Welcome to this bitesize summer edition of Leadership Letters - the perfect place for a spot of insight and reflection for leaders.
In this episode, we listen to an open letter written at the start of the summer by the manager of the England Football team, Gareth Southgate, and read by Michael from the Anything Audio team. I actually recommended this letter https://www.theplayerstribune.com/posts/dear-england-gareth-southgate-euros-soccer in our last episode in our Leadership Lowdown, but felt there was so much to take from it, as leaders, we should allow ourselves a fresh listen, perspective and download.
The Euros aren't the only sport this summer dominating our spare time, and even our working hours at times! And I also wanted to highlight the stand taken by Simone Biles in stepping away from competition in the gymnastics at Tokyo 2020. Not only does she have the world talking about mental health, which is only a good thing, it allows me to highlight again a key part of leadership, it's not just what we do, but how we do it.
This is episode 3 of season 2 of Leadership Letters, so there's plenty of advice, tips, great guests and letters to delve back into when you wish, and you may also like to sign up to my Leadership Letter monthly email, that many episodes are based on here, https://www.thecausewaycoaching.com/leadership-letters
This is also where you can get in touch to offer your Leadership Lowdown recommendations, share your own Leadership Letter for us to feature on the podcast or let us know who you’d like to hear from as a guest.
