In this episode, I help you eliminate the activities that hinder your ability to be more strategic.
Here's the question:
"At my level, everyone talks about the importance of strategy. Which I love and I’m very comfortable with. I get it and I get that focus. What I’m not comfortable with is finding the time to do it apart from our annual offsite. What do you see other senior leaders do to make sure they don’t get lost in the weeds?"
The downshift of the weeds, the day-to-day transactional side of the business, will always have a stronger pull over the uplift of strategic-focused activities.
How do you free up both time and energy to focus on your future?
Join me in this episode as I guide you in identifying your personal "superpowers" and leveraging them to unlock newfound time and freedom for strategic pursuits.
Enjoy the episode and hope it helps.

Here's the question:
“I now have 12 direct reports and am totally committed to their development. I'm relatively new in the role and inherited the team from a GM who didn't have a lot of focus on development. Our organisation has a comprehensive system to identify development needs and then offers a variety of options to meet them. However, I’d love to get going straight away. Any tips or ideas to gain traction?"
If you're just discussing work in progress in your regular one-on-one meetings then you're missing one of the biggest opportunities to make a major difference to the quality of your relationships and the development of your people.
Join me as I unpack the three major components of a great one-on-one meeting. This simple technique will take your leadership, relationships and results to a whole new level AND you can start using it TODAY.
Enjoy the episode and hope it helps.

In this episode, we touch on how much of your feelings you should share with your team when you're feeling low.
Here's the question:
“How do you lead with authenticity while feeling low yourself as a leader? How do you share how you feel with your team and show vulnerability without bringing everyone down with you or making them feel unsure about your resilience or leadership?”
Do you just cover up your feelings and soldier on, play "rah-rah", or collapse into a screaming heap? Cause that's what you feel like doing.
Like most things in life, it's a balance. Being "real" doesn't mean you necessarily share all of yourself, all at once.
Strategic disclosure is often the key.
Enjoy the episode and hope it helps.

The biggest and most important role we can take on in our lives as leaders, if we choose to, is that of a parent.
I recently had the great pleasure of chatting with Dina Cooper from Parent as Leader. Dina is a Transformational Parent Coach and Author of the book Smart Parenting: How to Develop Your Child's Mindset, Resilience and Courage for the Future of Work.
Dina shares such beautiful words of wisdom, wrapped in her tender and heartfelt commitment to helping you to be the best "parent as leader" you can be.
We discuss topics like:
- The importance of reflecting on how you are showing up for your - kids and some of the guilt or shame you may carry as a parent.
- What are your values as a family?
- If you have a coparent, do your values align?
- How to build resilient kids who learn not to take rejection personally in a world that can, at times, be quite cruel.
- How to help them find their purpose and superpowers.
- And much more!
You can learn more about Dina and her work by visiting her website: https://www.dinacooper.com.au/quiz
I also hugely recommend her book Smart Parenting: How to Develop Your Child's Mindset, Resilience and Courage for the Future of Work (now available via Amazon): https://www.amazon.com/Smart-Parenting-Develop-Mindset-Resilience/dp/1983102067

--------------------
In this episode, I give three tips to help your people navigate through challenging times. Times of massive uncertainty and complexity.
Here's the question:
"We have just been through a major restructure and there have been some redundancies. No more are anticipated, yet the ‘survivors’ are feeling very uncertain about their job security. I can’t, hand on heart tell them that their roles are secure. I don’t want to BS then. What can I say that’s real and can help?"
As a leader, what you say counts!
Your people need to hear these three simple but powerful messages and they need to hear them from you.
They'll make a tangible difference on engagement and your team's determination to keep going irrespective of the many challenges outside of everyone's control.
