This is another podcast in our series about the actual things that leaders do.
This time Richard, Rob and Ricky talk feelings! In particular, they discuss the leader’s role in managing feelings; dealing with conflict, smoothing over loss when difficult decisions need to be made and most importantly creating a psychologically safe environment where people can flourish.
Leaders who ignore the people elements of the role risk damaging their own productivity and put their underlying purpose at risk.
This podcast is part of a series about the role of leaders, exploring the nuts and bolts of what leaders need to do. It is based on a model (we created) to help aspiring leaders work out what it means to be a leader.
You can find the model, and details of all the areas at www.thinkingfocus.com/what-is-leadership
