Stutman: Trait anxiety and poor judgment cannot be fixed through coaching
“If you tell me that you've got some, you know, stress, anxiety, trait anxiety, I can't coach for that. If you tell me that you have bad judgment, I probably change your judgment time. Take me 20 years. If you've got poor judgment, that is not a coachable thing…”

Stutman: Resolve conflict via voice rather than inflammatory text or email
“You might have a rule that says, when conflict occurs, I immediately go to voice-to-voice conversation, because I don't do conflict vis-a-vis texts or emails, because those are inflammatory mediums, because we get to hide behind the words and not the face and …”

Stutman: High public profile is an enemy that invites scrutiny and lawsuits
“Profile is your enemy. It makes you a target for litigation. It makes you a target for media scrutiny. It makes you a target for pure jealousy. Profile for all great leaders, unless they can't avoid it, Is your enemy, and your job is not to covet profile.”

Stutman: Most executive coaches lack actionable answers and rely on vague facilitation
“The majority of coaches that do this for a living don't have answers. And I actually, some of them are very proud with the idea that they process people and the answers are in other people. I believe the answers are in all of this, but at the same time, if you…”

Stutman: Top leaders fix underperformance by requiring frequent, specific progress reporting
“So, so when we study the best leaders, people that are really good at elevating performance and getting the most out of teams, we were interested in finding, is there something that they do differently? And the answer is, yeah, they do. And they basically conf…”

Stutman: Leaders motivate more effectively by practicing consistent fan-ness
“And that by being a great fan of other people, and showing your fan-ness, and asking yourself the question in almost every context, what would a fan do here? What would somebody who's your fan do? That becomes a very different thing because you can work on you…”

Stutman: Sizing up and adapting to individual motivations in real time fails
“What you learn really quickly is that being able to size people up and adapt to them in an ongoing flow of interaction is almost impossible. So you've got your own goals. You've got other competing things going on. You've got the noise of the context. It's ver…”

Stutman: People are systematically more critical of others in their own strengths
“There's a bias that almost everybody has across the whole world. You have it, I have it, everybody has it, and that is, we're generally more critical of people based on our own strengths. Whatever it is that we're good at, we're more critical about other peopl…”

Stutman: Great Followership Leaders Act as Fans and Deeply Invest in People
“Good followership leaders tend to be high fans of other people. They tend to be relationally close to other people, but in particular, they tend to invest in other people in a multitude of ways, and that builds a sense of loyalty and a connection that they get…”

Stutman: Frame feedback as recommendations to drastically reduce employee defensiveness
“What I tell leaders all the time, Ted, is they need to get out of the feedback business and get in the recommendation and suggestion business. They're going to be able to give a lot more feedback a lot more often with a lot less resistance and defensiveness ju…”

Stutman: Leaders must prioritize relationships and conversations over tasks
“I'd argue that you need to organize yourself more about relationships and conversations than about tasks. That too many leaders think about tasks, and by the way, that's a perfectly acceptable majority of the world does that. But if you're going to be good at …”

Stutman: Rewarding decision process over outcome produces better long-term decisions
“Start celebrating decision processes that are great processes that produce bad outcomes. What you're going to find is you make for people willing to take more risk, willing to invest their time and energy, hone in and be specific with the process. Long term, t…”

Stutman: High-performing toxic employees require high-cadence feedback on small issues
“You need an ongoing high cadence of feedback on the smallest issues over time. What you'll see is you'll slowly move people from negative to positive in terms of climate attitude, other kinds of affect. That's the key. If I save it up and I never give it to yo…”

Stutman: Low-empathy leaders can build relational closeness through deep understanding
“They've learned to create relational closeness without empathy. They've learned to create it without being warm and fuzzy and giving people a lot of couch time. What they've done is they've invest deeply in those people and understanding them.”

Stutman: Deliver feedback immediately after successes, not mistakes, to reduce defensiveness
“Right after success, right after mission accomplished, right after tasks have been achieved, people are much more receptive to feedback. Why? Because they've just succeeded. They've got an armor to them because of their success, their effectiveness. They're mu…”

Stutman: Embed feedback inside 'how' questions to completely bypass defensiveness
“A how question, if it's done and carries feedback, actually embeds the feedback inside the question. When I say to you, Ted, how are you going to upgrade the talent on your team? The feedback is that your team talent needs to be upgraded. But I don't say that.…”

Stutman: Practicing leadership behaviors solely for effect causes abandonment when they fail
“Because if you do them for effect, you won't keep them up. You'll only do them in some situations. You won't get very skillful at them. As soon as they don't work on somebody, you'll give them up. You got to pick the behavior that you believe in that represent…”
