No Ego

This week, we're back to answering Dear Cy letters, and I think you're going to love this week's topic: Burnout. It's a big topic right now for healthcare folks, but we all can experience it regardless of our job or industry. We're going to dive into handling burnout as a manager, as well as managing your own wellbeing. I'm also going to cover something I call energy management & why unplugging is not the solution! Hear more on this topic in my podcast with Dr. Shillcutt: https://bit.ly/39LaATQ

This week, I am sharing a brief overview of the top 5 sources of drama at work from my research. I know you've heard me talk about ego as the main source, but did you know there are 4 other major contributors? Here's the great news: If we can work to manage these sources for ourselves & our teams, there’s nothing that can stop you from producing amazing results & reaching your potential, not to mention living a happier & more peaceful life.

This week Alex and I are diving into two fan letters where the ego really wants to take hold and be right. One letter deals with a person trying to get a co-worker to change their victim behaviors, lack of accountability and unwillingness to get on board. The second letter asks how they can deal with a new manager that is less experienced than they are. Tons of juicy content in this episode that you can't miss!

This week, we're back to answering fan letters! And this one is from a person who is in a complex, goal-oriented team that is frustrated by "unattainable" goals set by their boss, indicating that the team is also frustrated and unmotivated as a result. Said boss is also resistant to feedback and a poor communicator. Alex and I are going to deconstruct this letter and see if we can get down tp the facts!
