Resilience isn't a personality trait, says today's guest, Dr. Marie-Hélène Pelletier. "It is a state” that runs from high to low on a continuum.

Dr. Pelletier, also known as MH, is a leadership psychologist, executive coach, and senior leader with over twenty years of experience across the corporate, insurance, and governance sectors. Her award-winning book, The Resilience Plan, was named a “Top Five Book to Read” by both Inc. Magazine and Forbes.

In this episode, MH joins Daniel and Peter to examine what resilience means for today's leaders and how to apply strategic thinking to today’s challenges.

Tune in to learn:

• Why resilience exists on a continuum
• The three pillars for building resilience in the age of AI
• How leaders can support team resilience

The answer to facing the relentless pace of the AI-world isn’t heroic endurance, says MH. Rather, it's a calmer brain. With strategic thinking, leaders can strengthen resilience for both themselves and their teams.

“Change fatigue is real,” says today’s guest, Tiffany Harvey. “And everyone really navigates change very differently.”

Tiffany is a Gallup-certified CliftonStrengths® coach and client partner to Gallup. She led the CliftonStrengths program at Southwest Airlines for five years and now works as a Human Resources Manager at HOAM Ventures.

In this episode, Tiffany talks to Daniel and Peter about what strengths really are, how they can inform your leadership style and approach, and why knowing your strengths can help you deal with a constantly changing business environment.

Tune in to learn:

• How to deal with “strength envy”
• Whether it’s possible to overuse a strength
• Why curiosity could be key to understanding co-workers and direct reports in a whole new way

When faced with constant change, Tiffany says, it’s not about being fearless or embracing disruptive change. “It’s about being very mindful and intentional about selecting one or two strengths” that can help you navigate the changes you’re facing.

Between 45 and 50% of your daily actions are habitual, says today’s guest, Dr. Ron Dufresne.

Dr. Dufresne is a Professor of Management and Director of the Leadership, Ethics and Organizational Sustainability Program at St. Joseph’s University. He focuses on leadership and ethics with a particular emphasis on the role of character in leadership.

Daniel and Peter welcome Ron to discuss habits and their role in leadership. Ron suggests that habits aren’t all bad. They “take away a lot of the need for that deliberative, very cognitively taxing work that we need to do as leaders,” he says, and allow us to “focus our attention on the things that really matter.”

But habits may not always serve who we want to be as leaders–or as humans.

Tune in to learn:

• How to know when it’s time to change a habit
• How to break a habit loop and start a new one
• Two essential leadership habits to start cultivating for long-term success

Aristotle suggested that habits are practices of character, says Dr. Dufresne. “We are what we habitually do.” When we approach our habits with intentionality and self-reflection, we can become the leaders we want to be.
