Leading Through Uncertainty

Nick Eastwood is the CEO and Deputy chair of WASPS rugby team. Nick has taken WASPS from a failing business in Buckinghamshire to a thriving business in Coventry in the heart of the Midlands. He talks openly about the challenge of making some tough decisions and the honesty required to engage people.

From the moment I sat down with Nick, he showed such humility having overcome enormous challenges and achieved so much in turning around WASPS to the thriving team and venue it is today. I love his idea of making everything simple and he certainly role models that, as well as tenacity, teamwork, courage and so much more.

In this podcast, I explore the role of emotions when leading through uncertainty. I explore how we suppress or explode our emotions and how we can use self-awareness to regulate them and use them skillfully as a source of information. I also share how the horses invoke emotions and how people can learn from that experience.
