100th Episode: Healthy Leadership for Thriving Organizations with Justin Irving

This is a very special episode of the Today Counts Show. Today Jim Piper celebrates his milestone 100th podcast! It’s a big commitment to consistently produce a weekly podcast and stick with it long enough to reach 100 episodes. About 44% percent of podcasters never get past 3 episodes and only about 4 % produce a weekly podcast! If you listen to this podcast, know Jim, or have ever met Jim, the fact that he has reached “overachiever” status is no surprise.

Jim welcomes Justin Irving back for this 100th episode of the Today Counts Show to talk about some of the ideas in Justin’s latest book, “Healthy Leadership for Thriving Organizations“. Over 200 executive leaders were surveyed as part of the research for this book. This provided real-world data about the challenges and priorities of today’s leaders.

While many concepts of leadership are evergreen and as applicable now as they were 20 or 30 years ago,  some concepts do require adaptation or modification to be effective in today’s world. For example; Justin shares some thoughts on the differences in the need for affirmation between generations of employees. A seasoned 50-something employee might be fine with a little recognition every 6 months while a 20-something employee who’s new to the workplace might need attention weekly or even daily. These kinds of situations require a leader to be more aware and in touch with his organization.

The theme of self-leadership is a topic that both Jim and Justin keep revisiting in their discussion. While a specific percentage of time a leader should spend in this area might be up for debate, there is no doubt that it is critical for leaders to set aside time to work on themselves.  Mentally, physically, and spiritually. You can’t achieve healthy leadership without it.
