  • Trust Starts With You: How to Heal and Rebuild Trust After a Breach with Drs. Dennis and Michelle Reina

    Trust Starts With You: How to Heal and Rebuild Trust After a Breach with Drs. Dennis and Michelle Reina
    2026/10/27
    How do you rebuild trust once it has been broken? And what if the first person whose trust you need to repair is you?Drs. Dennis and Michelle Reina are internationally recognized pioneers in organizational trust and co-founders of Reina Trust Building. They have spent more than three decades helping people restore connection and confidence in the workplace. Their work combines research with practical tools to help teams recover, especially after trust has been broken.In this episode of Productivity Smarts, Gerald J. Leonard sits down with Dennis and Michelle to talk about their seven steps for healing after a breach. They explain why the first step is to name and acknowledge what happened, and why we often feel a breach in the body before we understand it in the mind. Journaling, reaching out for support, and giving yourself room to feel are what move you from hurt toward action.The conversation also looks at how trust begins with the relationship we have with ourselves. Dennis and Michelle share their research finding that more than 90 percent of trust-breaking behavior is unintentional, and that small lapses add up over time. They talk about reframing the experience, taking responsibility, and forgiving yourself and others. They also explain what it means to let go and move on while keeping the lessons.They finish with the daily habits that build trust, including journaling and yoga, and the three dimensions of trust: character, communication, and capability.If you want to heal after a breakdown in trust, strengthen your working relationships, or build more trust in yourself, this conversation gives you clear steps you can start using right away.What We Discuss[00:05] Introducing Drs.

  • The Maestro Mindset: How Orchestras Build the World's Best Teams

    The Maestro Mindset: How Orchestras Build the World's Best Teams
    2026/10/20
    Can a symphony orchestra show us how to lead a team? Why do some groups perform brilliantly with one person in front of them and poorly with another?In this episode of Productivity Smarts, Gerald J. Leonard sits down with Charles Grimes, a business psychologist, leadership consultant, lifelong choral singer, and author of A Question of Leadership, to explore what 30 years of working with leaders and performing alongside professional orchestras have taught him about high-performing teams.Charles shares the story of a disengaged choir that transformed in minutes when a conductor arrived, convinced the piece was worth doing. Together, they connect it to roving leadership, where leadership passes between people depending on who has the ball, as in a jazz quartet or a rugby match. Charles explains why listening is the core skill of great teams, why leadership is a relationship built one person at a time, and why musicians welcome feedback that most workplaces avoid.They also cover preparation without perfectionism, balancing confidence with humility, and why practice matters more than performance. Charles closes with three questions every leader should ask: What is really going on? Who am I becoming? How do I help my people thrive?If you want to listen better, lead in a way that lifts your team, and make practice a habit, this conversation offers a fresh perspective from the world of music.What We Discuss[02:01] Introducing Charles Grimes and A Question of Leadership[02:59] Bach, joy, and writing a cantata every week[06:19] How singing and business psychology came together[10:03] The conductor who transformed a disengaged choir[14:16] Why struggling sports teams replace the coach[16:46] Jazz and roving leadership: how the lead moves around the band[19:10] Headship versus leadership[19:52] What orchestras understand about high-performing teams[20:13] Listening vertically and horizontally[27:07] Leadership is a relationship, not a list of tips[28:57] Feedback: why musicians accept it and workplaces avoid it[32:56] Preparation without perfectionism[34:31] Moving between confidence and humility[37:30] Why practice and rehearsal matter more than performance[38:41] Who are you becoming as a leader?[40:40] What a conductor is really for[44:17] “It’s who he was”: leadership beyond title and role[45:56] How to connect with Charles Notable Quotes[21:02] “I believe that they are the orchestras, professional orchestras, that the the highest performing teams that you get anywhere because it is quite extraordinary" - Charles Grimes[19:10] “They have the headship.

  • Leadership Isn't a Title: How Roving Leadership Unlocks Your Team's Potential with Sal Tagliareni

    Leadership Isn't a Title: How Roving Leadership Unlocks Your Team's Potential with Sal Tagliareni
    2026/10/13
    What makes someone a leader? Is it their title, their authority, or their ability to help others succeed? And what changes when leadership becomes something everyone on a team can practice?Sal Tagliareni, author of A Roving Leadership, explores a different approach to leadership shaped by his mentorship and coaching with Viktor Frankl. Rather than placing all responsibility on one person, roving leadership allows leadership to move between team members depending on the situation, the skills required, and the needs of the moment.In this episode of Productivity Smarts, Gerald J. Leonard sits down with Sal to discuss how organizations can create environments where people feel valued, confident, and willing to take initiative. Sal explains why recognizing your own worth and appreciating the contributions of others are essential to building stronger teams. When people feel psychologically safe, they are more comfortable sharing ideas, asking questions, and stepping into leadership when needed.The conversation also examines the importance of clear expectations and rules of engagement. Trust and teamwork do not happen automatically. They grow when people understand their responsibilities and communicate honestly. Sal also explores visualization, explaining how it can help people prepare for challenges and approach their goals with greater confidence.Beyond motivation, Sal highlights the role of habits, systems, and consistent action in achieving meaningful progress. Drawing on Viktor Frankl's influence, he reflects on personal responsibility, purpose, and the human value behind every role.If you want to strengthen teamwork, encourage shared leadership, and create a workplace where people can contribute their best, this conversation offers a fresh perspective on how leadership can work in practice.What We Discuss[02:02] Introducing Sal Tagliareni and the idea of roving leadership[05:30] Why so many people feel disconnected from their work[06:01] Leadership as a shared responsibility, not a fixed role[09:27] Adapting leadership to the needs of the moment[10:48] Recognizing your worth and the value you bring[12:03] Creating psychological safety and stronger teamwork[16:01] Establishing clear rules of engagement[19:04] Using visualization to prepare for success[21:24] Turning insight into consistent action[24:19] Accepting the messy reality of leadership[28:57] Building habits and systems that support motivation[32:00] Strengthening trust through honesty and communication[34:19] Viktor Frankl's influence on leadership and meaning[38:02] Applying roving leadership in everyday workNotable Quotes[06:01] “Leadership is not a static; it moves from person to person, dependent on the need and the circumstances.” - Sal Tagliareni[09:36] “Leadership is not one style. -| Sal Tagliareni[10:50] “You have value. Period.” - Sal Tagliareni[12:50] “I see a lot of people who think they have to control everything, and in fact, they're controlling nothing.” - Sal Tagliareni[15:06] “They don't commit to you because you know you're treating them like okay, do this stupid, rather than hey guys, together we really need to do this.” - Sal Tagliareni[18:26] “Courage is a heck of a lot more important than confidence. But you're only going to take courage if you get encouraged.”-| Sal Tagliareni[21:43] “Insight is not enough in human behavior. Behavior is important.” - Sal Tagliareni[24:19] “Leadership is messy and it's tough and it's lonely.” | Sal Tagliareni[28:57] “Motivation isn't the issue most times. It's the lack of a system.” - Sal Tagliareni[38:49] “Transformational culture is not something that happens overnight.” | Sal TagliareniResource and LinksSal TagliareniLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sal-sj-tagliareniBook: A Roving Leadership by Sal TagliareniProductivity Smarts PodcastWebsite - productivitysmartspodcast.comGerald J.
