MaryScifMastering AnxietySuch a helpful tool in this month’s episode - for myself and for my clients. So helpful to focus on empathy and self-compassion when anxiety is on the rise, and the idea of “taming the wild child” had me laughing out loud, a nice gift when thinking about such a tough topic. “A scared kid wants their fears taken seriously.” Don’t we all? Thank you, Tom, for your vulnerability and candid guidance.

KS635Impactful Leadership Lessons through Great Storytelling.Tom is a masterful storyteller who weaves engaging stories and lessons. There is a theme to each one and references to many others throughout as well so you can really hear all the different parts working together. In addition, he explains and creates materials for the different models to make it all become something that can be easily grasped and implemented. I’m grateful he is willing to share his experience and expertise through this podcast.

AaalisssonI wish it was a conversation not a one-man playThe topics are really interesting and people seem to get a lot out of it but I really struggle to connect because he acts out a conversation when I wish he’d just bring the guests on to have that exact conversation. It just feels weird.

David from PortlandExtraordinary, valuable, inspiring and fun!I’ve been listening this podcast since 2018 and it has accompanied me through some tough times, helping me find clarity and tools that would lead me forward and to a better place. I can’t recommend this podcast enough. It delivers in every episode and gold nugget of coaching wisdom.

A. MaguireBite Size WisdomI first heard of Tom through “Coaching for Leaders”, I’m in the lower levels of Management looking to move up, and becoming a better leader is a big part of that. Many leadership podcasts deal in vagueness and executive level information. While Tom’s advice is definitely applicable to higher echelons it’s the practical application of his advice to any level. We all manage expectations. We all oversee productivity. It’s that personal connection and self reflection that separates leaders and managers. Also as an aside, as someone who listens to many many podcasts, Toms voice is just delightful. Update: still the best leadership coaching podcast. I’ve decided to start listening from the beginning and there’s like 15 years of episodes wow Update: I’d like to update my review to 1/5 based on the fact that if Tom hadn’t taught me Sorting and labeling, I wouldn’t have been angry at our guest speaker for talking for an hour with literally no structure. I probably wouldn’t have noticed how bad it was without knowing this information. So Thanks Tom :) Update: Shoutout to Todd Update Update: Tom’s podcast has a secondary effect, listening to it not every episode might be applicable to everyone but even if they aren’t listening to them changes your mindset on how to be a leader. I recently got passed over for promotion for a more seasoned leader, but because of my mindset and willingness to accept feedback I learned from Tom I was able to create with my manager a development plan that included a lateral move exposing me to new skills and experience. No doubt me from a decade ago would have sulked and whined. Tom talks a lot about leadership but when you listen really listen it boils down to one thing the only way to lead others is to manage yourself. Update update update: um pumpernickel

Dogeboi765A real corporate survival guideThis is, hands down, my favorite work-related podcast. In it, Tom Henschel provides listeners with what is basically an essential “corporate survival guide”. Tom, if you read this, you are such an inspiration.

Dave StachowiakMy favorite leadership podcastI’ve listened to Tom’s show for over a decade and continually recommend it to many leaders. It’s my favorite podcast on leadership. Tom does a masterful job of recalling a past coaching conversation with a client in each episode and bringing out the lessons in a concise way. Plus, Tom’s vocal projection and training as an actor is a real gem to listen to, as he recreates past stories. Thank you, Tom. Grateful for your work!

Weathered25Much more than a leadership PodcastMy wife listens to your podcast regularly, which means I listen every so often. Each time I do, I am struck by how relatable your stories and advice are to interacting with people in general. I’m not in a leadership role in the workplace, but I do serve as a GM for several friends in our Dungeons and Dragons campaign.(Game Master for anyone outside the table top role playing game community) The tips and lessons I’ve heard from several episodes, have helped improve my conflict resolution, communication, and even presentation skills in my leadership role at our game table(or zoom call because it is 2023 after all and scheduling in person meet ups are near impossible.) The Episode “How to Stay Calm Under Fire” was the one that really struck a chord with me, and I ended up suggesting it to several of my GM friends. Fantastic podcast, and would definitely recommend!

WesternlauraAlways Learn Something Helpful!This show is always helpful! Sometimes new ways to look at work situations and sometimes great reminders.

Excellent show that I recommend to all my colleagues and friends!

Trainer in trainingA balm to soothe the soulAs leaders in the work place it is often lonely and challenging. People are a puzzle and often we overlook how we can get in our own way of being perceived the way we’d like to be perceived. I’ve found when I’m struggling with a particularly challenging situation, Tom usually has had a similar situation that he recreates with delightful skill and empathy.

JaysonLevyFor Businesspeople, Volunteers, Humans in RelationshipI look forward to each episode of The Look & Sound of Leadership because Essential Communications and Tom Henshaw (sp?) concisely and warmly deliver information that improves my thinking and/or communications. And, it often gives tools to reinforce the presentation.
