  • 8 Principles to Get You to Great
    by Michael McKinney on February 10, 2025 at 6:24 pm

    HOW do successful people think? The key to doing well is thinking well. It’s a way of being in the world. Becoming great means making the hard choices necessary to get you there. Performance coach Doug Hirschhorn advances eight principles in 8 Ways to Great that direct the decisions of top performers. Principle #1: Find Your “Why?” How questions bring up negative thoughts and inadequacies. “The reason most people go through life with big dreams but fail to achieve them is because they ask themselves ‘how’ before they know their ‘why.’” The why question energizes and motivates, “Knowing your ‘why’ is what’s going to get you to figure out how.” Ask yourself, “Why have I chosen this, and why am I still doing it?” Principle #2: Get To Know Yourself Identifying and understanding your strengths and weaknesses allows you to leverage your strengths and minimize the weaknesses that hold you back. I’m talking about the kind of self-awareness that allows you to acknowledge both your strengths and your weaknesses so that you can use them to balance each other and keep yourself going overboard in either direction. Self-awareness allows you to do more of what you’re good at and less of what you’re not. It can also send up the red flag that lets you know you’re about to do something stupid. Your weakness can force you to put guardrails in place that address your issue in such a way that it strengthens the habits that drive you forward….

  • What Can Leaders Learn from Elite Athletes About High-Level Performance?
    by Michael McKinney on February 7, 2025 at 11:17 pm

    WITH THE SUPER BOWL around the corner, what can business leaders learn from elite athletes about high-level performance? Be like Roger. And Michael. And Simone. And Usain. And many others. That’s key advice for business leaders seeking to improve their impact and excel in a sustainable, long-term way that’s good for them and everyone around them. The Roger, in this case, is none other than Roger Federer, the tennis legend considered an exemplar of athleticism and sportsmanship. But underlying Federer’s and other top athletes’ outsized success is rigorous devotion to routines and practices that optimize their state of mind and body for high-level performance. This matters to effectiveness in the business domain, too, where such practices are often ignored or dismissed, even though they support one’s centeredness and capacity to maintain focus, be creative, and make good decisions, even under great pressure. The takeaway? Leaders in any organization can enjoy higher performance on every dimension if they establish a discipline of daily, weekly, monthly, and annual practices that systematically support their centeredness. So why does maintaining practices that yield a high-performance state of mind matter so much for leadership? Here’s why. The Need for a Performance-Enhancing State of Mind A key thing athletes and leaders share is the need for a performance-enhancing state of mind. Specifically, both perform best when they are able to enter and maintain a calm, alert state under high stress, whether facing match point on the tennis court or an unexpected setback at the negotiation…

    IDEAS shared have the power to expand perspectives, change thinking, and move lives. Here are two ideas for the curious mind to engage with: I. Jonah Sachs on the expert’s trap: “While expertise can make us enormously efficient at playing an established game, it can also make us slower to realize when the game has changed and less able to respond to those changes. Our expert’s mind, so used to moving quickly and efficiently, tries to fit new information into old boxes so it can use its rapid processing power. ‘Oh, that’s just a new flavor of an old problem,’ our expert brain says. Too often it’s not. After all, most of the problems we face in a world of rapid change have little in common with a two-dimensional chessboard with rules that never change.” Source: Unsafe Thinking: How to be Nimble and Bold When You Need It Most II. Robert Pirsig on egotistical endeavors: “When you try to climb a mountain to prove how big you are, you almost never make it. And even if you do it’s a hollow victory. In order to sustain the victory you have to prove your self again and again in some other way, and again and again and again, driven forever to fill a false image, haunted by the fear that the image is not true and someone will find out.” Source: Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance * * * Look for these ideas every Thursday on the Leading…

  • From Fear to Focus: Five Tips for Unleashing Your Best Performance
    by Michael McKinney on February 5, 2025 at 12:48 am

    There are times when fear is good. It must keep its watchful place at the heart’s controls. —Aeschylus MANY people view fear as a negative, crippling emotion. However, it can act as a potent stimulus that enhances performance if we take the time to understand – and modulate – its power. The Sweet Spot of Fear Table tennis Olympian Amy Wang has had plenty of practice performing in the face of fear. She’s won the US National Table Tennis Championships in age categories of nine, ten, eleven, and thirteen before winning multiple open women’s national titles. Wang does, indeed, get scared when playing before a large crowd or on a big international stage. “But I need some kind of fear to boost my adrenaline to help me get ready,” she explains. In fact, Wang has a preferred level of “nervousness” while playing a match. On a one-to-ten scale, “Five to seven is the best for me,” she says. “If I’m not feeling any nerves before the match, it means I don’t care. I relax and don’t focus properly.” Wang’s coaches can easily tell when she’s overly nervous during a match. Usually, it’s enough to remind her to loosen up and take one point at a time to bring her back down to her preferred range. And when she’s not nervous enough? A sort of self-correcting mechanism kicks in. “If I’m too chill during a match, my opponent will start catching up, which will eventually increase my nervousness level,” she…

