Raw Leadership - The Podcast is where real leadership challenges are discussed and actionable ideas for improvement are offered. Elizabeth Veliz offers a raw, no B.S. perspective on what leaders are doing to drive engagement in organizations, communities and social settings, AND what they are doing that makes people want to run for the hills. Using a combination of humor, a touch of sarcasm and over 27 years in business, Elizabeth delivers a refreshing perspective on the greatest challenges facing leaders and how to potentially overcome them.

S2. Episode 9: The ABC's of Leadership: B is for Brave
In today's ever-changing world of work, the ability to be
brave and take risks is essential for professional growth and success. While

or climbing mountains, being brave in the workplace entails a different kind of
courage. It involves stepping out of your comfort zone, challenging the status
quo, and embracing new opportunities. In this episode of Raw Leadership: The Podcast, we will explore the
importance of being brave at work and how it can lead to personal and
professional fulfillment.

Season 2: Ep. 5: The ABC's of Leadership: A is for Accountability

Season 2: Ep. 4: Managing to the B.A.R.

We are nearing the end of the first quarter of the year 2023 and most employees still don't have a clear understanding of what success looks like in their roles.

The lack of clear expectations has significant repercussions. In this episode of Raw Leadership: The Podcast I offer a pretty simple solution. Listen in so you can learn how to set the B.A.R. and offer your teams clarity on what success looks like in their roles.

Season 2: Ep. 2: The Work-Life Balance Fallacy
Following on the heels of the Saturday Morning Leadership podcast I thought it would be important to dive into the concept of work-life balance. I mentioned in the last podcast I recorded with Shelley Smith [owner of Premier Rapport] that I felt the idea of work-life balance was a fallacy and felt it was important to help my audience understand why I feel that way, how we should be looking at work and life, and what things we can do to drive synergy or integration between the two. Listen in and let me know what you think. #rawleadership

Episode 1: The Culture Hour Crossover: Saturday Morning Leadership
It has been so long since Shelley Smith - owner of Premier Rapport AND my BFF - and I have recorded a podcast together. It's been SO long that I honestly can't remember when that last one was recorded. It's also been over a year since I've recorded an episode of RAW Leadership: The Podcast. SO! Allow me to present you with the best of both worlds! In Season 2, Episode 1 of RAW Leadership The Podcast we host a crossover episode with The Culture Hour called Saturday Morning Leadership recorded on Saturday morning - March 11, 2023 right in my living room.
It is 2023 and we are still experiencing the same leadership challenges we've been dealing with for decades. Why? In this episode I asked Shelley that question - and as always our conversation evolves organically into why this is happening from our POVs AND what you can and should do about it. Enjoy!!!
PS - this is a RAW video recording - zero editing, zero intro music...just us, with our Tigger coffee mugs, no hair and makeup done, sweatshirts and jeans, and RAW conversation!!!

Millions of people are resigning from their jobs every month. Millions, but why? Is it really because they don't want to work? Is it really because they are afraid of returning to work amidst the pandemic? Nah! The real reasons for this tsunami of resignations are forcing employers to hold up a mirror - because THEY are the real reason for this insanity. But wait! Is this really new news??? Take a listen and find out!

What do water and leadership have in common?
Being flexible is great. It really is, but flexibility has limits. Eventually something that is flexible will snap or break when pushed beyond its limits. Water on the other hand is fluid. It moves and adapts within the confines of what holds it. Leadership needs to be like water - it needs to be fluid.

Get out of the way!!!
Leaders sometimes get in the way of their team's ability to actually do their jobs well. The story shared in this episode is a prime example of what happens when we don't get out of the way and give our people the tools they need to do their jobs. It's all about the drill!!!
