  #95 How Credit Gets Misassigned on High Performing Teams

  Aug 20, 202618 min

  When Mozart wrote variations on an old French melody, he named the original song in the title rather than himself, and the world credited him anyway. In this episode of the Leader Fuel Podcast, Dr. Linda Travelute uses that story, and the stranger one behind Happy Birthday to You, to explain how credit actually gets assigned on a team and why correcting it later almost never works. This episode will change how you handle recognition on your team: the person who keeps ending up with credit that isn't theirs is usually not the cause of the problem. But we’ll show you what is, where credit actually gets decided, why the window is far shorter than most leaders assume, and five specific things you can do about it inside a normal work week to make sure credit is given to the right people.

  #94 Why Leaders Stall Before They Ever Start

  Aug 13, 202627 min

  In July of 2005, a man in Montreal picked up a red paperclip and decided he wanted a house. Fourteen trades later, he had one. Everybody talks about the house. Almost nobody notices the trade that actually made it possible, and that is the trade you have been avoiding for years without knowing it. In this episode of the Leader Fuel Podcast, Dr. Linda names the pattern she sees in nearly every stalled leader she coaches: not a shortage of ambition, not a shortage of planning, but a refusal to trade the small unimpressive asset already sitting on the desk. She merges the story with John Maxwell’s Law of Trade-Offs, you have to give up to grow up, and shows why the trade-off that stops most leaders is not painful at all. It is undignified. Those are very different problems with very different solutions. You will learn the three tells of this pattern, why the assets that came to you easily are the most valuable ones you own, and a four step inventory-and-offer sequence you can finish before Friday. In this episode The fourteen trade story and the one trade that actually mattered Why rigor is the most convincing disguise avoidance ever wore The three tells: blurry inventory, finish-line comparison, discounting what came easily Maxwell’s Law of Trade-Offs applied to assets you think are too small to count Three diagnostic questions and a four step move for this week #johnmaxwell Dr. Linda Travelute is an Executive Director with John Maxwell Leadership and a certified Coach, Trainer, Keynote Speaker, and Corporate Facilitator who works with business leaders from startup to sustained success.

  #93 Why Leaders Trust Their Gut Over the Data

  Aug 6, 202623 min

  In 1975, a Kodak engineer showed his bosses the future. They dismissed it in one sentence, then spent the next thirty seven years finding out how wrong they were. Dr. Linda breaks down the Ladder of Inference, the mental shortcut behind every gut call you make, and the exact moment trusting your instinct turns into betting your company on an unverified feeling.

  #92 Why Your Best Skill Might Be Your Team's Biggest Risk (Law of Empowerment)

  Jul 30, 202618 min

  You know that thing only you can do? The thing that makes you the hero every single time? It's not your superpower. It's your ceiling. In the late 1700s, a chemist built a working lighter. Real fire, on command. It was so advanced only he could operate it. It flopped. The dumbed-down version that came thirty years later sold 20,000 units in a decade, because anyone could run it. Same fire. Different leader. Dr. Linda uses that story to break down why your most impressive skill might be the exact thing capping your entire team, with Maxwell's Law of Empowerment, the McDonald brothers, and the psychology of why rescuing your people is quietly making them worse.

  #91 The Leadership Compound Effect Nobody Warned You About. It Takes Two Weeks to Make a Jelly Bean

  Jul 23, 202626 min

  A candy company and a U.S. president just taught Dr. Linda the real secret to building leadership that lasts. It has nothing to do with talent, and everything to do with a jar of jelly beans on a cabinet room table. In this episode of the Leader Fuel Podcast, discover why the leaders who actually last aren't the ones waiting for their big moment. They're the ones repeating the small one nobody's watching. Plus: the exact line Ronald Reagan used to judge someone's character in under ten seconds.
