How To Speak Up In High-Powered Meetings
2026/10/20
How many times have you sat in a room full of senior people, thinking about making a great point, but never actually speaking up?
In this episode, I show you how to take that step without sounding arrogant, making it personal, or risking your credibility.
You have to do your homework, find a small insight that drives a big improvement, and bring it into the room in a way that gets heard… without putting anyone’s nose out of joint.
Along the way, we’ll have a bit of fun as I tell you about how I became one of the Three Blond Gumbies, the golf tip that added 30 metres to my drive, and my all-time favourite opening line for a high-stakes meeting.

What the Best CEOs Do Differently: 8 Lessons From 8 Years of CEO Mentoring
2026/10/13
You never know what to expect when mentoring CEOs.
Some run the most boring businesses you could imagine, but they generate enormous value. Other companies may seem sexy on the outside, but struggle to make ends meet.
One CEO watched his revenue fall off a cliff with the stroke of a bureaucrat’s pen.
Today I’m sharing eight lessons from eight years of mentoring CEOs; and you don’t need to be in the CEO’s chair to use them!
It’s everything from strategic clarity, to not getting distracted by shiny things, to backing your talent.

How to Prioritise as a Leader: 7 Ways to Stop Doing Too Much
2026/10/06
The hardest thing I ever tried to do as an executive was to stop the sh!t that had already started: it gets a life of its own.
On top of that, new work is being dreamt up all the time, further adding to your prioritisation nightmare.
A recent article from The Economist argued that too many people are shockingly bad at prioritisation, and that the root cause isn't process; it's behaviour.
I couldn't agree more. In this episode, I'll unpack what the research says, then give you seven practical ways to get on top of your prioritisation problems, starting with the one thing most leaders never get clear on: value.

Why Transformations Fail: 5 Reasons, and 3 Ways to Cope When It's Done to You
2026/09/29
Most transformations don't transform all that much. They cost a lot of money, they suck a huge amount of the organisation's time and energy, and no one really checks to see if the benefits were ever delivered.
If you're not on the executive team, the whole thing just happens to you. But in reality, you're not as powerless as you might think.
In this episode, I dig into what transformation really is, why so few programs actually earn that label and, most importantly, why so many transformations fail.
I unpack a recent cover story from Harvard Business Review on the false alignment trap, which provides a really useful starting point for the discussion; I then add five more common reasons for transformation disasters; and I finish with three practical ways to get a hand on the wheel when transformation is being done to you.

How to Fix a Team Performance Slump: 3 Cracks to Check First | Moment 192
2026/09/27
You may think that rolling up your sleeves and doing your team’s work is leading from the front. But it’s actually a bad habit that’s diluting your people’s capability.
Every time you get involved in the nitty gritty of your people’s work, you’re trading away the opportunity to build capability for achieving a fast, high-quality result.
The job at every level is different. You need to be clear on what your job is, and you need to stay in your lane and do it!
If you want to take a deeper dive into how to support your team without robbing them of the opportunity to build their skill and capability, have a listen to Ep.391: Do Hands-on Leaders Get Better Results?.

3. Work at Level. Are you leading at the right altitude, or stuck in the weeds? (Ep.420: http://www.yourceomentor.com/episode420)
4. Deliver Value. Are you focused on outcomes that matter, or just ticking boxes? (Ep.421: http://www.yourceomentor.com/episode421)
5. Make Great Decisions. Are you decisive when it counts, or do you overthink it? (Ep.422: http://www.yourceomentor.com/episode422)

5 Reasons Why One-on-Ones Are Your Secret Weapon
2026/09/22
Airbnb CEO, Brian Chesky says he doesn't believe in one-on-ones. I couldn’t disagree more, so in this episode I show you why sometimes, even the best CEOs get this one wrong.
Chesky says the 1:1 model is flawed. Not only does he not do them, but he asserted that almost no great CEO does either. To support his point, he quoted Nvidia CEO, Jensen Huang, backing a similar view.
Here's the problem: I think it's wrong. Not a little bit wrong, but fundamentally wrong for the vast majority of leaders who aren't running a flat, product-driven tech company.
I spent thirty years perfecting the one-on-one, and it's the single most powerful tool I ever had as a leader. In this episode, I take Chesky's argument apart, point by point, and give you five reasons why the one-on-one is still your secret weapon.

