Leading with integrity: Leadership talk

Ep.44: Learning about leadership from Star Trek & other popular culture

For those who know me, you will understand how excited I was about recording this episode. It's one where two of my great passions collide: Star Trek and Leadership. Joined by guest, leadership expert, consultant and founder of the Starfleet Leadership Academy, @Jeff Akin. At some point we fell into a wormhole and/or temporal rift and completely lost track of time debating which is the best Star Trek episode/Captain/film.... but I'm pleased to say we did make it back onto the topic of leadership.Jeff has some great insights to share and this one is well worth a listen. If you'd like to learn more about the Starfleet Leadership Academy then check out his website: https://www.starfleetleadership.academy/ If you're interested in learning more about how to lead with integrity, head over to our website at https://live.leadernotaboss.co.uk/free If you enjoy this episode please take a few minutes to leave a review, every bit of feedback is appreciated and helpful.

Are you fulfilled at work? As a leader? As a business-owner?

It's not a loaded question, but it is an important one. This week on Leading with Integrity, I'll be chatting with Business Coach, Author, and Entrepreneur Robin Waite, who shares his journey from running a marketing agency to becoming a business coach. Key themes of the conversation include the importance of personal fulfillment, the challenges of corporate life, and the need for a supportive work environment.

The discussion touches on the effectiveness of corporate well-being initiatives, the potential benefits of a four-day work week, and the limitations of the traditional education system in preparing individuals for success in business (and life - and I'll confess to you now, I may get on my soapbox a bit here!!).

We also explore common mistakes that lead to business failures, why effective business planning is crucial; and what that can look like - it's not always a flash slide deck or 400-tab financial model. Leadership lessons are shared, we talk about trust and autonomy in management, and some inspiring examples of effective leadership.

It's a big conversation about big topics and there's some vital lessons & advice here for leaders and founders alike.

What does resilience mean to you? In the latest episode of Leading with Integrity, I'm joined by guest Catherine Hicks for the second in a mini-series on resilience and building resilient teams.

We'll be chatting the themes of leadership, resilience, and burnout, particularly in the context of the pandemic and from Catherine's own journey as a design consultant and leader. There's a focus on the importance of service-oriented leadership and the need for compassion in the workplace, the nuances of resilience, the challenges of maintaining mental health, and the importance of setting boundaries in a demanding work culture.

We share personal experiences that have shaped each of our leadership styles, including the role of resilience and the impact of supportive management. Catherine talks about her experiences navigating chaotic work environments, the role of stress in personal and team growth, and the importance of fostering a culture of respect and open communication within teams.

Catherine has a pretty unique perspective on resilience, and some great leadership lessons too.

This week I'm speaking with HR Professional, Katie Howard, who's on a mission to put the FUN back into HR. Katie shares some of the wild stories, as well as some enlightening and entertaining ones from a career in HR spanning government, corporate, and consulting. We talk about the red flags to watch out for in companies and in leaders, the pace of change, what great leadership looks like. One of the big topics that we discovered a mutual interest in was the changes in work and workplaces resulting from generational shifts, and this became a bit of a theme of the episode as we explore the differences, trends and stereotypes of Gen X, Millennials and later, and what the opportunities and challenges involved are. Katie had some insightful thoughts on how leaders need to be able to speak to every generation if they're to successfully maintain a functioning team.
