Season 2- Episode 10: The final episode of Season 2

In this episode, Frances and Andy are having a conversation by way of a summary of what we have gleaned in this whole season, as our takeaways and top tips our brilliant guests have shared around the topic of unlocking aliveness in Leadership.

In terms of defining leadership Jose-Luiz Moura says “leadership is all about bringing people together to achieve something, helping to empower and give clarity so that people can bring their best selves to work”, whereas Tony Underwood says, leadership is “providing an environment where we care for people as individuals enabling them to be at and deliver their best”

In asking our guests about what their purpose is, Raj Verma said, “For him it was all about “making a difference that sticks so that sustainable change happens,” He described himself as being a “culture carrier”. Nancy Choi uses the expression “Always be growing 🌴”, and that is her centrifugal force as she moves forward.

It’s so interesting to us that many of our guest talk about the ripple effect as something that drives them in their purpose as well as what they are most proud of with Sajna Rahman focusing her world on future leaders, and Rachel Evans talking about “enabling and contributing to the world that she lives in”. John Heritage spoke about “making things better for people, and that included everyone.

When asked, what makes you most alive as a leader? Vishal Oberoi spoke passionately about “Crisis, Complexity and Celebration”, saying that’s it’s the difficult crunchy things that make him come alive and then celebrating when things work out well. Giles Tromsett spoke about his passion in his work in the hospice movement saying, “Integral to our humanity is the care of those who are dying and the support of their families”.

Frances and I are very thankful to those guests who have shared their experiences and wisdom with us and to those who have listened to our podcast. We are taking a break for the summer and will be back in September with Season 3 of Unlocking Aliveness in Leadership.

We hope that you enjoy listening to this final episode of Season 2
