EP217: Plan - Leading Up And Down The Chain Of Command
We've all heard the saying, "Failing to Plan is Planning to Fail" This week Eddie and Bennett talk about the next two chapters of "Extreme Ownership" Plan and Leading up and down the Chain of Command.
You won't want to miss this episode!
EP216: Sympathy, Empathy, And Identifying Pronouns-OHHH MYYYYY!
How tolerant are you when it comes to things you don't know about? How expansive is your emotional literacy?
How willing are you to have hard conversations?
How often do you lean in when it becomes uncomfortable?
This week Bennett and Eddie talk about things that most only whisper about. Let's all muster up a bit of courage and have some really hard conversations while keeping things civil!
There are always 3 sides to every conversation. What I say and believe, what you say and believe, and then there is the truth somewhere in the middle.
EP215: Prioritize and Execute - Decentralized Command
First, find out what the most important things are that need to get done, then do it! If you want things done quicker and more efficiently, give your people the power and authority to do the work!
That's what Bennett and Eddie talk about this week, Chapters 7 and 8, Prioritize and Execute and Decentralized Command.
EP214: Keep It Simple, Cover And Move
Have you ever sat in a meeting and listened to a business plan and thought to yourself, "wow now that is a lofty plan!"
Or perhaps you are with your significant other as they begin to unfold their grandioso idea of what your next weekend is shaping up to look like?
Or on the battlefield when that well-meaning Lieutenant cracks open his planning book and spread out his battle map over the hood of your truck and the lines and shapes you see before you have the makings of what is sure to lead to someone walking away with a Medal of Honor ... but it ain't you?
What do all of these scenarios have in common? That's right... They all lack SIMPLICITY!
This week Bennett and Eddie talk about two of the most critical yet often overlooked concepts of any endeavor... Keeping things simple, and Cover and Move!
EP213: You Must Believe And Check Your Ego
You must first ask "Why" before you can "Know". You must "Know" before you can "Believe". You must "Bleve" before you can "Commit". You must "Commit" before you can "Succeed"
Ask Why
Must Know
Must Believe
Must Commit
To Succeed
Oh... And let's not forget about that little thing called "Your Ego"!!
EP212: Extreme Ownership - There Are No Bad Teams
In this episode of Change Your Point of View, Bennett and Eddie discuss Chapter 1 and 2 of Extreme Ownership. The concept of Extreme Ownership and what that means to you and the very hard topic of No bad teams, only bad leaders.
