The Outcomes Over Hours Show with Bridgette Smith, Founder Playbook

Support your people where they are, then the hours don’t matter because they are going to do what it takes to get the work done, which might even be fewer hours that you expect because they’re working smarter.”

Recently on the Outcomes Over Hours Show, I had the pleasure of chatting with Bridgette Smith, CEO and Founder of Founder Playbook.

 Bridgette and I discussed why a ‘servant leadership’ style results in much better business outcomes than more traditional styles of leadership in Corporate America, as well as why it’s important to be true to yourself.

When you think about the best bosses you’ve worked for, did they have a ‘servant leadership’ style?

The Outcomes Over Hours Show with Ben Hamer, PWC

“Companies will treat ChatGPT like an office intern in the future.”

Yesterday on the Outcomes Over Hours Show, I had the pleasure of chatting with Dr. Ben Hamer, Head of Future of Work, at PWC Australia.

Ben and I are very aligned with our thinking that the leaders and organisations that embrace more flexible, human-centred ways of working will be the ones that thrive.

Ben shares so much wisdom in this episode! We discussed what trends to expect regarding how we work over the coming decade … his insights around how companies will use ChatGPT, why offices and airport lounges will have more in common than you think, and why you need to invest more than ever in your middle management were particularly interesting.

What other trends do you anticipate regarding the future of work?

The Outcomes Over Hours Show with Catherine Buhler, Energy Australia

“Leadership shouldn’t be about checklists with your people”

Recently on the Outcomes Over Hours Show, I had the pleasure of chatting to Catherine Buhler, Chief Information Security Officer, at Energy Australia.

Catherine and I discussed how focusing on your team’s happiness yields better outcomes than focusing on checking off if they’ve done certain tasks.

Anyone else find they get better outcomes when they focus on how their team members are feeling instead of the tasks on their to-do lists?

The Outcomes Over Hours Show with Wendy Mak, Link Group

“Not everyone is a morning person!”

Recently on the Outcomes Over Hours Show, I had the pleasure of chatting to Wendy Mak, Chief Marketing Officer, at Link Group.

Wendy and I discussed how to work effectively and create boundaries when you’re in a global role, the importance of leaders flexing their style with various team members and how, as a “night owl”, Wendy gets her work done effectively.

Any “night owls” out there who can relate to being more effective when they have more control over when they work?

 

The Outcomes Over Hours Show with Rob Loader

“Focus has shifted from activity to outcomes”

Recently on the Outcomes Over Hours Show, I had the pleasure of chatting to Rob Loader, who is one of Australia’s leading Transformation and Delivery Executives.

Rob and I discussed the importance of trust and communication in our new hybrid world, and something that really stood out for me was how leaders need to give sufficient time and attention to how they communicate with their teams on a work front, as well as checking in on how team members are going as individuals.

Do you see communication are one of the key skills leaders need to focus on in a hybrid work environment?

The Outcomes Over Hours Show with Warren Day, ASIC

“The Warren of 20 years ago wouldn’t recognise the Warren of today!”

Recently on the Outcomes Over Hours Show, I had the pleasure of chatting to Warren Day, Chief Operating Officer at the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC).

Warren and I discussed how leadership styles have changed over the past few decades, and something that really stood out for me was how he has consciously changed his own leadership style to adapt to the world of hybrid work.

How have you adapted your own leadership style now we are no longer full-time in the office?

The Outcomes Over Hours Show with Andrea Bertrand, Transurban

“You hire people for a reason.”

Today on the Outcomes Over Hours Show, I had the pleasure of chatting to Andre Bertrand, Chief Information Security Officer, at Transurban.

Andre and I discussed how leadership styles have changed from before, during and after the pandemic, and something that really stood out for me was the steps Andre takes to empower his team so they can focus on the outcomes that matter most.

What are the most effective ways you’ve seen to empower your team so they can focus on what matters most?

The Outcomes Over Hours Show with Khalid Kark, Deloitte

“Are you giving your people the best environment?”

Today on the Outcomes Over Hours Show, I had the pleasure of chatting to Khalid Kark, Director of the CIO Program at Deloitte.

Khalid and I discussed how the role of the CIO has changed over the past decade and Khalid’s insights into what’s next for Tech Leadership roles.

Something that really stood out for me was Khalid’s insights into the 2 key skills CIOs and Tech Leaders need now to effectively lead in a hybrid environment.

What are your thoughts on how Tech Leadership will evolve over the coming decade?

The Outcomes Over Hours Show with Leslie Witt, Headspace

“How are you role modelling wellbeing for your people?”

Today on the Outcomes Over Hours Show, I had the pleasure of chatting with Leslie Witt, Chief Product and Design Officer, at Headspace Health.

Leslie and I discussed how focusing on employee wellbeing is good for business, as well as the role the Headspace app is playing in contributing to data-driven business benefits.

Something that really stood out for me was Leslie’s insights into why looking after yourself makes you a better leader and role model for your team and their outcomes.

What’s the best example you’ve seen of a leader role modelling wellbeing in the workplace?
