15. Be Aware of the Influence You Already Have As a Leader

Season 1 · Episode 15

Tuesday, January 18, 2022 • Duration 25:19

Unless you live in 100% isolation in Outer Mongolia with no internet, it's highly likely you impacted someone else today. And you probably haven't any clue when, how or who.

What if I said, you already have influence? In fact, you already impacted someone today but you didn’t see it. Someone noticed you - and it might be for reasons you never thought of.

The question dear reader is not ‘If’ you impact, it is ‘how’.

In this episode I share what influence really is, and 5 ways you impact people every day without realising it.

13. Your presence is the best gift

Season 1 · Episode 13

Sunday, December 12, 2021 • Duration 03:03

A short announcement from me.

Being present with people, in this crazy world full of constant bleeps and distractions is one of the hardest things to do.

To be in that moment, to really give someone your whole attention is invaluable. If you want to have impact then that really is the way to go.

Because every communication is really about how you make others feel, and that in turn will help you feel incredibly confident.

Your presence is one of the most valuable commodities in the world.
