This is Leadership Letters, the podcasts reflecting on all things leadership!
Presented by Lizzie Bentley Bowers, a professional coach to brilliant people for more than a decade, a special leader shares their own 'Leadership Letter'. It could be to someone they admire, or not, a letter to a historical leader or even someone that they lead. This will kick off a conversation that will give real insight into how successful leadership works.
In the sister podcast 'Towards Leadership', Lizzie will then dive a little more deeper on a theme from that podcast, using the tools, exercises and thinking that she shares to help her clients become the best leaders they can be. They'll also be something else to listen too, watch, and read. All with the aim of challenging you to be a better leader.

Welcome to Towards Leadership from Leadership Letters.
In today’s episode we are looking at how the Ego States or Parent-Adult-Child model developed by Eric Berne, can be useful to us as leaders.
Sometimes when our thinking and relationships at work feel stuck, it can be difficult to find a way to name and give voice to what is happening without getting into blame and judgement of each other and indeed of ourselves. It can also be difficult to think of ways to change and shift what feels stuck. It’s in taking responsibility for ourselves and our relationships, naming what’s happening, and doing something about it, that so many individuals and teams we have worked with have found this model useful. In Part 1 of this two part summer series, we share the origins of this work, talk you through Parent, Adult and Child and look at their benefits, and pitfalls, so that you can apply this awareness to your own interactions.
