The Power of Mattering: Why No One Feels Like They Matter Anymore 42:49

לפני 10 weeks42:49

42:49

Forget what you’ve been told about what’s driving division, disengagement, and dysfunction. It’s not woke and DEI. It’s not remote work. It’s not Gen Z or political affiliations. According to Dr. Zach Mercurio, it’s something far more primal: the deep, unmet need to matter . In this gut-punch of an episode, Zach and host Ira S Wolfe rip into why belonging programs fall flat, expose the myth about soft skills, and reveal why making someone feel seen isn’t a nice-to-have—it’s survival. You’ll never look at leadership, work, or human connection the same way again. Perks don't create a vibrant culture. They’re distractions from the fact no one feels like they belong. Ping-pong tables and catered lunches won’t fix your toxic culture. Start with making people feel like they matter. If you give a damn about your people—this is required listening.

Why Change is So Damn Hard: Riding the River of Peanut Butter 13:56

לפני 11 weeks13:56

13:56

Yep! Change often feels like swimming upstream against sticky currents. Even if the status quo is a mess, we cling to it like a life raft. Why? Because the familiar feels like less work for our brain, even when it’s failing us. In this episode, guest co-hosts Eli and Casey unravel the complex web of emotions and instincts that make embracing change feel like swimming through sticky peanut butter. Inspired by future of work thought leader Ira Wolfe's insights, this deep dive is your ticket to understanding the messy, human side of transformation. Here's what you’ll uncover: Our Addiction to Certainty: Our brains are wired to see uncertainty as a threat. Some call this status quo bias. Like survival mode, this triggers a primal response in us. Knowing why change feels unsettling is step one in managing it. Loss Before Gain: Change almost always feels like a loss initially, even if it leads to greater benefits later. It's crucial to acknowledge and address this sense of loss to help people move forward. Culture and Control: The norms and culture of our "tribe" are formidable forces. Ignoring them can lead to resistance. Moreover, people need a sense of control. Ensuring involvement and offering ownership of the change can dramatically reduce pushback. Dive deeper into this episode and let's continue the conversation on how to lead through change effectively and make change work for you.…

Exploring Adaptive Perception Disorder: The Blind Spot Holding Your Business Hostage 12:00

12:00

Step into the whirlwind of change with this episode of Geeks Geezers Googlization: "Adaptive Perception Disorder." Guest co-hosts Eli and Casey take a Deep Dive into the eerily familiar yet subtly dangerous mindset threatening the backbone of businesses today. They delve deep into the intriguing concept of Adaptive Perception Disorder (APD), coined by GGG host and Future of Work Global Thought Leader Ira Wolfe himself. Why is exploring APD important? ADP is endemic in many companies, a mindset that causes them to believe they’re on top of change when they’re actually way behind. It’s calling the hurricane a light breeze. Adaptive Perception Disorder (APD) might not be the buzzword yet, but it certainly highlights a crippling blind spot in many organizations. Here are top three takeaways: Spot the Symptoms: Organizations often suffer from outdated strategy decks and vague positivity about being "on track." It’s crucial to recognize these signs as they could indicate a dangerous disconnect from reality. Understanding APD Subtypes: APD manifests in various forms like Perceptual Change Deficiency and Strategic Narcissism. Identifying these can help in addressing areas where adaptation might be lagging. Build Adaptability Intelligence (AQ): It’s about fostering a culture of constant learning, questioning existing knowledge, and embracing discomfort to truly evolve and stay ahead.…

Welcome to another special episode of The Deep Dive, in which we rip the lid off modern complacency and expose the dangerous mindset creeping into our lives without us even realizing it. It’s called NAIVE Thinking—and no, we’re not talking about innocent optimism.

We live in a world moving at breakneck speed, but far too many are sleepwalking through it, scrolling mindlessly, expecting success without sweat, and surrendering control without knowing it. Join us as we dissect why NAIVE Thinking is the biggest threat to future success and well-being—and what you can do to break free before it’s too late. Challenge your thinking. Reclaim your agency.

