  • The Enneagram and Transformation

    As a grateful member of the Institute for Conscious Being founded by Lark and Joe Howell, I found this podcast encouraging and inspiring. If you are drawn to personal healing through a loving and soulful connection, Joe’s words about the ICB and its Enneagram community will be most helpful. Hugh Ballou’s questions and comments were timely and very well chosen. I look forward to listening to more podcasts from this series. Thank you to both Hugh and to Joe.

  • Great show, relevant topics

    Good show specific to non-profit needs but often more broadly relevant. Great questions cause guests to think more deeply and provide answers with depth.

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Beyond Words: How Leadership Stories Inspire Action

Beyond Words: How Leadership Stories Inspire Action
Q: One word you want people to associate with great leadership.
The guest suggests a hyphenated phrase: human connection, highlighting the importance of relational leadership.
Are You Sabotaging Your Mission?
Q: What is one action a leader can take immediately to interrupt a self-sabotaging pattern?
Pause to acknowledge the situation, depersonalize it, and consider small, incremental shifts rather than forcing a complete overhaul.
Are You Sabotaging Your Mission?
Q: How can a strength become a weakness without the leader realizing it?
The key idea is that strength depends on usage; overusing a strength can become counterproductive, while underusing it can allow inefficiencies to persist.
Are You Sabotaging Your Mission?
Q: What's one question a leader can ask before reacting to a difficult situation?
Ask how this moment can be a benefit for me right now, which helps defuse impulse reactions and reframe the situation.
