Justin and Cresta are joined by special guest Nikki Gianni, an experienced coach and former military leader. They discuss the challenges and importance of effective leadership in various contexts, from corporate environments to entrepreneurial ventures. Nikki emphasises the need for leaders to genuinely want the role and to establish trust with their team members. They also explore the significance of accountability and setting clear expectations for employees. Through personal anecdotes and insights, the episode highlights the impact of strong leadership on organisational culture and success.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• The lack of proper training and preparation for new leaders is a common issue. Many leaders are promoted based on their technical skills rather than their leadership abilities, which can lead to challenges in effectively managing and leading a team.

• Trust is a crucial element in leadership. Micromanaging employees can be detrimental to their performance and motivation. Leaders should trust their team members and empower them to do their jobs whilst providing guidance and support when needed.

• Accountability is often lacking in the workplace. Leaders should set clear expectations and hold employees accountable for their actions and performance. This includes addressing issues promptly and providing constructive feedback.

• Effective communication is essential for successful leadership. Leaders should clearly communicate expectations, changes, and goals to their team members. Regular check-ins and open dialogue can help foster a positive and productive work environment.

• Leading by example is important. Leaders should demonstrate the behaviours and values they expect from their team members. This includes being punctual, following through on commitments, and treating others with respect and fairness.

BEST MOMENTS

"You have to want to do it. That's the first step, right?"

"People micromanage because they're afraid people aren't going to do what they're supposed to do."

"You just have to be able to put your trust in other people and that will pay off exponentially if you are sincere."

"Accountability, what's that? That's like a whole series of conversations that we could have, right?"

"You can't just expect that somebody knows what you expect. You have to communicate it."
