A powerful conversation about leadership, resilience, compassion, and what truly matters in the end.

From Certainty to Seeking Exploration - with Margaret Heffernan

Saison 1 · Épisode 9

jeudi 14 décembre 2023 • Durée 37:55

In this episode of Ambition. Unleashed. Sara Moore and Guest host Justin Temblett-Wood look into how leaders can take an approach of seeking exploration over the need for certainty. A willingness to believe in planning, but not plans, will free leaders from self-imposed prisons that restrict their ability to act and react in uncertain times. It requires bravery to step away from apparent certainty, and insight to understand that certainty is built on context and interpretation rather than reality. If leaders can throw off these shackles and embrace exploration and experimentation, then they will be well-equipped to prepare for, and benefit from, the unexpected and thrive rather than just survive in volatile times.About the guestToday’s guest, Dr Margaret Heffernan produced programmes for the BBC for 13 years.

From Managing Problems to Embracing Setbacks - with Sylke Poeling

Saison 1 · Épisode 8

mardi 28 novembre 2023 • Durée 54:11

In this episode of Ambition. Unleashed. Sara explores how leaders can embrace setbacks and ultimately create a culture where failure is productive. Leaders are beginning to come to terms with the fact that setbacks are inevitable. ‘It’s okay to fail’ is a good starting point, but that attitude alone is not enough to reconnect us to the sense of high possibility that a breakthrough commitment requires. In principle, we know that if we’re going to take a car on the road, we can’t drive it forever without needing new parts. Too often, though, we’re still letting breakdowns lower our expectations of how far we can travel. When the wheels fall off in our organisation we’re faced with a choice; we can go down the path of least resistance – ignoring the problem, justifying it or assigning blame - ultimately lowering our expectations of what’s possible. Or we can acknowledge the breakdown, declare it and resolve it with the right people.In this episode meet someone who has dedicated their professional life to facing setbacks to deliver world-class medicines to patients all over the world - Sylke PoehlingAbout the guestSlyke Poehling is Senior Vice President and global head of Therapeutic Modalities for Research and Early Development at Roche. She is most definitely a curious scientist, systems and imaginative leader, who likes to thrive on activating people’s pioneering spirit to push the boundaries of drug discovery and expand the ‘druggable target space’. Sylke is a passionate champion for DEI, with a particular focus on gender parity for women in STEM and has nurtured and fostered the career advancement of key scientific talent and senior leaders.Show notes, links and further readingHBR article: Innovation Isn’t All Fun and Games — Creativity Needs Discipline (hbr.org)McKinsey article: Embracing the obligation to dissent | McKinseyBlog: Leadership Behaviours that Build Momentum from Breakdowns(achievebreakthrough.com)Blog: Getting comfortable with being uncomfortable (achievebreakthrough.com)Blog: Breakthrough Thinking Practice 8: Powerfully declare and resolve the inevitablesetbacks with the right people (achievebreakthrough.com)Blog: Creating a future of opportunity in a world of uncertainty (achievebreakthrough.com)Website: Organisational & People Development | Behaviour | Achieve Breakthrough

From Being a Victim to Choosing Agency

Saison 1 · Épisode 7

jeudi 7 septembre 2023 • Durée 50:01

In this episode of Ambition. Unleashed. Sara looks into how often we catch ourselves saying “things have gone well considering the circumstances”. Blaming circumstances, the competition, the people around you or even just bad luck are all indicators that a victim mindset is lurking. Victim is a bold word. We are not talking about victims of crime, or abuse, or health conditions – these are true victims with whom we must stand and support. The leaders’ victim mindset is the acceptance of a lack of agency. It is a trap that is all too easy to fall into. But agency is a choice, and we will discuss how you can start making this choice today.To look into this important shift, Sara met with Jo Corbishley, an improvement coach, TEDx speaker and author opening up about a very personal set of circumstances when she found out she was unable to have children. She is now the founder of a business that helps people of all ages to explore their value and embracing what we all offer the world despite what is thrown at you in life.Abou the guestSenior Leader and Identity Coach, Jo Corbishley, IS an authority on helping people to find out who they are so they can perform at their very best and find their place in life.Hitting 40 and finding out she couldn’t have children was a devastating blow to the previously successful businesswoman who believed that hard work and determination got you everywhere in life.Jo uses her own experience to help others find their place, passion, and purpose, helping her clients to feel alive on more. Jo works organisationally to support clients to find their competitive niche in the marketplace, build powerful teams and how to harness positive change in businesses, along with marrying this with her wealth of experience in project management. Jo juggles all this with running a farm of ever-expanding family of goats along with writing her wonderful children’s book: Sweet Haven Home and the Pony Who Wanted to Prance.Show notes, links and further readingWebsite: Jo Corbishley | TEDx Speaker| Improvement CoachAmazon: Sweet Haven Home and the Pony Who Wanted to PranceBlog: Are you really playing to win – or just trying to avoid losing?Blog: Your knitting is who you are, not what you doBlog: Why it's worth being 100% responsibleWebsite: Organisational & People Development | Behaviour | Achieve Breakthrough

