    Beyond Scarcity Thinking - How leaders can shift from survival to possibility thinking

    Cathy Burke is a globally respected author and former CEO whose work spans from village classrooms to global boardrooms. Her experience and lens on leadership is unique, and her voice has inspired thousands to reimagine power, leadership, and what it means to be human. In this interview she speaks with rare clarity, heart, and depth of soul on how we navigate the complexity of our times. Our conversation flows from how leaders can move beyond scarcity thinking to access inner courage, and impact, to her fringe style approach to life from punk music to meditation and how the challenge of changing the world is a slow and steady and not always guaranteed thing. Grounded, ethical and articulate Cathy shares her story, her challenges and setbacks and the reality of life in our modern world. I highly recommend her book Today I Saw a Revolution https://www.cathyburke.com/today-i-sa...

    IMPACT Culture - How One Law Firm Transformed Culture, Performance & Profit

    In this episode of The 10 Degree Shift, I sit down with Julie Morley, Partner at the Law Office of Conrad Curry, to explore her extraordinary 40-year career spanning government, outdoor children’s education, and now senior leadership in the legal sector. Julie shares the golden thread that has guided her journey: a deep valuing of people, genuine connection, and a remarkable ability to see patterns others miss—patterns that lead to better systems, smarter decisions, and commercial growth. But the heart of this conversation goes deeper. Julie and her leadership team had always prided themselves on being inclusive, people-focused, and growth-minded. Then came 2022 - when 10 staff resigned, all in a single year. It was a wake-up call. Instead of doubling down on old systems, they reimagined everything. Over the past three years, their cultural reset has generated extraordinary outcomes: Employee retention rose from 52% to 87% Income doubled Profit increased three-fold The secret? They scrapped performance reviews altogether. In their place, they created year-long coaching conversations centered around each team member’s IMPACT measures: I – Innovation M – Motivation P – Professionalism A – Accountability C – Communication T – Teamwork The philosophy is simple and deeply effective: Take care of your people, your people will take care of your clients, and your clients will take care of your profit. This episode is a masterclass for leaders wanting to build a conscious, high-performing, human-centred workplace—without the burnout, bureaucracy, or outdated reviews. Tune in to hear Julie’s wisdom, courage, and the powerful cultural transformation that is reshaping what leadership in law can look like.

    Walking Together for Collective Wellbeing with Malcolm Smith

    The Manager to Leader Shift – Interview with Malcolm Smith, Chairperson of Yakuway Indigenous Corporation In this episode of The Manager to Leader Shift, I sit down with Malcolm Smith — a respected business leader, Aboriginal lore man, and Chairperson of Yakuway Indigenous Corporation. Malcolm and I share a long history, having gone to school together, and today I’m also honoured to serve alongside him as a Board Member of Yakuway. Malcolm reflects on his upbringing, the strong influence of his parents, and the values they instilled in him: respect, fairness, and the importance of giving everyone a go. We talk about his football career and lifelong journey with fitness and wellbeing, as well as his path as an Aboriginal lore man. Malcolm shares what it means to go through initiation, to hold responsibility for land and people, and to walk with the wisdom of mob and tribe. Our conversation weaves through the heart of leadership — collaboration, vision, and the future goals of Yakuway in supporting the holistic wellbeing of people across Lake Macquarie and Newcastle. Together, we explore the importance of Steward Eldership and preparing the next generation to step into leadership with presence and responsibility. This is both a personal and powerful dialogue about what it truly means to lead, care for community, and honour the legacy of those who came before us.

    Rediscovering Sovereignty And Deepening Awareness with Jandamarra Cadd

    I've been so excited in the lead up to this year with Jandamarra Cadd, tune in and you will see why. Jandamarra is an Aboriginal (Yorta Yorta) man who was introduced to the paintbrush at age 15 by a counsellor in juvenile detention after a troubled childhood growing up as an outsider in his own land. Painting became an outlet to transform his pain and trauma, and a visual voice for the oppressed. Today Jandamarra is a pioneer artist, with his unique blend of traditional Aboriginal art techniques and inventive, contemporary application as well as his moving depictions of unification, walking together and seasonal indicators. In this in-depth yarn Jandamarra shares with AJ his story, his philosophies and his journey towards greater sovereignty, healing and awareness - something we can all learn from greatly. We discuss Dadirri or Gupanewal (deep listening), regenerative living practices, finding calm in the constant eternal stream, handling the pressure of modern life as well as seasonal indicators and other aspects of learning to walk in more collective, rich way rather than simply linear. Appropriately this interview was recorded during NAIDOC week 2025 .with the theme of The Next Generation: Strength, Vision & Legacy. I acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land. I am honoured to have the opportunity to speak with him - may his words resonate in your heart and soul as they have in mine.

    Understanding Human Design for Leaders and Teams in the Workplace

    In this Spotlight on a Leader I interview Amanda Trenfield about her career in financial services and her career switch during Covid to becoming a workplace Human Design Consultant and Facilitator. We discuss how human design supports both conscious and unconscious personality characteristics and how leaders and their teams can recognise and embrace them to support productivity, engagement and high performance. When leaders understand their own design and that of their team their company can thrive as they produce efficient, productive, and profitable business results; and enjoy a culture of happy, harmonious and healthy team members - everybody thrives. ​By recognising each team member for their individual skills, decision-making and collaboration attributes, and when the manager utilises this intelligence to celebrate individual and collective contributions.