Business Acumen vs Leadership: Which One Drives Performance?
2026/09/15
During my tenure as CEO at CS Energy, we took EBITDA from $17m to $441m: we more than doubled the company’s earnings for four consecutive years.
Along the way, I had to dig deep into two distinct toolkits: my business acumen, and my leadership capability.
When it comes to career advancement, there’s no substitute for building a strong track record of achievement. Performance is the undeniable resume builder. So, in the search for elite performance, what role does each capability play?
In this episode, I compare my Magnificent 7 areas of business acumen with the seven pillars of high-performance leadership from my WSJ bestselling book, No Bullsh!t Leadership, and I tell you how important I think each one is.

Power Doesn't Corrupt: It Reveals | Moment 190
2026/09/13
Some leaders remain uncorrupted, despite the fact that they move into increasingly powerful positions.
But there are others who, at every turn, leverage whatever power they have to further their own self-interest.
A leader who abuses their power wasn’t corrupted by it: they’re just using the power they have, in a way that’s entirely consistent with the person they’ve always been.
If you want to take a deeper dive into the dynamics of leadership power, have a listen to Ep.5: Using Power Wisely.

How to Stay Calm Under Pressure: 6 Signs Your Team Knows
2026/09/07
You may think that you’re highly resilient, an expert at staying calm under pressure… but your team could be experiencing something completely different. They're the ones who see your lack of composure.
If you panic, that leaks onto your team. And every minute they spend managing your mood is a minute they don't spend delivering results.
This is the final instalment in our 7-part series, recut from a live workshop I ran called Stop Rescuing Your Underperformers. I've been looking at one leadership blind spot each day.
There's a person on your team who isn't delivering, and the premise I'm exploring this week is that they're more likely to be a symptom of the problem, rather than the root cause of it.
Underperformers are made. They're made by the things their leaders do, but can't see the impact of.
Today is number seven: Resilience. Are you a Landmine Leader? A Teflon Leader? A Catatonic Leader? Your people know which one you are, and no amount of “game face” can cover it up.
So before you decide your team is withholding bad news from you, look at yourself first: are you creating an environment where they can bring you anything? Or do they have to worry about reading your mood first?
If you want to fix your blindspots, doors for the next global cohort of Leadership Beyond the Theory close on 25th September. Invest 9-weeks to set yourself up for a lifetime of exceptional leadership performance.

How to Make Decisions Faster: 6 Signs They're Waiting on You
2026/09/06
When you hesitate on an important decision, it’s rarely due to missing data or insufficient consultation. It's more likely because you're afraid of getting it wrong.
And as long as you delay, your people have to wait. There may be a whole string of decisions below you that can’t be made until you make yours… and if your people have to wait too long, they may just stop chasing you.
This is Day 6 of a 7-part series, recut from a live workshop I ran called Stop Rescuing Your Underperformers. I'm looking at one leadership blind spot each day.
There's a person on your team who isn't delivering, and the premise I'm exploring this week is that they're more likely to be a symptom of the problem, rather than the root cause of it.
Underperformers are made. They're made by the things their leaders do, but can't see the impact of.
Today is number six: Make Great Decisions. For every decision sitting on your desk, there are likely 10 below you that can't be made until you make yours. Your delay becomes a roadblock to progress for your team.
So before you decide your team is too slow, look at yourself first: are you decisive when it counts, or are you the reason everything below you grinds to a halt?

The 7 Leadership Blind Spots, one a day:
1. Drive Accountability. Do people deliver for you, or do they make excuses? (Ep.418)
2. Handle Conflict. Can you have the tough conversations that weak leaders avoid? (Ep.419)
3. Work at Level. Are you leading at the right altitude, or stuck in the weeds? (Ep.420)
4. Deliver Value. Are you focused on outcomes that matter, or just ticking boxes? (Ep.421)
5. Make Great Decisions. Are you decisive when it counts, or do you overthink it? (Ep.422)
6. Master Ambiguity. Can you make decisions when you don't have all the answers? (Ep.423)
7. Build Resilience. Do you stay calm when everything's falling apart? (Ep.424)
Tomorrow, blind spot seven, and it's the last one. Nobody thinks it applies to them. Build resilience.
