Talent identification and its impact on culture The Maverick Paradox Podcast

In this episode Judith Germain speaks to Kristin Lytle about talent identification and its impact on organisational culture.
Key Takeaways Self-awareness and self-regulation are critical skills for leaders to have. Leaders who can recognise when they are discombobulated and take a moment to re-center themselves before interacting with others have a huge impact.
Succession planning is still valuable but needs to focus more on developing talent pools rather than detailed individual plans, due to the speed of change today.
Trust is built when employees feel they can predict what an organisation will do - keeping commitments to develop and grow employees builds trust.
Catch people doing things right and help them see their own talents, don't just focus on the gaps.
In this conversation Kristin explains that identifying talent is just the first step - leaders must support and invest in identified talent, even through mistakes, otherwise potential goes wasted. Judith agreed large companies often narrowly define roles instead of developing diverse potential.
They agree that an organisation's culture reflects the behaviours it rewards - if problematic actions are tolerated, that sets the standard. Predictability and trust come from following through on commitments.
Kristin Lytle is the CEO of Leaders Edge. She is on a mission to help companies and individuals unlock the full potential of their talent.

Maverick leadership is all about thinking outside the box and challenging the status quo. It's about having the courage to take risks and the confidence to lead in a way that is authentic and genuine.
But amplifying your influence as a leader isn't just about having a strong vision or a big personality. It's also about having the right leadership capability and being able to execute on your ideas and plans.
The consequences of not having the right level of influence as a leader can be significant. Without the ability to inspire and motivate others, you may struggle to achieve your goals and make a real impact.
