"As a leader, my success is defined by how fast my team comes to me and says we've messed up, because at that point I can fix it."
Part two of this very special podcast with Andrew (Stotts) Stotter-Brooks turns the attention to leadership.
His approach is very down-to-earth and practical. Andrew has a special interest in Leadership and has usefully picked up on our work on Mental toughness and incorporated this into his thinking and his work.
Here we explore the imperative for leadership self-awareness and what is needed for leaders to be truly approachable to staff.
Andrew goes on to consider why many senior leaders believe they need to be perfect, and through this, they can miss opportunities for engagement.
Finally examining why openness to others works in practice. If mistakes are made, they can be corrected quoting Jeff Bezos "99% of decisions are relatively easy to reverse".
It is not a surprise that in October 2022 he was nominated as No 1 in a list of the ten most influential HR leaders in the United Arab Emirates.
Listen and learn.
