    S5 Ep3: The Human-Centric Approach to High-Performing Teams
    May 14 2024
    In this episode of the Leadership Effectiveness Podcast, I discuss the human-centric element of leadership teams with Top Team Performance Expert Andrew Lopianowski.

    Being a highly effective team and being good leadership team are similar but not the same. The team can't start thinking about how they are leading everyone else and providing the direction for the for the business, the enterprise, until they figure out how they need to work together and on what. Why do they need to work together? Then, they can start thinking about that next layer.

  • S3 Ep1: 6 Steps to Sustainable Leadership

    S3 Ep1: 6 Steps to Sustainable Leadership
    Nov 20 2022
    6 Steps To Sustainable Leadership. 
     
    The more senior we are in our work the greater the stakes. The greater the pressure. The greater the impact. The greater the responsibility to yourself and others. It’s in this space where leaders can get hijacked by the stressful situations they face and this can show up as a lack of emotional control, team tension plus reduced agile thinking and less forward-focused decision making. 
     
    We are all triggered by stress and respond in different ways. A certain level of stress is normal and can actually help to engage and motivate us towards taking action. Those of you who follow my executive coaching practice will know I regularly talk about the importance of mental fitness. In my opinion, it is one of the most important self-management and leadership-effectiveness tools available to us. This 6-step guide to Sustainable leadership incorporates a number of mental fitness techniques and includes several tweaks you can start today.
     
    We can become overloaded by well-being posts talking about stress silencing our success. And whilst stress shows up in most of my executive coaching conversations in some form, this stood out for me… 
     
    ◾️ A recent study by the University of California, Berkeley found that there was an upside to experiencing moderate levels of stress.
     
    ◾️ Whilst we all know a certain level of stress is needed at times to get us to take action (think fight or flight response) this recent study actually found that the onset of stress can entice the brain into growing new brain cells responsible for improving memory. 
     
    ◾️ These intermittent bouts of stress help us to keep alert, focused and able to perform better.
     
    ◾️ The challenge comes when we switch into a prolonged ‘always on' state of stress which can trigger autopilot leadership. 
     
    I would suggest that we don’t want to silence stress we want to supress its strength to ensure we come at our leadership in a sustainable way. 
     
    In my free ebook ‘6 Steps To Sustainable Leadership’, I look at the ways we can reset, reboot and rejuvenate our leadership. Incorporating practical techniques that connect our body and brain to accelerate our leadership effectiveness from our desk to the boardroom.
