Welcome to the latest episode of Towards Leadership from Leadership Letters. 

In this edition, we take more of a dive into some thoughts and ideas arising from talking to theatre director Sean Turner in our most recent episode of Leadership Letters.

Sean talked about the importance of casting – which for you might be the interview so we start there, with a look at the leaders’s role as the audience in an interview. 

We go on to look at:

• Being a receptive and supportive audience
• Inclusive interviewing
• Forced fun, awkwardness and connection
• Why connection matters
• Ways to increase connection
• Psychological Safety
• Trust
• Collaboration
