This on demand audio is a part of the The Game Changer Network Series. Chicke Fitzgerald interviews BJ Gallagher. The original live interview was 4/28/17. When Dorothy, the Tin Man, the Scarecrow, and the Cowardly Lion approached the great Wizard of Oz they assumed that their leader would wave his magic wand and solve their problems, leaving them off on their merry way. But that’s not how a leader inspires a team, and that’s not how a team finds success in the wonderful land of Oz. Instead, the Wizard guides them on their journey, reminding them of their own unique skills and abilities so they can accomplish their dreams. These unique and easy-to-use tools lay the foundation for great teamwork and inspiring management. You’ll create a more effective workplace using the Wizard’s easy-to-follow leadership principles, inspiring and encouraging both leaders and team members alike. BJ Gallagher is a Sociologist, best-selling author, dynamic workshop leader and charismatic keynote speaker. BJ is the former manager of training and development for the Los Angeles Times, where she was responsible for management development, sales training, customer service seminars, diversity training, specialized programs for women, and the development of high potential managers.

Chicke Fitzgerald interviews Sam Horn. The original live interview was on 3.31.17 What if you played hooky for a day?  What would you do?  Where would you go? After her 20-something son told Sam Horn, “You’ve created a life where you can do anything you want and you’re not taking advantage of it,” she realized he was right and there was no present like the time – and no time like the present – to take her business on the road and combine her work and recreation in a YEAR BY THE WATER. What she experienced along the way disrupted everything she thought she knew about responsibility and the value of  “hard work.”  Many of us are taking responsibility to an extreme by working ourselves to death and taking care of everyone else but our self. The good news is, you don’t have to quit your job, win the lottery, take off on a road trip or walk away from your responsibilities to lead a life you love.  All you have to do is get crystal clear about what matters to YOU and start bringing more of that into your work, career, relationships and life.   Sam is founder, and CEO of the INTRIGUE AGENCY- http://www.intrigueagency.com/ helps people create respectful, collaborative, compelling, one-of-a-kind communications and projects that scale their income and positive influence – for good.

Chicke Fitzgerald interviews Stacey Hanke. The original live interview was 3/17/17. Your team is only as strong as your influence, and many leaders today are mistaken about what it means to be influential. An outdated influence paradigm, along with technological devices and distractions, is making it increasingly challenging for leaders to reach those they need to influence in order to be successful. In fact, many leaders are unwillingly and unknowingly sabotaging themselves and their influence. In her thought-provoking Influence Redefined, Stacey Hanke introduces her powerful Influence Model, a step-by-step method for improving communication and producing the ideal type of influence—one that moves people to action long after an interaction is over. She dispels the most common influence myths and instructs leaders on how to stop sabotaging themselves in order to leave a positive, lasting impression.

