Strong Leaders Serve with Teri Schmidt
The leadership podcast for people who are in leadership not for the status and power, but instead to use that status and power to turn potential into performance for positive change.
Hosted by Teri Schmidt, Executive Leadership Coach & CEO of Strong Leaders Serve.
Each episode we focus on supporting leaders who are dealing with the overwhelming realities of transitioning into and operating in roles where their success isn't just about their own performance anymore, but about leading through complexity, ambiguity, and stakes their old playbook never had to handle. We focus on naming what's actually happening underneath the overwhelm, and finding a way back to clarity without pretending there's a five-step fix.

137. The Most Important Collaboration Skill for Work & Life
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
If I told you there was 1 collaboration skill that I think could transform culture and significantly reduce stress in our teams, homes, and communities, what would you guess it was?
Listening.
I thought I was a really good listener, especially at work. But after learning more and observing my actions, it turns out I'm not. And that unseen skill gap has led to a great deal of unnecessary frustration. How about you?
Just like last week, we're giving you a glimpse into one of the collaboration skills we teach as part of our Learn by Doing (Good) team building experiences.
And this is an important one, particularly with holiday dinner table conversations coming up.
