How do you rebuild yourself after a serious injury that challenges your whole identity? How do you decide on your next step as a founder? How do you build something that your clients truly need and will actually use and value? These are some of the questions I discussed with my today's guest, Augusta Klingsten Peytz.

Augusta is the Co-Founder and CEO of the Mental Health Tech start-up Aesel, which offers a SaaS tool for therapists to monitor and visualize the progression of patients. Augusta has a background in venture capital and management consulting. Most recently, she supported a German mental health VC fund and, before that, worked at Boston Consulting Group. Augusta is driven by impact, and Aesel is her 3rd impact start-up. Previously, she founded the Female Leadership Academy - Denmark's largest leadership education for young professionals.

In this episode, you will learn about:

• Augusta's discovery of a surprising way to remember who you are after an 8-month recovery journey post-concussion
• her eureka moment that led to the birth of Aesel
• growing a healthy separation between you as an individual and your startup
• what to focus on as an early-stage founder, and what does it mean in practice

Stay safe and #standwithukraine,

If you as a leader are feeling like your business is a bullet train going full speed on tracks you have no control over, stop. Take a breath. And let's talk about what it means to lead teams and organizations in 2024.

Bill Dickinson, a former Roman Catholic priest who left the priesthood to be more authentic as a leader and show up as a whole self which included coming out as a gay man. Through his more than 30 years of leadership experience, Bill has learned about empathy, self-awareness and self-regulation, and is now helping us understand how we can secure our success as leaders in the modern world.

In this episode, you will learn about:

• why you can't bypass working on yourself to practice empathy towards others
• how can leaders design their teams and work to promote employees' continuous learning
• the issues with top leadership that we both decline working with
• the ways you can get to know your employees and help them grow
• which skills we see as valuable in the near future

Stay safe and #standwithukraine,

Being a leader is very hard. Managers need to navigate the constantly changing business context with new strategic directives, employee turnover, new technology, etc. Outdated one-size-fits-all approaches to leading, irrespective of the team members' background, group dynamic, and leaders' personal needs and preferences. Conflicting priorities of different stakeholder groups that have to be juggled and combined without any adverse effects on the team's productivity. And as a cherry on the cake, the classical lack of time for leader’s important, yet not urgent tasks.

I developed a simple framework and self-assessment that has been helping my clients and workshop participants to get out of overwhelm for over 3 years now. We break the complex leadership role into three dimensions and examine each of them. You quickly see the patterns - what are your strengths that you are ignoring but can leverage even more instead; which areas actually stress you out, and how can you put intentional effort into improving those.

Stay safe and #standwithukraine,
