• Unlocking Your True Direction with Robert Glazer

  Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova.    This week, I’m joined by Robert Glazer. Robert is a #1 Wall Street Journal, USA Today, and international bestselling author, TEDx speaker, and the founder of Acceleration Partners, a $50M global partner marketing agency known for its award-winning culture. He is also the creator of Friday Forward, a weekly inspirational newsletter read by over 200,000 professionals in 60+ countries. And he has a new book out called The Compass Within.   THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…leaders, founders, and professionals who want to align their decisions with their core values and lead with greater clarity and authenticity.   TODAY’S MAIN MESSAGE…in fast-moving and uncertain times, it’s easy to get pulled in different directions. Robert Glazer believes the antidote is grounding yourself in your values. Your "compass within" not only guides your personal and professional choices but also determines how you lead, build trust, and shape culture. By knowing what truly drives you, you’ll make better decisions, connect more deeply with others, and avoid environments that drain your energy.   KEY TAKEAWAYS… Your values act as a blueprint for better decisions at work and in life. Leaders unconsciously lead from their values—knowing them makes you more effective. High-performing teams thrive when individuals share and honor their core values. Self-awareness is the foundation for authentic leadership and sustainable growth.   WHAT I LOVE MOST…Robert’s reminder that many of us only realize our values when they’re crossed—what he calls the “electric fence test.” By identifying them earlier, we can make intentional choices that help us thrive instead of simply reacting when something feels wrong.   Running Time: 24:25   Subscribe on iTunes     Find Tiffani Online: LinkedIn Facebook X    Find Robert Online: LinkedIn Website   Robert’s Book: The Compass Within: A Little Story About the Values That Guide Us   The Six Core Values Questions

• Well-Being as a Leadership Strategy with Mark Crowley

  Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova.    This week, I’m joined by Mark Crowley. Mark is a best-selling author with 25 years in the competitive financial services industry. He rose to national roles, earning Leader of the Year for his emotionally connected, heart-and-mind balanced approach that drove exceptional performance and employee growth. His book, Lead from the Heart, which I love and highly recommend, disrupted conventional management with research proving that traditional methods undermine employee experience. Now taught in 11 universities, it ignited a global movement for humane leadership. In his latest book, The Power of Employee Wellbeing, he advances this vision even further.    THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…leaders, managers, and executives who want to unlock better performance by focusing on employee well-being.    TODAY’S MAIN MESSAGE…too many organizations still approach leadership as a numbers game, chasing productivity with surveys, perks, or technology. Mark Crowley challenges that thinking, showing why true performance stems from how people feel at work. When leaders prioritize well-being—through connection, trust, and emotional awareness—they create teams that are not only more engaged but also more productive.    KEY TAKEAWAYS: Traditional engagement surveys are outdated. Pulse surveys give faster, more actionable insights. Managers must create space for genuine human connection, especially in hybrid or remote teams. Accountability matters, and leaders who ignore feedback are unlikely to receive it again.    WHAT I LOVE MOST…Mark reframes leadership around a simple but overlooked truth: people’s feelings fuel their performance. I love his reminder that when leaders invest in genuine care and connection, they unlock a new depth of commitment and energy.   Running Time: 26:27   Subscribe on iTunes     Find Tiffani Online: LinkedIn Facebook X    Find Mark Online: LinkedIn Website   Mark’s Book:  The Power of Employee Well-Being: Move Beyond Engagement to Build Flourishing Teams

• The Power of Emotionally Intelligent Teams with Vanessa Druskat

  Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova.    This week, I’m joined by Vanessa Druscat. Vanessa is an associate professor at the Peter T. Paul College of Business and Economics at the University of New Hampshire. As an internationally recognized leadership and team performance expert, she advises leaders and teams at over a dozen Fortune 500 and Fortune Global 500 companies. She has a new book out called The Emotionally Intelligent Team.   THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…anybody who wants to unlock stronger collaboration, cohesion, and performance in their organizations by building emotionally intelligent teams.   TODAY’S MAIN MESSAGE…teams don’t thrive just because the right people are in the room. They thrive when leaders create the conditions for connection, trust, and continuous improvement. In this conversation, Vanessa Druskat shares what decades of research reveal about emotionally intelligent teams and discusses how to transform a group of individuals into a high-performing, collaborative team.    KEY TAKEAWAYS… Teams perform better when leaders address core emotional needs like belonging and recognition. High-performing teams take time to really know one another, beyond just titles and roles. Every voice matters and innovation often comes from unexpected perspectives. Leaders don’t need to have all the answers but they do need to ask the right questions and listen.   WHAT I LOVE MOST…Vanessa’s reminder that emotionally intelligent teams aren’t just “nicer” to work in, they’re more effective. Taking time to build connection and belonging is a performance multiplier.   Running Time: 30:57   Subscribe on iTunes     Find Tiffani Online: LinkedIn Facebook X    Find Vanessa Online: LinkedIn Website   Vanessa’s Book: The Emotionally Intelligent Team: Building Collaborative Groups that Outperform the Rest
