of you.
Strengths & Moral Conviction
In this episode of the Leadership Vision Podcast, we discuss how the language of Strengths can inform how our behaviors and convictions influence and shape others. We also investigate how our Strengths can help us understand how our moral convictions develop, how they evolve, and how they are expressed to other people. At the end of the episode, we share an activity helpful for anyone looking to dive deeper into their understanding of Strengths and moral conviction. Enjoy!
Executive Coaching with Strengths
In this episode of the Leadership Vision Podcast, we discuss our process of executive coaching and what we’ve been learning over the past 18 months.

Revisiting Tools for Greater Emotional Wellbeing
On this episode of the Leadership Vision Podcast, we’re revisiting an older episode where we talked with Melissa Hiatt about her work helping people and organizations gain greater emotional wellbeing. We dive into the four keys to courageous leadership based on the research of Dr. Brené Brown: vulnerability, values, trust, and learning to rise. We hope there is something of value here as we all wrestle with becoming emotionally healthy during this challenging time.
