217. Reviewing "Where Should We Begin? At Work"
This week I unbox and review "Where Should We Begin? At Work", a card deck with conversation prompts for relationships and culture at work. This deck is a collaboration between relationship expert Esther Perel and Culture Amp, an employee experience platform. I've been a fan of Esther's work for years, so I was super curious to see what she'd created for workplace relationships and I bought this deck as soon as it was released.Watch the video:https://youtu.be/l3NqtnB28wEBuy the deck:https://game.estherperel.com/products/where-should-we-begin-at-workSign up for Leadership Orientation:https://maven.com/kimnicol/leadership-orientationEnroll in Communication Strategies:https://maven.com/kimnicol/communication-strategiesFor private coaching or to learn how I can help your organization:https://kimnicol.com/Follow me on LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/kimnicol/

216. Manager Appreciation
Someone asked me how listeners find this show. I told them the truth: "I don't really know." My best guess is that you went looking for a podcast for new managers, because you had some questions about something happening at work. Or, maybe someone shared it with you after *they* stumbled upon it.In any case, you are here, listening, because you care about doing a good job. And so you've found a resource to help you do that.That is a big deal! So in this week's episode, let's focus on appreciation and giving yourself credit. I'll also share my thoughts on why it's so common for organizations to fall short of supporting their managers.Leadership Orientation is on June 18, sign up here:https://maven.com/kimnicol/leadership-orientationCommunication Strategies for Managers starts July 2, enroll here:https://maven.com/kimnicol/communication-strategiesSave 20% when you sign up with a colleague.For private coaching, contact me:https://kimnicol.com/Follow me on LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/kimnicol/
