Ep.152: Why the Future of Work is Human-centric Leadership, Lessons from the Sensei Leader, with Jim Bouchard | Leadership podcasts
The 'Future of Work' has been a hot topic for a while now, and in today's episode my guest Jim Bouchard makes a compelling argument that human-centric leadership should be at the core of whatever workplaces look like in the future.His personal story from music to addiction to martial arts and finally leadership activist provides a relevant, fascinating backdrop to Jim's approach to leadership, speaking, and life. He's a true pleasure to converse with and in this episode we explore the essence of leadership, the importance of putting people first, the journey of transformation, and the need for self-awareness. We also discuss the balance between management and leadership, the significance of a human-centric approach for the evolving dynamics of the workplace, including the impact of remote work and generational differences. There's an emphasis on the necessity of creating work cultures that prioritise care and connection, understanding individuals beyond generalised labels, presence and engagement in leadership roles, and the value of vulnerability. Jim truly is the Leadership Sensei, and there's something in this conversation for everyone, no matter where you are in your leader's journey.Thanks for listening/watching this episode of Leading with integrity: Leadership talk.

One thing I learned from talking to Scott J Allen? There are 180 different cognitive biases. That seems like a lot..? Anyway, in this week's episode Scott and I explore key themes in leadership, from the importance of psychological safety, self-awareness, and maturity to the role of cognitive biases in decision-making and the necessity for leaders to co-create solutions with their teams. We revisited last week's topic of ethics and decision-making processes, and also chatted about why cultivating a positive organizational culture, and the need for effective leadership training, are so crucial to building successful teams.

Ep.139: Workplace Drama, Difficult People, and Guiding Teams to Success, with Brenda Neckvatal | Leadership Podcast
How often in your career so far have you brushed off an unsatisfying interaction as "they're just a difficult person"? I'll confess I used to do this A LOT.

We explore how different worldviews can lead to conflict and the necessity for leaders to take the time to understand their team members' perspectives.

Ep.138: Essential Leadership: The Determining Factor For Success In Any Team, with Thomas Harris | Leadership Podcast for New Leaders
Hands up who has worked for a bad manager, toxic boss, or terrible leader?I've been known to say that everyone has a story of a bad manager, but far fewer have a story of a great one - and that's really what Leading with integrity is all about: flipping that narrative. So meeting this week's guest, Thomas Harris, and hearing his similar take on it was highly rewarding. In his own words, he wants to create a world where great leadership is the norm and not the anomaly.Today, Thomas and I explore the critical role of leadership in organizations, emphasizing that effective leadership is essential for team success and overall organizational health. We discuss the importance of defining leadership correctly, the differences between leadership and management, and the common myths surrounding leadership. We also touch on the impact of bad leadership on individuals and teams, and the necessity for leaders to prioritize the mission and the well-being of their team members. This is a conversation about the complexities of leadership, the importance of different perspectives, the flaws in traditional practices, and the necessity of listening.

Are you a fan of the MCU, or the Marvel Comics? How about The Office? Or Avatar: The Last Airbender?If not, then this may not be the episode for you because in this conversation, I discuss with guest Dr. Sy Islam the intersection of leadership and pop culture, particularly through the lens of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Dr. Islam shares insights from his book 'Leaders Assemble' and emphasizes the relevance of these lessons in real-world leadership scenarios. We also share personal experiences of effective leadership and the significance of trusting oneself in career decisions. And the examples of fictional characters, such as Uncle Iroh from Avatar: The Last Airbender, as embodiments of ideal leadership qualities.Thanks for listening to this episode of Leading with integrity: Leadership talk.

Ep.136: Bringing Back the Humanity In Leadership, with Mandee Bowsmith | The Leadership Podcast for New Managers
What is your perception of HR? What role does this business function play in your work life, and your career? My guest this week is Mandee Bowsmith, a seasoned veteran of two decades in human resources in municipal government, having specialized in labor relations, employee benefits, and risk management. Mandee has some fascinating insights into the world of Governmental HR. Today's topics include why HR doesn't have to be the bad cop all the time, what micro-coaching looks like and how it works, why conflict isn't automatically something to be avoided, the vital role of honest, clear communication, and the art of conversation; as well as many more learnings about leadership and the role of HR from Mandee's career so far.We can really sum up Mandee's approach and the tone of today's conversation with the phrase: "humanity in leadership." It's a highly relevant cross-over to a core value of Leading with integrity - people-first leadership. And, fair warning, we do get a bit political at the end of this episode too (but it's worth a listen anyway!).Thanks for listening to this episode of Leading with integrity: Leadership talk.

Ep.134: Customer-Centric Leadership and Building Trust: Lessons from a 35-Year Career in Business & Tech, w/ Chris Hood | Leadership Podcast
It's fair to say this week's guest, Chris Hood, has had a pretty incredible career so far, from retail to the film industry, and from big tech to starting his own video game studio. He's also passionate about keeping the focus on customer service and leveraging technology. Somehow, Chris has also found time to write a book and appear on numerous podcasts too. We'll hear highlights about his incredibly varied career so far, like the love-hate world of video game development and the power of world-building, or the time he accidentally walked into the set of Captain America. We also tackle some of the big topics, including the future of work, the concept of fractional roles and how this could (or couldn't) work for leadership, how to be customer-centric and customer empathy - what it means and why it's important for your business - as well as how to hire a team that aligns with the values of your organisation (and why the hiring manager shouldn't actually be involved in the interviewing process)... And many more brilliant insights throughout our hour+ conversation!If you've ever wondered about the movie industry, or video game design, and what it's like working within them, then this is an episode not to be missed.Thanks for listening to this episode of Leading with integrity: Leadership talk.

Ep.133: Navigating ‘Business Puberty’: Effective Decision Making and Getting Unstuck from Indecision, with Jodi Hume | Leadership Podcast
In this episode we're talking about decision-making with the insightful Jodi Hume, a seasoned decision support facilitator and former COO. As leaders navigate the complexities of modern business, they often encounter the paralysis of indecision. Jodi brings a wealth of experience to the table, shedding light on how leaders can overcome these hurdles by focusing on avoiding 'wrong' decisions rather than fixating on finding the 'right' one.Throughout this conversation, Jodi emphasizes the significance of transparency and trust in leadership, essential qualities for authentic managers who strive to foster a people-first culture. We also talk about the different processing styles that leaders and their teams possess, how effective leadership is not just about making decisions but also about engaging people in that process, and the profound impact of childhood experiences on leadership styles. Tune in to this episode of Leading with Integrity to discover how to make decisions more effectively, get unstack from that indecision, hopefully get your company through 'business puberty', and why all of this will make you a better leader.Thanks for listening to this episode of Leading with integrity: Leadership talk.
