  • Stop Hiding: Your Company Can't Afford It! ft. David Mantica
    2025/07/23
    Is your leadership style secretly costing your company millions? Many leaders today fall prey to the dangerous pressure of hiding their true selves. And this is draining more than just energy. It's slowly piling up invisible walls within your team—stifling innovation, and quietly sabotaging your bottom line. The old playbook for leaders is failing in today's unpredictable world. It's creating environments of fear, distrust, and burnout, leaving organizations vulnerable to the chaos of rapid change. So today, on the newest episode of the Uncommon Leadership podcast, I sit down with the Managing Director at SoftEd, David Mantica, to pull back the curtain. David has seen how businesses operate from every angle, and with that insight, we explore how true leadership isn't about control, but about authentic connection. It's about bringing your whole self to work, understanding your brain's biases, and cultivating curiosity to truly empower your people. If you want to create a workplace where people are truly engaged and excited about "why" they do what they do, then grab a seat and join in the conversation. -- Is this podcast right for you?: Yes, if you want to build trust and create a long-lasting impact at your organization by showing up as your whole self.Yes, if you are ready to let go of micromanaging or controlling behaviors and lead your team by empowering them.Yes, if you're open to understanding your own biases, recognize when you're not at your best, & actively seek feedback from your team members or colleagues.Yes, if you're determined to create a culture where people feel safe to be themselves, express ideas, and even make mistakes.Yes, if you're just a leader, CEO, or CXO—trying to lead your organization through burnout or stifled growth. -- About the Speakers David Mantica As Managing Director at SoftEd, David Mantica is dedicated to empowering knowledge workers by providing comprehensive training, coaching, and advisory services.

  • What You're Afraid to Face Will Cost You Everything ft. Dan Tocchini
    2025/07/16
    Imagine being constantly caught off guard by problems you never saw coming, while carrying the weight of leadership decisions that could make or break your organization. It's a tough spot, and frankly, a sad reality for many leaders who've unintentionally built walls, missing crucial insights that could save them millions. Welcome to another powerful episode of the Uncommon Leadership Podcast! I'm Michael Hunter, and today, I'm honored to speak with someone who's witnessed this costly pattern firsthand: Dan Tocchini. Tocchini is a true leadership transformation expert, with over 35 years of experience helping executive teams break through seemingly impossible barriers. In this conversation, he reveals exactly how siloed processes create dangerous blind spots—blind spots that can cost millions or, even worse, derail your entire venture. He also tackles the hard questions head-on: How do you balance openness with authority? How do you create cultures where people feel genuinely confident to take risks? And most importantly, how do you turn obstacles into opportunities through what he calls "fascination"—a deeper level of curiosity that transforms breakdowns into breakthroughs. You'll also get a sneak peek into his three pillars of effective leadership and his proven change management framework that explains why a surprising 40% of your team sits on the fence during transitions—and, crucially, how to win them over. This isn't just a feel-good leadership theory. It's a practical roadmap to prevent small problems from becoming million-dollar crises. So tune in now! -- Key Learnings from this Conversation: Isolating aspects of your leadership or team guarantees costly surprises and missed opportunities.Openness about challenges empowers your team to deliver solutions you'd never find alone.Don't avoid discomfort or difficult conversations.Foster a culture where genuine inquiry, not rigid authority, drives rapid learning and pivots.Your actions, not just your words, build the trust and define the culture your team will embody.Unite your team around collective success to navigate conflict effectively and achieve breakthrough results.A leader's discipline to care, even when others don't, is vital for long-term team health and preventing future issues. -- Want to get in touch with the speakers?