She draws on all these attributes in her new book TEXAS TENACITY: A Call For Women To Direct Their Destiny to encourage, motivate, and show women everywhere they should never give up. Women need to create and pursue their own goals and reality – whether at home or the C-Suite, at the seat of political power or in a socio-economically challenged community. Part memoir, part manifesto for inspiring others, Combs shares the details of her life – the good, the bad, and the ugly – from family history and her upbringing to her escape from an abusive marriage, from her first jobs to political powerhouse, from rancher to author of TEXAS TENACITY to founder of Herdacity, an organization where the tagline is “Where Women Dare.” “Let’s make up our collective minds that we aren’t going to sit here and be silent anymore,” Combs says. “We are going to grab our share of the spotlight, because we deserve it and because we are here and present and ready to be counted.”  Her website is www.SusanCombs.com To order the book click HERE 00:30:00GameChangerNetworknoSusan Combs,TEXAS TENACITY: A Call For Women To Direct Their Destiny,Herdacity,@SusanCombs,overcoming adversitySusan Combs-TEXAS TENACITY: A Call For Women To Direct Their Destiny on The Game Changer Series on 2.24.17 http://www.blogtalkradio.com/solutionzlivehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/solutionzlive/2017/02/17/kathy-kolbe-business-is-business-reality-checks-for-family-owned-companiesEntrepreneurhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/solutionzlive/2017/02/17/kathy-kolbe-business-is-business-reality-checks-for-family-owned-companies/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/solutionzlive/2017/02/17/kathy-kolbe-business-is-business-reality-checks-for-family-owned-companiesFri, 17 Feb 2017 17:00:00 GMTKathy Kolbe- BUSINESS IS BUSINESS: Reality Checks for Family-Owned Companies BUSINESS IS BUSINESS: Reality Checks for Family-Owned Companies by Kathy Kolbe This on demand audio is a part of the The Game Changer Network Series. Chicke Fitzgerald interviews Kathy Kolbe. The original live interview was 2/17/17. According to Harvard Business School professor John Davis, family-owned businesses (FOBs) account for approximately 66 percent of all businesses around the world, yet they provide 70 to 90 percent of the global GDP or productive results. They are much more productive than publicly financed corporations and they are also more likely to donate time and talent to philanthropic activities. In their new book, BUSINESS IS BUSINESS: Reality Checks for Family-Owned Companies, award-winning advisors Kathy Kolbe and Amy Bruske provide a common-sense roadmap through the complex terrain of family businesses. Kathy Kolbe is the global leader in discovering and accessing the power of human instincts. She has done the brain research to prove the relevance of her Kolbe Theory of Conation to individual and organizational success. Kolbe was the first person to connect conative behavior to instinctive drives, which she postulated as the source of the patterns of mental energy commonly known as a person’s MO. Amy Bruske is the president of Kolbe Corp and leads seminars for business leaders throughout the world. She was recently named Business Owner of the Year by the Phoenix chapter of the National Association of Women Business Owners (NAWBO).

Chicke Fitzgerald interviews Sydney Finkelstein. The original live interview was 1/27/17. What do football coach Bill Walsh, restauranteur Alice Waters, television executive Lorne Michaels, technol­ogy CEO Larry Ellison, and fashion pioneer Ralph Lauren have in common? On the surface, not much, other than consistent success in their fields. But below the surface, they share a common approach to finding, nurturing, leading, and even letting go of great people. The way they deal with talent makes them not merely success stories, not merely organization builders, but what Sydney Finkelstein calls superbosses. After ten years of research and more than two hundred interviews, Finkelstein—an acclaimed professor at Dartmouth’s Tuck School of Business, speaker, and executive coach and consultant—discovered that superbosses exist in nearly every industry. If you study the top fifty leaders in any field, as many as one-third will have once worked for a superboss.

Jay-The New Advantage: How Women in Leadership Can Create Win-WinsThis on demand audio is a part of the The Game Changer Network Series. Chicke Fitzgerald interviews Joelle K. Jay. The original live interview was 9/9/16. According to a recent study released by the Peterson Institute for International Economics and EY (formerly known as Ernst & Young), women in leadership positions are linked to stronger company profits. THE NEW ADVANTAGE shows business leaders how to take advantage of the full richness of their talent pools to improve their business, develop effective leadership, and become best places to work. Based on interviews with more than a hundred senior executives – both men and women – Morgan and Jay describe ways of breaking through to new levels of leadership. The authors call these breakthroughs the advantages: powerful ways women lead the way toward a better future. In many organizations, women are not advancing. Despite an appreciation for talent and diversity, the representation of women dwindles at each level of leadership, causing a loss of talent, a lack of balance on the leadership team, discouragement among women, attrition, and poor public perception. Howard J. Morgan is a Managing Director of Leadership Research Institute and co-founder of 50 Top Coaches. He specializes in executive coaching as a strategic change management tool leading to improved customer/employee satisfaction and overall corporate performance.

