200: The Business of Friendship – Why Personal Connections Should be Encouraged at Work with Shasta Nelson on the TalentGrow Show with Halelly Azulay

Employees who have a best friend at work are seven times more engaged than those who don’t. What’s behind this staggering statistic? And why are workplace friendships still considered objectionable by many? On this episode of The TalentGrow Show, Halelly chats with author, keynote speaker and leading expert on friendship Shasta Nelson about how to cultivate a healthy approach to friendships in the workplace and reevaluate harmful taboos on the topic. According to Shasta, the workplace, by default, provides a fertile ground to grow meaningful connections, and leaders should be encouraging this potential in our teams. Learn healthy relationship skills to benefit your entire workplace, discover the three requirements at the foundation of every relationship, and find out what you can do as a leader to help spark positive friendships in your workplace and maximize engagement seven-fold. Plus, get Shasta’s advice for staying connected in today’s ‘epidemic of loneliness’ brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic! Listen and be sure to share this episode with friends.

199: The Coaching Habit – How to Say Less, Ask More, and Lead Better through 10 Minute Coaching Conversations with Michael Bungay Stanier on The TalentGrow Show podcast by Halelly Azulay [Ep31 Rebroadcast]

This is a fast-moving conversation with a funny, clever, and wise man so hold on to your hat! I just had to rebroadcast my episode with guest and one of my favorite mentors, Michael Bungay Stanier. Michael is an award-winning and sought-after coach, author, and speaker. We talked about his best-selling book, The Coaching Habit. Michael wants us leaders to learn to stay a little more curious a little longer and rush to ideas and advice a little more slowly, which will ultimately let us be more effective and work less hard. He teaches us three of the seven coaching questions from his book that will help you have better coach-like conversations that take 10 minutes or less. We discuss the neuroscience of engagement, ways to help people get more ‘Ahas’ to cement their insights and learning, and the kind of question we should all try to avoid. I loved his concept of the Advice Monster (which is the topic of the latest bestselling book which Michael published after this episode first aired, titled The Advice Trap). Finally, as in every episode of The TalentGrow Show, Michael shares a highly actionable piece of advice to help you upgrade your leadership skills right away – this one in answer to a listener’s question. Listen and please share with others!
