This episode of CWTLeaders explores the latest views and insights on leadership, with a particular focus on leaders who have leaders within their team, and how they should approach their role differently.

KEY INSIGHTS

  1. Leadership is about shedding ego and enabling others to shine.

  2. Don't under-estimate the significance of the human element.

  3. Focusing on impact, rather than deliverables, will nurture trust and grow engagement.

  4. The right language will help people get to know each other and work together better.

  5. Leadership isn't easy, and it's important to make time for self care, to do it well.

  6. Personal branding looks different in a remote working world, and shouldn't be forgotten.

  7. Unlike the traditional 'ladder', a 'lattice' is a different way of thinking of leadership and type of contribution to be made.
