- 23: One-team series - Why alignment is different from agreement
So many teams get stuck trying to achieve agreement, when to have a large number of people hold shared opinion is close to impossible. But to achieve alignment, now that is something altogether more exciting, because alignment is about shared intent. Make a decision together, and then make it the right decision.

Walking the Talk: www.walkingthetalk.com11 min - 22: One-team series - Do you give as much as you receive?
To give first, to offer help, to listen to another person’s needs and see the world through their eyes, without an ulterior motive, changes the dynamic in organisations and sets the groundwork for One-Team. Generosity and selflessness are not commonly expressed values in organisations and groups, and yet the build the trust and good will on which the practical elements of working across boundaries can take place.

Walking the Talk: www.walkingthetalk.com9 min - 21: One-team series - Get over yourself. It takes a group to get this thing done
There is one common trait to be overcome to truly thrive as One-Team and that is the need to look better than others, to promote one-upmanship and thus to undervalue the power of the collective. This episode draws on Carolyn’s long experience of working with people who display this trait, and provides tips on how to make the shared achievements more important than the individual glory.

Walking the Talk: www.walkingthetalk.com12 min - 20: One-team series - Understanding how one-team thinking is different
One-Team is more than a set of collaboration and alignment skills, it is a way of thinking and observing the world where you rise up, take the helicopter view and see yourself as part of a broader community to which you are linked by affiliation, purpose, brand or values. The start of this series covers how to shift your world view to see and act on connections to achieve a greater good.

Walking the Talk: www.walkingthetalk.com11 min - 19: Values driven series - Can you speak up for the truth?
"To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment" (Ralph Waldo Emerson). There is great courage in taking a stand, and our willingness to do so is a measure of the strength of our values. What will you stand for?

We all aspire to be values driven, but we are also driven by other needs: survival needs such as the need for control, to be liked, or for security. Often the two conflict, and this results in a perception that you are not walking your talk. How can you rebalance this and thus become more credible?

Walking the Talk: www.walkingthetalk.com10 min - 16: Values driven series - What do you truly value?
What is so important to you that you will hold true to it even if it means some personal, or organisational, sacrifice? At the heart of being values driven is answering this, and then having the courage to stick with it in the face of other temptations.

Walking the Talk: www.walkingthetalk.com12 min - 17: Values driven series - Know your hierarchy and how it impacts you and others
Not all values can be treated equally. Changing what you think is most important involves making new trade-offs, different decisions and some sacrifices. This episode makes values very practical, and shows what it takes to demonstrate a change to others, and how this is essential to changing culture.

Walking the Talk: www.walkingthetalk.com11 min - 15: Courage series - Speaking from the heart - Why would you bother?
What happens when you don’t like what you see, feel you have a valuable point of view to express, or feel wronged in some way? It takes courage to speak up and to take responsibility for being heard. And it usually involves a “difficult conversation”. What are the pay offs, and how can you make it easier to take that step? This episode offers Carolyn's coaching advice on finding the courage you need to speak up.

Walking the Talk: www.walkingthetalk.com13 min - 14: Courage series - Vulnerability sounds to others like truth and feels to us like courage
Sometimes being courageous is not about doing something different, but rather about revealing something about yourself you have previously felt you had to keep hidden. By keeping up appearances, portraying a shinier image of yourself than you feel inside, you gradually close yourself off from others and reduce their trust in you. This episode covers the courage that it takes to show some vulnerability.

This podcast is about leadership, authenticity and courage.

Take a stand, choose a value - accountability, one-team, customer-centric, and many more - and come away with insights and practical tips on what it takes to authentically live that day-to-day.
