A personal glimpse into an international HR leadership role: hunger for adventure, empowering others and adapting to the challenges of 2023

Season 2 · Episode 54

Wednesday, January 18, 2023 • Duration 26:00

This episode is a rare and honest window into the world of international leadership. Eva Lundahl, an international HR leader specialising in talent acquisition, joins me for an initial conversation about her career journey, achievements, her motivation and the challenges along the way as well as her approach to managing team members and helping them to achieve their potential and their place in the team.

In the second half, she talks to the current challenges in 2022/3: recruitment and retention in international organisations and the need to adjust to the cultural shift we're seeing after COVID and communicate the wider benefits to joining a company to the market.

Eva is both visionary and pragmatic: tune in to be inspired and get her precious advice!

About Eva:
Eva is a Swedish national with 25+ years of experience in HR across multiple industries such as pharma biotech, IT/Telecom, Outsourcing/Consulting Services, Mining, Automotive and most recently in the Energy Sector at GE Renewables.

Throughout her career she has been a variety of roles, although mainly in HR with a specialization in Recruitment, she’s also managed the change connected to large HR & TA system implementations such as SAP, Taleo, Cornerstone & WD.

She’s built and managed recruitment teams and models varying from in-house, outsourced, off-shored and hybrid in large multi-national organisations both regionally & globally. Her motivation lies in being able to leverage her experience and help organisations build and adapt their TA models to the needs and context of the business.

There is no one best model, but a multitude of variations to be considered to support business growth. Enabling her team to have access to the right number and level of resources, tools & slick processes are elements she looks at when considering the set-up. Supporting her team, helping them to develop and identify their strengths and weaknesses to complement each other on their journey is what keeps her going.

Understanding neuroscience, understanding effectiveness: taking coaching to the next level

Season 2 · Episode 53

Wednesday, January 11, 2023 • Duration 25:22

Coaching can feel like a black box! Why does it work? How can asking questions help someone change the way they think and behave? Exploring the neuroscience behind transformation and effectiveness is important not only for coaches, but also for leaders who are embarking on coaching to make the most of a coaching programme and even take it further for themselves.

My guest today is the leader of the Advanced Diploma that I'm studying right now: Ann Betz. Ann explains why she was drawn to neuroscience and how she has used it to take her coaching to a different level, understanding what we need to be truly effective and creative: an appropriate amount of stimulation, an ability to regulate emotions and to allow our brains to function with flexibility and adaptability by understanding the different components of the brain. The best leaders are those who use those parts of their brains to be flexible to communicate the big picture with empathy and to provide detail and structure: to zoom in and out, using both sides of the brain effectively to communicate well.

Ann Betz, CPCC, PCC, MNTC, is the co-founder of BEabove Leadership and an international speaker and trainer on the intersection of neuroscience, coaching and human transformation. In 2011, Ann studied neuroscience at the graduate level, and using this fascinating research, in 2012 co-developed (and is senior leader for) BEabove Leadership’s popular training program for advanced coaches: Neuroscience, Consciousness and Transformational Coaching. This program has been offered in-person worldwide and is now available in an in-depth virtual format.

Ann was a faculty member and served as the neuroscience consultant to The Coaches Training Institute (CTI) for many years. She provides neuroscience, leadership and coaching consulting to many other corporations and non-profits, including the International Coach Federation. A certified professional coach for 20 years, Ann is the author of a groundbreaking white paper on brain research and coaching.

The New Weird: Back to the Office

Season 2 · Episode 45

Thursday, February 17, 2022 • Duration 11:13

It's an interesting and pivotal time. A lot of people are returning to the office (Feb 2022) after working at home for almost two years. Opinions are mixed: some are looking forward to it, others are anxious, many expect to keep the level of flexibility they have grown to appreciate, whilst some are expecting to go back to "normal".

What are the challenges for employees? What could organisations do to make this transition easier and make the workplace a better place in the process?

In this episode, I talk about the need to embrace this opportunity to put employees at the heart of the debate and make working life a better experience.

What do you think? Do let me know!

