SPT83-Guest-Kris Langworthy-StoryPower TV-1 of 3 - Storypower TV

J. Loren Norris kicks off the episode with his trademark gratitude, urging listeners to smash the subscribe button and reminding us that every interaction is a chance to spark curiosity. He welcomes returning guest Chris Langworthy, a self‑described catalyst who loves standing beside people who feel uncertain, helping them uncover their “five loaves and two fish” and reconnect with the purpose God placed in them.The conversation quickly pivots to a cultural observation: instant‑delivery expectations have rewired our patience. Norris recounts a recent stay in rural Minnesota where a meal arrived within an hour, a speed that feels alien to his hometown. He draws a parallel to workplace dynamics—just as we expect food on demand, employees now expect immediate recognition. When that appreciation is missing, turnover spikes faster than any salary cut.Langworthy shares the origins of the “Power of PDA” (Public Displays of Appreciation), a program that once terrified HR departments but proved that genuine acknowledgment outweighs paychecks. He cites research showing that under‑appreciation, not low wages, drives most resignations. The duo explains the Attitude Hack model: thought + feeling = attitude, and stresses that the language “I appreciate you” must be spoken sincerely to rewire that equation.The hosts weave faith into the narrative, quoting Dr. Tracy Mitchell on imagination as humanity’s most divine feature and warning that AI may be stealing that creative spark. They envision leadership as a partnership—God, the leader, and the team co‑creating a culture where each person feels seen, heard, and valued.Listeners are invited to explore Storypower Academy’s coaching resources, hear a testimonial from Christina Knowles about the Storypower Masterclass, and consider how simple, intentional appreciation can transform both personal growth and organizational health.
