216. The Secret Path to Get People into Action

Have you ever faced a situation where somebody in your life– a client, family member, team member– was stuck in non-action? Things weren’t going well and they just weren’t doing what they needed to do to change the situation? In today’s show, we help you understand the psychology of non-action and teach you how to lead people past it. When things aren’t going well, people try to find reasons other than themselves as the cause. It just hurts too much to admit they may be the cause. Plus, they may feel too overwhelmed or unequipped to do something about it. As a leader, it is your job to help them move through this.We dive into details for each of the five steps you need to take. 1) Help them face reality with data and information; 2) Ask open-ended questions to get their buy-in; 3) Show them tactics of how to do it; 4) Give a deadline for a check-in; and 5) Reiterate your belief in them and remind them what’s in it for them.This episode is full of valuable info, plus you get to hear about Tiffany’s time at THE “Hey Dude” dude ranch.Connect on Instagram:Seychelle Van Poole: @seychellevpSarah Reynolds: @sarahreynoldsojiWendy Papasan: @wendypapasanKymber Lovett-Menkiti: @kymbermenkitiTiffany Fykes: @tiffanyfykesProduced by NOVA MediaAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