From Preserving to Decoupling Identity - with Liberto Pereda

Saison 1 · Épisode 6

mardi 27 septembre 2022 • Durée 01:10:23

In this episode we introduce two profiles of human consciousness: “reactive” and “creative.” Todays world is calling for the ambitious to be less reactive and more creative in our way of “being". Seeing ourselves AS our identity versus simply HAVING an identity is often what gets in our way because if we are our identity we need to preserve it to survive instead of play full out.Wayne and Sara explore this topic with Liberto Perada to find out how we can make this sometimes-difficult separation, and why it is important to unleash the full potential of not only yourself but of everyone around you.Liberto is Managing Director of Leadership Circle Europe, and also founder and facilitator at the consultancy Kanvio (for vitality) working with clients all over the world. Liberto is passionate about evolving a world based on trust and personal power. Where challenges, are references, and not obstacles.

From “playing not to lose” to “playing to win” with Bob Anderson

Saison 1 · Épisode 5

jeudi 28 juillet 2022 • Durée 01:02:04

In this episode of Ambition. Unleashed. Sara and Wayne discuss the natural tension we all hold as humans between staying safe and striving for a bolder vision, mission or purpose. Lots of commentators talk about “leading with purpose”, but this is easier said than done. Striving for our true purpose often comes with inherent risk – livelihoods, relationships, our sense of identity, our ego. This leaves many of us “playing not to lose” versus “playing to win.” It can be toxic to the soul to only ever stay safe, but what can we do to bravely take steps towards living more purposefully?To help them answer this, Sara and Wayne sit down with Bob Anderson, a true pioneer in the field of leadership development and research. Bob has dedicated his career to exploring the intersections between leadership and personal mindset mastery and is the founder of The Leadership Circle Profile (LCP), an integrated and innovative leadership assessment tool used by Fortune 500 organisations to develop transformational and more conscious leaders.He's a very profound guy, and as a result their conversation was far reaching – but we encourage listeners to stay tuned, because the insights he offers are extraordinary.Bought to you by Achieve Breakthrough – a leadership development, transformational change, and workplace culture consultancy to Fortune 500 organisations.

Stop predicting, start declaring - with Neil Rodgers

Saison 1 · Épisode 3

jeudi 12 mai 2022 • Durée 01:07:23

The mindset shift we explore this week is from “predicting the future” to “declaring the future.” Bold declarations are the foundation of great leadership and are hugely powerful. In the previous episode of Ambition. Unleashed. our hosts Sara Moore and Wayne Alexander helped listeners understand how they can make the shift from limited to unlimited possibility – to help you first identity a new future filled with possibility. But this is only the beginning. Declaring that possible future in a public arena will inspire, energise and enrol the world to help you deliver it, even if you don’t know exactly how you’re going to achieve it. Imagine declaring the future you want to happen instead of predicting what might happen. How would that change the way you approached your ambitions? Leadership is language and making a declaration is a creative act that uses precise, un-caveated terms to bring a possible future into being. Declarations need to be wholehearted and made publicly to those who will hold you to account – remember JFK’s declaration to get a “man on the moon before the decade was out”. True declarations are acts of bravery that put you and your ambitions at stake. And with the help of leading Executive Reinvention Coach and former Egg Online Banking Executive from its 90s/00s hey day – Neil Rodgers – Wayne and Sara explore the art and anatomy of making a powerful declaration.Bought to you by Achieve Breakthrough – a leadership development, transformational change, and workplace culture consultancy to Fortune 500 organisations.

Redefining ambition

Saison 1 · Épisode 1

jeudi 14 avril 2022 • Durée 09:16

Most people if asked to define an ambitious person would say something like “a person who knows what they want and where they’re going”, perhaps with a big, hairy, audacious goal in mind - probably motivated by money or notoriety. But Ambition is less about knowing where you’re going, but the size of the possibility you can see and would be willing to commit to for yourself and/or your business. This podcast is certainly for the self-identified ambitious, but it's also for those that feel they would like to grow the size of their ambition. In this first episode of Ambition. Unleashed. we introduce you to the mindset shifts we’re going to take you through over the next eight episodes. Mindset shifts we believe - without a doubt - are the essential foundations for helping you to identify and achieve your biggest, boldest most breakthrough ambitions.Bought to you by Achieve Breakthrough – a leadership development, transformational change, and workplace culture consultancy to Fortune 500 organisations.Hosted by Sara Moore and Wayne Alexander, both Strategic Leader Consultants at Achieve Breakthrough.Further readingBlog: Breakthrough Thinking Practice 1: Unhooking yourself from your assessmentsBlog: Getting comfortable being uncomfortableBlog: The Assumption RevolutionPlease email us with any questions, coaching you need or to share your personal breakthrough stories or aha moments as we guide you through the mindset shifts.Twitter: @Achieve_BT #AmbitionUnleashed
