In today’s episode, I discuss our family unexpected move from Texas to Arizona and the number that did on all of us. We went from feeling set for the future to feeling scrambled as we rushed out of town…and I felt totally lost with where and what I am supposed to do next.

For the Sponsor I Widh I Had, I talk about Melin Hats - worth the price as they look great, hold their shape and last forever.

I also discuss our ability to manage change and use the example of how many places we all have lived over the years.

For the Just the Tip segment, it’s all about size…watch sizing.

What are the strategies for managing cultural change? How can we measure the impact? And what are the emerging trends that may have an influence? In EP121, Toby Mildon, Founder & Director of Mildon, joins Melinda in an action-oriented discussion on creating organizational culture change. They explore various change management models and strategic frameworks leaders can implement to drive DEI initiatives and measure their impact across teams. They tackle the importance of DEI practitioners taking a human-centered approach to problem-solving and using data to identify and address significant issues in the workplace. They also share insights on emerging DEI trends and the future of diversity, equity, and inclusion in business.


About Toby Mildon (he/him)

Toby Mildon, a leading expert in diversity and inclusion with a proven track record of success in helping some of the UK's largest companies - including the BBC, Deloitte, Sony, and HarperCollins Publishing - improve staff retention, brand innovation, productivity, and performance.

Toby's lifelong passion for D&I stems from his personal and professional experiences with inequality, and his belief that building a culture of inclusive growth is essential for organizational success. He created the Inclusive Growth Culture Program to help businesses like yours implement real change and avoid superficial diversity initiatives. If your company has more than 250 employees (or is expecting to grow to this size), Toby is the right person to help you drive your business forward and achieve new heights.

Moving beyond superficial diversity initiatives and building a culture of inclusive growth is essential because it addresses the underlying issues of inequality and creates a sustainable framework for continued growth and success. Companies that focus on this approach see better results, both in terms of revenue growth and employee engagement.

Diverse and inclusive workforces contribute to brand innovation and productivity because they bring together different perspectives and experiences, which can lead to more creative solutions and better decision-making. Looking to the future, Toby sees D&I becoming increasingly important for business competitiveness. He encourages companies to prepare themselves for these developments by prioritizing D&I and making it an integral part of their organizational strategy. By doing so, companies can become leaders in their industry and attract and retain top talent.

My guest this week is Luca Dondi, an executive coach based in Rome, Italy, who has developed an intriguing niche helping executives navigate across cultures.

Luca knows this experience first hand having worked (and studied) in multiple cultures and frequently as a minority both due to his personality, life approach, and nationality.

In this interview, Luca shares his career, life path, and his ability to find the Sage approach when we change jobs and geographies and create other bold and brave life change.

You can learn more about Luca and his coaching services by visiting his website and about my coaching and training by visiting mine or my LinkedIn profile, too.

Note to listeners: This week's podcast is a re-do from an earlier interview because Coach Luca and my Stickler saboteurs surfaced! We realized though (in full Sage mode) we could do better on this vital topic.  This version's MUCH better AND we added Bach music. 

We are super excited about this episode. After an introduction from John Pierson, a local faith empowered business owner, Ed and Bill discuss Bolsinger's book and its appropriateness for leaders in the church and workplace. Based on the idea of Adaptive Leadership, Bolsinger's book is timely for those leading in the unchartered territory of today. Bill and Ed apply the concepts from the book to both the church and the workplace. If you are a Christian and find yourself in a position of leadership in the church or workplace, you don't want to miss this episode.