  • Think This, Not That
    by Michael McKinney on February 3, 2025 at 7:39 pm

    OUR mindset can either work for us or against us. A mind full of false narratives—false beliefs—will keep us from growing into our potential. Unchallenged, these negative beliefs will become the soundtrack we live by and keep us from moving in the direction of our best selves and change the outcome of our lives. Josh Axe identifies in Think This, Not That twelve mental barriers that obstruct personal growth and hinder success. Each comes with a critical mindshift—think this, not that—to realign our thinking and liberate us from our limiting beliefs. Mindshift 1: Create a Breakthrough by Unlimiting Your Beliefs We all have limiting beliefs like “I am not enough or not good enough” or “nothing good ever happens to me.” A belief changes the outcome of our life for better or worse. We need to identify our beliefs and determine if they are serving us well. Going from limiting beliefs to unlimiting beliefs is not like flipping a switch. It is a process taking one belief at a time. There’s one caveat when it comes to discerning your beliefs. You are not the things you say you will do; you are what you actually do. Beliefs are more than your feelings or deepest convictions. They align with your behavior; they demand action. THINK THIS: I can because… NOT THAT: I can’t because… Mindshift 2: Redefine Success by Becoming, Not Accomplishing Success is about what you are becoming as a result of what you do. “When you accumulate accomplishments…

  • Surviving the 9 Traps of Winning
    by Michael McKinney on January 27, 2025 at 11:21 pm

    IT IS ALWAYS a challenge to change the way you think. And success can make it that much harder. In Seduced by Success, Robert Herbold observes that “whether you are talking about individuals, small groups, or large organizations, success generates the risk of falling prey to the mindset of becoming proud, to being very comfortable with your current practices, and to losing your sense of urgency.” Instead of building on your successes, you become complacent, repeating what you have always done. The “legacy of success is too often failure.” As Peter Drucker wrote, “Success always makes obsolete the very behavior that achieved it. It always creates new realities. It always creates, above all, its own and different problems. Only the fairy tale ends, ‘They lived happily ever after.’” Here are nine traps that we face to help us put our past success into perspective and become “trapped in the exhilaration of the present.” Trap #1: Neglect: Sticking with Yesterday’s Business Model Things change. What you did yesterday does not guarantee success tomorrow. Every component of your business plan needs to be objectively examined for potential vulnerabilities. “It’s very important that your people understand that part of their job is to spot vulnerabilities and to make a lot of noise in bringing them to people’s attention so that you can take action.” At the same time, focus on what is working well. “What we should be doing is broadening the impact of what is working and adding new but related…

  • The Illusion of Innovation (and Escaping the Efficiency Trap)
    by Michael McKinney on January 24, 2025 at 10:20 pm

    ORGANIZATIONS are better managed than ever before. They have been optimized for safety, security, stability, and control. But what we need going forward is dynamic and, yes, inefficient. What is needed now is some deliberate chaos. In The Illusion of Innovation, author Elliott Parker believes that the focus on capital efficiency makes companies less capable of making big innovation bets that progress society because those bets have an uncertain payoff. The problem is that managing for predictability negates learning and progress. They are optimized for the wrong outcomes—predictability, not learning. The result is the illusion of innovation and progress while sacrificing resiliency. Over the long run, resilience beats efficiency and is, therefore, a more productive objective for scaled organizations. Innovation can (and should) be directed at both efficiency and resilience. Still, the pendulum often swings too far to efficiency, which produces organizations that are extraordinarily fragile and subject to shocks. The challenge is that our scaled organizations are optimized for the preservation of what already exists, not for building the new. Inefficiency creates learning. Corporations waste money and time on innovation efforts that destroy value. Efficient and scaled organizations may make fewer mistakes but have fewer insights. To correct this, they try to “repurpose their existing operating system—designed for efficient, scaled execution—to do something it was never designed to do: operate with a degree of inefficiency to create learning. Clayton Christensen wrote, “The worst place to develop a new business model is from within your existing business model.” There…

  • Connections: The New Currency of Our Era
    by Michael McKinney on January 22, 2025 at 9:33 pm

