Exploring What Matters, Between Us - unrehearsed, Grant and I explore a range of things that we felt mattered between us, regarding uncut leadership voices - as we help organisations and people to grow powerful communities at work , and realise their true value and impact at work.

Once again, Grant and I are talking face-to-face, at the local cafe on the shores of Draycote Reservoir, 2 miles from my house in Rugby in the UK. 

Grant and I explore "how we know each other". We first met in Autumn 2010, and have since then been real sparring partners in many different frames - consultant/client, coach/coachee, mentor/mentee, and always real collaborators - bound by two big topics we both really care about - Leadership - and Safety.

Born in Glasgow, Scotland, Grant was a chemical engineer by background, and made his way into the world of operations and leadership very early on. Since then he has played a number of leadership roles in organisations (more on that will come), all the way to MD & CEO - and always had people, leadership, organisation development, and safety, at the heart of his own and others leadership practice.

He's calm, focussed, has real energy and drive, and really takes care to be thoughful before acting - then when he does act, he means to have an impact.  He's also easy to be with, light, good-humoured and fun. The rest will emerge....

Between co-hosting - Taking some space to reflect on my time with Liam - to reflect on my voice, my presence, and embracing my positive impact - and to share who my next co-host will be :-)

Exploring What Matters, Between Us - Liam and I are both deeply passionate about inspiring others to "be their best, most authentic self", by truly engaging with them. We share a lot of core ground. :-) The detail will become clear.

Once again, we are outdoors, sat in our back garden, in the autumn / winter sun, at our home in Rugby, UK  :-)

My 8th Podcast "co-host" - Liam Holliday - as we explore "how we know each other". Liam is my son, so we know each other well. I will leave the details of that to the podcast.

Born in the North East of England, and having moved house twice, at 24 years old, Liam has some varied life experiences already, and is in the midst of a major transition already !

Having graduated with a degree in Electronic Engineering, he decided to let that craft go (for now), and instead seize on his true passion for inspiring others to be healthy, in their mind, body and soul. A fitness instructor  already, he is mid-stream of a transition to be a PT (Physical Trainer), with a vision to eventually run his own business.

A passionate, kind, deeply social and outgoing young man, he simply wants to "bring a moment of joy into peoples lives". More will follow.....:-)

Let's dive in. We are outdoors, sat in our back garden, in the autumn / winter sun, at our home in Rugby, UK  :-)

A short bonus episode. I've been away from the podcast for a bit - taking some space - and in this episode, engaging my uncut leadership voice, while on gentle walk - on a Friday afternoon :-).

Between co-hosting - Taking some space to reflect on my time with Tom - to reflect on my voice, my presence, and embracing my positive impact - and to share who my next co-host will be :-)

Exploring Our Voices - in our last podcast together, Tom & I undertake my experiment to take some time after the podcasts, to reflect on what we noticed about our voices - and valued most about them :-)

Once again, we are both in our homes, so talking virtually.

Exploring What Matters, Between Us - unrehearsed, Tom and I dive into a range of things that we felt mattered, between us regarding uncut leadership voices - both in our professional lives as we help organisations and people grow powerful communities at work - and in our own personal lives.

Once again, Tom and I are talking "virtually" - he is at home in North Shields, UK, while I'm at home in Rugby, UK  :-)

My 7th Podcast "co-host" - Tom Boden - as we explore "how we know each other". Tom and I met in 2012, through our work - I will leave the details of that to the podcast.

Tom and I share a deep passion for honoring the ordinary every-day human endeavour in workplaces, and that those stories are told, through powerful relationships and connections. 

Tom is a very passionate, driven, collaboration and organisation development coach & specialist - now residing in my native north east, having traveled and lived in various places through his life. 

Tom is most of all, a good, kind, decent man. He's fun, easy to be with, and always living with a sense of what could be possible. Most of all, he's really committed to making a real difference to the communities in workplaces that he's part of.
