In their book, Good Bye, Leading Executive Coaches Alison Lucas and Lizzie Bentley Bowers provide this missing piece of the change leadership puzzle: a way of leading yourself and others through change in a respectful, emotionally agile way. Their intention in writing Good Bye was to start more conversations about Endings in organisations. Here on the Good Bye podcast you can hear them in conversation with each other, and with guests, about why a Good Bye matters, how to be better leaders of Endings, and the impact of leading a Good Bye.
Because better endings mean better beginnings.
Alison and Lizzie are professionally accredited coaches and facilitators, working predominantly at board level and across all three sectors, who love to enrich their practise by working and learning together. They are passionate about staying continually curious and paying attention to their clients individual and commercial needs and outcomes.
Good Bye began as an article and a series of podcasts called Endings For Beginnings. You can also hear those early conversations here.

Organisations face a myriad of different kinds of endings every day. Some more obvious and traumatic, such as the death of a colleague, and others more everyday, from the completion of a project, to promotions, redundancies, mergers – the list is long. But while we invest heavily in beginnings and new starts in terms of time, energy and emotion, as leaders we can move on rather too swiftly from endings. Yet incomplete and unacknowledged endings impact the contribution and motivation of those who remain, and may be carried into the next team, the next project and the organisation as a whole.
In 2020, the current context we all find ourselves in, one of many layers of often distressing endings, led hosts and professionally accredited coaches and facilitators, Alison Lucas and Lizzie Bentley Bowers, to create resources to support leaders, including this podcast, and we share it with you in the hope that it may be of support to you as leaders navigating your way through this time as well as in the future.