Reach for your star: with passion, no limits and creating a space for leaders to grow

Season 2 · Episode 44

Tuesday, February 8, 2022 • Duration 24:11

It was a huge privilege to have Julien Tornare, the CEO of Zenith, join me for this episode. We talked about how he has rejuvenated a global luxury brand by bringing an entrepreneurial spirit, empathy and a vision of having "no limits".

He is an inspiring leader who shows great humility, an expansive vision and infectious energy and has transformed the company in 5 years, culminating in the recent launch of their new watch: DEFY Skyline that is stunning and has attracted the attention of the media worldwide in the last few weeks.

Tune in to hear what it means to Julien to "reach your star", Zenith's tagline and a sentiment that infuses his work and that of his team. Be ready to take notes - this is a lesson in global leadership that leads to great results!

About Julien

Julien Tornare, born in 1972 in Geneva (Switzerland), is the CEO of Zenith. Active for nearly two decades in the watchmaking sector, he initially worked at Raymond Weil for two years before spending 17 years at Vacheron Constantin: first as market Head for Switzerland, subsequently as the Brand’s US Director, and finally as Managing Director for Asia-Pacific.

At the helm of Zenith since 2017, Tornare has brought the brand back into the forefront of watchmaking. By rejuvenating the products as well as the brand’s communication and image, Zenith is once again at the vanguard of ground-breaking innovation.

In spite of its history dating back to the 19th century and being part of the LVMH group, Julien has injected his entrepreneurial spirit into Zenith, allowing the brand to revisit its unique history of innovation while laying the foundation for the future of Swiss watchmaking.

The secret to enabling high performance and greater wellbeing in the workplace

Season 2 · Episode 42

Thursday, January 20, 2022 • Duration 13:21

"High performance" and "wellbeing" can feel like opposing goals for leaders and organisations.

In this episode, we look at how to reframe these and instead see them as different sides of the same coin. This allows us to move forward and take a different perspective: can we find a solution to both parts of the equation?

Tune in to find out why self-awareness is a vital part of the puzzle.

Reducing and preventing burnout in the workplace: equipping leaders to help others and themselves

Season 2 · Episode 41

Friday, January 14, 2022 • Duration 32:12

Following on from a previous podcast with Anna Anderson, where we looked at wellbeing, I’m delighted that Anna Pinkerton accepted the invitation to join me for a conversation around burnout in the workplace and what organisations can do to address it.

We know that burnout was already a problem before the pandemic and studies have shown that it has substantially increased in the last 2 years, which is not a surprise. Now we’re seeing that increasing numbers of employees are considering leaving their jobs and in the DDI 2021 study of leadership, burnout is cited as a major reason driving people to consider changing their jobs and even their careers.

Anna talked to us about her approach to burnout and in particular to what she has termed, "burnout trauma". Tune in to find out what she means by that and her advice to leaders who wish to minimise the risk to themselves and their organisations.

To pre-order her book: MyKindaLife.org

About Anna:

Anna has 28 years of experience in psychotherapy, consultancy and training and is a leading expert in post-trauma stress work.

She specialises in working with senior executives, leaders of organizations, and entrepreneurs who have experienced a traumatic event, or are suffering from the debil²itating effects of accumulated long-term stress.

She has written a number of books and resources and she has a new one coming out in April of this year called: My Kinda Life. She has devised a leadership development method where she helps leaders discover and improve their inner relationship with themselves, to ensure this kindness and solidarity is projected into their working practices.

How to make effective goals that take you to the next level

Season 2 · Episode 40

Friday, January 7, 2022 • Duration 17:33

Are you someone who loves or hates setting personal goals at the beginning of the year?

Before becoming a coach, I used to set pretty similar goals each year, with pretty similar results. One year, I set a goal to get fit, joined an expensive gym and ran on the treadmill exactly four times....

But there are some keys to setting effective goals and most importantly to implementing and even exceeding them. Tune in to get some practical and actionable tips and start your year with expansive goals that you can't wait to get working on!

If this is something you would like to develop further, join us as my guest for our one hour webinar on the 24th January: Plan your year in leadership! What's next for you? Click on the link to reserve your place: it's free, live and places are limited!

Looking forward to seeing you!
Ann
