Welcome to Episode 9 of The Leadership Detectives.
In this episode, we take a deep dive into the concept of "failure".
"Failure" has become a dirty word in the world of leadership, and it has been subjected to a reframing of context.
Is it better to fail often? To aim high, even if you don't reach? And just because you fail, does that make you a failure?

In this episode, we’re joined by Chris Hunter QGM, author, bomb disposal expert, and former British Army officer.
And when it comes to topics like fear of failure there are few better placed than Chris who has had to view failure as meaning someone losing their life.
We start by talking about why Chris joined the Military and the words that his father gave him on his death bed that shaped his life. Looking at leadership, we break down lessons he learned in the Military such as knowing what your boss is trying to achieve and having the ability to influence the greater good. Chris gives us invaluable insight on a great example of leadership that he’s had when advising on the 7/7 London bombings and on dealing with the fear of failure.

Welcome to Episode 7 of The Leadership Detectives.
In this episode, we look back on some of our recent interviews in order to double down on some of the most salient points our guests have made.
We highlight the importance of authenticity and why it is becoming even more vital in the modern leadership world.
We also discuss why humility is crucial for a leader to inspire those around them, delving into why "being soft" is often much braver than the "old school" management styles we may have grown up with.

In this episode, we’re joined by Jay Trestain, Global Offerings & Big Deal Leader at IBM iX.
She’s been with IBM for 15 years, however, this episode takes a look at how leaders can lead when they themselves are going through personal adversity.
Jay’s story is both humbling and an incredible story of success in the face of huge adversity as we get into how she’s battled the loss of her mother and her husband’s terminal diagnosis, while simultaneously leading teams.
Jay tells us about her experiences with vulnerability as a leader and how’s she’s faced it in the workplace herself, earning the right to be ‘emotionally open’, how she handled the job at hand when going through tough personal situations and how ‘life’ and little things that you don’t necessarily ask about or know about but impact how you turn up to work.

Welcome to Episode 3 of The Leadership Detectives.
In this episode, we discuss the importance of creating a compelling vision. It frequently acts as an effective platform for moving forward in multiple areas of life.
There needs to be a direction for everyone to be able to easily identify with, and the key question is this: would you set off for a journey without knowing what direction you're going in?
We look at examples from successful companies and how they've managed to distill their vision into something digestible. We also talk about various ways one can create and adapt their vision, from conception to execution.

Inviting conflict. Almost seems like the opposite of what makes sense when you think of leadership, but today we’re joined by Jana Bruechmann who brings a fresh new take on conflict in the workplace.
Jana takes us through how her work as a Systemic Leadership Coach on ‘Future work’ or the new way of working takes her away from traditional leadership methods. We talk about how the word conflict itself has negative connotations, the difference between what it and what could potentially be and why tension is good in the work place.
But we do look at the dangers of inviting conflict when you, as a leader, are not truly prepared. Jana leaves us with some great tips on managing conflict in an inclusive way and some of the things that leaders need to think about to avoid misapplying.
To find out more about Jana you can visit: JanaBruechmann.de or e-mail [email protected]

Welcome to Season 2 of The Leadership Detectives. We’re launching this season by answering the key question; What is a leader?
We discuss what a leader really is. From the behaviours that leaders exhibit, the differences between competencies and attributes that make a leader and share our opinions on an age-old question ‘are leaders born or created?’
Touching on some points that you won’t want to miss, such as setting values as a leader and ‘leading from the back’ this episode deep dives into organisational culture and how, as leaders, you need to navigate this space with a clear set of standards and values.

Our first live webinar! This episode on the topic of how not to be a bad leader.
We've all either been victim or witness to bad leadership. Either way, it has negative impacts on individuals or the team as a whole and ultimately limits happiness, contribution and well-being.
Neil and I discuss examples of those we have seen and highlight the behaviours and traits you should really avoid as a leader.
We hope you enjoy the recording of this inaugural live webinar. Special thanks to those who joined us live and for the questions they kindly submitted at the time. -
