Welcome to the show!
Susan is 'That Irish Lady' on LinkedIn!😄
We had a wonderful chat about her work and new book 'Leading beyond the numbers'.
Susan's background was originally in accounting, but she became more interested in working with people and moved into coaching/personal development.
She explores the connection between accounting / numbers and human emotions / the brain's "body budgeting".
We discuss the importance of embracing variation and different perspectives, rather than falling into groupthink. Leaders should foster an environment open to this variation.
Self-reflection, awareness of your impact on others, and being present are key for effective leadership and collaboration.
Susan uses the metaphor of an organization as a living "body" - all parts are interconnected, so losing one part impacts the whole. She also highlights the value of the "messy middle" - the transitional journey between deciding on change and executing it, which is often neglected.
The ONE Thing:
Effective leadership requires self-awareness, openness to variation/different perspectives, and focusing not just on the end goal but on navigating the inevitably "messy" transition process to get there. Leaders should embrace this messiness as an opportunity for co-creation rather than trying to follow a rigid linear path.
We hope you enjoy the episode!
