    Daryll Scott | Future-Focused Feedback: Driving High Performance Through Better Conversations

    In this episode of Helping Organisations Thrive, we are joined by Daryll Scott as we explore how to drive high performance through effective, ongoing performance conversations.Daryll highlights the importance of consistency, advocating for feedback as a daily practice rather than an occasional event. Daryll explains that feedback should be future-focused, with conversations about tomorrow and not yesterday. We discuss how to cultivate such a culture where feedback is not something imposed on people but something they actively seek, allowing employees to focus on achieving their personal goals.For leaders having to conduct a formal performance review, Daryll shares how best to prepare—setting clear intentions, aligning realistic expectations, and understanding what motivates each person to ensure feedback is impactful. He also encourages recipients to approach feedback with an open, growth-oriented mindset to fully benefit from the conversation.   Connect with Daryll: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/daryllscott/ Website: https://www.daryllscott.com/     ##########   If you are looking for a Blueprint to help you and your business manage uncertainty, deal with failure and navigate change then reach out to Julian at: julian@julianrobertsconsulting.com   You can buy my book "Weathering the Storm: A Guide to Building Resilient Teams" on Amazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0DFTYN2Y2   ##########

    Mark Sampson | Preserving Your Company's Soul: Uncovering and Nurturing Your Organisational DNA

    In this episode of Helping Organisations Thrive, we are joined by Mark Sampson as we explore how businesses can maintain their team spirit and culture during periods of rapid growth.Mark reflects on his own journey and explains that as companies scale, it’s easy to lose sight of the core elements that made them successful and stand out in the first place. To prevent this, Mark shares how leaders must focus on their "CORE"— Customer, Origin, Reason, and Ethos. Mark shares practical strategies for engaging your CORE within your team, including how to discover your origin story, as this isn’t something that is created, but rather discovered and nurtured.We touch on how we can maintain these core values and incorporate them into daily actions, even with hybrid working teams, helping to build a strong culture that can endure growth. Ultimately, Mark emphasises that maintaining culture requires intentionality and understanding of what truly defines your organisation from the inside out.   Connect with Mark: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/beliyfchief/ Website: https://beliyf.com/     ##########   If you are looking for a Blueprint to help you and your business manage uncertainty, deal with failure and navigate change then reach out to Julian at: julian@julianrobertsconsulting.com   You can buy my book "Weathering the Storm: A Guide to Building Resilient Teams" on Amazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0DFTYN2Y2   ##########

    Allison Ness | Thriving in Chaos: Leading Through Perpetual Disruption

    In this episode of Helping Organisations Thrive, we are joined by Allison Ness as we explore how leaders can navigate the constant state of disruption and change in today’s workplace, contrasting it with traditional views of organisational transformation.We explore how disruptions differ from planned changes, noting that change is no longer finite with a clear start and end—it’s now an ongoing, layered process. Disruptions are often more impactful, triggering emotional responses and creating a sense of overwhelm.To combat this, Allison shares how leaders can empower themselves by focusing on what they can control. Allison dives into the importance of creating safe spaces for leaders to reflect on their experiences, recognising the isolation that can come with leadership during turbulent times.Finally, we emphasise the need for vulnerability and normalising emotions, showing that acknowledging and sharing these feelings can help leaders and their teams manage disruption as a unit.   Connect with Allison: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/allisonness/     ##########   If you are looking for a Blueprint to help you and your business manage uncertainty, deal with failure and navigate change then reach out to Julian at: julian@julianrobertsconsulting.com   You can buy my book "Weathering the Storm: A Guide to Building Resilient Teams" on Amazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0DFTYN2Y2   ##########
