FLG_S2_E2In this refreshingly candid conversation about change, Campbell Macpherson helps us understand that change really is a normal part of life and leadership. By demystifying this idea Campbell helps us understand that change is something that isn't really a new introduction to our current situation but something that eggs and flows with various degrees of intensity and paste.What's refreshing about this conversation is how human, honest and authentic Campbell makes change in the context of how we respond and feel about it. Referring to his new book “The Power to Change” he normalises all of the negative emotions that we have about change, including the loss and grief.In doing so, Campbell gives us practical tips and insights into how we respond to change that happens to us or change that happens by us.This show is for leaders looking to normalise the change experience for themselves and for the people that they lead so you can get the most out of the change experience. As Campbell says we are able to take a step back to detach, and lean into the change experience more intelligently and with better results.

Season 2: Episode 1

Dov Baron on finding your dragon fire

[E] Explicit Content

https://www.dovbaron.com/

 

About Dov Baron:

 

Dov Baron is “The Dragonist”, guiding us in how to recognize and nurture dragons (the top talent) hidden in our organizations. A Dragon Leader is not a position, it’s someone who is always pushing to improve and wants those they serve to reach their full potential. Dov’s humour and no-BS style is contagious. As a master storyteller, he is considered to be the leading authority on actualized leadership. Actualized leadership means getting the result you set out to achieve in the most meaningful manner. Working with diverse leaders and executive teams, Dov filters common bonds to create Fiercely Loyal cultures. You can’t achieve loyalty without “meaning” and talent only stay when they feel they are a part of something larger than themselves. Besides being a bestselling author of One Red Thread and Fiercely Loyal: How High Performing Companies Develop and Retain Top Talent, Dov has been named one of Inc. Magazine’s Top 100 Leadership Speakers to Hire and as one of the Top 30 Global Leadership Guru's. He has spoken to the United Nations, The World Management Forum (Iran), The New York National Speakers Association, and The Servant Leadership Institute. In June 1990, while free rock climbing, Dov fell approximately 120 feet and landed on his face. The impact shattered most of the bone structure of his face. After ten reconstructive surgeries, no external evidence remains; however, this experience wasn’t just life-changing, it has been completely transformational. Dov shares how Dragons are born in fire, experiences that could potentially destroy you, instead can birth purpose, passion, and hunger to champion others to nurture the Dragon Fire in ourselves, our families, our communities, and our companies. Dov believes the world needs more "Dragon Leaders" committed to living their purpose, standing in their truth, and empowering others to find their fire and do the same.

FLG_010_BONUS Gabrielle Dolan on the competitive advantage of storytelling for your personal and organisational brand.

 

Gabrielle Dolan is the OG of Business Storytelling and her latest Book “Magnetic Stories” is another incredibly helpful contribution into the art and science of storytelling that benefits your own personal brand and the brand of your Business. This show unpacks why storytelling for leaders really matters and also navigates us through the kinds of stories we can tell - all the while dispelling myths around WHO can become a storyteller and what we need to be focused on to begin this journey. Humans are wired for narrative. We are wired to place ourselves in a bigger story that calls us up into the purpose, values and culture that we aspire to belong to. Stories are at the heart of making this not just meaningful, but also memorable. Ral, as we call her, will step you through a process to become a master storyteller yourself so you can manage your own brand and build the brand of your business.

FLG_026 Brad Lomenick on leadership transitions, personal growth and staring down your demons.

 

At some point in your life and leadership you come to what most commentators call a ‘wall’, or a crisis of limitations or whatever you might choose to name the fact that you realise you’re not as good as you thought you were and you’re not as well formed as you thought you were. Enter Darb, the nemesis leader of Brad who had this confronting reality shown to him by his team when that called him out on how he was leading and what it was like to be on the other side of him. Fast Forward several years and you get THIS conversation. A leader who faced his challenges head on, made significant personal and professional changes and is better off for it in every way, and so are we. Brad’s humility and honesty with his own journey will give you great hope in facing your own challenges and being better for it.
