This week I was working with the most senior leaders of Hilton Australasia, and part of our session focused on visible leadership. It was a timely reminder to me… to remind you about how important visible leadership is right now.

Do you have an active crisis management team right now?

It is essential leadership to be considering the potential eventualities of the current global situation, and be treating it as a potential crisis or emergency for which your organisation and people need to be prepared.

If you are anything like me, you might look around yourself at the moment and feel like the world is on fire. You are concerned.

When this concern keeps going day after day, it can be overwhelming. It can feel like there is nothing you can do to make a difference.

But maybe there is.

What would make the biggest difference for your leadership, team and organisation in 2026?

1. Do you need to develop a bold vision?
2. Are you ready to create a strategy that delivers real impact?
3. Is it time to solve a complex problem, seize an opportunity, or map out an important change?

Today I am taking the opportunity to reflect on AI and its implications. Not as an AI expert, as someone who looks at the role of leadership in the big picture. I believe there are some themes we need to pay attention to so we can optimise this incredible new AI opportunity.

While everyone is seeing the rapid evolution and exponential uptake of AI, I think there are a few things that bear consideration. We have the potential for some serious implications in the world of work, and to the people who operate in that world of work.

I'm in my hotel room in Dubai preparing for tomorrow’s leadership excellence masterclass and thinking about what to write for this week's newsletter.

Instead of sticking to the script, I have decided to share a secret.

One month into 2026 and I have had multiple conversations with CEOs about what really matters to them when it comes to creating the opportunity for their people to thrive and to contribute.

There are some key themes coming up.

With the state of the world as it is, one of the most critical opportunities for every CEO, and I would say crucial to their success, is to build trust.

What is it to be a leader right now?

We all recognise that we live in a time of rapid evolution. The increasing complexity of our environment. The rise of technology in our work and world. And so, the role of leadership continues to evolve.
