No Bullsh!t Leadership

Leading a Unionised Workforce: The truths that no one wants to admit


Listen Later

Episode #346 // Leading a team in a unionised business is different. It’s hard enough to lead when you have direct line of sight to your people, but when there’s a third party running interference between you, it can be super tricky.

 

I had the opportunity to work for a number of industrial businesses that had a heavy union influence, and I learned an incredible amount about leadership because of the inherent degree of difficulty.

 

My goal in this episode is not to demonise or disparage the unions. But, no matter what anyone tells you, it is way harder to lead for performance in a unionised business.

 

Then again, no matter what anyone tells you, it is possible to lead your team to make positive change in a unionised business.

 

After all, the vast majority of people come into work each day wanting to do a good job and make a difference. So don’t let the adversarial nature of your relationship with the unions taint your optimism, or dampen your enthusiasm.


I cover a lot of ground in this episode, culminating in my 8 top tips for leading a unionized business to drive positive change and improved performance.
