The Dangerous Habit Every Leader Hides Behind (And How to Stop)

Are you unintentionally sabotaging your team’s trust and performance? Every leader hides—and the hardest part is that it often looks like your greatest strength.

Whether you hide behind toxic positivity ("We're fine"), constant busyness, talking too much, or extreme independence, masking your challenges under pressure isolates you and prevents your team from addressing real problems before it's too late.

In this video, Dr. Michael Broom breaks down the common patterns of executive hiding, the hidden organizational costs of emotional armor, and practical steps to build authentic leadership, increase self-awareness, and lead with vulnerability that drives real results.

Why Smart Leaders Love Resistance (And How to Use It)

When someone on your team pushes back, folds their arms, or says this won't work, what is your immediate reaction? Most leaders treat pushback as disloyalty or an obstacle to overcome. But what if that pushback contains the exact piece of information that protects your plan from failing?

In this video, Dr. Michael Broom shares a powerful leadership lesson learned over nearly 50 years of executive coaching. He explains why capable leaders often miss critical warnings, how ego and culture turn useful feedback into perceived attacks, and why resistance isn't an obstacle—it's vital information.

Discover the 3 practical steps to handle pushback like a top leader:

Slow Down & Pause: Break the 3-second reflex reaction to defend or dismiss.

Inquire Deeply: Look past the initial objection to find the real concern underneath.

Think Systemically: Recognize when personal pushback is actually pointing to a broken organizational process.

Stop defending your plans and start building better ones by turning resistance into your greatest asset.

If this video gave you something to think about, leave a comment with which practice is hardest for you (Pause, Inquire, or System), and don't forget to like and subscribe for the final video on leadership equity!

Why People Ignore Your Advice (The 6 Channels of Influence)

Have you ever made a perfectly logical, well-reasoned argument, only to have the other person completely ignore you? It’s not because they didn't understand, and it's not because you were wrong. Something else happened.

In this video, Dr. Michael Broom breaks down nearly 50 years of leadership experience to answer a crucial question: Why does your power and persuasion work on some people but fail completely with others?

The truth is, influence doesn’t travel through the air—it travels through specific channels of connection. Influence is never something you do to people; it is a choice they allow. If you are pushing through a channel that someone has closed, you aren't influencing—you are just applying pressure, which creates resistance.

Discover the 6 distinct channels of social power (built on the foundational psychology of French and Raven):

Authority & Position
Coercion
Reward
Expertise
Attraction
Group Affiliation

Learn how to stop forcing open locked doors and instead accurately read your audience to find the exact channel that is already open. If you want to become a truly effective leader and master the art of communication, this perspective shift changes everything.

You are not as present as you think you are—and this is one of the most overlooked problems in leadership, communication, and human behavior.
In this video, Dr. Michael Broom explores the gap between being physically visible and truly being present in conversations, leadership, and relationships.
Many leaders believe they are listening—but in reality, they are preparing responses, managing reactions, or mentally moving ahead of the conversation. This creates a silent disconnect that affects trust, engagement, and performance.
You will learn:
The psychology of presence vs attention
Why most leaders are not truly listening
The difference between visibility and presence
How “active listening” can become performance, not truth
Why real presence disrupts people at first
How to become fully present in leadership conversations
True leadership begins when you stop performing attention and start actually receiving people.

You are not as present as you think you are—and this is one of the most overlooked problems in leadership, communication, and human behavior.
In this video, Dr. Michael Broom explores the gap between being physically visible and truly being present in conversations, leadership, and relationships.
Many leaders believe they are listening—but in reality, they are preparing responses, managing reactions, or mentally moving ahead of the conversation. This creates a silent disconnect that affects trust, engagement, and performance.
You will learn:
The psychology of presence vs attention
Why most leaders are not truly listening
The difference between visibility and presence
How “active listening” can become performance, not truth
Why real presence disrupts people at first
How to become fully present in leadership conversations
True leadership begins when you stop performing attention and start actually receiving people.

For many leaders, the hardest part isn’t knowing what to do — it’s managing what happens inside them under pressure.

This playlist is for leaders who want to lead with more clarity, steadiness, and real influence in those moments.

I’m an organization development psychologist, and over many years of working with leaders, teams, and organizations, I’ve learned that leadership is shaped as much by the person in the role as by the tools they use.

Because leadership is not just about managing tasks and people — it’s about how you use yourself within real human systems.

The goal is not perfection. It is greater awareness, better choices, and leadership that helps people do honest, effective work together.

If that is the kind of leader you want to become, this playlist is for you!

Things to Think About ... for a Fascinating Life

Most people don’t struggle because they lack information — they struggle because they are caught in patterns they don’t fully see.

Why we turn information into subconscious commands

The difference between having "no choice" and avoiding uncomfortable consequences

A simple question to ask yourself to break autopilot thinking

Why You Give In To Temptation (And How to Make It Stop)

Ever find yourself scrolling through your phone late at night, watching random videos when you know you should be asleep? Or reaching for snacks you aren't actually hungry for? We usually blame a lack of willpower, discipline, or self-control. But what if the real problem isn't what you think?

