About this listen

In this inspiring conversation, Adrian Last sits down with executive coach and lecturer Clive Leach to unpack the concept of psychological capital — the “HERO” principles of Hope, Efficacy, Resilience, and Optimism.


Clive shares how these four components empower leaders, teams, and individuals to set meaningful goals, find pathways through obstacles, and stay grounded in confidence and perspective when challenges arise. From developing “hopeful thinking” and emotional regulation to cultivating learned optimism, this episode offers powerful, practical insights into how coaching can build mental strength and sustainable performance in work and life.


Listen to learn:

  • What makes hope a key differentiator in leadership effectiveness
  • How to strengthen your self-efficacy and manage emotional derailers
  • The difference between “rugged” and “resourced” resilience
  • How learned optimism can reshape your mindset and behaviour
