9 Leadership behaviours that build commitment
We like to think we’re committed. That our team are committed. People who are committed show up, follow through and stick with it. The more commitment you have, the greater productivity and momentum you can generate to get the job done and lead people through transition and change. Commitment means team strength. That all sounds good in theory. But how […]
The key to your inner strength: curiosity and courage
We want others to see us as smart, capable and positive so we ‘look good’ and look like we ‘have it all together’.

My 8-year-old son Alex is right into skateboarding. On Tuesday’s we head to a skate park after school.

How to set clear expectations in a way that builds trust and psychological safety across your direct team
As a leader, you’ve probably struggled or been challenged in a relationship with a direct report at some point. I hear leaders talking about personality differences or communication problems. These issues often mask the real problem – misaligned expectations. Expectations can ruin relationships, especially when the expectations are not communicated, understood and agreed. It’s easy to make assumptions about what […]
