No Bullsh!t Leadership

I’ve advised many CEO / Founders over the last 5 years. My first job is often to convince them that the family culture they treasure so fondly is the biggest impediment to performance improvement.

In this Moment, I explore the four biggest drawbacks to family culture. But they are by no means the exclusive domain of family businesses: they’ll sound familiar to those of you who work in large listed companies and government agencies alike.

If you want to know how to drive high performance in a family business, have a listen to Ep.76: The Family Affair.

Most leaders do enough to get by. A select few do extra. And that gap is almost the entire difference between a career that stagnates and one that accelerates.

If you want to reach the pinnacle of your personal potential, it starts with your decision to do more than the next person. In this episode, I give you 6 ways to focus your extra effort so that it pays you back in multiples.

A friend of mine passed a book onto me a couple of weeks ago. It’s the autobiography of a rugby player by the name of Brad Thorn, and it’s a cracking read, titled Champions do Extra.

Not a little extra. Not extra when it’s convenient. Extra when it’s hard. Extra when no one’s watching. Extra when the result is uncertain, and the work has to be done now.

During his impressive career, Thorn represented two different countries in two different rugby codes. He was still competing at the highest level at the ripe old age of 41, before going on to become a head coach.

I know that most of you aren’t rugby players, so how does this principle translate to the world of leadership?

Well, in this episode, I’m going to explain why discomfort is a door to unlock, rather than a barrier to prevent you from progressing.

If you want to improve your team’s performance, single-point accountability is the biggest, most impactful lever you can pull.

The culture is difficult to create, but once your people experience the virtuous circle of empowerment and accountability, that’s when they find true motivation, self-esteem, and job satisfaction.

If you want to get better outcomes from your team, have a listen to Ep.365: Why Your Team Keeps Falling Short.

Most decisions you make as a leader look reasonable on the whiteboard.

But in the real world, you're rarely deciding between black and white options. You're choosing between two things that both matter: and something has to give. That's the dilemma. And how you handle it speaks volumes about the kind of leader you really are.

The ability to make trade-offs confidently, separates average leaders from truly great ones, and there are no hard and fast rules.

In this episode, Em and I break down six of the most common — and most consequential — trade-offs leaders face.
