About this Episode:
In this episode of the Transformative Leader Podcast, I’m happy to bring you a conversation with leadership and entrepreneurial management coach, Kris Plachy, about how to lead and manage teams that stick together and win together by creating a culture of authentic accountability. Known for her simple, honest and authentic style, Kris has poured her life’s work into learning about, understanding and then guiding leaders through the tricky path of learning how to lead a team. In a space where there is a lot of “noise” and questionable advice, Kris has designed the “how to” of team leadership through her Five Step Management System, as well as the premier guide to CEO leadership through her unparalleled “How to CEO for Female Entrepreneurs” course and coaching integration program.
Kris earned her leadership stripes in a corporate start up culture and was quickly and consistently recognized as a top performing leader, year after year. Despite the changes in the market and in the business, Kris consistently built teams that not only won together, but stuck together. She has made it her life’s work to guide leaders and entrepreneurs—especially women—through tough situations and teach them how to lead their teams. Kris cuts through the noise and consistently builds teams that not only win together, but stick together!
Kris coaches the (especially female) leaders and entrepreneurs that are literally shaping and changing the world. She is recognized as the one to turn to when you need a sage partner-advisor mind. What clients find working with Kris is an in-depth knowing and understanding of business operations and management, combined with a levity and energy that is disarming and safe. In conversations with Kris, clients find her to be direct, honest and enthusiastic in how she helps navigate moments in their business that they likely never considered or thought they’d have to resolve.
After 25 years of leading, managing and coaching leaders, Kris has a unique ability to quickly assess challenges and apply immediate, simple solutions. In fact, Kris knows without a doubt, there is no challenge you are facing as a leader that she can’t help you solve. Together with her team, Kris combines business acumen, exceptional coaching skill, and sound, relevant and immediately applicable practices that literally change how much women, leaders, and entrepreneurs both lead and love their businesses.
Some topics discussed in this episode include:
The difference between leadership, management, and coaching, and how they interact with each other.
Why we should understand accountability as a state of mutual commitment, and why it has to start with us as leaders.
The five steps to create a culture of accountability.
Essential skills that leaders must develop to create strong teams and organizations, including skills that might not seem so important or “fun.“
And much, much more…
