No Bullsh!t Leadership Martin G Moore

Moment #64 // Many CEOs and senior executives talk a good game when it comes to culture change and transformation… it’s almost expected. But, even though they might make the right noises, it doesn’t necessarily mean they have the commitment to set a higher standard, or generate the level of momentum it would take to lead the change successfully.
Pretty much every senior leader says they want a constructive, high performance culture. But very few can clearly articulate what this means… and even fewer are prepared to do what it takes to affect any lasting change.
It doesn’t mean they’re bad people, or even that they’re ineffective leaders… What it does mean is that many senior leaders are only prepared to go so far in the quest for culture change. It’s the elephant in the room that no one really talks about. 
You can take a deeper dive into these insights by listening to Ep.37: The CEO Wants Culture Change… or does he?.

Episode #293 // “I look at my high performers with one thought in mind: What will it take for them to get to the next level?”
When you focus on setting a high standard for performance, it’s easy to fall into the habit of managing the exceptions — to focus on the people who fall behind, or don’t meet the minimum standard you’re trying to preserve. 
The old saying that the squeakiest wheel gets the oil is as true in the leadership context as it is in every other aspect of life!
 
When people don’t perform to the required level, it’s only natural to want to help them… to coach, guide, and motivate them, so that they can perform successfully. So you can spend a hell of a lot of time and energy focusing on people who, quite often, have absolutely no interest in lifting their performance to meet your expectations.  
 
And, while you’re busy focusing on the under-performers, it’s easy to forget about the people in the team who are self-sufficient… the ones who just get the job done… the ones who don’t suck your time and energy, because they consistently do things the way you expect them to.
We’re quietly grateful for the ones who don’t constantly demand our attention, but this often leads to an unintended consequence: a few of these reliable people are genuine high performers, and neglecting them costs you way more than any of your under-performers ever could!
In this episode, I start with the critical question, “Do you know who your high performers are… really?!”; I then give you some surefire ways to lead your team so that you get the most from your best; and, of course, I give you a few traps for young players that you should try to avoid.

Moment #63 // Times are tough and, when the pressure is on, it doesn’t take long before companies start to squeeze their suppliers in an attempt to find cost savings.
Unfortunately, your suppliers are facing exactly the same pressures you are. Their costs are rising too, and they’re experiencing the same difficulty in finding and keeping their best people.
Knowing how to manage your suppliers for optimum long-term benefit is critical, especially as you seek to outsource more and more of the company’s non-core work. If you squeeze your suppliers too tight, they’ll end up cutting corners. Remember, you can outsource the activity, but you can’t outsource the risk!
You can take a deeper dive into these insights by listening to Ep.221: Managing Supplier Relationships.

Episode #292 // “In team sports, “leading from the front” means a completely different thing than it does in business.”
There are a number of elements that contribute to your leadership identity. Many leaders let their identity form organically, without much conscious thought or planning. That’s fine, but there’s an enormous amount of upside to be captured, if you choose to be deliberate and methodical in your approach.
For every leader, regardless of level, industry, company size, or location, there are a number of foundational aspects of leadership that require a level of competence… but only if you want your people to thrive and perform, that is!
Because every individual is different, the way you interpret and apply these fundamentals may also be vastly different. The best leaders understand how to apply their unique style, personality, and values to a framework of strong leadership that’s guaranteed to produce extraordinary outcomes.
How deliberate are you in crafting your leadership identity? Are you thoughtful about how to integrate your own style into the tried and trusted foundations of high-performance leadership? Or are you, like many leaders, happy to leave it to chance?

Moment #62 // The board of directors is increasingly seen as the accountable body for ensuring ethical, responsible behavior from companies. But we still seem to be witnessing some pretty spectacular failures in corporate governance.
To me, this isn’t at all surprising. The board has very little influence over what the management team does on a day-to-day basis. 
Boards have limited control over what really goes on. I’m sure that many professional directors will disagree with me on this… but that would most likely be a reflection of their ego, rather than reality.
You can take a deeper dive into these insights by listening to Ep.248: The CEO and the Board.

Episode #291 // “The boundaries between our work and personal lives have shifted, and leaders need to deal with the fallout.”
When I began my corporate executive career, the only concern leaders had for safety was to ensure that people working in dangerous environments didn’t get seriously injured or killed.
Then, there were a lot of businesses that didn’t even need to think about the word “safety”, because they were predominantly white-collar, office-bound enterprises.
For most of my senior leadership career I worked in industrial businesses:
Where people worked at dangerous heights, and in confined spaces;Where big machines moved with velocity; andWhere, heat, energy, and dangerous gasses could combust with explosive force. 
The world has moved on quite a bit since then. These days, what it means to keep people safe (and just how far your duty of care extends) has evolved dramatically. I’ve found that my grounding in the principles of physical safety leadership has been invaluable in meeting these evolving challenges.
These days, when we talk about safety, it’s normally couched as SHE (safety, health and the environment), and it covers everything from personal wellbeing, physical and mental health, and psychological safety, right through to ensuring a company leaves the smallest possible footprint on the communities in which it operates.
In this episode, I take a fly across the top of the safety domain, and talk about the role that you play as a leader in keeping your people safe — physically, mentally, and psychologically.
