How To Stop Missing Targets: Finding the hidden bottlenecks

11/5/2024
Episode #323 // Last week, we launched our No Bullsh!t Leadership Hub community, and it’s already firing on all cylinders. For those of you who have joined, you may have answered the initial survey questions, some of which highlight the common problems that every leader faces. One comment in particular, which was articulated beautifully by Sarah, really hit home. She said, “I think a big leadership challenge right now is capturing and communicating the nuances of what is slowing down progress, as well as utilizing data to set realistic goals.” This is a great observation, and one that I see many leaders struggling with right now. So today, I pull it apart a little.

Moment #93 Rising Above the Concrete Layer

11/3/2024
Moment #93 // Middle management jobs are the toughest jobs in any organization. You’re effectively the meat in the sandwich, and the senior leadership might see you as just another person in the concrete layer. You get pressure from above, and resistance from below, creating incredible dissonance. This can increase your stress levels to the point where you’re downright miserable. How do you rise above the concrete layer? How do you make your objectives clearer? How do you stop the never-ending tug-of-war between the allegiance you have to your boss, and the support you want to give to your people?

Is Data Illiteracy Holding You Back? How to make better decisions

10/15/2024
Episode #320 // Was Lucy Letby wrongly convicted in her healthcare murder trial? We may never know… but what we do know is that her trial was plagued by serious flaws in the statistical evidence presented by the prosecution. I find it just a little disturbing that the judge, lawyers, and jury were so innumerate, that they accepted the bogus statistics on face value. This lack of numeracy is probably just as endemic in business! But everyone talks a good game, and it’s often difficult to see the glaring holes that lie just below the surface. During my corporate career, I worked with a bunch of board directors, career politicians, and senior executives who exhibited a stunning lack of basic numeracy. In today's episode, I review the cautionary tale of the Lucy Letby trial; I take a look at how to build a robust process for decision-making; and I finish with eight ways to overcome the scourge of data illiteracy. Trigger Warning: Sensitive Content This episode includes a discussion about the trial of Lucy Letby, which touches on distressing topics such as infant deaths and the handling of evidence in serious criminal cases. These subjects may be particularly difficult for listeners who have been affected by the loss of a child or cases involving medical or legal malpractice.

Moment #89: My #1 Hack for Overcoming Self-Interest

5 Reasons Why Your Strategy is Failing and What to Do About It

10/1/2024
Episode #318 // Peter Drucker, one of the founding fathers of modern management theory said, “There is nothing so useless as doing efficiently that which should not be done at all.” This highlights just how much of what our people do, doesn’t add any real value to the company’s performance. You’ve no doubt heard me talk about value in the past — it’s the centerpiece of the No Bullsh!t Leadership framework, and it should be front of mind for every leader, every single day. But this is a lot harder in practice than it might seem… and it starts way back at the strategic planning process. Illogical leaps between planning steps, emotional attachment to the status quo, and misaligned incentives are a recipe for value destruction – and virtually every organization on the planet suffers from these ailments to some degree. In this episode, I give you 5 surefire ways to get control back, and make sure your people don’t spin their wheels by working on things that ultimately don’t deliver value. ———————— WANT TO LEARN MORE ABOUT STRATEGY FROM MARTY?

Leadership Confidence Is Crumbling… Here’s What’s Really Happening

9/24/2024
Episode #317 // Research from top executive search firm, Russell Reynolds, recently found that leaders’ confidence in their executive leadership teams (ELT) is falling: and this 3-year trend shows no signs of being reversed. What drives this erosion of confidence in the people in charge? What are leaders seeing in their ELTs that makes them question whether they know what they’re doing? We’re all aware of how rapidly the world is changing – generative AI is still in its infancy; global instability is increasing; and social change is happening faster than at any other time in human evolution. If you’re already in a CEO or senior executive role, you’re no doubt struggling to cope with the rate and complexity of the change. If you’re not, and you have aspirations to join the C-Suite, then you’d better start preparing, because it’s not looking like it’ll get any easier in the years ahead!

Moment #87 When Overruling Your Team Is the Right Move

This begs the question: are there any situations where making a captain’s call is appropriate and, if so, what might those be?

Moment #86 The Truth About Performance Reviews

9/15/2024
Performance reviews seem to have fallen out of fashion in many companies, particularly those companies that focus purely on people’s short-term needs and wants. This does your people a huge disservice, because they never gain real clarity on what’s expected of them, and whether their performance is in line with those expectations. No performance review process is perfect and, like any tool, it can be incredibly valuable in the right leader’s hands, and incredibly destructive in the wrong leader’s hands.

How to Find and Keep Rare Talent That Drives 800% More Value

9/10/2024
Episode #315 // I frequently mention high performers in passing, but I don’t often talk about how to find them, how to keep them, and how to get the most out of them. Many teams never get to experience the joy of having a star performer in their midst. And the thought of leading a real superstar can be daunting… especially if you aren’t confident in your leadership ability, or if you don’t have the appetite to stretch every individual in your team. Let’s face it, genuine high performers provide a stark contrast to some of your other team members, and many leaders aren’t prepared to face into the reality of that massive performance differential, let alone do something about it! In this episode, I take a closer look at how to attract high-end talent, and how to liberate their rare capability and impact to create massive value.

Moment #85 Achieve More with the Power of Layered Excellence

9/8/2024
Moment #85 // Enabling perfectionism creates all sorts of problems. Even though the quest for perfection sounds noble, in reality, it's mostly driven by fear of failure! It adds an enormous amount of time, cost, stress, and complexity to any piece of work, without any material improvement in the outcome. A quest for excellence is infinitely more useful: be smart, make good decisions, and keep moving. This is why, instead of perfectionism, you should think about deploying layers of excellence – it will increase your likelihood of getting a near-perfect result. If you want to take a deeper dive into overcoming the negative impacts of perfectionism, have a listen to Ep.285: When Profits Create Problems. ———————— FREE QUIZ: I’ve developed a 3-question quiz that’ll give you a free personalized podcast playlist tailored to where you are right now in your leadership career!

The Silent Career Killer: Navigating the Dark Side of Office Politics

9/3/2024
Episode #314 // Politics exists in every organization. Some companies tolerate it more than others, and it’s not uncommon for ego-driven leaders to encourage poor behavior from their most ambitious people. Leaders who tolerate or encourage political maneuvering will find that it has a direct impact on team culture, cohesion, and performance. But politics is so ingrained in human nature that it can be really hard to identify and neutralize. Politics is the path that many leaders choose when they can’t deliver results… What they lack in ability, they make up for in ambition, so they find another way to climb the ladder… and that’s often by using politics to climb over the top of their unsuspecting peers. This is just a fact of life, and the rough and tumble of office politics becomes more intense with every layer you move up. The $64,000 question is, “How do you lead at your peak, and focus on the things that truly matter, without being blindsided by office politics?” I begin the episode by defining clearly what a political player looks like, so that you can spot them more easily. I discuss how political slurs, no matter how outlandish, can outweigh objective reality. And I finish with some tips for building bullet-proof networks as a primary defense against political attacks. ———————— FREE QUIZ: I’ve developed a 3-question quiz that’ll give you a free personalized podcast playlist tailored to where you are right now in your leadership career!