This on demand audio is a part of the The Game Changer Network Series. Chicke Fitzgerald interviews Winnie Brignac Hart and Lorrie Brignac Lee. The original live interview was 8/26/16. In today’s complex business environment, having a superior product or service is not enough to distinguish a company from its competitors, nor can advertising alone command the attention and loyalty of customers. What’s needed is a consistent and genuine message that communicates the company’s core values, beliefs, and purpose – in short, a brand. As identical twin sisters, the authors have developed a heightened awareness of the importance of perception and reality. From their first-hand experience of dealing with misperceptions and working hard to refine their individual identities, they’ve honed the ability to perceive differences in other people, companies, and brands. In STAND OUT, Hart and Lee have distilled this ability to help companies see themselves more objectively into a set of tools and exercises, such as the Brand Traffic Control Radar Tool, the Brand Traffic Control Assessment, the Brand Positioning Assessment, and the One-Page Marketing Plan. Ultimately, a company’s product or service becomes an obvious choice as an extension of its story. The key is authenticity – aligning what an organization communicates about its products or services with what it truly is.

Chicke Fitzgerald interviews Howard Love. The original live interview was 8/19/16. A start-up unfolds in a predictable pattern; the more aware entrepreneurs are of this pattern, the better able they will be to capitalize on it. Author Howard Love calls this pattern the start-up J Curve: The toughest part of the endeavor is the time between the actual start of a new business and when the product and model are firmly established. The Start-Up J Curve gives entrepreneurs the tools they need to get through the early challenges so they can reach the primary value creation that lies beyond. The book outlines the six predictable stages of start-up growth and details the activities that should be undertaken at each stage to ensure success and to avoid common pitfalls. Instead of feeling lost and confused after a setback, start-up founders and investors can anticipate the challenges, overcome the obstacles, and ride the curve to the top. Entrepreneurs who have read early drafts of The Start-Up J Curve responded, ''I wish I had this book years ago.'' Howard is an Entrepreneur, Author, and Angel Investor.

Performance Breakthrough shows how you can use ideas and techniques from theater and improvisation, along with the new science of performative psychology, to enhance your performance at work and “become who you are not yet.” In addition to being the CEO and co-founder of Performance of a Lifetime,  Cathy Salit is an accomplished social entrepreneur, actress, director, improvisational comic and singer.

Chicke Fitzgerald interviews David Livermore. The original live interview was 6/03/16. Today’s workforce is more diverse than ever before. But despite new perspectives and talents, the promise of increased innovation rarely materializes. Why are so few businesses seeing results? Studies show that diverse teams are more creative than homogenous ones–but only when they are managed effectively. The secret is to minimize conflict while maximizing the informational diversity found in varied values and experiences. To do this, both leaders and team members need a high level of cultural intelligence, or CQ. Driven by Difference identifies the management practices necessary to guide multicultural teams to innovation. David Livermore, Ph.D., is President and Partner at the Cultural Intelligence Center, a consultancy at the forefront of CQ assessment and development. The author of Leading with Cultural Intelligence, he has been cited by The Economist, Forbes, The New York Times, and The Wall Street Journal.

The cockpit of an F-14 is one of the most demanding environments imaginable. The flight deck of an aircraft carrier is one of the most complex industrial work-sites there is. It’s here that Carey Lohrenz learned what fearless leadership means. Her teams had to perform at their peak, or lives were on the line. Added to that intensity, she was breaking new ground for women in the military. Since leaving the Navy, Lohrenz has worked with thousands of business leaders, from Fortune 500 executives to middle managers, helping them and their teams flourish. She’s distilled her extraordinary career down to this hypothesis: high-performing teams require fearless leaders, which has been proven again and again. In "Fearless Leadership: High Performance Lessons From the Flight Deck," she walks readers through the three fundamentals a leader must possess to exhibit real fearlessness: courage, tenacity, and integrity. Lohrenz then reveals what fearless leadership looks like in action, offering advice on how to set a bold vision, bring the team together (as wing-men, not Top Gun mavericks), execute effectively, and stay resilient through hard times. Whether they’re stepping into their first leadership role or looking to get out of a longstanding rut, readers will find this resource to act like an afterburner, rocketing them to ever-higher levels of performance.

