HR Oxygen Podcast
August 2, 2022

We've all heard of IQ.  Some of us know about EQ.  But what about PQ?  PQ stands for Positive Intelligence and it's a concept that can help you quiet negative voices in your head and enable you to make better decisions.  It also help you increase your self-confidence, emotional self-control, resilience, optimism, and empathy, while decreasing overwhelm, burnout, stress, and conflict.

If that sounds good to you, then please listen to this episode with our special guest Lei Comerford.  She is a coach who also facilitates the PQ program.  We talk about PQ and she even debriefs my assessment results so you can get a better sense of what this program does

HR Oxygen with Mack Munro - December 21, 2021

Most of us know the difference between right and left brain thinking, but there is actually a lot more to it!  Our guest today is an expert in the use of instruments and assessments that explore this idea.  Lei Comerford is a speaker, facilitator, consultant and coach who focuses a large part of her practice to improving communication skills through the use of the Herrmann Brain Dominance Instrument (HBDI).  We had a great conversation around this and how individual and team coaching can build on this tool to make you and your team more motivated and effective.

Organized Holistically with Dana LaRieal Morales - September 17, 2021

In this episode, I am speaking with Lei Comerford, who is a leadership coach, facilitator and learning and development consultant.  She helps others reach beyond their goals by helping them increase their self-awareness.  We really covered a number of different topics during this episode, from not knowing what she didn't know, even as a person coming from Corporate America to how she was able to get her name out there without having a formalized company.  

During our conversation we also talked about:

  • Her major transition and how it lead to her solopreneurship

  • The importance of your network and business development

  • The importance of getting a coach, even if you are a coach
