The Dynamic Leader Podcast #240. Interview with Hannes van Rensburg on the power of care
In this episode, Shelley sits down with Hannes van Rensburg to explore the transformative power of care in leadership. Alongside his partner Siew-Fang, Hannes co-authored The Power of Care and co-founded the leadership consultancy Bento Box of Care, which champions the importance ofleading with compassion and purpose.
Reflecting on a pivotal moment in 2008 while drafting afive-year plan and overseeing workplace health and safety, Hannes began to understand the deep connection between organisational culture and genuine care. This sparked a journey toward what he now calls a Culture of Care.
Together, Shelley and Hannes dive into the Bento Box model and discuss how care—often sidelined in high-pressure leadership roles—can be the key to inspiring meaningful change, maintaining personal wellbeing, and reshaping the boundaries between leaders and their teams.