Wright- SOULinks: Pursuing Multi-Generational SignificanceThis on demand audio is a part of the Game Changer Series. Chicke Fitzgerald interviews Joan O. Wright. The original live interview was 5/6/16. At its core, life is all about relationships. We all know the benefits of close and loving relationships between grandparents and their young grandchildren. What we often overlook, however, is the incredible richness and significance of these relationships for adult grandchildren and grandparents. And further, these relationships are not, and should not, be limited to those with only biological ties. These mentoring relationships can function just as well outside typical family boundaries. This book brings together stories about real-life connections that will move you. These stories are followed by some simple ways and tools to help kick-start these relationships. It is the author's hope that this book will inspire and encourage people of all generations to pursue these kinds of relationships, termed "SOULinks." Prior to founding O’Sullivan Wright in 2000, Joan was head of executive leadership development at Wachovia (Wells Fargo). Her broad understanding of individual leadership and organizational development comes from 21 years in Human Resources Management roles with Philip Morris, Citicorp, and GE Capital.

Chicke Fitzgerald interviews Barbara Cave Henricks. The original live interview was 4/1/16. The giant brands that once dominated the media landscape—Oprah, the New York Times, NPR, CNN—have seen their monopoly on public attention smashed by the Internet and now find themselves competing with individuals and brands in a sea of micromedia: websites, social media, blogs, podcasts, and more. Ace publicists and marketers Barbara Cave Henricks and Rusty Shelton show that to navigate through this modern terrain, you need to think more like a media executive than a marketer.  The key lies in mastering three crucial categories of media—earned, owned, and rented—and knowing how to integrate each for maximum success. By using this proven strategy, you can create a positive feedback loop that will generate massive momentum and grow a large, loyal audience for your message.

A world changer who helped pave the way for women today, she believes this is women’s moment to achieve parity. Her passion is to remove the last remaining obstacle: women’s learned resistance to embracing their own power. It’s why women are stuck at 18% of top leadership positions and why the loss of high-performing female employees keeps organizations from optimal success. Once women “stand in their power and walk with intention,” they can lead unlimited lives and reach parity from the boardroom to the bedroom for good — their own, and society’s as well.

As you make giving a lifestyle, you’ll realize you’re not only loving life more, you’re also creating a more generous world— a better world for all of us. I Like Giving is about experiencing the joy of giving. We all have something to give. Giving goes way beyond money or things. It can be a listening ear, a touch, or simply the gift of time.  Giving is living. Brad's story began at a young age, inspired by his grandfather to open his eyes and see the needs of the people around him.

Chicke Fitzgerald interviews Jessica Bacal. The original live interview was 11/13/15. Today’s women are being told to “lean in,” to assert themselves, to ask for more, and to analyze their work/life balance. But despite all of this dialogue, there’s something that is not being addressed: advice on how to recover when you’ve stumbled. Everyone makes mistakes, but for many women, acknowledging them can feel tantamount to career suicide. In Mistakes I Made at Work, I interview twenty-five high-achieving and influential women across a variety of fields—from writers to doctors to engineers.  They share their worst on-the-job moments, and how they used them as learning experiences to build successful and fascinating careers. Jessica directs the Wurtele Center for Work & Life at Smith College, an independent women’s college in Massachusetts with students from every state and from 60 countries around the world.

Chicke Fitzgerald interviews Tania Luna. The original live interview was 10/23/15. Do you prefer when: A) Things go according to plan? or B) When the unexpected happens? Most of us pick control and predictability. Yet research reveals a counterintuitive truth: surprise is the key that unlocks growth, innovation, and connection. It is also the secret ingredient in our best memories. Through colorful narratives and compelling scientific findings, authors Tania Luna and Dr. LeeAnn Renninger shine a light on the world's least understood and most intriguing emotion. They reveal how shifting our perception of surprise lets us thrive in the face of uncertainty.  As a young child, Tania Luna left her home in post-Chernobyl Ukraine to take asylum in the US. Tania Luna has an unusual title: she calls herself a “surprisologist.” The co-founder and CEO of Surprise Industries, Luna thinks deeply about how to delight, and how to help individuals and teams thrive in uncertain circumstances and develop the bonds needed to get through them.

