  Ep 54: Uncovering Organizational Blind Spots

  Sep 2, 202637 min

  In this excerpt from a Swoz monthly webinar, we tackle something every leader has, but few actively look for: blind spots. The problems that seem to appear overnight were usually brewing for months. And even though the front line knew, the information just never made it to the top. Leaders are almost always the last ones to feel the pain. Scott and Matt walk through why blind spots exist -- from filtered information, hidden system failures, and (the sneakiest one) success itself masking real weaknesses. You'll learn how to uncover them, and all the tools at your disposal to get real insight and drive actionable change. ---------- Sign up for our newsletter: https://swozconsulting.com/about/the-newsletter/ Find more info on how we are building legendary brands at: www.SwozConsulting.com Hosted on Ausha.

  Ep 53: Continuous Improvement

  Aug 19, 202654 min

  Another excerpt from one of Swoz's monthly webinars -- this time tackling one of those ideas everyone agrees with but few actually implement: continuous improvement. Kodak invented the world's first digital camera in their own skunkworks lab. Then went bankrupt to digital camera companies. Xerox PARC invented the mouse, the GUI, and Ethernet - none of which Xerox ever used. The ideas weren't the problem as much as the process was. Scott walks through why isolated innovation teams almost always fail to change the larger culture, and what actually works instead. The second half tackles the question nobody asks until it's too late: how do you drive continuous improvement without burning your team out? Managing expectations, managing energy, and -- hardest of all -- learning to stop things are the real skills. Chick-fil-A's famous drive-through wasn't invented in a day. It was 20 years of tiny tweaks. ---------- Sign up for our newsletter: https://swozconsulting.com/about/the-newsletter/ Find more info on how we are building legendary brands at: www.SwozConsulting.com Hosted on Ausha.

  Ep 52: The Employee Experience Engine

  Aug 5, 202649 min

  This episode is another excerpt from one of Swoz's monthly webinars - this time diving into the side of the business that drives profit and productivity: your people. Customer experience drives revenue. Employee experience drives profit. Most leaders know this, but few have a systematic engine for actually building it. Scott and Matt walk through the three gears that separate companies with genuinely engaged teams from those just going through the motions - starting with the foundational question every employee is silently asking: can I trust you? Along the way, Scott makes the case for ditching the annual survey in favor of something far more effective, explains why paying above market rate can actually backfire, and shares why building real community doesn't conflict with holding high standards - it enables them. The closing story might be the most honest thing Scott's shared on this podcast yet: even the perfect leader doesn't get perfect results from his people. And that's actually freeing. ---------- Sign up for our newsletter: https://swozconsulting.com/about/the-newsletter/ Find more info on how we are building legendary brands at: www.SwozConsulting.com Hosted on Ausha.

  Ep 50: The Power of a Scorecard

  Jan 22, 202633 min

  If you want people to put in effort to win, show them the score. But the opposite is also true - don't give people a score to look at, and watch their performance drop. Scott in particular shares many personal and historical examples, from a Chick-Fil-A bowling experiment that had people leaving the bowling lanes early, to Andrew Carnegie's famous way of increasing team performance. Also, it's not just enough for leaders to know the score. Just like a basketball team needs to see the score during the game, the people on your team also need to know, "what's the score of the 'game'?" Scott and Matt also discuss: How often should leaders share the score? Is there ever a point where it's too much? What kind of data should be on your scorecard? Simple, or detailed? How do you connect scoreboard data to your "why," to ensure it's not just arbitrary metrics on a screen? This episode will give you valuable insight into how transformational sharing the score can really be. Tap into that innate drive we have as humans to win, and watch your team performance reach new heights! ---------- P.S.: If you're ready to take your learning to the next level, beyond what we can cover in this podcast, then Legendary Brands Academy was made with you in mind.

  Ep 49: What We Learned Launching Legendary Brands Academy 2.0

  Jan 7, 202621 min

  Scott and Matt discuss relaunching their online program - and the important lessons about Customer Insight and Personalized Service they learned and applied through this process. High-end consulting serves one type of client, but the online program had to be tailored to people in different situations. Same core concepts, but everything from communication style to how they celebrate wins had to change. Listen to a real example of applying the principles they teach to their own business - and how making small adjustments based on who you're actually serving can create massive impact. Similarly, you might find your own business initiatives need different approaches depending on whom you're serving: C-suite executives or frontline teams; established companies or up-and-coming startups. ---------- You can check out Legendary Brands Academy here: www.LegendaryBrandsAcademy.com ---------- Sign up for our newsletter, and find more info on how we are building legendary brands at: www.SwozConsulting.com Hosted on Ausha.