    THE challenges organizations face today are becoming increasingly complex, interconnected, and unpredictable. Yet, as we examine these challenges more closely, a striking realization emerges: most are rooted in connection issues. Network science heralded as the science of the 21st century, provides a groundbreaking framework for understanding connections. It uncovers profound insights into the structural and functional challenges organizations encounter, offering a transformative lens for leadership in this era of complexity. To thrive, leaders must embrace a new paradigm that prioritizes the power of connections. Let’s explore two critical domains where connections are paramount: innovation and talent management. Innovation Is a Connection Issue Innovation is no longer a choice — it’s a necessity for survival. Organizations must continuously evolve to remain relevant in a world where rapid technological advancements, globalized competition, rising customer expectations, sustainability imperatives, and the accelerating pace of change are redefining the landscape. Businesses face relentless pressure to create new products, services, and experiences. The speed of change, coupled with shrinking product lifecycles, demands an ever-present focus on reinvention. But true innovation — transformative, game-changing innovation — requires more than resources or technical expertise. It requires connections. True Innovation Requires Novel Connections Innovation doesn’t arise in isolation. It emerges when existing components — technologies, ideas, or processes — are combined in novel ways. Breakthroughs happen at the intersections. Consider these examples: • Netflix disrupted the entertainment industry by integrating streaming technology with a subscription-based model, reimagining how content is consumed. • The iPhone combined touchscreens, mobile internet,…

  • Learn to Take Time to Take Time to Change
    by Michael McKinney on January 19, 2025 at 1:42 am

    HOW do you start your day? Is it hitting snooze 4 times before you reluctantly crawl out of bed, accepting your fate of another day? Or, are you on the other side of the spectrum, waking up at 4 am in order to ‘win the day,’ hitting the gym and grabbing a quick post workout bite before most people are even awake? Maybe you are a night owl work late and take your coffee black at 2 pm. Whatever your daily routine, it may be time to look at it with a fresh pair of eyes and an intention to change something. Most people make the mistake of going big where change is concerned. The quintessential example of this is the night owl, with trouble waking up before 8 am, setting a goal to wake up early, maybe at 6:30 am every day, hoping it will help them become the person they always wanted to be. Assuming they’re like most, they might succeed in this endeavor for a few days, maybe even a week or two, but as is the way with most resolutions, they will eventually revert back to old habits. Soon, one day will turn into two, and before they know it, months have gone by and they are making the same promise all over again. Unfortunately, continually repeating the same failing scenario produces a negative feedback loop that permits people to talk disparagingly to themselves, e.g. you suck; you really should get out of bed on…

    IDEAS shared have the power to expand perspectives, change thinking, and move lives. Here are two ideas for the curious mind to engage with: I. Joel Kurtzman on leadership: “The leader is not separate from the group he or she leads. Rather, the leader is the organization’s glue—the force that binds it together, sets its direction, and makes certain that the group functions as one. Good leaders are not outsiders who cheer on a group. They are part of that group, integrated deeply into its fabric and emotional life. Connecting with the group you lead means demonstrating you are part of the group, understand its challenges, can do its jobs, and can stand the pressure and the heat.” Source: Common Purpose: How Great Leaders Get Organizations to Achieve the Extraordinary II. Greg Satell on identifying a keystone change: “To create real change, change that sticks and won’t be soon reversed, you need to identify a fundamental issue that encapsulates the value of the mission—a keystone change that is concrete and tangible, unites the efforts of multiple stakeholders, and paves the way for greater change. Revolutions don’t begin with a slogan—they begin with a cause. “It is never enough to merely state grievances to challenge the status quo. To create meaningful change, you must put forward an affirmative vision for what you want the future to look like. You have to define an alternative that is actually better, not just for those who agree with you, but for the vast…

They reinforce their sense of direction or vision with words and action.” Source: The Power of Simplicity: A Management Guide to Cutting Through the Nonsense and Doing Things Right II. Jack Welch on simplicity: “For a large organization to be effective, it must be simple. Insecure managers create complexity. Real leaders don’t need clutter. People must have the self-confidence to be clear, precise, to be sure that every person in their organization—highest to lowest—understands what the business is to achieve. But it’s not easy. You can’t believe how hard it is for people to be simple, how much they fear being simple. They worry that if they’re simple, people will think they’re simple-minded. In reality, of course, it’s just the reverse. Clear, tough-minded people are the most simple.” Source: Noel Tichy and Ram Charan: Speed, Simplicity, Self-Confidence: An Interview with Jack Welch, Harvard Business Review * * * Look for these ideas every Thursday on the Leading Blog.