Parenting Adult ChildrenEmpty Nest: What's Next?: Parenting Adult Children Without Losing Your Mind By Michele Howe This on demand audio series is a part of the Executive Girlfriends Group Vignette Series. Chicke Fitzgerald interviews Michele Howe. The original live interview was 9/18/15. Unlike the first eighteen years of parenting, moms and dads now take on more of an advisory role and step out of the daily hands-on instructional role. In theory, this stepping to the sidelines parenting style should lead to a simpler, less stress-free life for the parents. However, real-life parenting young adults is often much more challenging than all the earlier years put together. Combine young adult immaturity with a dangerous world, and parents frequently find themselves beset with worry, fear, and anxiety. Intellectually letting go is one thing; emotionally letting go is much more difficult, especially when the consequences are adult sized. This resource will offer parents true stories of other moms and dads who are facing the very same challenges. Michele Howe is a reviewer for Publishers Weekly, FaithfulReader.com, Retailers + Resources, Foreword Magazine, TeenReads.com, KidReads.com, among many others national and international publications.

Chicke Fitzgerald interviews Steven Overman. The original live interview was 7/31/15. A generation of people around the world, from Boston to Bangkok, from New York to New Delhi, are making everyday choices in ways that defy traditional logic. They are judging where and how their clothes were made, not just how they fit. They are thinking global but buying local. Steven Overman provides context, inspiration and some basic tools to help readers reframe how they evolve and grow whatever it is they lead—whether it’s a community, a business, a product, or a marketing campaign. From the boardroom to the startup loft, from the State Department to the pulsing marketplaces of the developing world, The Conscience Economy will help international leaders, influencers, investors and decision-makers to manage, innovate and thrive in a new world where “doing good” matters as much as “doing well.” Ignore it, and your consumer or voter base will rebel, using a host of free tools and cheap connectivity to spread their rejection to peers around the world in real time. Leverage it, and Conscience Culture is a wellspring of financial upside.

In her book, philanthropist Carrie Morgridge argues that high-impact philanthropy is not always high-dollar, and she teaches people how to make a difference in the world with small, targeted gifts of time or money.  Drawing on her own experience of what works and what doesn’t when it comes to philanthropy, Morgridge illuminates how leverage, high expectations, hands-on personal involvement, and, above all else, passion, will ensure that one’s gift will have the biggest impact possible – and also bring the giver a profound sense of joy and fulfillment.

Chicke Fitzgerald interviews Bonnie Marcus. The original live interview was 7/03/15. Working industriously, diligently, and with heads down has served women well. They now hold 57 percent of all bachelor’s degrees and 51 percent of all doctorates, and earn 47 percent of law degrees and 45 percent of all master’s degrees in business. Yet, with optimism and ambition, women enter the workforce and are blindsided: only 5.2 percent of Fortune 500 CEO positions and 5.4 percent of Fortune 1,000 CEO positions are held by women. The problem? A naïve negligence of workplace politics, argues Bonnie Marcus, award-winning entrepreneur and founder and president of Women’s Success Coaching. In her new book, Marcus details common, research-backed land mines women encounter in the workplace – from unconscious and second-generation bias to a lack of self-confidence and a distaste for self-promotion – and provides proven tools for women to arm themselves for success. Bonnie received a BA from Connecticut College and a M.Ed. from New York University. She is an ICF certified executive coach.

Women comprise 51 percent of the world’s population, make up over half the workforce, and control 85 percent of consumer decisions. Never before have women been so degreed or so represented as decision makers in all areas of influence. Why, then, do we still feel as if success eludes us? Why do we sometimes struggle to keep our drive alive? The linear, heads-down, forward-at-all-cost approach to success that has been forged by men will never take us to the heart of fulfillment. Women are not designed for the straight and narrow path. But until now there hasn’t been another choice.

