The Common Demoninator
The Common Demoninator
Episode 16: The Common Denominator
“You’re so vain … you probably think this podcast’s about you, don’t you.”
Are you the common denominator? When things aren’t going so well in your business, your relationships, or your life, and these issues keep coming up again and again, are you the link? When things go right, do you know how to replicate your results?
Finding your common denominators can help you shift your focus to creating new, more productive patterns while allowing you to enact true change for the better (or to continue on the right path if you’re on it). By addressing communication styles, mindset, and attitude, as well as systems and processes, Lynn and Amanda break down when, how, and why you need to determine who (or what) the common denominator is.
In today’s episode, Lynn and Amanda discuss real-life, personal examples of looking for the common denominator, and how it makes all the difference in their businesses.
They cover:
What is a common denominator
Where to focus your energy and efforts
Complainers
Even leadership can be the problem
Training your team
Letting go of ego
The common denominator as a positive
When to bring on additional help
Communication, mindset, energy, and attitude
Understanding communication styles
DISC
Common denominator as a system or process rather than a person
Amplifying your results
Tracking and data analysis
Recognizing when you or someone in your team are the problem
Making difficult decisions as a leader
Admitting mistakes
Personality and cultural considerations
Adding boundaries and accountability
Having difficult and awkward conversations
Obtaining results that move you forward
How negative common denominators affect your bottom line, company culture, retention, client experience, and more
Leaders lead. Managers manage. Owners own.
When to step in and have a conversation
Being partially liable
Allowing the common denominator to be a part of the solution
Not everyone can be an entrepreneur and not everyone can own a business
“This is just how it’s done.”
Going against the norm
Solopreneurs and self-sabotage
Lack of results is a result
Holding yourself accountable
Setting yourself up for failure
Realizing regular events aren’t necessarily the common denominator
