Good news is bad news delivered early, with Tech Exec Brett Wiskar

Épisode 66

lundi 21 octobre 2024 • Durée 42:18

No one likes bad news, but as a leader, it’s your responsibility to get ahead of it. When Brett Wiskar said during our interview, "Good news is bad news delivered early," it really resonated. Surprises are rarely welcome, and as leaders, it's our job not only to manage them but to stay ahead of them.

In this candid episode, I chat with Brett, a seasoned tech executive, about his rollercoaster leadership journey. Tune in to hear three impactful leadership lessons that have reshaped his approach—and could very well change yours too.

I’m saving the lightbulb moments for the episode, but here’s a glimpse of what Brett unpacks:

The crucial leadership skill most avoid (yes, it involves those uncomfortable conversations).
Why adaptability is more valuable than being right.
How to align your team for success.

Beyond the lessons, this episode offers a rare inside look at the life of an executive—his day-to-day challenges, the tough decisions, and what it truly takes to lead at the top. Add the podcast to your listen list to deep dive into the real-world experiences of a leader navigating change and innovation.

Leadership Styles Explained: Find Out How You Lead

Épisode 65

lundi 7 octobre 2024 • Durée 12:58

Today's episode is talking about what I believe is the most important first step in leadership - knowing your leadership style. Whether you're an aspiring leader, a new leader, someone who's been at it for a while or an absolute seasoned pro, you need to know what your natural leadership style is. So why is this important? Your leadership style is happening, whether you know about it or not. If you think about gravity, you do not need to know what gravity is to know that if you drop a pen, it will hit the ground. It's the same with your leadership style, whether you know what your leadership style is or not, it is happening. You have a natural style that you are doing in your leadership, whether you know about it or not. So best to know what it is.

In today's podcast episode, I'm talking about Goleman's six leadership styles, helping you to see your strengths and blind spots, and a free quiz to get some personalised feedback.

Today’s episode focuses on my recent dip in motivation and the science on how to get unstuck. Join me in learning three tips to bust a dip in motivation - the Motivation Myth, How to start (when you don’t feel like it), and task size.

How Grown-Ups Grow Up: Exploring Vertical Development with Dr. Alis Anagnostaki

Saison 1 · Épisode 52

mercredi 6 septembre 2023 • Durée 51:54

Welcome to today's leadership podcast episode, which marks the beginning of our exciting leadership interview series. In this series, we will be diving deep into the world of leadership by talking to leaders and specialists to shed light on the multifaceted concept of leadership.

Our first guest is none other than Dr. Alis Anagnostakis. Alis and I crossed paths in Spain and have collaborated on various projects throughout the years. Her expertise lies in the realm of Vertical Development, which essentially delves into how adults continue to "grow up" personally and professionally.

Here are some highlights from my conversation with Dr. Alis Anagnostakis:

Embracing Difficult Emotions: We discuss the power of embracing difficult emotions rather than suppressing them. Discover how curiosity can be the key to personal and professional growth.
"Growing Pains" in Adulthood: Alis shares a fascinating analogy involving her daughter's piano learning journey to explain the challenges and transformations that adults go through.
The Vertical Development Framework: Both Alis and I are certified in the Global Leadership Profile, and we explore how this framework can be a valuable tool in understanding and enhancing leadership capabilities.
Challenges for Expert-Level Leaders: We uncover the challenges that leaders at the Expert level may encounter when they personally do the work of their team (instead of leading the team).
A Personal Journey: I share a personal story of a life-altering event, my stroke, which became a defining moment in my leadership journey. We also delve into the science behind the emotional growth I experienced.
Overcoming Emotional Stuckness: how emotions can cloud our perspective, trapping us in a state of "stuckness," and discover strategies to navigate through such moments.

I hope you enjoy this enlightening and insightful first episode with Dr. Alis Anagnostakis. Stay tuned for more interviews with remarkable leaders and experts in the field of leadership.
If you’d like to explore your own level of Vertical Development, contact Alis or myself directly for leadership coaching and profile debriefs.What's Vertical Development (and what's Horizontal Development)?

Épisode 51

lundi 28 août 2023 • Durée 03:21

Ever feel like you're stuck dealing with those mind-numbing, everyday tasks that almost drive you to pull your hair out? Oh boy, I've been there too. Just the other day, I had this whole drama with the fridge at one of my investment properties. It just decided to throw in the towel, and guess who had to scramble to find a replacement? Yep, yours truly. Talk about a major headache!

And it's not just property woes—these pesky little things pop up at work too. You know the kind of stuff that doesn't really tap into your strengths but still needs to get done? The funny thing is, there are people out there who actually enjoy doing the things that drive you bonkers. Go figure!

So, how in the world can you hand off those not-so-great tasks that don't really match your skills (or genius zone), and make sure they get done right? Well, let me tell you, this episode is your golden ticket. You'll learn how to appreciate your own time, and most importantly, how to delegate like a pro. That way, you'll have some much-needed breathing space for yourself.

Caffeinated Leadership: Energising Underperformers (instead of firing them)

Saison 1 · Épisode 50

lundi 21 août 2023 • Durée 06:19

A delightful tale of my coffee machine woes and how professional tweaks can work wonders for your team.

Imagine me, sipping my morning elixir, when I realize it doesn't taste heavenly anymore. Panic sets in—are my taste buds betraying me? Have I become immune to caffeine? But then, it hits me like a caffeine rush—I've got a coffee machine emergency! Instead of splurging on a new machine, I decided to give my faithful companion one last shot. Off it goes to the coffee machine spa, and lo and behold, it comes back brewing heaven in a mug!

Now, let's talk about underperforming staff at work. We often consider firing and rehiring, but the cost of employee turnover is a real buzzkill. Lowered morale, decreased productivity, and the financial burden of recruiting and training—ouch!

By investing in leadership mentoring and targeted strategies, struggling team members can transform into superstars without breaking the bank. It's like giving them an espresso shot of motivation! Plus, embracing professional tweaks fosters a culture of growth and improvement.

So, fellow coffee aficionados and team leaders, let's caffeinate our team's performance! If you want to chat about optimizing your team, let's grab a virtual coffee. I offer team workshops and one-on-one mentoring to help you unleash your team's potential.

Remember, a little professional tweak can go a long way in brewing success. Check the show notes for more info. Here's to a strong and delicious team performance. Thanks for brewing with me!

That time I made my team member cry

Épisode 49

jeudi 17 août 2023 • Durée 03:20

An embarrassing story of my time as a new manager. Even as I’m recording it I can’t believe I’m sharing it with you. I was in my early twenties, I was confident and competent, but on the inside I was worried that they might notice that I'd never led a team before, and would I be good enough?

As a new leader, I thought it was my duty to deliver hard feedback. I thought tough love was the way to go, even when facing real challenges, because I believed honesty was what every team member desired. Then came a situation where a team member approached me with an issue. Without hesitation, I shared my unfiltered thoughts on the matter, adhering to the notion that effective leaders rule with an iron grip.

Listen to this episode to find out what unfolded and how my perspective has changed over time. This story holds valuable lessons about giving constructive feedback. I also want to invite you to a free online masterclass happening in August: "How To Give Feedback (that Doesn't Suck)." Together, we'll explore how to create a feedback-rich environment that paves the way for your team's success. Simply click the link in the show notes below to secure your spot.
