Lee Evans on working with fear and living your values
Rethinking Leadership
April 13, 2021
Lee Evans is the founder of Mind Power Solutions and coaches the British Army’s leadership as well as elite athletes and business owners. He talks about how fear is the biggest challenge that every leader faces and how we need to change our relationship with it, moving from avoiding it to working through and with it. We also talk about finding your flow and the importance of self-awareness, especially when you are out of your comfort zone.
Lee’s story of working in Afghanistan where he didn’t live his value around listening was such a powerful one and a reminder of how difficult it is to balance different values and be inclusive where others may have a different set of values. I echo his belief that living values is a courageous act and defining them without living and breathing them is worse than not defining them at all.
How well are you living your values? What happens when your values are at odds with those in your team?
Ask for help – don’t go it alone!
Jude Jennison
January 06, 2021
As the UK is back in lockdown for another 6 weeks, everyone deals with it differently. People often say it’s lonely at the top. I used to think that too running my own business. Now I am so well supported that I have a tribe of people to reach out to.
Ask for help
I’ve made asking for help one of my critical go to tools.
Asking for help and offering support to others in the team is vulnerable and requires courage. Often people don’t ask for help because they don’t want to be a burden to others in the team, especially when everyone is busy. You may not ask because you don’t want to be seen as weak.
Hold polarities with clarity, curiosity and understanding
HR Director Magazine
October 22, 2020
Uncertainty leads to differences of opinion because we don’t have all the information when something has not been done before. We’ve never led through a global pandemic before, so everyone has a different view on how to handle it.
This article explores the challenge of polarisation and the need to encourage exploration in teams using curiosity and seeking to understand difference points of view.
Why vitality trumps resilience
HR Director magazine
June 09, 2020
There is an insidious disease among us – resilience.
In the last few months, employees have had to upskill rapidly in practical terms – furloughing, new legislation, virtual working, new technology, revised health and safety policies, industry changes. Not to forget home-schooling.
Prioritisation has never been so critical and so difficult.
Resilience training, however well-meaning, often creates the expectation that employees should dig deeper whilst simultaneously being put under more pressure. This is not sustainable or reasonable.
I'm serious. They feel your energy and vibration of the world. If you think this is a bit crazy, just know that you pick up on energy too. You know when someone is angry on the end of a phone, not just from the tone of their voice. You know when you walk into a dodgy part of town or the mood of a meeting. This is the energy of emotion that impacts all of us but mostly we have not been trained to pay attention to it. So we ignore it.
3 positions of leadership - leading from behind
LinkedIn
October 15, 2019
Business leaders can learn much from horses about teamwork and leadership. In our Leadership with Horses workshops, we take clients out of the office to work with horses. We share a leadership model that the horses use to create cohesive teamwork. It involves three positions of leadership and we will explore Leading from behind in more detail in this post, including the critical application of this role in business.

I never considered myself a writer before. I've dabbled in a few blogs and I wrote and published my first book Leadership beyond measure in May 2014.

What are the challenges we face in business as we lead through uncertainty?
My next book entitled Leading through uncertainty is due for publication in May 2018. As part of my research, I interviewed CEOs and leaders in organisations on their challenges and experiences of leading through uncertainty.
The interviews were so fascinating that I extended the research and have launched a Leading through uncertainty podcast showcasing the interviews.
In between interviews, I’ll share some of my own thoughts on uncertainty and the emotional
How do you respond to stress and overwhelm?
LinkedIn
March 14, 2017
In Oct 2016, I ran a thought leadership round table with horses. The output was a 12 page report on Leading through uncertainty. One of the topics discussed was Stress and overwhelm. Here is an extract from the report:
People in organisations are operating under severe pressure, with a sense of “If I can just get to the end of the week, it’ll be ok.” This is an adrenaline-fuelled, high-alert state and people do not function effectively when placed under continual stress in this way.

November 30, 2016
As a business owner, my work is varied which requires me to be adaptable and flexible to respond to whatever is the focus for the day.
I can go from waterproofs and wellies in a muddy field to a dress and heels in a corporate environment to waterproofs and wellies again all in the space of one day.
When I ask clients that question, they usually don't know. Most people have never considered their impact. Some of my clients tell me they don't have one. I assure you that you do have an impact! When clients start to pay attention to the impact they have on different people in different situations, they are often surprised. You may have done intellectual forms of training that help you negotiate, manage projects and understand how people think. But how you show up, your presence and non-verbal communication also have a substantial impact on how you lead, inspire and influence others.

Innovating Humanity
March 02, 2021
Paul McGillivray runs remote.online, an automation software business. I’m excited to bring this interview to you because Paul is an advocate of using technology as a means to enhance the human experience. We discuss how software can increase productivity, the difference between being efficient and effective and the importance of having purpose in work so we make a difference in the world.
Paul’s vision for the future is an exciting one – the rapid advancement of technology means we need to think differently about how we interact with it and use it to serve society. The more technology expands, the more I think we need to be purposeful in our use of it and purposeful in everything we do – in our personal and professional lives, as well as considering the legacy we want to leave in the world. Technology can help us enormously if we stop getting distracted by meaningless activities.
How can you use technology as a force for good in your own life, and create a sense of purpose in the wider world?

