Diversity in a company is a powerful resource, but also a great challenge.
It is a valuable resource because it brings a range of perspectives and experiences to the table.
However, it can also be a challenge as it requires effective communication, inclusion, and respect for different viewpoints.
Embracing diversity as an asset and leveraging it through intentional leadership practices can lead to greater organizational creativity, innovation, and success.
Ask Simon Yoxon-Grant, CEO of TLScontact, a company with offices in 90 countries all around the world.
I have the pleasure to interview Simon for the 10th episode of "When Leaders Talk".
Simon is a true visionary leader who has been instrumental in driving his company's success. But what makes Simon truly remarkable is his deep commitment to diversity, inclusivity, and psychological safety in the workplace. He believes that creating a positive and supportive work environment is essential to unlocking the full potential of his team and achieving sustainable growth.
In our conversation, Simon shares his personal journey of overcoming adversity and how he turned a "failure" into a source of inspiration for his leadership style. We'll also discuss the importance of optimism, and a growth mindset in leadership, and how these qualities can help you navigate through the challenges of today's fast-paced and ever-changing business world.
Whether you're a seasoned leader or just starting on your leadership journey, this episode will inspire, entertain, and provide valuable insights and practical tips to help you become your best leader.
Enjoy it and let me know what you liked the most.

"When Leaders Talk" is about leadership and, most importantly, leaders. They tell their stories, experiences, and leadership style. I interview successful people coming from different environments and leading teams of diverse sizes, from big enterprises to small companies, to the individual level. We hear their tales of how they navigate life, how they face challenges and failures, and how they lead their team. We understand what is important to them, and what makes them strong leaders. These "masters of the sea" take us onboard their boats to show us how they cross the ocean and reach their destination safely and successfully.
I hope this episode will make you curious enough to listen to or view the next episodes.
