Attention Residue: Why You Can't Focus

The Self Aware Leader with Jason Rigby ·

2026/10/01

You've moved on to the next meeting, but your mind is still on the last problem. That's attention residue: thoughts about previous work competing with what needs your attention now. Jason Rigby explains research by Sophie Leroy and Theresa Glomb on task switching, unfinished work, and a simple "ready-to-resume" plan. Before switching tasks, briefly write down where you stopped and how you'll return. Hear how to use this practice before a conversation, why checking email right before a meeting can

How to Coach an Employee Who Isn't Performing

The Self Aware Leader with Jason Rigby ·

2026/07/25

Most managers think they're coaching. What they're actually doing is announcing numbers — and it's why the same person is behind again this month. You've had the conversation. Maybe three times. You told them to step up, to be more accountable, to take more ownership. They said they'd work on it. Nothing changed. So either they don't want it, or you're coaching a mood instead of a skill. In this episode I break down what coaching an employee actually looks like when it works: how to find the

Dreading a Hard Conversation? Try This 10-Minute Prep

The Self Aware Leader with Jason Rigby ·

2026/07/16

You've got a hard conversation coming. And last night you ran it in your head forty times — every version ending with you losing the room. You called it preparing. It wasn't. Here's the thing nobody tells you: you're already visualizing. Every leader does. You just do it backwards — rehearsing the disaster and then sitting in it, instead of rehearsing your way out of it. The short answer: Mental rehearsal is not a vision board. It's the same practice elite performers use before high-pressure

Why Employees Don't Trust Leaders Anymore — Toxic...

The Self Aware Leader with Jason Rigby ·

2026/05/25

Your employees don't trust you. Not you personally — leadership in general. And most leaders have no idea how deep that distrust runs or what it actually takes to fix it. In this episode of The Self Aware Leader, Jason Rigby breaks down the employee trust crisis happening in 2026 — why your team walks in the door already suspicious, what toxic leadership looks like from the inside, and why servant leadership is the only real answer to a generation that has been let down by every authority figure

Your Higher Self Isn't a Goal. It's a Direction.

The Self Aware Leader with Jason Rigby ·

2026/05/09

You've already met the version of yourself you're trying to become. The conversation where you stopped managing yourself and just told the truth. The decision that cost you something but felt clean all the way down. The morning where nobody needed anything from you and for an hour you were completely, unmistakably yourself. That wasn't a fluke. That was the signal. In this episode, Jason digs into one of the most misunderstood concepts in personal development — the higher self — and strips away

What Is a Self-Aware Leader? How to Stop Reacting and...

The Self Aware Leader with Jason Rigby ·

2026/04/24

Self-awareness is not thinking about yourself all day. It is the ability to notice what is happening inside you before it leaks into your leadership. In this episode of The Self Aware Leader, Jason Rigby breaks down what self-aware leadership actually means in real life: the meeting where your tone changes, the feedback you do not want to hear, the hard conversation you keep avoiding, the moment your ego gets hit, and the pattern your team has quietly learned to manage around. This episode explores

You got promoted. You promised yourself you'd be different — the approachable boss, the one people actually want to work for. But six months in, your team likes you and doesn't respect you. You can feel it. You just don't want to say it out loud yet. This episode breaks down the people-pleasing trap that quietly destroys new managers. Jason Rigby explains why what feels like empathy is actually conflict avoidance — and why your "niceness" is costing you your best people. You'll learn: • The

2026/03/26

Harvard Business Review ran a study where executives used ChatGPT to make predictions. They came out more confident, more optimistic — and significantly more wrong than the group that just talked to each other. That's the problem this episode is about. Most leaders are using AI as a validation machine — not a thinking tool. And there's a reason for it. Research shows that over 58% of AI interactions are sycophantic. The model is trained to agree with you, validate your framing, and give your

The Self Aware Leader with Jason Rigby ·

2026/03/17

You already know you're too reactive. You just haven't named what's causing it. The average leader gets hit with a notification every two minutes during core work hours. That's 275 interruptions a day. Each one fires a cortisol stress response that takes 23 minutes to fully recover from. And the reflex to check — the phone grab, the inbox flip, the Slack tab — is driven by the same dopamine loop that keeps teenagers scrolling TikTok for hours. Different content. Identical mechanism.

How Childhood Trauma Secretly Fuels Your Success… and How to Turn It Into Real Power (with Michael Shaw) Most high-achieving leaders are running on hidden trauma.
