#033 - BEATING BURNOUT.  Burnout isn't a medical diagnosis, but it has been linked to a range of health problems.  It's more than job-related - it's a people-oriented thing.  Burnout affects people who work with other people in all types of situations, both personal and professional.  Join Dr. Charles Boyer for some ways you can Beat Burnout before it beats YOU. 

#032 - Welcome to OUR NOISY WORLD, the noise pollution in our daily lives and some of the effects noise has on our lives and on our health.  Noise takes a toll on our well-being -- yours, mine, your family and friends, your pets and your house plants.  

#031 - MEETING MANIA is rampant these days.  Some people swear by meetings.  Others swear at them.  You, in your role as leader, are sure to have your share of meetings throughout your career.  Join host Dr. Charles Boyer for some ways to help tame that Meeting Mania Monster.

#030 - Everybody is Somebody, and Nobody is Nobody.  Everyone is unique.  Everyone is special.  Everyone deserves to receive your best efforts to make them feel valued and happy because of you.  Join Dr. Charles Boyer for an episode about treating Everybody as Somebody.  It's what leaders serving others is all about.

#025 - BE YOURSELF.  Why is that so difficult?  The words are easy to say.  The actions you must take to get there are a bit more of a challenge.  Join Dr. Charles Boyer for a discussion of some ways just to be yourself, because everyone else is already taken.

#024 - What do you want on your tombstone?  The most important thing is not your date of birth or death, it's the DASH-IN-BETWEEN.  What will that dash say about you?  Join Dr. Charles Boyer for some thoughts about that Dash-in-Between.

#022 - As a leader, you need to "Imagine That" by promoting creativity and nurturing the imaginations of those you lead.  It's a lot like being the coach of a winning team or being the conductor of a symphony orchestra.  It may look easy, but looks can be deceiving.  Join Dr. Charles Boyer for a session on helping yourself and others to become more creative.

#021 - BIGGER BUMPS in the ROAD - a profound loss, a life-changing, gut-wrenching jolt that literally stops you in your tracks and takes your breath away.  Those bigger bumps can be devastating, even to the most resilient person.  Join Dr. Charles Boyer for a discussion of ways to bounce back from those Bigger Bumps.

#015 - There are bumps, potholes, and detours we ALL have to contend with.  Just like our cars, we all need to equip ourselves with springs and shock absorbers - resilience - to help smooth out those bumps.  Join Dr. Charles Boyer as he discusses ways to be more resilient.
