LEARNING MOMENTS Podcast: “I am NOT Innovative”
As we begin our Inspiring Innovations LEARNING MOMENTS line-up of podcast topics for the new year… I thought I would begin with an issue that has “flustered” me for a long time. Specifically I am referring to those who in my career have claimed: “I am NOT Innovative!”
I think you will find this podcast a little entertaining… but also very suggestive that EVERYONE has a little creativity inside them. And although some ignore it… some hide it… and some only selectively use creativity… INNOVATION can and should be a more standard part of life and every job.
I hope you enjoy the listen!

LEARNING MOMENTS: Who Owns The BIG Picture?

This month’s podcast: Who Owns The BIG Picture? … is almost a strong personnel policy directive! Too often in many businesses or organizations employees within them seem to be “once removed” from owning and standardly sharing a common message about what their business/organization stands for!
I believe it is crucial for all employees… Board members… business owners… to make sure everyone knows Who Owns The BIG Picture… BECAUSE THEY ALL DO!! There is little doubt in my mind that if everyone regularly carries forward the “CAUSE” that they stand for… progress, and profit will follow.
Enjoy the listen!
LEARNING MOMENTS Podcast: “Presentation… Who Me?”

This month’s Inspiring Innovations, LEARNING MOMENTS September 2024 podcast is important/special to me in so many ways! First, I have always believed and preached that everyone that I worked with should be confident and prepared to make a good presentation on their work “stuff” anytime.
Next, as I transitioned more in to the consultant world-of-work, I tried very hard to be the very best-in-the-business when doing a workshop, teaching a class, or making a presentation.
The “Presentation… Who Me?” podcast contains a number of suggestions on preparing for and delivering a GREAT presentation whenever asked. So maybe take notes?!
Enjoy the listen.
LEARNING MOMENTS Podcast: Selective Leadership “Skill-Grafting”

As you can guess there are many details that are part of the Selective Leadership “Skill Grafting” message. So please take some time as you hear the podcast.
I hope you enjoy the listen!
LEARNING MOMENTS Podcast: Organized For Tomorrow

This month’s Inspiring Innovations LEARNING MOMENTS Podcast was a “long-time-in-the-making”! No, I don’t mean it took me a long time to record it… rather it took me a while to organize the message in a calm… but strong way. And because I have prioritized being progressively Organized for Tomorrow my whole life/career… I didn’t want to underestimate the energy it takes to be successful in this area.
Please be advised that I have expanded my allotted podcast time to 10 minutes. And unexpectedly… I believe the extra time for discussion I allowed myself has resulted in a much more clear and understandable LEARNING MOMENT.
Enjoy the listen.
LEARNING MOMENTS: Organization & Business Responsibility SHIFTS!

Too often traditional… “We have always done it this way” operational practices stand in the way of progressive process upgrades in the workplace. You know what I mean. The “if it’s not broken… why do we need to fix or change anything” leadership/management standardized approach to change… RIGHT?!
Well this month’s Inspiring Innovations LEARNING MOMENTS podcast: Organization & Business Responsibility SHIFTS! is simply about realigning traditional operational activities to obtain greater employee workplace ownership and more diverse leadership opportunities. Keep in mind because of my self-imposed podcast time limits only two basic examples are discussed. However, the hope is to open doors in every workplace regarding the short- and long-term benefits of engaging new Organization & Business Responsibility SHIFTS!
Enjoy the listen.
