Over the last few hours I have spent time on zoom and on the phone coaching professional women – CEO’s of not for profits, government team leaders and a technical specialist looking to advance her career. All of them amazing, talented women. All of them frustrated and overwhelmed, and some of them on the brink of tears.

“What’s wrong with me?”

“I’ve been getting interviews and they go well but I just can’t seem to land that next higher position.”

“I feel like I am doing all the things but none of them are working anymore.”

“I feel so stupid. I’m smart, I have degrees. Why didn’t I see this coming?”

Each of them has so much talent and potential. Each of them suffering a similar ailment – imposter syndrome, a feeling of not got enough and a belief they need to push harder and faster to gain recognition, respect and reward.

What would you have wished to know before you started your career?

My guest on this episode of the 10 Degree Shift is a workplace safety inspector - Phil Lalor.

Phil has a reputation for being a professional and having high standards, people who know him will say he always has highly polished leather boots and a spotlessly clean car. I'm envious. Living in the bush on dirt roads my car can be cleaned one day and coated in dirt the next. That's not however why I brought him on the show.

I invited Phil to be a guest, because like me, he's a no BS straight shooter and he has had a really varied career. He's skilled in Crisis Management, Budgeting, Internal Audit, possesses highly Analytical Skills, and spent years navigating a career in government.

And it hasn't always been roses. In his very first career application Phil was knocked back receiving a letter from Defence Force Recruiting saying he was "educationally unqualified". He overcame that obstacle and many more to grow into a leader who has a good grasp of now making a life, not just a living. Join me for a yarn with Phil while he was on a motorcycle road trip doing just that!

When leaders value themselves and their own strengths, they are more likely to appreciate the unique strengths and perspectives of their team members. This, in turn, fosters a culture of collaboration, trust and open communication.

Knowing your strengths will help you communicate and connect better with others, allowing you to delegate more effectively and strategically position you for aligned, long term career success. When you leverage what is unique about you, you are able to achieve greater results in your professional and personal life.

In addition to knowing your own strengths, taking a strengths-based approach to how you lead and manage will have a positive impact on how you grow and develop the individuals and teams you serve.

G’day, it’s AJ and welcome to the 10 Degree Shift, a show all about how people have made small shifts in their life and leadership that have had a big impact.

Today my special guest is an amazing leader from the Manufacturing industry, the managing director of 100 year old firm Bekaert Stephen Hennessey. In this episode we explore how the balance of a leader showing competency and care can lead to higher staff retention and engagement, a better life work balance and ultimately a sustainable happy business and life.

Stephen shares many stories from his career from an electrical tradesman to his work now as an MD and how he has invested in being a natural servant leader along the way. From how he callibrates the culture to how he ensures there are high performing relationships across the business and how he achieved unity of their blue and white collar workers, there is gold in this interview from start to finish.

In Stephen's words - if you want to lead well don't be afraid to ask for help and make sure you are practicing self reflection along the way.

Whatever you are doing right now, stop and make time for this short but deep conversation.

Every single day I meet clients, see posts and receive questions from listeners about self-love, self-loathing, doing the inner work, overcoming trauma or fear and taking the necessary small steps and shifts along a journey to an embodied, whole life.

Today my interview is with a woman who runs deep and is comfortable sitting in her feelings and emotions. She wasn't always that way, in fact when I first met her and became her coach she was quite the opposite. But just look at her now.

Allow me to introduce you to a business embodiment coach Casey Warwick, she is fire, she is earth, she is water and air. She's all the things. And most of all she's raw and real. Like a true Aussie she uses a bit of potty mouth so you might not want to play this when your little ones are around, but you will want to listen to how she moved through her journey from being in the military, a fitness PT to now a mother, partner, friend and successful business woman. She is all the things and I love her for that.

I cannot wait to hear what you glean from her stories of her life and the smallest shifts she's made that had the biggest impact.

Love AJ

Leadership in 2022 and beyond is a whole new ball game.The old rules of business no longer apply so today AJ talks to non-executive board director Sam Martin-Williams about what leadership we will need for the future of work.
