Episode 54
Monday, 3 May, 2021
MEET JANNELLA U.S. Air Force veteran, Dr. Jannell MacAulay has managed human performance under high-stress situations for over two decades. As a military leader and combat pilot, she experienced the same stress, frustration, and fears that leaders and teams in corporate America face daily in their personal and professional lives. Her own personal journey led to earning her Ph.D. with work in the field of strategic health and human performance. With her innovative leadership style, she was the first leader to introduce mindfulness as a proactive performance strategy within the US military.She continues to consult within the DoD, DoJ, and corporate America delivering keynotes, training, and a high-performance mindset training program that she developed with Pete Carroll of the Seattle Seahawks and Dr. Michael Gervais, a high-performance sports psychologist. JANNELL'S USEFUL TIPSThe Military is a high strain occupation with a focus on being a servant leader. Often in environments that are demanding, we tend to define servant leadership as putting everyone before ourselves. However, Dr. MacAulay's research on high achieving/performing leaders and athletes has proven that there is a necessary place for self-care in successful servant leadership. In the end, you must "fill your cup" to have anything to give.To be a high performing leader and mom you work hard. But to continually work hard at a high pace, you must be properly "trained" to do so. Dr MacAuly's research has concluded there are 3 things you have control over in training: you body, craft and mind. Your mind is the most difficult to conquer, but with practice can help you focus on each task at hand and not be distracted.When you identify that you are having a stress response and about to make an emotional decision or action, "Go to the cloud". This was a commonly used phrase Lt Col MacAulay used to lay the foundation of mindset practice in the workplace. It was a trigger to say when she identified her or one of her coworkers was experiencing a stress response to a current event. Instead of making an emotional response, it cues them to take a step back and reengage. Being a military woman, dual spouse, mom, etc can bring many obstacles in a military career. When making a decision on any aspect (such as when to start a family) Jannell mentors individuals to ask themselves the following 3 questions. As life progresses, constantly reengage with these questions as they may change over time. 1. What do I value?2. What gives me purpose?3. How do I define success?CONNECT WITH JANNELLEMAIL: contact@jannellmacaulay.comPHONE: (707) 806-0080WEBSITE: https://jannellmacaulay.com/ FB: @DrJannellMacAulayIG: @MacAulayjcTWITTER: @JannellMacAulay
