Episode Synopsis

Intro: In this second half, the conversation turns to real-world coaching challenges, building resilience in uncertain times, and making difficult conversations productive. Summary: Mike and Dave tackle why leaders avoid tough conversations, how to reframe them as two-way dialogues, and why consistent investment in people drives performance. They share strategies for bridging the gap between "can't" and "potential" and for creating trust when times are uncertain. Highlights: The three questions to ask before replacing a team member. Why leaders sometimes fail their people before people fail their leaders. Turning limiting beliefs into growth opportunities. How clarity and trust cut through uncertainty. "Care and candid" as a formula for transformation. Key Takeaways: Invest in people before deciding they can't succeed. Resilience grows from clarity, trust, and consistent communication. Avoidance kills relationships faster than conflict—lean into the hard talks. Next Steps: Identify one conversation you've been avoiding. Reframe it as a two-way exchange, prepare open-ended questions, and create space for real dialogue. Connect with Dave Reynolds on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/dave-reynolds-99a71047/