In this video, Dr. Michael Broom shares a profound psychological shift after nearly 50 years of helping people understand human behavior. He proposes a startling truth: Your temptations are actually trying to help you.

Temptation is never random; it always has a purpose. Every bad habit or distraction is a clumsy, impatient attempt to meet a very real, legitimate human need—whether that's a need for rest, comfort, connection, safety, or escaping uncertainty.

Discover the two main categories of temptation:

Temptations trying to protect a relationship (like staying silent to "keep the peace").

Temptations trying to protect you and change how you feel (like scrolling or procrastination to escape discomfort).

Stop fighting the behavior while ignoring the need that gave birth to it. Learn the two simple questions you can ask yourself today to break the cycle, stop relying purely on willpower, and finally strip temptation of its power.

Stop making excuses is one of the most important shifts in personal growth, psychology, and emotional intelligence.
In this video, we explore the psychology of excuses, self-deception, and why people often avoid full responsibility for their actions.
Many excuses are not completely unconscious—we often know we are shaping a version of the truth that protects our ego and self-image. But this protection comes at a cost: reduced personal accountability and loss of control over change.
You will learn:
Psychology of excuses and self-deception
Why smart people make excuses
Difference between blame and responsibility
How victim mentality develops
How to build a personal accountability mindset
How real life change begins with ownership
The key idea is simple:
When you stop avoiding responsibility, you regain agency over your life.
If you are interested in self-awareness, discipline, mindset shift, and human behavior psychology, this video will help you rethink how you respond to failure and discomfort.

Stop Making Excuses — The Psychology of Self-Deception Explained

Center for Human Systems Develops Strong Leaders May 13, 2026 3:00 pm

Most of us are not struggling because we lack information—we are often caught in behavioral patterns we cannot clearly see from inside our own lives.
Welcome to Things to Think About, a reflective series about human behavior, psychology, relationships, emotional patterns, and the hidden structures that shape everyday life.
In this introduction, Dr. Michael Broom explains the purpose of the series: to slow down, observe more honestly, and understand why we repeat certain patterns—especially under pressure.

You will explore:
Human behavior and emotional patterns
Why people repeat life cycles
Self-awareness and reflective thinking
Relationships and pressure responses
Psychology of everyday life
Conscious living and personal growth
If you have ever wondered why you react the way you do, this series is designed to help you see more clearly—and that clarity is where change begins.

Are You Truly Giving… Or Expecting Something in Return?

Center for Human Systems Develops Strong Leaders April 11, 2026 1:00 pm

Many marriages don’t go stale because love disappears. They go stale because familiarity becomes assumption—and assumption replaces curiosity.
In this video, Dr. Michael Broom explains why it’s actually good that you don’t fully know your spouse. Couples often stop seeing the living person beside them and start relating to the story they’ve built in their minds. The result? Flatness, predictability, and a quiet loss of connection.
💡 What You’ll Learn:
Why being familiar with someone isn’t the same as truly seeing them
How assumptions silently flatten long-term relationships
Why attention and curiosity are the real keys to intimacy
How to keep discovering your spouse as they are right now
A great marriage isn’t built on having your partner fully figured out—it’s built on the willingness to keep noticing, stay curious, and keep learning about the living person in front of you.
Timestamps:
00:00 – Some marriages go stale quietly
00:39 – When familiarity becomes assumption
01:56 – The difference between knowing and seeing
03:10 – Why “too known” flattens a marriage
04:41 – The stories we assign to each other
06:26 – One of the quiet tasks of marriage

Discussion: Dealing with Uncertainty – Insights from Lt. Col. Jerre Hansbrough & Dr. Michael Broom

In this thought-provoking conversation, Lt. Col. Jerre Hansbrough and Dr. Michael Broom explore the challenges of leadership in uncertain and constantly changing environments.

Lt. Col. Hansbrough reflects on his military experience, highlighting the importance of flexibility, resilience, and maintaining a clear sense of purpose even in the face of chaos. Dr. Broom, a leadership expert, builds on this by examining the psychological and emotional aspects of leadership—how leaders manage their own uncertainty while also instilling confidence in their teams.

Together, they offer practical insights on decision-making under pressure, fostering a culture of trust and adaptability, and building leadership skills that can withstand the test of time.

If you’re a manager, you know this anger: you’re accountable for outcomes… but you don’t control all the inputs.

Anger isn’t the problem. Unskilled anger is. It leaks as tone, sarcasm, or blame.

Next time you’re angry, ask three questions:
What happened? (facts)
What does it threaten? (value)
What do I need? (request, boundary, decision)

If you can’t name what you need, your anger will try to take it—usually as control.

Anger is a signal, not a strategy. Turn heat into clarity.

You can be excellent at managing a product, service, or team — and still struggle as a leader.
Managing is about control, execution, and optimization.
Leading is about direction, culture, influence, and alignment.
If you’ve recently shifted from managing to leading and it feels harder than expected, you’re not failing — you’re evolving.
The real shift isn’t more answers.
It’s a new mindset.
👉 Let go of control.
👉 Step into influence.
🎥 Watch the full video to understand the complete leadership transformation.
