Sustaining
Surviving Stimulating
Short-Term Gratification
MOJO Test
• Think of a typical day at work
• What percent of your time is spent on
each in each of the five categories?
• What changes can you make to
increase short-term gratification?
• What changes can you make to
increase long-term benefit?
The MOJO Survey
Percent of time spent:
Work – Home
Surviving 14.4 --- 11.4
Stimulating 15.2 --- 21.2
Sacrificing 17.8 --- 15.4
Sustaining 22.7 --- 21.9
Succeeding 29.9 --- 30.1
The MOJO Survey
• There is an incredibly high correlation
between scores at ‘work’ and at ‘home’.
• Our experience of happiness and
meaning says as much about ‘us’ as it
does about ‘it’.
• Spending time with people we love, is
highly correlated with over-all
satisfaction at home and at work.
The MOJO Survey
• Just increasing short-term happiness
(stimulating) does not increase overall
satisfaction at work or even at home.
• The only positive correlation with
overall satisfaction at ‘work’ or ‘home’ –
comes with increased hours in
succeeding.

Making a positive difference
in life
Our mission in life
is to make a positive difference;
not to prove
how smart or right we are.
Peter Drucker
Credibility
The quality of being
convincing,
believable
and
trusted
Our need for approval
• Need for approval is not a psychological
disorder
• Our ancestors – for centuries – needed
approval from their tribe to survive
• Modern professionals have had to ‘prove
themselves’ thousands of times
• It can be very difficult to stop!
• When is it worth it – and when might it do
more harm than good?
My most important
Peter Drucker lessons
• Every decision is made by the person
who has the power to make the decision
• Make peace with that.
• If you need to influence the decision
maker to make a positive difference, the
decision maker is the customer. You
are a salesperson.
• Sell what you can sell.
• Make peace with what you cannot sell.
The Credibility Matrix
• Two dimensions:
– Proving yourself
– Making a positive difference
• Four quadrants:
– Achieving credibility
– Over-selling
– Holding back
– Letting go

Empathy
The ability to:
understand, feel, care about
and act upon
other people’s thoughts
and emotions
Mirroring what we see
and feel in others
• How our mirroring reaction can be
unconscious
• Learning from advertisers
• ‘Everyone is a billboard’
• Going back to mindfulness
• Think of empathy in two ways:
– The impact that they are having on me
– The impact that I am having on them
The four faces
of empathy
• Understanding
• Feeling
• Caring
• Acting
Functional vs. dysfunctional
empathy
• Understanding
• Feeling
• Caring
• Acting
Special challenge for empathy
in caring relationships
• Understanding – making excuses for
their lack of progress
• Feeling – being unable to let go of their
pain
• Caring – burnout, being unable to ‘let
go’ of others’ issues
• Acting – being a ‘people pleaser’,
creating dependency
Demonstrating authentic,
positive empathy
• Be in the present
• Focus on the needs of the other
person
• Learn from a Broadway star
Two questions
self-acceptance
• Did I do what I thought was right?
• Did I do my best?
It is OK to need
help and structure
• The changing role of coaching – from
‘fixing losers’ to ‘helping winners’
• 27 top executive endorsements
• Athletes, movie stars, world leaders
• If could have fixed it by yourself, it
would probably be fixed by now
• ‘I need help and it is OK!’
The value of structure
• The Checklist Manifesto
• The daily question process
• The BPR process
• The LPR process
Keys to positive change
• Courage
• Humility
• Discipline
Daily Question Process
• Why the process works
• How the process works
• Applications on employee
engagement
Previous work
on employee engagement
• NAHR presentation
• Recognition, reward programs, training,
compensation, empowerment
• In spite of all previous efforts, global
employee engagement is near an all-time low
• Focus on what the organization can do to
engage you – not what you can do to engage
yourself – JFK in reverse
• The two flight attendants
Active questions vs.
passive questions
• How active questions focus on what
you can do to make a positive
difference for yourself and the world
• How passive questions focus on
what the world needs to do to make
a positive difference for you
Six active questions
Did I do my best to:
• Set clear goals?
• Make progress toward goal
achievement?
• Be happy?
• Find meaning?
• Build positive relationships?
• Be fully engaged?
That boring meeting!
Imagine that you were going to be tested on:
Am I being
the person that I want to be
right now?
