No Bullsh!t Leadership

When was the last time you told one of your people exactly where they stood? If you can't remember, this Moment's for you.

Your people deserve the truth, even when it's the last thing they want to hear… and the last thing you want to tell them.

If you want to take a deeper dive into why you should tell your people what they need to hear, have a listen to Ep.329: Don't Feed Your People's Delusion.

Most transformations don't transform all that much. They cost a lot of money, they suck a huge amount of the organisation's time and energy, and no one really checks to see if the benefits were ever delivered.

If you're not on the executive team, the whole thing just happens to you. But in reality, you're not as powerless as you might think.

In this episode, I dig into what transformation really is, why so few programs actually earn that label and, most importantly, why so many transformations fail.

I unpack a recent cover story from Harvard Business Review on the false alignment trap, which provides a really useful starting point for the discussion; I then add five more common reasons for transformation disasters; and I finish with three practical ways to get a hand on the wheel when transformation is being done to you.

You may think that rolling up your sleeves and doing your team’s work is leading from the front. But it’s actually a bad habit that’s diluting your people’s capability.

Every time you get involved in the nitty gritty of your people’s work, you’re trading away the opportunity to build capability for achieving a fast, high-quality result.

The job at every level is different. You need to be clear on what your job is, and you need to stay in your lane and do it!

If you want to take a deeper dive into how to support your team without robbing them of the opportunity to build their skill and capability, have a listen to Ep.391: Do Hands-on Leaders Get Better Results?.

The 7 Leadership Blind Spots, one a day:

1. Drive Accountability. Do people deliver for you, or do they make excuses? (Ep.418: http://www.yourceomentor.com/episode418)
2. Handle Conflict. Can you have the tough conversations that weak leaders avoid? (Ep.419: http://www.yourceomentor.com/episode419)
3. Work at Level. Are you leading at the right altitude, or stuck in the weeds? (Ep.420: http://www.yourceomentor.com/episode420)
4. Deliver Value. Are you focused on outcomes that matter, or just ticking boxes? (Ep.421: http://www.yourceomentor.com/episode421)
5. Make Great Decisions. Are you decisive when it counts, or do you overthink it? (Ep.422: http://www.yourceomentor.com/episode422)
6. Master Ambiguity. Can you make decisions when you don't have all the answers? (Ep.423: http://www.yourceomentor.com/episode423)
7. Build Resilience. Do you stay calm when everything's falling apart? (Ep.424: http://www.yourceomentor.com/episode424)

Airbnb CEO, Brian Chesky says he doesn't believe in one-on-ones. I couldn’t disagree more, so in this episode I show you why sometimes, even the best CEOs get this one wrong.

Chesky says the 1:1 model is flawed. Not only does he not do them, but he asserted that almost no great CEO does either. To support his point, he quoted Nvidia CEO, Jensen Huang, backing a similar view.

Here's the problem: I think it's wrong. Not a little bit wrong, but fundamentally wrong for the vast majority of leaders who aren't running a flat, product-driven tech company.

I spent thirty years perfecting the one-on-one, and it's the single most powerful tool I ever had as a leader. In this episode, I take Chesky's argument apart, point by point, and give you five reasons why the one-on-one is still your secret weapon.
