What personal values guide your actions, and how do you ensure that your behaviors consistently reflect these values?
This episode focuses on the concept of psychological flexibility and its critical role in shaping behaviors, actions, and decisions. Perry offers insights on how to improve leadership potential through specific steps and the overall philosophy that underpins personal growth.
Psychological flexibility is introduced as a six-step process, crucial for anyone looking to lead effectively.
Top Takeaways
Psychological flexibility involves six steps: acceptance, detachment from thoughts, being present-focused, becoming the observing self, values clarification, and enactment.
Acceptance in psychological flexibility: embracing reality and feedback without resistance.
Observing thoughts without getting entangled in them. Helps in maintaining emotional equilibrium and focused decision-making.
The existentialism concept is that individuals define themselves through actions. Empowers making conscious choices and challenging inherent beliefs.
Beliefs and behaviors are deeply interconnected. Addressing and evolving underlying beliefs are essential for meaningful behavioral change.
The Freedom Framework Involves exploration, experimentation, and evolution to continually update biases and beliefs. And, it encourages a proactive approach to personal growth.
A growth mindset embraces failure as a learning opportunity. Outward changes in behavior reflect internal learning and adaptability.
The importance of giving positive feedback effectively without using "but," which can undermine the message. And managing feedback carefully to avoid cognitive biases and miscommunication.
Examine and question long-held beliefs to see if they still serve oneself and others. Beliefs shaped by upbringing and experiences often go unchallenged.
Identify limiting beliefs, seek new perspectives, practice mindfulness, and self-reflection. Continuous self-exploration and efforts toward personal growth and leadership potential.

Perry Maughmer believes the world deserves better leadership; that in every human interaction there is the opportunity to either build others up or tear them down; and that leadership is the choice we make in those moments.
These beliefs led Perry to create the Potential Leader Lab. He wanted to offer those who share his beliefs the space and safety to explore transformative ideas, experiment with new behaviors, and evolve into the leaders they were meant to be and that the world needs.
This is a framework he has used again and again with his Vistage peer advisory groups and companies like Turn-Key Tunneling, Convergint, Haughn & Associates, I Am Boundless, Ketchum & Walton, LSP Technologies, and Ahlum & Arbor.
Perry lives and works on the shores of Buckeye Lake in Ohio, in the mountains of northwest Georgia, and on the beach in Anna Maria, Florida with his amazingly creative wife Lisa. They have 2 rescue dogs and are intermittently visited by their 3 wonderful children throughout the year. Perry & Lisa are living life in crescendo and focused on exploring,...

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
