The GLUE of Leadership Development

Amy Kelly pt 1

Have you ever had a workplace disagreement in your career?  It may not have even been that bad of a disagreement. But over time, it continued to eat away until, ultimately, it DID affect your life, your workplace, your family, etc.?

Have you ever said something that you regretted saying?

Have you ever done something that had the opposite effect you intended and you wished you could go back and do over in a different way?

Making decisions in business and in relationships is normal. How you communicate and how you handle decisions can result in either success or failure. Each decision you make can either strengthen the bonds of the relationships you have – or tear them apart.

Sometimes, when you handle things the wrong way and the relationship is torn apart, you wish there was some type of glue to bring it all back together, right?

Well, my guest today just happens to have that glue available for you to use…

Amy Kelly is the Vice President of Consulting for the Jon Gordon Companies and a human resource and talent development executive who is known for building high-performance talent and cultures, including award winning workplaces and leadership development programs.

She has released a book titled, “G.L.U.E. – A Leadership Development Strategy to Bond and Unite.”  This book is a must read for any business, any home, any community or ministry leader who needs to grow personal leadership effectiveness and create unity in the home, workplace and world.

First question, other than that brief information I just shared, can you tell us in your own words, “Who is Amy Kelly?”

Why did you write “GLUE” and why do you believe it is so needful right now?

You say your book, “GLUE,” provides a framework to build relationships and trust – even in the midst of conflict.  How do you go about doing that?

I can say, the story line you provide is riveting. I mean, I can relate to the premise of starting and running a business with a close friend, only to have that friend decide to branch off and do their own thing with the ideas you mutually developed. That happened to me about 25 years ago. And that relationship did not end well and still, to this day, really has not healed.

Give us the quick synopsis of the story plot between Linda and Cindy…

How did Linda’s Faith help her to come to the point where she could accept Cindy’s decision to leave the business and start her own?

How does this fit into the discussion of minimizing disagreements and negative emotional energy that you describe?

How did the COVID pandemic, shutdowns and all of that effect what you are trying to share in this book?

You need to obtain your own copy of Amy Kelly’s book, “G.L.U.E. – A Leadership Development Strategy to Bond and Unite.” This book will transform your life, your business and your relationships. Just go down into the show notes and click the links right there to order your copy today.

About your host

Profile picture for Robert Thibodeau

Robert Thibodeau

I am a 12 year Army veteran as both enlisted and as a commissioned Cavalry Officer.
I am now a retired law enforcement supervisor...

I had my own business for seven years before I entered law enforcement.

As a cop, I was injured on the job on May 12, 2007 and after several surgeries over a couple of years, forced to retire in 2011.

As I was looking down the road to “what am I going to do next?” I started what is now known as a podcast (I had no clue at the time).

Within six months of starting (what I called) “My online radio program” I was offered an opportunity to be on nationwide AM radio. I learned A LOT in one year of doing that!

I then started the online Christian radio platform "Evangelism Radio" in the fall of 2010. It has had listeners in 160+ nations and all 50 states. We host 50+ Christian broadcasters on a weekly basis. We have been operating 24/7 for almost 14 years now. We have been rated #1 in the world by Shoutcast. com on several occasions in our genre. We recently transferred ownership of Evangelism Radio to another ministry so I could concentrate full time on podcasting, preaching and writing.

In 2018, I started the Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast to conduct interviews with Christian influencers from all walks of life and to play their interviews on the radio station. (The KCR Podcast has its own time slot on Evangelism Radio)!
We now have over 1600 episodes and almost 1100 interviews (in just over 6 years).

Looking out at the future of online Christian media, I noticed there was no viable platforms that catered only to the Christian podcast market.

In 2023, we launched a networking platform called, "FaithCasters" which connects "Great Christian podcasters with Great Christian Guests!" This helps to promote the work you do through podcast interviews! Check it out at https://FaithCaster.org

We recently launched "FaithCaster Academy" which serves as a training hub for ALL of our trainings (podcast training / speaker training / interview training, etc.). Members receive access to ALL of our training programs for one low, monthly membership fee. Members also receive FREE access to ALL of the LIVE trainings I conduct (1 or 2 per month) - while non-members have to pay to access the live trainings.

Between my podcast training program, conducting podcast interviews, appearing on other podcasts as guests, speaking at conferences (in person and virtually) and the podcast networking platform, I guess you could say “I’m all in” when it comes to podcasting and online media!

My total focus is to do all we can to assist you to “Get The Word Out” about your mission, services, products, ministry, books, business, etc.
