This week I caught up with Wendy Born - I loved this chat with Wendy about leadership. Wendy has recently written a book called Raising Leaders - using the principles of parenting at work to to become a great leaders and create great leaders.
Wendy says that when you observe the behaviour of leaders you admire, you will see similarities between them and your own experiences as a child or parent.
We started off the show with a quote from Wendy's book that talks about comparing yourself to who you were and not others! Such great advice.
We talked Wendy's 5 leadership principles of Love, Environment, Health, Language and Vision.
This discussion is all about what good leadership looks like and creating connection with your team and what to do when you are struggling with this.
We even talked about putting our children on performance plans!
