The Leadership Lab – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Most leadership content wants to impress you. We'd rather be useful.

The Leadership Lab is a podcast by The Colour Works — and it's built around one belief: relatable beats impressive.

Because the most powerful leadership lessons don't come from people who've got it all figured out. They come from people who've made difficult decisions, changed their minds, got it wrong, and kept going anyway.

Each series, we take one element from our Leadership Periodic Table and put it under the microscope. We sit down with guests — leaders, thinkers, practitioners — and have the kind of conversations that don't usually make it into the highlight reel. The uncomfortable realisations. The moments of doubt. The things they wish someone had told them earlier.

Then the following week, it's just us. Our Lab Note episodes are where Luke Wiltshire and Lucy Pearson debrief what they heard, what resonated, what they'd push back on, and what it actually looks like in practice inside real organisations.

No frameworks sold here. No six-step models. No one pretending leadership is cleaner than it is.

Just honest conversations, genuine curiosity, and the belief that self-knowledge is the most underrated leadership tool there is.

The Leadership Periodic Table grows with every series — a living, evolving map of what it means to lead, built entirely from real conversations. Each guest leaves their mark on it.

New episodes every week, alternating between longer feature conversations and shorter Lab Notes.

Hosted by Luke Wiltshire and Lucy Pearson from The Colour Works.
