Moment 153. What REALLY Makes You More Resilient?

No Bullsh!t Leadership ·

2025/12/28

Resilient leadership isn’t about toughing it out, it’s about staying calm under pressure. Every leader likes to think they’re highly resilient. But many lack composure in high-stress situations (and also the self-awareness to admit it).Resilience is about regulating your own behaviour. But if you’re a leader, the real acid test is whether you have the mental, emotional, and psychological strength to support your team, so that they remain as calm as you do.If you want to take a deeper dive into how

Moment 152. Are Leaders Better Than Managers?

No Bullsh!t Leadership ·

2025/12/21

Leadership vs management: why great leaders must also manage to make better decisions. While the debates about leadership and management continue to rage, the truth is that they’re intrinsically linked: they live on a continuum, in a spectrum of subtle gradients.You can’t be a great leader unless you’re a good manager. And the converse is also true: you can’t be a great manager unless you’re a good leader.It’s complete nonsense to portray leadership and management as inherently good or bad.If you

2025/12/16

You worked hard in 2025. The real question is whether any of it actually mattered.Most leaders roll straight into a new year without ever stopping to review the last one properly.

You already have a leadership brand…the question is, does it serve you?Every leader shows up with a reputation. It might be clear and consistent…or vague, confusing, and accidental. Either way, your people have formed an opinion about who you are, what you value, and how you lead.This bumper episode covers the three practical building blocks of a strong leadership identity: clarity on your personal style and philosophy, a leadership brand built from the inside out, and a user manual that removes

When nothing feels black and white, these principles keep your leadership unshakable! A lot of the principles I espouse in No Bullsh!t Leadership are quite categorical… in order to convey the principles clearly and concisely, I explain them in a rather singular manner: “Do this! Don’t do that!”But nothing is that black and white, and the complexity and uncertainty of the environment can erode your confidence and weaken your resolve.If you want to have a deeper dive into how to be confident in the

How to spot (and stop) the koalas sabotaging your culture: nepotists, jerks, and ass-kissers. In Australia, koalas are a protected species. When one of the leaders in our No Bullsh!t Leaders Club started talking about the “koalas” in his company, I knew exactly what he meant.Working with koalas can be infuriating. They don’t play by the same rules, or observe the same cultural standards as everyone else. It’s almost as if they’re trying to see how far they can go before someone brings them into

Are your people truly empowered, or just waiting for permission? Find out here. “Empowerment” is a word that seems to be used in an increasingly offhanded, throw-away fashion. When that happens, it loses both its meaning and its power.But, despite the dumbing down of empowerment, it’s still one of the most critical ingredients of execution.If you can’t empower your people effectively, you’ll stymie them; they’ll never willingly accept the level of accountability that would supercharge their results,
