The Haniel HOW2 Podcast

A conversation featuring Matt and Daniel on coaching If leadership is all about enabling and developing the team to achieve outstanding performance - wouldn't every great leader then be a great coach as well? This is the fundamental question for Matt and Daniel on this episode. Picking up the conversation from the last episode on grit, they start with the need for coaching. Cause the piece that differentiates us from humanity 30, 50 or 100 years ago, is not our human capability that evolved, but our progress in all scientific and practical fields coupled with improved education, teaching and coaching. So, for our personal growth a coach is essential to accelerate, to have another pair of eyes and ears and the feedback that we need to improve. If you are not convinced of the need for coaching or for having a coach yourself, then listen to this episode!

A conversation featuring Svenja from Haniel together with Matt and Daniel as they delve into the topic of "strategy" As the first guest on the HOW2 Podcast in 2024, Svenja Otten joined Daniel and Matt, a guest that for a long time was on their wish list. Svenja is the Head of Strategy within Haniel and together with her Matt (and Daniel, who speaks up after minute 18 for the first time) discuss what's the essence of Strategy. Why does everyone need a strategy or a plan? What makes strategy work or "being strategic" difficult? And how can strategy build confidence? We had great fun and learning - enjoy the episode!

A conversation about learning, development journeys and the enkelfähig Academy In the first episode, Matt and Thomas talk about the enkelfähig academy, Thomas own learning journey, about teaching as a leader, writing books, the impostor syndrome and much more. Make sure you listen until the end, it's worth it!

A conversation between Matt and Daniel as they are reflecting upon their thoughts and feelings about Christmas Here it is - our Christmas special. What's not so special are the speakers on this episodes, because Matt and Daniel keep it between themselves for this episode. They both share things that stand out for them when thinking about Christmas and pulling from these thoughts - what could we take away in our everyday life from it.

A conversation between Matt and Daniel on the Peter Principle Ever wondered why some leaders just can't seem to get it right? Join us as we dive deep into the timeless concept of the Peter Principle, which suggests that employees are promoted based on their success in previous roles until they reach a level where they are incompetent. Inspired by the work of Dr. Lawrence J. Peter from the 1960s, this principle still resonates in today's corporate world.
