On this episode of Management Development Unlocked, Eric interviews Wayne Mullins. Wayne is a husband, father, entrepreneur, leader, and manager who always tries to learn and grow. He is the founder of Ugly Mug Marketing, where most of his management and leadership takes place today. He is passionate about helping others develop and become better versions of themselves.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

1. How Wayne manages self-accountable, high-performing teams and what being self-accountable means.
2. Self-accountability’s role in leadership and management, why leaders have to create a clear vision for where they want to go for their teams, and the three components of a clear vision.
3. The most important person you need to manage (hint: yourself!), how to do that gracefully, and what the concept of “when furious, get curious” means.
4. Wayne Mullins’ recommendations for dealing with team members who don’t fit the company culture and why cultures are self-selecting.
5. How you can fix a company culture that isn’t in line with company offerings and an example of that concept in play.
6. The value in having mentors, coaches, therapists, etc., in your corner as a leader.
7. The story behind Ugly Mug Marketing’s name.

Did you know that one in four managers were promoted to leadership positions with no formal training? Unsurprisingly, this trend negatively impacts employee performance. Research proves that “accidental managers” make team members feel less satisfied, valued, and motivated in their jobs.

If you don’t know how to support your new managers in their transition to their new position, my upcoming FREE Masterclass: Lead Like a Pro, is for you! In this special session, I will give you an executive overview of a new course I have developed to help new managers thrive in their new leadership roles.
