In this latest episode, we're diving deep into some burning questions: Can introverts make exceptional leaders? What if you're not naturally charismatic or confident? How can you conquer feelings of inadequacy? We've got you covered! Join me as I sit down with Richard Thornton, a Leadership and Learning coach at Baker McKenzie, a leading global law firm.
Richard shares his unique coaching journey and insights on workplace psychology. Learn how to foster remarkable leadership by championing followership – creating an environment where your team can truly thrive. We're not stopping at external leadership; we're delving into the internal challenges too. Uncover strategies to overcome impostor syndrome, silence that nagging self-doubt, and boost your confidence. Richard brings practical techniques from his career, offering a fresh perspective on personal growth.
In our ‘deep-dive’ section of the podcast we cover emotional intelligence, the unspoken secret to success in our fast-paced world. To add to that, in each episode I ask the guest to curate a selection of resources for your further development.
