Our Leadership theme for this month is Resilience. One person who can give us particular insight into the Leadership challenge from a number of perspectives is Keith Ayers, from Integro Learning Company. Keith has not only run his own training and development company for over 40 years but as a leading industry facilitator on people and culture, Keith is a trusted advisor to many organisations around Australia. He understands what it takes for leaders to survive and thrive in challenging times. Listen in as Keith shares his considerable insights on the importance of trust in leadership and building resilient teams. His advice to new and aspiring leaders is to “recognise that others’ needs are equally as important as our own”. I hope you enjoy the interview.

Join me for this month’s inspiring interview on Leadership where I speak with Mark Parry, Managing Director of Ron Finemore Transport.   

One industry that continues to be pivotal in our Covid recovery is the transport and logistics sector. Especially during lockdown when we have relied on our supermarket shelves being stocked and fuel for our cars. Mark Parry describes the challenges of dealing with a rapidly changing landscape while balancing the needs of stakeholders and providing direction and support to the many men and women who drive the trucks and plan the deliveries for this busy regional carrier. Be inspired by Mark’s clarity of thought and positive outlook and, especially listen in for his advice for new and aspiring leaders on dealing with complexity and developing your own leadership style. I hope you enjoy it.

Join me for this month’s interview on Leadership where I speak with Jen McVeity, Founder and Owner of Seven Steps to Writing Success.   

Be inspired by Jen’s humour, positivity and resilience as she explains how she navigated her team’s journey through lockdowns in 2020 and how she has pivoted her business model to embrace new opportunities in 2021. What do you do when your business model gets flipped by events outside your control and when 70% of your business disappears overnight?   

Listen to how Jen used agility and empathy to inspire and lead her amazing team on this journey of unprecedented change. I hope you enjoy it.

Instead of Bouncing Back why not Bounce Forward? In this month’s interview, I talk with Christopher Shen of Christopher Shen Consulting, psychologist, trainer and coach, about how to move on from a disrupted 2020 and regain the momentum in our businesses and our lives.

Author of Wrestling with Resilience, Christopher shares his often humorous and always eloquent insights into the human side of work in 2021. I hope you enjoy watching it.

Focus on Engagement. Here is my recent interview with Colin Wilson. Director of Key Business Advisors (KBA). Listen in as he  explains how his business managed to not only maintain but increase employee engagement during a disruptive 2020. Based on feedback from the STAR Workplace survey we conducted, the lessons learned are incredibly insightful. If you are wondering how to achieve the best results with your people and clients in the hybrid work environment of 2021 this interview will provide the answers. It’s very inspiring.
