35 Secret Weapons

​UPGRADE HOW YOU LEAD AND COMMUNICATE

In order for a new behavior to become a habit, it takes intentionality.
Start working the muscle.
​
Every Tuesday, we post a Secret Weapon to practice for the week.
Practice putting it into place for this week-and be prepared to grow.
 
We're all doing the same practice together!

FEATURED SECRET WEAPON:  Week of 3/1
Secret Weapon # 33:  Head, Heart, Groin
​Secret Weapon #5,6,7:  TSP: Truthful, Specific, Positive Feedback™
 
Each of these videos features a different location and different clothing.  WHY?


Capturing and maintaining the listener’s interest is paramount to making an impact and being successful. “Same old, same old”  is just not cutting it. You’ve got to keep people interested: shatter people’s expectations right out of the gate.
Secret Weapon #12:  Looking Good
Secret Weapon #9: Humor
Secret Weapon #23: This Sentence
Secret Weapon #19: Body Language
Secret Weapon #14:  Find the Joy. Find the Fun!

​Switch it up, do the unexpected, be creative.​

​"l Iove style and fashion and, given my directorial background, location matters.  
Adding costume and set changes made the whole process  exciting and even joyous.  You can do your work and still have a blast!  Add your own personal spin to your meetings and interactions."
Secret Weapon #25: Names
                      Secret Weapon #30: Bookend Your Day
FEATURED SECRET WEAPON FOR WEEK OF FEBRUARY 22
Secret Weapon #15:  Preparation & Spontaneity


​Michael was asked which of the secret weapons were his favorites?  He replied, "No! 😭 That’s like asking which grandkid is my favorite! 😜 So, take your pick. Can't go wrong.
​
These are not in order of importance.  They are synergistically all connected. 
Secret Weapon #4:  Eye Contact
Secret Weapon #11: Exercise
Secret Weapon #1: ENERGY! ENERGY! ENERGY!
Secret Weapon #34: Stakes
Secret Weapon #27:  Self Improve
Secret Weapon #18:  Deal with Obstacles
Secret Weapon #3  Breathing
Secret Weapon #5,6,7:  TSP: Truthful, Specific, Positive Feedback™
Secret Weapon #8: Listening
Secret Weapon #10:  Diet
Secret Weapon #26: End with Action  
Secret Weapon #17: Variety of Tactics
Read something out loud, pausing at every punctuation mark. See how your voice changes after a pause. Change your volume, speed and/or pitch after each. Avoid vocal homogeneity by adding breaths.

Secret Weapon #2:  Concentration and Focus
Secret Weapon #20:  How You Talk
TSP: Truthful, Specific, Positive Feedback™

​A very bright executive in a group to whom I spoke in January challenged me about TSP. He asked if people didn’t learn better from TSN...truthful, specific and NEGATIVE feedback.

His “aha” was that he had just learned several ways to upgrade his performance because of TSP I gave OTHER leaders in his group. The “aha” was that I had said none of those things to HIM; yet he was now aware that they needed to be added to his toolbox.


Try teaching through gathering beauty instead of only calling out the ugly.
Secret Weapon #32:  Status
​​Secret Weapon #29: Refer Back to Something Someone Said​
Secret Weapon #28: Take Notes
Secret Weapon #31:  You Outside of Work
Secret Weapon #13:  Risk Taking

​Risk-taking is very personal. What is outside your comfort zone might lie sweetly in mine, and vice versa. Do something which stretches YOU. Be true to yourself: learn from, but don’t try to BE your favorite leaders. And don’t judge others about their “lack of courage” until you find out what courage means to THEM.
Incorporate the 35 secret weapons and become You on Your Best Day®
