  • Leadership isn't about getting results

    You think leadership is about getting results. Your people think it's about whether you see them.

    Aileen Hiskins, founder of Strategic Alignment Training and a coach and facilitator with over 40 years of experience, has spent a career helping people see in themselves what they're too close to notice on their own.

    We explore:

    • Why self-awareness isn't just a buzzword, and the simple practice that can open up entirely new avenues in your career
    • The difference between self-awareness and self-regulation, and why knowing yourself isn't enough on its own
    • Why the most effective leadership isn't one style, it's the ability to be agile between influence and control
    • What Aileen said to herself at 25 after being talked about behind her back, and the practice it became for the next 40 years
    • How small habit changes, not big training events are where real behavioral transformation actually happens
    • The three things every person needs to feel at work: safe, valued, and heard

    If you're a leader who wants to bring the people around you further than they'd go on their own — this one's for you.


    • 00:00 – Aileen's journey: primary school teacher, corporate trainer, and a government project that changed everything
    • 05:03 – Why she left a 30-year corporate career for a leap of faith into her own business
    • 10:32 – The three things every leader must make their people feel
    • 13:07 – Imposter syndrome before it had a name — and why she finally felt at home in small businesses
    • 18:58 – Self-awareness and self-regulation: what they are and why they go together
    • 20:45 – Being authentic versus being unregulated: how to tell the difference
    • 23:40 – Why people start to like themselves more when they understand themselves
    • 31:45 – What good leadership actually looks like: influence, control, and the learning agility that bridges them
    • 37:01 – Can people really change? What Aileen has seen across 40 years
    • 41:52 – What Aileen wishes she knew earlier: the conversation at 25 that became a lifelong practice
