In this episode, I chat with Marcus Dimbleby, a former military officer, Marcus has been helping organizations build adaptive leadership, resilience, and engagement since retiring from the Royal Air Force in 2013 through his work at Effective Direction.

We explore why so many leaders struggle to create empowered teams and what's really needed to bridge the gap between intent and execution.

Have a listen to learn practical strategies to truly empower your team, drive engagement, and improve results.

Key takeaways

• Why simply telling your team they're empowered isn't enough.
• What are the key signs that your team may actually be disempowered, even if they don't say it?
• Why buzzwords like empowerment and psychological safety often fail to have an impact in organisations.
• Are you, as a leader, truly enabling your team to thrive, or just using the language of empowerment?
• How active listening transforms the way you engage with your team and improves their performance.
• What causes resistance to empowerment, and how can leaders build trust to overcome it?
