    Do Hands-On Leaders Get Better Results?

    Think hands-on leadership is a strength? You might just be the problem on your team. What's the one leadership behaviour that makes your team's heart sink when your name pops up in their inbox? The one that kills discretionary effort, drains initiative, and keeps you buried in low-value work? That would be…micromanagement! In this episode, I go deep into the difficult trade-off between getting the job done, and building long term capability; I also give you 6 tips to prevent you from becoming a micromanager.

    Moment 161. Onboarding New Hires the RIGHT Way

    Onboarding isn't admin. It's where standards, trust, and performance begin. When someone new joins the team, it’s easy to take it for granted that they’ll know what to do. But, no matter who they are, they need a comprehensive onboarding process. The onboarding process consists of two distinct parts: the administrative elements (most of which apply only to external hires); and the leadership elements (which apply to everyone). In this Moment, I remind you how to use the onboarding phase to set your new hires up for success. If you want to take a deeper dive, have a listen to Ep.55: You’re Here...

    What Do Senior Leadership Teams Actually Do?

    Every executive wears two hats. Most only know how to wear one! Are you currently part of your organisation’s senior leadership team (SLT)? Or are you just watching from below, wondering what the hell they’re doing?  In this episode, I look at how SLTs actually work, as opposed to how they should work. I cover off on the things that make the most difference to SLT culture, and I take a deep dive into what it means for executives to wear “two hats”. Most importantly, I  give you 3 tips for interacting with the SLT, whether you’re on the team, or just managing the fallout from below.  If you’re not part of the SLT already, this could help you fast track your rise to executive level!

    Stop Being the Bottleneck: Reset Your Leadership System

    BONUS 🔥 You can't get promoted out of a team that can't function without you. This is the final bonus episode of our Leadership Reset Workshop, and if you've made it to Day Three, you've already done more honest reflection than most leaders do in a year! Over the last two days, you reset your standards and closed the accountability loop. But here's what happens next for a lot of leaders: everything still comes back to you. You're making the calls, clearing the roadblocks, rescuing the decisions. Your team might be performing better, but you're still the bottleneck. That's not a motivation problem. That's a systems problem. In this episode, Marty and Em cover the three leadership systems that quietly shape how your team performs every single day, and how to reset them. System Reset #1 — How value is defined and delivered. System Reset #2 — How work flows to the right level. System Reset #3 — How your 1:1s function as a performance system. This episode wraps up the Leadership Reset Workshop series. If it's resonated, the next step isn't more effort, it's installing a leadership operating system that sustains performance without burning you out. The March cohort of Leadership Beyond the Theory kicks off soon! This is the final cohort at $2,500 AUD, the next intake moves to $3,500.

  6. 7 Ways to Reset Your Leadership Standard

    7 Ways to Reset Your Leadership Standard

    When your team gets comfortable and performance slides, that's leadership drift. Here's your reset. In this episode, Em and I give you 7 Ways to Reset your leadership standards, and get your team back on track. Leadership drift doesn't announce itself. It creeps in slowly and quietly until one day you realise your team isn't performing the way it used to, and the uncomfortable truth is that they were following your lead the whole time. Missed deadlines, blame culture, broken commitments, slow decision making…these aren't team problems. They're leadership symptoms. Em knows this firsthand. In the middle of rapid growth and mounting pressure last year, she realised her own people didn't have the clarity they deserved. Not because she was a bad leader, but because she'd quietly told herself that because they were strong, she could ease up. That's drift. And it happens to the best of us. In this episode, recorded live from our Leadership Reset Workshop, we break down exactly what leadership drift looks like, why it's so easy to miss, and the practical steps you can take right now to reset your tone, pace, and standard, without blowing up trust or swinging into micromanagement. Want to join Day 2 of the Leadership Reset, all about resetting your accountability? It’s completely free, join here. ———————— 🚀 NEW FREE WORKSHOP: THE 2026 LEADERSHIP RESET  Join Marty and Em for a powerful 3 session virtual workshop designed to sharpen your leadership focus, realign your priorities, and set a clear course for success. 🎯 Don’t miss this chance to reset, refocus, and lead with impact - Register now ———————— You can connect with me at: Website: https://www.yourceomentor.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/yourceomentor Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/yourceomentor Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/martin-moore-075b001/ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@YourCEOMentor ———————— Our mission here at Your CEO Mentor is to improve the quality of leaders, globally.  👉 Doors are open for Leadership Beyond the Theory.
