How can leaders foster a truly collaborative environment? One key is ensuring everyone understands the 'why' behind decisions, empowering them to contribute thoughtfully, regardless of their specific role. Building trust through transparency is essential. When team members know they're not viewed as competition, but as valued contributors with shared goals, they're more likely to openly share insights and work together towards the best solutions. This collective approach strengthens the entire organization. #leadershipskills #teamwork #collaboration #trust #communication #transparency Send us a text (https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/1704997/open_sms) Support the show (https://paypal.me/theleadershipproject) ✅ Follow The Leadership Project on your favourite podcast platform and listen to a new episode every week! 📝 Don’t forget to share your thoughts on the episode in the comments below. 🔔 Join us in our mission at The Leadership Project and learn more about our organisation here: https://linktr.ee/mickspiers 📕 You can purchase a copy of the Mick Spiers bestselling book "You're a Leader, Now What?" as an eBook or paperback at Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09ZBKK8XV If you would like a signed copy, please reach out to sei@mickspiers.com and we can arrange it for you too.

Have you ever noticed how rewards can sometimes kill motivation instead of boosting it? 🎯 That’s the overjustification effect—when people shift from doing something out of passion to doing it only for the reward, and the joy disappears. In this episode of the Leadership & Psychology series, Mick Spiers unpacks the science of motivation through Self-Determination Theory by psychologists Edward Deci and Richard Ryan. You’ll discover why lasting motivation comes not from bonuses or incentives, but from cultivating: ✅ Autonomy – giving people control over their work ✅ Competence – helping them feel capable and growing ✅ Relatedness – creating genuine connection and belonging 💡 What You’ll Learn in This Video: Why extrinsic rewards work… until they don’t The danger of tying everything to bonuses and targets How to foster intrinsic motivation that sparks creativity, collaboration, and commitment The leadership mindset shift: inspire meaningful action, don’t just enforce compliance 👉 Your Turn: In your team, what’s driving performance right now—intrinsic passion or extrinsic reward? Share your perspective in the comments below. ✨ Don’t Miss What’s Next: In the next video, we’ll dive into decision-making psychology and uncover how cognitive biases shape leaders’ choices. 🔔 Subscribe and turn on notifications so you don’t miss it!

What if the most powerful leadership skill isn’t about what you say, but how deeply you listen? Julian Treasure, five-time TED speaker and author of Sound Affects, returns to The Leadership Project with a bold warning: the world’s listening is fading, and the consequences are enormous. Miscommunication costs organizations trillions, yet only 8% of employees believe their leaders are good listeners. Listening isn’t just hearing — it’s a conscious skill shaped by culture, experience, and belief. Treasure shares practical tools like the PAVE method (Paraphrase, Admit, Validate, Empathize) to help leaders bridge divides and create real understanding. In today’s noisy world of constant alerts and distractions, the ability to listen with presence has never been more vital. True breakthroughs happen in two places: deep, mutual listening or in silence. For leaders who want to inspire trust, boost engagement, and deliver results, mastering conscious listening may be the highest-leverage skill of all.

Think about the best leader you’ve ever had – someone who trusted you, empowered your growth, and celebrated your successes. Now contrast that with the worst leader – the micromanager who left lasting scars. This gap defines William Davis’ leadership philosophy, shaped by nearly four decades in corporate America. He reminds us that “leadership is deceptively simple, but simple doesn’t mean easy.” Davis shares stories that bring this to life – from helping a young professional recover from toxic leadership to creating opportunities for team members to shine by presenting their own work. His message is clear: true leadership isn’t about personal achievements but about building trust, creating safe environments, and lifting others to succeed. Leadership carries a profound responsibility, influencing not just work but mental health, family life, and society. With 78% of Americans believing corporate leadership is failing, the call is not for more leaders but better ones. This episode challenges you to reflect: are you creating a culture where people thrive, or just survive? 🌐 Connect with William: • Website: https://www.williamcdavis.net/ • LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/williamcharlesdavis/ • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/williamcharlesdavis64/ 📚 You can purchase William's books on Amazon: • How to Lead Without Just Managing: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F7G8WNXF/ • Building Genuine Relationships: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FD7QF55B/ Send us a text (https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/1704997/open_sms) Support the show (https://paypal.me/theleadershipproject) ✅ Follow The Leadership Project on your favourite podcast platform and listen to a new episode every week! 📝 Don’t forget to share your thoughts on the episode in the comments below. 🔔 Join us in our mission at The Leadership Project and learn more about our organisation here: https://linktr.ee/mickspiers 📕 You can purchase a copy of the Mick Spiers bestselling book "You're a Leader, Now What?" as an eBook or paperback at Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09ZBKK8XV If you would like a signed copy, please reach out to sei@mickspiers.com and we can arrange it for you too.