The team recognise the importance of using technology to preserve cultural stories as well as to reach a wider audience and have translated much of their information into several languages to make it more accessible.
I was struck by the power of stories to delight and entertain us and how they bring culture and history alive and shape our future. I like the idea that technology can make history more interesting as well as accessible and that we are missing out when we don’t know about the rich cultural diversity of our local cities.
How might you rethink the way you look at history and places based on a different cultural perspective?

I was surprised to think of Dominos as a tech company. It shows that technology is critical for all of us in how we live and work. I was also inspired by Kim being a fashion designer at heart and using those skills to set up a technology business. She is a great role model for other women and an inspiration to encourage us to see technology differently, at the heart and forefront of every business. Kim is clearly creating a legacy for women, for technology, for business and for Birmingham.

I’m always struck by what it takes to bounce back from personal setback and how we all do it in different ways. Rebecca is one of the most warm-hearted, generous and giving people I’ve ever met. Her warmth always lifts a room. She’s a testament to the incredible human spirit and what we can overcome. The key thing is reaching out for support – something she does wholeheartedly as well as giving generously. I encourage you to do the same.

January 12, 2021
Rachel Fletcher is the CEO of Ofwat, the water regulator for England and Wales. Rachel shares the challenges for the water industry of the increased demand for water and the expectations on the environment. She talks about collaboration with different companies, as well as local environmental groups, communities and end users. Partnerships and collaboration are the key to everyone being part of the solution, a message that is very relevant to other businesses and industries too.
The subtlety of collaboration requires an ability to have humility, vulnerability and to relinquish control. In talking to Rachel, I’m struck by the delicate balance of problem solving in an emotionally intelligent way using the data and science to inform and guide. Our world is no longer binary, so we need to work in a more systemic and distributed way so that everyone becomes part of the solution. I think this applies to any business and industry.

My head was buzzing after talking to Jess. We covered so much – from remote working to being human. Jess’s warmth shines through and it shows that when there is the desire to create emotional connection, we can drop the masks and just show up as human beings. I love Jess’s view that we should try to change the world. I think if we all do a piece of that, we genuinely can.

We discuss how remote working has been possible due to the available technology, and how we’ve recognised the importance of the face-to-face human interaction in the absence of it. Ria is pragmatic about the future needing to be more in balance. Ria also talks about the importance of understanding the emotional state of everyone in the team to guide how you work together.
Vanti have created a culture of transparency around emotions and mental health. It so important to be honest about differences of opinion and I love the way Vanti provide an opportunity for people to share how they feel after a difficult meeting. I agree with Ria that it makes business sense to care for the people in the team but Vanti seem to have gone beyond the words and put it into action. The level of honesty and openness about how people feel is refreshing in a world of fast-paced technological change.
The business case for clarity and openness is clear, how can you create more clarity and openness in your team?
What might be different if you had a quick check in and check out of meetings?

Deb Leary of Forensic Pathways on innovation and trust
Rethinking Leadership
December 08, 2020
Deb Leary is the CEO of Forensic Pathways, a business she set up in 2001 after overhearing a chance conversation at a police conference. Deb has built her business on innovation, designing products and services that meet specific market needs in the security sector, despite having no prior experience in that market. She talks honestly about the need to know when to let go of products when they are not hitting the mark and to continually look forward, hone those products or develop something new. At a time when every business is having to adapt, it is crucial to consider what needs to be re-designed, dropped or created.
I loved Deb’s approach to building a team who are better than her, as well as the stories of the family rows they have had round the table. Wouldn’t you love to be a fly on the wall for those? Seriously, I’m inspired by her ability to stay focused on pulling the team together despite their differences of opinion, and the ability to achieve a common goal whilst also providing space for the team to make mistakes. I particularly enjoyed her line: “You have to let your team breathe or you’ll stifle creativity.” With the current uncertainty, leaders and teams definitely need to find a more emergent and fluid way of working together, without the need to control.

Amardeep Gill is a Partner at Trowers & Hamlins law firm. He specialises in commercial law in the tech sector.

We discuss the ethical, moral and social issues of technology and how we apply it and what that means both for lawyers and for us as human beings in a world of technology.
I’m struck once again by the need for us as consumers and businesses to take responsibility for how we use technology. I’m not convinced we’ve realised that we have that responsibility. I have personally always assumed that the designers of technology have that responsibility but if you look at how we use many tech products and services, they have gone in different directions, often driven by the consumer. I think we need to start considering the moral, ethical and social issues of how we both individually and collectively use technology.

He also puts to rest the nervousness that people have around technology taking over our lives or security issues with the cloud, and explains what Microsoft are doing to enhance the way we live and work. He explains how technology can improve workplace culture, giving more freedom to colleagues to change processes.
Bjoern has made me think more about how we use technology and specifically, how we make time to work out how we use it wisely. We hear so much scaremongering around AI and social media, yet Microsoft are pushing boundaries of how we can use it to enhance the way we live and work and solve social and business problems. I’m determined to put aside time each week to explore how I use technology to improve the way I work.
