The underlying foundation for any leader-follower relationship is trust.
Yet we rarely examine what we mean by that word. Trust. Nor do we talk about why it is so central to the workings of leadership, or such a critical ingredient in how our societies work.
If you don't understand trust fully, you can't properly value it, build it or protect it. Which means that ultimately you can't exercise leadership fully, nor can we create the conditions where we experience more trustworthy leadership in our lives.
So this episode is all about trust. What it actually is, the critical role it plays in leadership, and how we can cultivate more of it.

Chris Rolls, Managing Director of PieLAB Private Equity believes that the best investment that we and our organisations can make is in leadership. In fact, the capital fund he runs makes its investment decisions, and leverages the value from the many millions invested, by focusing on and growing leadership.
It’s paying off too, with their first investment fund performed so well, that they are now raising capital for a second fund using the same philosophy, with 39 out of their original 43 investors buying in again, with some increasing their stakes by up to 10 times their original investment
Chris is also a successful entrepreneur and business leader in his own right, building, growing and selling at least four businesses before establishing PieLABs first investment fund in 2017.
In this episode Chris shares why leadership makes all the difference to their success, how he learned to value leadership, and some of the key leadership principles that have driven his own success, and that of the businesses they invest in.

The Australian transition to renewable energy has not been an easy one. Our dependency on fossil fuels, and until recently a conflicted national energy policy, has made it hard to make progress toward climate-friendly renewable energy resources like offshore wind. Despite these challenges, a dedicated team of professionals have been making ground on Australia's first offshore wind farm. When built it will power over 1.5 million homes and produce 25% of Victorias' energy. Gerard talks with Erin Coldham, the acting CEO and Chief Development Officer of Star of the South about the challenges and opportunities they have encountered as they have sought to lead the way towards a green future