A marriage in trouble, jeopardized health, and financial pressures culminated on vacation when his family asked: “Dad, are you really happy?” Realizing he was in peril of losing everything he held dear, Robbie courageously followed the advice he had given clients for decades: Follow your heart. Choose to be happy. And consciously make everything better than you found it. The result: Vorhaus closed his agency, moved his family to their small Sag Harbor home, started a leadership and crisis consultancy, and began anew. Now transformed, healthy, happy, and celebrating a marriage of more than 25 years, Robbie drew on his life’s work and experience to write a column for his local newspaper, The Sag Harbor Express, outlining a step-by-step plan for following your heart and being happy, which, after going viral, became the basis for his next seven years writing, One Less. One More. – Follow Your Heart. Be Happy. Change Slowly.

Chicke Fitzgerald interviews Linda Hill. The original live interview was 4/10/15. At the heart of innovation is a paradox: you have to unleash the talents and passions of many people, yet you have to harness them into a work that is actually useful. Management professor Linda Hill offers three keys to overcoming this paradox and building a truly innovative organization. If you want a more innovative organization, you may need to change the way you lead. Great leaders of innovation don’t fit the conventional mold of “good” leadership. They’re not visionaries who set direction and inspire others to follow. Instead, they create the context in which others are both willing and able to innovate. As one leader said, “My job is to set the stage, not to perform on it.” This is the key insight gleaned by the authors of Collective Genius who, led by Harvard leadership scholar Linda Hill, spent a decade studying leaders of innovative firms in the US, Europe, India, and Asia, including such companies as Pixar, Google, Volkswagen, HCL Technologies, IBM, and the Sungjoo Group.

Chicke Fitzgerald interviews Robert Sher. The original live interview was 2/6/15. Because business consultants focus on big companies that can afford big consulting fees, and because the problems of the Fortune 500 are very different than those of midsized businesses, there have been very few books that provide relevant growth advice for midsized company leaders, or can point out where the growth-killing potholes hide. But not anymore. Robert Sher focuses exclusively on midsized companies. His new book Mighty Midsized Companies: How Leaders Overcome 7 Silent Growth Killers gives readers the inside story on many highly-successful midsized companies and describes the critical factors that have powered their success. Forbes.com columnist, author and CEO coach Robert Sher delivers keynotes and workshops, including combining content with facilitation of peer discussions on business topics.  Robert Sher is founding principal of CEO to CEO, a consulting firm of former chief executives that improves the leadership infrastructure of midsized companies seeking to accelerate their performance.

Top leadership coach Marcia Reynolds says the problem is that when incorrectly handled, difficult conversations create more resistance than growth. Reynolds offers a model and methods for discovering what to say so people change their own minds. As a result, leaders equip people to find their own solutions, see situations more strategically, and grow beyond their limitations. Reynolds explains how to pick the right time and place to enter the discomfort zone and how to create a “safety bubble” so that people will trust your intentions. Marcia Reynolds, PsyD, organizational psychologist and certified master coach, is president of Covisioning, a training and coaching firm helping companies worldwide unleash the brilliance in their people. Her clients include American Express, GlaxoSmithKlein, Ernst & Young, and many others around the world. She is a past president of the International Coach Federation.  In her spare time, Marcia accumulates degrees.

Chicke Fitzgerald interviews Holly Green. The original live interview was 9/19/14. The human brain is an amazing tool. Yet, many of its ways of working do not serve business leaders well. The brain can process large amounts of information. It has a real talent for forming patterns and connections. And it loves to answer questions and solve problems. But it also has a tendency to see what it expects to see, overlook data that contradicts its prevailing view of the world, and have greater confidence in its decision-making abilities than it should. In order to become more effective leaders, we need a much deeper understanding of how our brain works and how it often gets in the way of winning. As CEO and Managing Director of THE HUMAN FACTOR, Inc., Holly helps business leaders and their companies achieve excellence by creating clarity on what winning looks like and determining how to get there.  Her unique approach to strategic agility, alignment and engagement - based on the approach Pause, Think, Focus, Run - provides the tools, techniques, and skills companies need to reach their destinations and achieve their goals.

