What does it truly take to transition from a great manager to an impactful leader?
In this episode Jeannette shares key insights from her 30-plus years of business experience, spanning corporate CEO roles in global travel to managing her current business portfolio. She breaks down the foundational elements of leadership, explaining why technical excellence is rarely enough, how to build self-awareness using tools like psychometric profiling and 360 feedback, and the importance of lean energy management.
Whether you are leading a team for the first time or looking to sharpen your established leadership skills, this episode offers practical, fast-tracked wisdom to help you unlock your true potential.
You'll Learn Why:
Technical excellence can earn you a promotion, but it doesn't automatically equip you with the skills required to be a good leader.
True leadership is always an "inside job" that relies heavily on deep self-awareness and understanding your personal blind spots.
Having the courage to lean into uncomfortable, difficult conversations is a necessary responsibility of effective leadership.
Making decisive choices under conditions of uncertainty and with incomplete information is vital to keep an organisation moving forward.
Whether you're a founder, CEO, small business owner, entrepreneur, startup leader or executive, these lessons will help you make smarter hiring decisions and build a stronger, more successful business.
