Synergy – Habit 6 – PLR 29 Aug 08, 2016

Show notes

Today, Jody and I talk about the 6th habit of highly successful pharmacists, synergy.

Do you feel like sometimes your team isn’t working cohesively, like certain members are bringing the team down?

Synergy – the whole is greater than the sums of its parts

It’s the essence of principle-centered leadership

It catalyzes, unifies, and unleashes the greatest powers with people. It takes the motive of Win/Win, the skills of empathic communication, on the toughest challenges in life

We use synergy by valuing differences, respect them, build on strengths, and to compensate for weaknesses.

Synergy at times can be chaotic if allowed by leadership

People can descend into poor decision into the workplace, but with the best of intentions. Sadly, people get burned by their experiences and feel like they can be who they are at work

You’ve either experienced this or watched this happen. Leaders will make new rules based on the actions of a few abusers, and because a few people break the rules, it limits the creative freedom for everyone

First Understand, then be Understood (with Megan Barker) – Habit 5 – PLR 28 Aug 01, 2016

Show notes

Grab a free audiobook on us!

Today, we have my lovely wife, Megan, on the show.

How do most people communicate?

Key to effective communication with others is to understand them before they understand you
As a man, I can’t emphasize how awful my brain is wired to understand my wife
Typically, when we respond to people, we do it four ways, –We evaluate (agree or disagree), we probe (ask questions from our own frame of reference), we advise (based on our own experience), we interpret (we try to figure people out based on our paradigm)
Reflective listening
1. Relay back to the listener with a rephrasing of the feeling and content
Resist the urge to fix a problem
This is a DIFFICULT SKILL!
THEN BE UNDERSTOOD
MOST PEOPLE start with logos first, which almost never works
Application
1. Next time you are in any conversation, test your ability to understand first. Resist the urge to speak your opinions immediately
2. Reflect back the content and feeling of the other people

Focus onto working with others

Interdependence vs. independence
Win/win isn’t a technique for you to pick up today. It’s a whole way of thinking that takes years of practice.

Win/lose or lose/win
Win/Win or no deal

quadrants — **First Things First! – Habit 3 – PLR 26** Jul 18, 2016
Show notes

Grab a free audiobook on us!

Today, Jody and I talk about the third habit of highly successful pharmacists.

First things first!

Have you ever had a period of your life were you just felt like you were constantly putting out fires?

Habit 1 : you are the creator – you’ve taken responsibility for your actions by becoming a proactive person
Habit 2 : create the mental creation for your life – You’ve taken the time to understand your principles that will guide your life
Habit 3 : the physical creation of habit

The third habit is the physical creation of the project. It is the manifestation of the second habit. What we’re focusing on is what’s called effective management of ourselves.

You can’t manage time, that’s impossible. What you’re really doing is managing you, self-control.