Dull, unchallenging and stagnant. That is, until she decided she was through being stuck and ready to dream big. Catherine’s metaphoric dishwashing days were over. She went on the Doctors Without Borders website and, to her great surprise, found a job that fit her skills. It hadn’t even occurred to Catherine that there would be “normal jobs” like finance, operations and human resources within Doctors Without Borders. But just a few weeks later, she was hired as an HR finance coordinator and was off to Kenya to support the organization’s mission of international medical and humanitarian aid. Amid the Parisian upheavals of May 1968, a group of young doctors decided to go and help victims of wars and major disasters. This new brand of humanitarianism would reinvent the concept of emergency aid. "It’s simple really: go where the patients are. It seems obvious, but at the time it was a revolutionary concept because borders got in the way. It’s no coincidence that we called it ‘Médecins Sans Frontières’."

Chicke Fitzgerald interviews Christine Bader. The original live interview was 05/09/14. There is an invisible army of people deep inside the world’s biggest and best-known companies, pushing for safer and more responsible practices. They are trying to prevent the next Rana Plaza factory collapse, the next Deepwater Horizon explosion, the next Foxconn labor abuses. Obviously, they don’t always succeed. Christine Bader was one of those people. She loved BP and then-CEO John Browne’s lofty rhetoric on climate change and human rights. Bader’s story of working deep inside the belly of the beast is unique in its details, but not in its themes: of feeling like an outsider both inside the company (accused of being a closet activist) and out (assumed to be a corporate shill); of getting mixed messages from senior management; of being frustrated with corporate life but committed to pushing for change from within.

Her book debunks over a dozen myths about presentations to make them more fun and natural for everybody.

Chicke Fitzgerald interviews Jan Yager. The original live interview was 6/21/13. This is the e-book version of the 2nd edition of FRIENDSHIFTS: THE POWER OF FRIENDSHIP AND HOW IT SHAPES OUR LIVES by sociologist, friendship expert, and coach Jan Yager, Ph.D. The book is based on the author’s doctoral thesis and additional original research consisting of surveys and interviews. "Friendshifts" is a word  Dr. Yager coined to denote how sometimes  our friendships  may shift throughout our lives, and even how we define a friend. Fortunately, in some instances, lifelong friendship does happen. FRIENDSHIFTS explores what you can do to help a friendship to last. Even with the most enduring friendships, there may be an ending because of death. The examples, anecdotes, quotes, and studies cited throughout the book reinforce the notion that the right friends will help you to get ahead or to be happy in life, and even to live a longer life; the wrong friends can sabotage you or even get you hurt or killed. Dr. Jan Yager, who has a Ph.D. in sociology, is author of more than twenty-five highly-acclaimed and award-winning books.

Chicke Fitzgerald interviews Porter Gale. The original live interview was 6/14/13. Networking doesn’t have to be that frenzied old-school game of calendars packed with stuffy power lunches and sterile evenings at community business gatherings. We’ve entered a new era, one in which shifting cultural values and the explosion of digital technology enable us to network in vastly more efficient, more focused, and more enjoyable ways. Your Network Is Your Net Worth is both a primer and a storybook, an entertaining, straightforward guide filled with revealing case studies, hands-on advice, and innovative strategies for building your network. Gale shares the inspiring stories of so many others who live by this networking model: a military wife who connects with social media communities while her husband is deployed overseas, a young woman blogger battling leukemia, a dyslexic politician who wins elections by telling stories, and the CEO of a Major League Baseball team who once made a phone call that changed the course of his life. Porter Gale is an internationally known public speaker, networker, and entrepreneur with more than twenty years of experience working in marketing, advertising, and independent filmmaking.

She spent years working in the corporate world, but after her first poem was shared on a syndicated radio program in 1994, an alternative career began to emerge and she soon came to the realization that her true passion was in creative writing. She wanted to write something deeper and even more meaningful about the concept of The Dash.  So she wrote a new poem, a sequel to the original. This new inspiration has now blossomed into a 256-page hardcover book filled with original prose, poems and inspirational stories. Thirty-six lines that have touched millions, Titled simply — The Dash — these 36 lines have touched millions of lives and have literally taken on a life of their own by traveling all over the world.

