In this episode Shelley speaks with Fiona Preston, experienced senior leader across a variety of industries, about all things leadership. Fiona says “the role of a leader is to help their people to learn, thrive and fail!”.
They talk about the need for humility - where leaders can admit when they’re wrong, which in turn, allows them to deliberately tune into what might be making others uncomfortable. It also gives them the courage to ask for help and use the strengths of their people rather than taking it all on themselves.
They also talk about how pomegranates are like leadership and whether to chew or swallow the seeds whole!
