Why not have two episodes with Katie Rasoul?
In a follow up to Katie's full episode, I wanted to create a bonus episode were all we do is get nerdy about her amazing book Hidden Brilliance: A High-Achieving Introvert's Guide to Self-Discovery, Leadership, and Playing Big.
In this bonus episode Katie and I try our best to provide a brief recap of her book. We talk about what it feels like to carry the weight of being a high-achiever. We also talk about imposter syndrome and having an internal Board of Directors. Lastly, we discuss a few tactics for increasing your "Hell Yes!" quota.
As always, thanks for nerding out with us.

During this episode, Emily and Dane nerd out with me about their process improvement approach, called Enable Management Systems.
The Enable Management System is all about helping everyone in the organization to unite around common goals, while engaging in routine dialog about what is working and what is not working. This is a true passion for Emily and Dane. As you listen in, I think you will see why.
Dane DeLozier is passionate about implementing Enable™ - a proven model for execution. Through the course of 25 years' in progressive leadership positions in technology and manufacturing companies, Dane has developed a highly reliable process for executing strategies. This process has been proven by sustainable growth in enterprise value, most recently more than tripling the enterprise value for Piezo Technologies in just four years. The process has also generated substantial returns in revenue and enterprise value in the start-up of three companies, acquisition of three, and sale of four.
Emily Bopp! Emily brings unique insight to Enable, Inc., drawing on over twenty years of entrepreneurial and small business management, leadership and development consulting, humanitarian work, various teaching roles, and a season of full-time motherhood. With a bias for action and an eye for excellence, she is passionate about maintaining clarity and focus in order to help companies achieve targeted outcomes.
Emily has learned a universal truth and seen it manifested in several non-profits, small businesses she's worked for or consulted, large corporations addressing leadership and development issues, and even in her own home with her children, and that is this: accountability does not apply to ideas, but to actions, and ideas can only be made actionable if they have a context and are concrete. Emily finds personal fulfillment in helping businesses eliminate ambiguity in order to execute objectives well.
During this time of uncertainty, Emily and Dane have made an amazing pivot bringing forward a solution they are calling Enable Crisis Management - An expedited path to implementing the Enable Management System. A solution that is meant to help teams stay connected when facing a crisis.
To connect with Emily and Dane please reach out to them online through LinkedIn, their website, or directly by email.

In this episode in #nerdout with a fellow #improvementnerd, Jacqueline Martinez. Be warned, this gets really nerdy, really fast as Jacqueline starts the episode out by talking about the value that HR can create in an organization. As she shares this summary, she talks about the way HR functions as an end-to-end value stream, what she calls "hire to retire".
Jacqueline gets way outside of the traditional silos of HR - which is often a collection of different departments with very different goals.... the recruiting department manages the job website, job posts, and paperwork to hire people. Payroll does what they do. Benefits does their own thing. And collaboration is low. In Jacqueline's mind, all these things need to be seemless, and all working together to achieve one thing - to help people be their best selves.
To follow Jacqueline's journey please follow her on LinkedIn and check out her podcast from Coffee to Wine.