What if the mark of extraordinary leadership isn't found in having all the answers, but in asking the right questions? This eye-opening episode distills powerful insights from recent conversations with leadership experts Gary Cohen, Scott Burgmeyer, and Joe Davis—revealing a leadership framework built on curiosity, development, and generosity. Gary Cohen's journey from founding a company to growing it to 2,200 employees taught him a crucial lesson: leaders who constantly provide answers become organizational bottlenecks. The pivotal shift happens when leaders move from information-gathering to asking questions that empower others to think, act, and own solutions. This simple change transforms you from an answer-giver to a true multiplier, unleashing potential throughout your organization while satisfying people's fundamental needs for autonomy and recognition. Scott Burgmeyer adds another dimension by emphasizing that leadership isn't just about leading today's business—it's about consciously building tomorrow's leaders. His powerful personal journey reminds us that often we can't "read the label from inside the jar"—sometimes others see leadership potential in us before we recognize it ourselves. The true measure of leadership becomes not just what you accomplish, but who you develop along the way. Joe Davis completes this leadership trifecta with his concept of "generous leadership"—bringing vulnerability, authenticity, and genuine presence to your role. This approach isn't weakness; it's creating the psychological safety needed for teams to acknowledge mistakes, seek help, and collaborate effectively. Perhaps the most valuable gift? Your undivided attention—increasingly rare in our distracted world, yet precisely what makes people feel truly seen and valued. These insights are further enriched by glimpses into our new Psychology and Leadership series, exploring how understanding the brain's functioning transforms leadership effectiveness. From the astonishing case of Phineas Gage to recognizing how our unconscious patterns influence decisions, these psychological insights help us lead with greater intention and empathy.

This episode explores the challenges leaders face when struggling with showing vulnerability, especially the fear of saying "I don't know." Embracing vulnerability and self awareness can positively reshape team dynamics. Discover the power of empathy and authenticity in leadership, fostering a culture of trust and open communication. Developing these social skills is essential for any modern leader.

Leadership transformed through the power of giving – this is the core of our conversation with Joe Davis, former head of North America for Boston Consulting Group and author of The Generous Leader. With 37 years of leadership experience, Davis challenges the old command-and-control model and shows how generosity unlocks greater outcomes. As he puts it, "Leadership isn't about yourself, but about unlocking the capabilities of those with whom you work." His philosophy is built on seven pillars: connecting personally, listening generously, showing vulnerability, practicing inclusivity, serving as an ally, developing others, and recognizing contributions. Vulnerability, in particular, proves powerful. Davis notes, "I think 'I don't know' are three of the most powerful words any leader can use." Rather than weakening authority, honesty builds trust and sparks team creativity. The discussion also turns practical with lessons on timely, specific feedback. Davis recalls failing early in his career by saving feedback until year-end reviews, learning instead that coaching must be ongoing. Whether you lead a team or an entire organization, this episode offers actionable ways to elevate your impact through generosity.

What if a leader's greatest legacy wasn't what they achieved, but who they empowered? The discussion explores a shift in perspective—moving from defining leadership by company or department achievements to recognizing that a leader's primary "work product" is the cultivation of capable individuals. The challenge lies in intentionally creating environments where others can thrive and, in turn, develop future leaders. It was found to be "humbling" to realize the exponential impact of this approach, reflecting on instances where one has truly fostered leadership in others. How can we intentionally remove interferences and empower those around us to not just succeed, but to lead? #leadershipdevelopment #LeadershipSkills #EmployeeEmpowerment #ProfessionalGrowth #Management #leadershipdevelopment

Have you ever noticed how one hurtful comment can stick with you for years, but you can’t remember where you left your keys? That’s because memory isn’t a perfect record of the past—it’s deeply tied to emotion. In this episode of the Leadership & Psychology series, Mick Spiers explores the neuroscience of memory and what it means for leadership. Drawing on research from Yale University, Mick explains how the amygdala “flags” emotionally charged events, making them more memorable than neutral experiences. 💡 Key Insights You’ll Learn: Why emotionally significant moments are etched into long-term memory How leaders are remembered more for how they made people feel than what they said Why storytelling and empathy are powerful leadership tools How your own emotions shape decisions and lasting impressions Mick also shares a personal story about a leadership lesson that proved the truth of the phrase: “Facts inform, but feelings transform.” 👉 Your Turn: What’s one emotionally charged moment in your leadership journey that shaped who you are today?

What if leadership isn’t just about driving results today, but building tomorrow’s leaders? Scott Burgmeyer, co-founder of the BecomeMore Group, introduces a simple equation: Performance = Potential – Interference. Instead of adding more strategies or tools, great leaders create breakthroughs by removing barriers — policies, processes, or even self-doubt — unlocking exponential growth. He emphasizes strategic thinking as a neglected but vital skill. In today’s reactive culture, leaders must carve out time to reflect, starting with 10 minutes a week. By asking, What’s working? What’s not? What will I do differently? leaders can shift from busyness to clarity. Growth comes through the “squirm factor,” where discomfort fuels progress. Scott believes true leaders don’t create followers, they create more leaders. By asking questions instead of always giving answers, they spark independence and transformation. His challenge: remove interferences, think deeply, embrace discomfort, and commit to developing leaders who develop leaders — because the future depends on it. 🌐 Connect with Scott: • Website: https://www.becomemoregp.com/ • LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/burgy/ 📚 You can purchase Scott's book on Amazon: • Think: The Road Less Traveled: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1944104399/ • Chief Optimization Officer: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1944104356/ Send us a text (https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/1704997/open_sms) Support the show (https://paypal.me/theleadershipproject) ✅ Follow The Leadership Project on your favourite podcast platform and listen to a new episode every week! 📝 Don’t forget to share your thoughts on the episode in the comments below. 🔔 Join us in our mission at The Leadership Project and learn more about our organisation here: https://linktr.ee/mickspiers 📕 You can purchase a copy of the Mick Spiers bestselling book "You're a Leader, Now What?" as an eBook or paperback at Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09ZBKK8XV If you would like a signed copy, please reach out to sei@mickspiers.com and we can arrange it for you too.
