James Lehman, Award-Winning Author, Speaker, Workshop Leader, and a Life & Career Transition Coach, changes it up a bit and we discuss his book and what he’s focused on right now. It’s a slight diversion from the main topic of Inspired and Intentional business. However, it is about self management of your career which does align with employee accountability and engagement in their own career.
This 4th and first Thursday episode James will cover:

Questions for this episode:
As a leader, how could you take the topics about career management and help your team take more command of their careers? Would this help your company?
If you’re undergoing a career transition, what could you do to take control over your career so you can find a place of meaning and purpose?
Perhaps coaching could help. With that in mind, James offered up an opportunity for one listener to take a free Energy Leadership assessment with an evaluation with James after he receives the results. I will accept entries during the next two weeks, from February 23rd to midnight March 5th. Go to inspiredandintentional.com/energy to register for the drawing.
Thank you so much for listening/reading and until next time, be inspired and intentional.
James K. Lehman is an Award-Winning Author, Speaker, Workshop Leader, and a Life & Career Transition Coach. After starting his career as a CPA, he transitioned into consulting, and then HR, focusing on HR Transformation.
James is the author of "Maneuvering Your Career - 20 Strategies to Prepare You for Voluntary (or Involuntary) Career Transition." He is a SPHR, a Certified Professional Coach, and Energy Leadership Index Master Practitioner. He also serves on the International Association for Human Resource Information Management (IHRIM) Board of Directors .
Podcast worldview:
Gallup says 70% of US employees are disengaged from their work. This causes, what Ari Weinzweig calls an energy crisis in the workplace. Lost innovation, productivity and profits. Not to mention the tolls on the communities.
There are companies and organizations working to improve this. they are creating more open and collaborative work environments. They are realizing that treating people with dignity and providing meaningful work can be done while also running a financially solid organization.
My hope with this podcast is to inspire leaders, entrepreneurs, and those coming into leadership through transition, to make intentional choices to balance profit and social impact.

I’ve been asking for reviews of the podcast. While this is still important, my new call to action for listeners and readers is subscribe to the podcast in iTunes or Stitcher. A couple weeks ago I mentioned that I would have a drawing when I reached 100 subscribers. This isn’t an easy number to get at this point. Instead, my critical number will be when my episodes average 200 downloads. Right now, they’re at 51. When they hit an average of 200, I’ll have a drawing for a book on this topic.

This week James will cover:
The 7 levels of Energy. PDF illustrating the 7 Levels of Energy Chart
Energy blocks in our life as defined by something called GAIL.
[powerpress]
Questions for this episode:
He talks about mindfulness and consciousness and the 7 levels of energy (see below) where do you fall most of the time? If lower, what can you do right now to shift one level higher? The levels are:
apathy
conflict
responsibility - action cooperate and forgiveness
concern for others - action compassion and service
reconciliation
joy and wisdom - not about winning or losing but being in the present and finding joy
no judgement
We have areas in our life that limit our energy, he uses an acronym of GAIL. Which one of these blocks your energy most of the time? Are they true? Who can you turn to that will speak truth into your life?
Gremlins - Buttons that those around us put into us.
Assumptions - Because things have gone a certain way in the past, they may repeat.
Interpretation - An opinion or judgement that you believe to be true.
Limiting beliefs - the beliefs you carry through life hold you back.
I’ve been asking for reviews of the podcast. While this is still important, my new call to action for listeners and readers is to subscribe to the podcast in iTunes or Stitcher. Last week I mentioned that I would have a drawing when I reached 100 subscribers. This isn’t an easy number to get at this point. Right now, downloads will be my key measure. I'm currently sitting at 51 per episode. When they hit an average of 200, I’ll have a drawing for a book on this topic.

We conclude our conversation with Anne-Claire Broughton. She is Principal of Broughton Consulting, LLC, Durham, NC. Her many publications include the Business Action Guide Series of innovative employee engagement practices (with The Hitachi Foundation). Anne-Claire is active with efforts to educate retiring business owners and their advisors about the possibility of employee ownership as an exit strategy. She also shares innovative employee engagement practices to help business owners thrive. In addition, she is President of EarthShare North Carolina’s Board of Directors, an active amateur musician, and parent of a teenager.
Some of the insights we’ll hear:
Questions
Anne-Claire shares several practices of leaders who are running business differently:
Careful hiring
Extensive (intentional) training
Setting up career ladders/paths and promoting from within
Clearly communicating core values and using them as a guide to action
Smart incentive systems that align to the interests of the organization and the employees
Transparency and Open-Book management
Which one of these could you consider to begin using to move your organization forward?
Are you ready to consider your employees as a fixed cost vs a variable cost? If not what parts of this principle could you consider for your business?
How could you begin training your team on your culture?
What books will you assign to your team to read to begin the move forward?
Where’s your heart on this issue?
I would love to see your answers to these questions. You can leave them in the comments on this episodes page at inspiredandintentional.com/episode17, on Twitter @toddareed, LinkedIn @ToddAReed, or on Facebook, search for the Inspired and Intentional page.

Gallup reports 70% of employees are disengaged from their work. This leads to high and expensive turnover, poor productivity, and what Ari Weinzweig calls an energy crisis in the workplace. There are companies and organizations out there bucking this trend. By talking with these inspiring leaders, the goal of the Inspired and Intentional podcast is to help you know that you’re not alone. There are others that, not only, want to run a financially solid organization, but also one that intentionally inspires those on their team and in their community to significance and purpose.
