Are you suffering from burnout? Have you experienced it in the past?

It’s a hot topic in the modern workplace, with good reason. You only have to glance at recent business headlines to learn people in workplaces the world over are suffering with burnout and related problems like anxiety and stress. So for the next few weeks, we’ll be speaking with burnout, stress and anxiety experts to learn more about what these challenges look like, how to recover from or prevent them, and what the role of the leader should be within that process. The first of those experts is Eugene Lee, and in another first for Leading with integrity, this will be a Double Feature! In part 1 today, we’re going hear all about Eugene’s own experiences with burnout, how that led him to becoming a Burnout Recovery Coach, starting his podcast, and making a few other changes, we’ll talk about recovery from and prevention of burnout, and what we can do as leaders to spot the signs, then act to support our people through that. We’ll get a little bit into the wider leadership implications and the lessons Eugene has taken about that from his career so far too, to be explored in more detail in part 2, next week.

What's the best way to create a culture of autonomy, empowerment, and independence among the people that you lead?

My guest today is Marcus Aurelius Higgs. He is a communication coach who works with parents of pre-teen age kids. He helps to help them to show up better, maintain a meaningful relationship with their children and this may sound like a bit of a departure from the topic of leadership... BUT if you think about those three words - autonomy, empowerment, independence - and the underlying importance of communication and relationships, suddenly the connection is more obvious!

We'll be covering a lot of deep topics in this episode, and some surprising but enjoyable tangents! Marcus has also been a teacher, an author, and has lived and worked in several countries, bringing a uniquely earned perspective on the big questions of leadership. His love of words and launguage are on clear display throughout and I especially enjoyed picking apart the meaning of the word integrity together!

Do you often have disagreements at work or with friends?

Have you put much thought into the way leaders and colleagues should disagree, or how to do so without disrespecting each other?

Central to today's episode is an idea that is too easily forgotten in the heat of the moment with all of the modern context and stresses: it’s ok to disagree with someone. Disagreement doesn’t have to mean animosity, disrespect isn’t necessary to explain an opposing view. And perhaps most importantly, the role of conflict or disagreement isn't necessarily about bringing the other person to 'your side' or persuading them they are wrong.

This question is pivotal to effective leadership, great leaders recognise the value in opposing views, see the benefits of healthy confrontation, and are active in the way they encourage and develop these things within their teams. My guest today is Philip Blackett, a consultant and entrepreneur who previously has worked with big companies including FedEx, Goldman Sachs, and Bank of America. Philip has authored several books, including "Disagree without Disrespect: How to Respectfully Debate with Those who Think, Believe, and Vote Differently From You" which is incredibly relevant!

Do you cultivate resilience in yourself and your team?

We'll be talking about the lessons Chrissy kindly shares from her own career, advice on how leaders can be more resilient to the challenges of work and what it's like to take on a family business.

Can you think of a better person to talk to about teamwork, high performance, or leadership than a former olympic athlete? Especially one from a team-based sport?

No? Well, you're in luck then. Because today I’m chatting to Olympian and Coach, Joey Lye, about confidence, high performance, how to adapt and thrive, and her experiences of teamwork, leadership and crisis on the world’s stage as a competitor at the Tokyo Olympics in 2020 - a.k.a. the ‘Covid Games’. We cover several of the big topics of leadership and high-performing teams this week, including managing imposter syndrome, building confidence, and adjusting to the unexpected (by learning to adapt and thrive!).

Sports aren't usually my thing, as many of you know, but that doesn't mean I don't recognise the value and lessons to be learnt from awesome people like Joey; it was a great conversation and you'll find loads of useful leadership tips in this episode.

Are you the Luke Skywalker in the hero's journey of your life? (Or Harry Potter, if that's more your thing. No judgement..).

Have you figured out your purpose? In career, in life, for some it’s a divine calling closely to their beliefs and for others it’s simply about finding the intersection of what they’re good at, what they enjoy, and what they can have the most impact by doing. Whatever the underlying logic, finding your purpose or mission in life can be a truly transformational moment. For leaders it's a key step in being able to lead authentically, essential for trust-building and success in the long-term.

My guest today is Eric Sardina, an executive coach who helps his clients find meaning, purpose, success, and overwhelming joy in their lives. He offers a great metaphor for purpose, which I've used in the episode title: it's about making sure the ladder you're climbing is leaning on the right building! We touch on so many important topics in today's conversation, but always tied back to purpose, authenticity, and leadership.