So we're a little bit petrified by that." - The Power of Future Memories: “Neuroscience is proving to us that we have between 60 to 70,000 thoughts a day and our brains have calcified into a personality trait and personality type by the time we're 35 years old."

A Deep Dive into Mattering @ Work: #1 Reason Organizational Change Fails 18:34

לפני 32 weeks18:34

18:34

On this episode, I'm taking a deep dive into TWO of my most popular episodes with Zach Mercurio, expert on "mattering" at work. Why? Because it turns out, feeling LIKE you matter is as vital as food and shelter... and its ABSENCE is as harmful as smoking 15 cigarettes DAILY! Think that's dramatic? Zach breaks down how loneliness isn't just sad, it's SABOTAGE: 82% of workers feel lonely at work (that's an EY study, folks). This isn't about solo offices, it's about feeling INVISIBLE, even in a crowd. This feeling CRUSHES engagement, well-being, and sucks the life out of organizational change ... the very things we need for a company to THRIVE, especially during these Never Normal Times. So, what's the antidote? Leaders, you're not just bosses, you must be ARCHITECTS OF MEANING. It's not enough for a job to HAVE purpose, people need to FEEL that purpose IN their daily work. Like Zach says, if all you offer is a paycheck, guess what? That's all you'll GET. This episode is PACKED with shifts that will rewire how you think about work and change. Ask yourself: how do you get people to feel like their contributions to change truly matter? Learn why you must differentiate between the meaning OF work and the meaning IN work. Get ready to have your assumptions challenged and your leadership toolkit UPGRADED. You can listen to the full episodes of Zach Mercurio's interviews here: YouTube: (1) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HzKfyYKlj4k&t=28s (2) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aPEcHL142Z0 Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/geeks-geezers-and-googlization-show/id1115530408 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1tKCFbV7NZDzeQGZMsSQaP…

Deep Dive into Pivot Point: How Companies Can Leverage AI's Upside and Avoid the Skills Shake-Down 18:02

לפני 33 weeks18:02

18:02

The message is clear: The future of work will be defined by rapid technological advancement, requiring individuals and organizations to embrace adaptability as a core competency. Leveraging tools like the AQai model and fostering a supportive and agile work environment will be critical to thriving in the age of acceleration. Join me on this just released 15-minute documentary titled Pivot Point, Navigating Work in the Age of Acceleration. Directed by the acclaimed Nick Nanton, a 22-time Emmy Award Winner, this film provides profound insights from industry leaders on how organizations can navigate and thrive amidst technological advancements and AI integration. You can view the documentary here. https://adaptabilitytoolkit.com/pivot-power/ Key Theme include: Accelerating Pace of Change AI Disruption and Opportunity Adaptability as the Essential Skill The Adaptability Quotient (AQ) Key Insights and Facts: Skills Obsolescence: The half-life of skills is shrinking rapidly, with estimates suggesting that 40-80% of current skills could become irrelevant within the next 5-6 years. Company Longevity: The lifespan of companies is also decreasing. The average life cycle of a typical business model has shrunk to 2-3 years. AI Augmenting Human Capabilities: The focus should be on leveraging AI to enhance human capabilities and empower individuals to perform tasks more efficiently and effectively. Importance of Organizational Support: Companies must foster a culture that embraces experimentation, accepts failure, and provides support for employee development and adaptation. "Mushroom moments" represent the period of hidden development and growth, while "flower moments" signify the time when these advancements come to light and are widely recognized. Adaptability allows individuals and organizations to thrive in both phases, fostering continuous development and ensuring they are prepared for the "flower moment" when it arrives. The 10,000-hour-to-become-an-expert-rule is outdated because the rapid evolution of technology and information renders skills obsolete much faster. Continuous learning and adaptability are more critical than accumulating expertise in a single area over a long period.…