In the book, co-author Julie Johnson and Sally draw on multiple strands of research to identify the elements that comprise women’s ways of seeing. * Women’s capacity for broad spectrum and radar-like notice * Women’s tendency to analyze information in a broader social context * Women’s emphasis on intrinsic satisfaction rather than abstract measures of achievement The book sets forth specific ways in which women can draw on their vision to tap their strategic leadership power. The Female Vision is an unprecedented work of research, but it’s also an actionable handbook for women seeking to realize their greatest strengths and for organizations wanting to benefit from what women have to contribute.

Chicke Fitzgerald interviews Rose Fass. The original live interview was 4/12/13. The single factor that determines success or failure in big business today is conversation. Great leaders use public and private conversations to cultivate a common worldview, set standards, and uncover concerns that can undermine the goals of the organization. So what conversations are you, as a leader, having with your organization? Experienced business transformation consultant Rose Fass shows how leaders can avoid a meltdown and instead drive transformation by the way they communicate in a language that all stakeholders can understand. The Chocolate Conversation takes a light-hearted approach to show how too often we think we're having the same conversation about "dark chocolate," for instance — only to be referring to three different things: milk, white, and bittersweet varieties. Fass helps us establish common ground that leads to an effective discourse for addressing relevance, growth, and productivity.

Chicke Fitzgerald interviews Kathy Sidell. The original live interview was 12/21/12. Kathy Sidell's earliest memories take her back to food. At age 5 she was taken with her grandmother's artistry in the kitchen, and even more so by the big, family meals shared on the front porch of their seaside home. Though raised among foodies– her mother, a talented home entertainer, her banker father who single-handedly is credited for building the restaurant business in Boston; and a sister, now a chef and restaurateur–Kathy s route to food was not as linear. Her early life as a film producer developed her love for story, themes, and setting. But by age 47, she found herself drawn back to food and the risk of restaurant life. When I Met Food chronicles this adventure, from how she selected her first location to the careful branding decisions required to build a highly successful restaurant enterprise in metropolitan Boston. In this engaging book, Kathy shares her business savvy peppered with encounters with influential people and even favorite recipes for the aspiring chef.

Chicke Fitzgerald interviews Sondra Shaw Hardy & Martha Taylor. The original live interview was 12/14/12. It surely began with Adam and Eve: two distinct genders behaving in very different ways.  Two separate ways of giving.  Women have always given of course, but today they are giving their money as well as their time. Why?  Because not only are women throwing off the old stereotypes of women and philanthropy, they are taking control of their finances—their lives–and acting independently.  Women in the media have championed these changes. The outcomes of the women’s philanthropy movement are enormous.  Research will continue to institutionalize the movement.  The ways women give will become the norm for all philanthropy.  Best of all, women will see to it that their gifts will make the world a better place. Sondra Shaw-Hardy, J.D., was described by Town and Country magazine as “the pioneer” in women’s philanthropy. As a vice president of the University of Wisconsin Foundation, Martha A. Taylor has been a key player in the growth of one of the most successful institutionally related foundations.

Chafe. The original live interview was 11/18/12. From the day they first met at Yale Law School, Bill and Hillary were inseparable and combative. As historian William H. Chafe reveals in Bill and Hillary: The Politics of the Personal that dynamic has remained a constant throughout their remarkable political careers.  Always tempestuous, their relationship had as many lows as it did highs, from near divorce to stunning electoral and political successes. “An illuminating glimpse behind the scenes”—Kirkus Reviews. Chafe is the author of numerous prizewinning books on civil rights, women’s history, and politics, including The Unfinished Journey: America Since World War II and Private Lives / Public Consequences.   Much of Bill Chafe’s professional scholarship reflects his long-term interest in issues of race and gender equality. Former dean of the faculty of arts and sciences at Duke University, he is the Alice Mary Baldwin Professor of History and a cofounder of the Duke-UNC Center for Research on Women, the Duke Center for the Study of Civil Rights and Race Relations, and the Duke Center for Documentary Studies. A past president of OAH, he is the author of several books, including Civilities and Civil Rights (1979), which won the Robert F. Kennedy Book Award.
