Dermot’s practical and people-focused approach to productivity has reshaped how thousands of professionals manage their time and teams. In this episode, we dive into the critical habits and systems that allow leaders and teams to perform at their best—without burning out.

Following on from our previous 2 episodes on Communication (ep. 16 Communication and ep. 17 Communicating with Purpose), we continue the conversation by diving into structuring your communication so its most effectively received.

As a thriving leader, you need to make decisions that balance the best interests of your team and the organisation. But by instilling a culture where your team members feel equipped to make their own decisions, reduces the need for everything to be ran by you, which is a time-consuming and disempowering process. 

Holding team members accountable and setting goals through clear communication is a skill that many leaders find challenging. When we delay having important conversations, problems escalate, and accountability isn’t addressed. 

When leaders and organisations incorporate feedback into their culture, it increases engagement, retention, productivity and motivation. 

In today’s episode we discuss what it feels like to be part of a team and how to build a high-performance culture with your team.

In today's episode, we talked about confidence and how to be confident as a leader Get ready to unpack some barriers to lead confidently that will help you to thrive as a leader.

And we’re kicking it off with the incredible Amy Edmondson—Novartis Harvard Professor, bestselling author,  and the world’s top-ranked management thinker. Her research has been pivotal to my work, and our conversation is full of insights that every leader needs to hear.

When we connect people to purpose, we inspire them. Purpose is a key driver of employee engagement.  

An operating rhythm creates a repeatable cadence, so team members know what to expect week in, week out.

Learning when it is an appropriate time to coach takes awareness of the situation, the team member and yourself. Identifying coaching moments is a critical skill for thriving leaders. Situational leadership and understanding the context is important.

In today's episode, we focus on building your personal leadership style. Get ready for a deep dive into practical strategies and insights that will help you to thrive as a leader.

Change is normal, but it can be uncomfortable. We are constantly evolving, improving and adapting the way we do things. Thriving leaders need to lead and communicate change effectively.

Everyone needs to be effective at communication—thriving leaders even more so. It is the most universal skill. Effective communication is how thriving leaders engage and inspire their people to follow them. 

A strategy articulates what makes your organisation unique and different and provides value.

Most people naturally like to help others solve their problems. In fact, it is quite likely that you moved into a leadership position because you were a great problem solver and a superstar at delivery.

When some people hear the word feedback, the hairs on the back of their neck stand up. You may have had a bad experience receiving feedback or perhaps you gave someone feedback and it didn’t land as you intended.

In this episode we discuss what it takes to build a Thriving Team, including team dynamics, and we share our proven Thriving Teams model, which has been developed based on research and through leadership on high performing teams, along with my extensive experience working with teams as a Leadership and Team Coach.
