Episode 158: From Hero to Human – High performance at work starts with how you treat your people. Guest: Magda Snowden, Transformational Coach & Former Healthcare Leader

Matt Marney

In this episode, Matt speaks with Magda Snowden, a transformational coach with over 20 years of experience in healthcare leadership. Magda now uses her leadership experience to help organisations build stronger teams, develop better leaders, and improve performance at both individual and organisational levels.

Together, they explore what really happens when organisations shift from “hero leadership” to human-centred leadership.

In this conversation, they explore:

  • What psychological safety actually is and why it matters
  • The real meaning of engagement and how it shows up in teams
  • Why allowing staff to make mistakes improves learning, innovation, and teamwork
  • How psychologically safe environments drive collaboration, cooperation, and new ideas
  • Why treating staff well is not just ethical, it is good for the bottom line
  • Why gaining buy-in from senior leadership can be challenging
  • Practical strategies for teams to create safer, more supportive working environments
  • How purpose, communication, and trust drive performance

Whether you are leading an organisation, managing a team, or influencing culture from the middle, this episode offers practical insight into how better people practices lead to better business outcomes.
