Awareness to Action Coaching is open for business. We tend to find what we're looking for, so welcome! For those of you who haven't heard my story, here's the very short version: Nearly 10 years ago, a coach changed my life for the better. Well, I changed my life for the better over time, but with the great privilege and luxury of having a professional coach support me in that journey (Note: It's an ongoing journey). Having witnessed the positive ripple effects of those changes through my own work and life, and - even better, through the work & lives of others - my calling to the profession grew. I'm now an ICF member coach, trained by Pairin, CoachU, and a growing body of experience. I hope to honor the profession and spread the word of coaching; but the best thing I do for the world on any given day is to simply be present with a client, one-on-one, in a coaching session. There are already so many of you to thank for supporting my pivot, and the work is just getting started. Much more to come, but for now...consider this an invitation. Want to learn more about yourself? Want to build confidence in your personal mission? Want to build on your strengths? Want to tackle that nagging feeling that something's not quite working right in your life? Want to give a high-potential employee a jumpstart? What do you want for your life? Call me an optimist, but I think you can do all that and more, and I'm here to partner with you from awareness to action. Cheers to Your Success! Joe Miller

Wishing the team at Big Valley Auto Auction an awesome 16th anniversary sale today. The 16th anniversary gift is wax as it turns out. It's too hot in Texas to send a wax figure of Mere Rangel so instead we're sending encouragement to "light that candle" at today's sale. Congrats on all of your success Lisa Franz and team!

🚀 Great news! Earlier this year, we announced a partnership with the Automotive Remarketing Alliance to launch Hand Up—a new program designed to inspire and fast-track the next generation of leaders in remarketing. I’m thrilled to share that our inaugural group kicked off last week, ahead of schedule! 🙌 We connected during an energizing video call and began building the relationships that will grow over the next 6 months. The entire team behind Hand Up is excited to watch the growth, collaboration, and success that will emerge from this initiative. 💡 Want to be part of the next group? I’ve got a special link for you in the comments! #Leadership #Remarketing #Growth #Networking #Partnership https://lnkd.in/ejmX9Zwd

CEO Advisor & Leadership Coach //Host of HBR podcast, Coaching Real Leaders// Author
“Employees who perceive their leaders as being high on expertise but low on openness have the highest intention to quit of all and the same level of burnout as employees rating their leaders as low on both.” Let that lil' piece of data marinate for a minute. We spend so much of our lives becoming experts and, while it’s important to be knowledgeable, leaders having a “beginner’s mindset” is what matters more to employees according to the Potential Project's Jacqueline Carter, Marissa Afton and Paula Kelley in their Harvard Business Review article. This is something I work on a LOT with the senior leaders I coach. They have to relearn what it means to “own the room” -- that it’s not only or always about having the answer or showing how much they know but rather their ability to consider different views, facilitate the discussion, and even admit when they don’t have full information. I may not call it beginner’s mindset when I coach them but, in essence, that is what they’re recultivating. How important is it to you for a leader to have a beginner’s mindset? How do you cultivate a beginner’s mindset for yourself? Would love to hear. https://lnkd.in/emq3gvqk #mindset #leadership #coaching #harvardbusinessreview

Stay hungry, friends! https://lnkd.in/esXX7irE
Eating the Elephant vs. Eating the Frog There are times when we must eat the frog. It’s the thing we’ve been putting off. The hard thing we’re dreading but we know we must do. The task that’s just unclear or uncertain enough where it goes beyond challenge and into more serious discomfort. When I was managing others, we talked a lot about eating those frogs early – get ‘em done and over. Now, as a coach, I find myself addressing the elephants more often. We all have elephants to eat. These are the bigger goals, challenges, and arcs in our lives that take time. Overwhelming in their own way, the challenge often ends up being more about prioritization, planning, and patience – setting up the task in digestible chunks – recognizing that progress may take time and not be visible in the short term. How do the elephant and frog relate to what drives us forward or hold us back? How often are we completely forgetting about the elephant because we’re so focused on the frog? Or perhaps the frog seems even less tasty, because we don’t fully understand the main course of the elephant that looms. Is the frog just the elephant’s toe in disguise?

Doing some final prep for phase 2 of The Coach Approach for Leaders Workshop, which Joe will deliver on Monday to Class 8 of the Auction Academy. We got off to a very engaged start in Detroit a few weeks ago, and look forward to seeing how this group of leaders approaches a new conversational model that can transform their ability to help others succeed. Auction Academy alumni can also look forward to a special offer coming soon from Penny Wanna, as we’re partnering to offer a high-impact, easy-to-digest, leadership self-awareness check-up. Thank you again to Penny Wanna, CAR and the entire team at Auction Academy for the positive partnership!

Happy Monday! (Is it?) Coming off a big holiday week for many of us here in the US, and we're curious: What anticipatory feelings did you have yesterday? Excitement? Dread? Curiosity? Relief? Maybe not much at all? How ready were you to get back to work? How did you sleep last night? The return to work from time off, even just a weekend, can offer us valuable insight to our relationship with work. If this is a "thing" for you, how well do you really understand it? What do you want to be different about it? Who can partner with you to make that change? Hint, hint: This is a wonderful topic to discuss with your coach.

How can we help you understand, explore, test, and discover the possibilities of coaching in your organization and in your life?
Happy International Coaching Week to all of my automotive, technology, professional services, and coaching industry colleagues and clients! As I approach the one year anniversary of embarking on my professional coaching journey, I'm reflecting on achievements, possibilities, and the process of change. Often, the most meaningful changes are the ones that happen slowly, incrementally over time as we learn to trust ourselves and those around us in new ways. As you look back to who you were and how you were one year, two years, five years ago...what are some of the differences? Are they positive? This week I am celebrating this opportunity to live a dream as I support others in making meaningful, long-lasting change in their work and lives. Are you ready to test out coaching? I'm here for you.

Great seeing everyone last week in Phoenix at CAR! Reflecting on so many deep conversations in addition to light-hearted moments; it's just a joy to be in the presence of long-time friends and colleagues, even if we feel we have to be "on" for a good bit of it. I encountered this podcast today and had to share it. The concept of FOPO (fear of other peoples' opinions); differentiating between care and worry as it relates to others' opinions; subtle on ramps and off ramps for FOPO-induced anxiety; and the paradoxical way that self-centeredness can drive us into that anxiety...well, there are lots of nuggets! So with memories from the conference still fresh, why not break out those "kind mirrors" and take a listen. Enjoy. https://lnkd.in/eBUQ-c9b
