Help. One syllable, four letters, and hard to ask. Chester Elton suggests asking for help doesn’t mean you have given up. It’s just the opposite.

Do your words convey both your message and your meaning? Whether we are leading an organization, a team, or part of a household, this is important. For Krister Ungerböck, this became apparent when he was teaching a course in French. Feedback suggested he should never come back again, and he realized it came down to language and the words. Krister is the Wall Street Journal best-selling author of 22 Talk SHIFTs: Tools to Transform Leadership in Business, in Partnership, and in Life, which is the result of leading teams in 3 languages and building businesses on 5 continents. Krister provides examples of how we can shift our conversations to increase engagement and lead to better solutions. In this episode, Krister discusses: The directness of language. When to give feedback. Advice for remote leaders. This episode is brought to you by… 13 Days to Remarkable Leadership, a free leadership video series based on Kevin’s book, Remarkable Leadership.

On the day that we release this video, it’s just about the middle of the year. But whether you’re watching this video in June or you’re watching it in November, it is a very valuable practice to do a process check. A process check is an opportunity to get out of the day to day activity, look at your progress and consider how you are doing things right now as a way to see what’s working and what’s not. In this episode, I’ll share actionable tips for how to effectively do a process check in your life. Tweet it out: Sometimes it is hard to gauge progress when we are doing the work. A process check will help you see where you are, how far you have come, and perhaps help you adjust your course forward. @KevinEikenberry From This Episode: Watch future episodes of Remarkable TV as well as awesome interviews with industry experts on the Remarkable Leadership podcast here.

Pivot may have been the 2020 word of the year. For Jordan Babineaux, though, it is about changing directions and looking for new opportunities. Jordan is a former NFL player turned sports broadcaster, entrepreneur, and author of Pivot to Win. He discusses choices and the simple concept of just asking for what we want. Although you may not get what you asked for, you get the opportunity to grow and go through adversity with confidence. He also draws parallels between the teams we lead and professional football teams. Leaders need to be specific in their communication and set clear expectations. In this episode, Jordan talks to Kevin about: Fixed vs. growth mindset. Cultivating persistence. Coaching lessons from coaches.
