008 | Momentum: Are You Leveraging Your Stance?

Leadership Impact

Welcome to Leadership Impact, the podcast for modern executives who are reinventing leadership within their organizations. Hosted by executive leadership coach and CEO of The Granger Network, Kari Granger, and Sound Financial Group CEO, Paul Adams, this podcast aims to address the topics of performance and leadership through real life examples. This is episode 8, the fourth episode of our four-part series on momentum.

In this episode, Kari and Paul talk all about physicality. A person’s posture, body language, and even stance can have an impact on relationships, performance, and results. Rather than taking the worn path of how your body language is coming off to others, Kari and Paul take a fresh take on physicality by looking at how to leverage your stance to empower yourself.

Kari and Paul both share examples that break down how altering one’s physicality led to elevated performance. First, Paul discusses how his chief of staff’s physicality prevented her from elevating herself to strategic thinking. Then, Kari takes the audience through the time she worked with a colonel turned general officer in the U.S. military to improve his body language. Through simple, yet defined, tweaks and changes, both the chief of staff and the military officer were able to shift their strategic thinking and improve their performance. Finally, Kari shares her own strategy of centering as Paul challenges the audience to practice centering by taking a moment out of each day to get in the right physical and mental state.
