What would it look like for leaders to foster a living systems culture that figures the organisation as a living organism constituted of other vital organisms (teams and people themselves) rather than as a machine made of exchangeable and reconfigurable parts?

Leaders set the tone for their organisations, not just through their vision but through their everyday interactions. The way leaders engage in conversations can either build trust and clarity or create confusion and disengagement.

The health of an organisation depends on leadership being practiced all the way down and throughout the business. For that reason a healthy, vital, organisation depends on fostering a culture of leadership that extends to,and shapes, the actions of all the people that make up that organisation.

The Art of saying No- You Can’t Give Everyone Everything They Want

Leadership is not just about managing tasks—it’s about inspiring people to work toward something meaningful. A strong purpose provides meaning, while a compelling vision sets direction. Together, they align your team, ignite passion, and foster collaboration, innovation, and success.

Leadership is not just about driving results or supporting your team—it’s also about understanding and nurturing yourself.

Great leaders know that to bring the best version of themselves to their role, they must focus on more than just the “work” version of who they are.

Understanding and embracing your personal values is one of the most important steps you can take on your leadership journey. Your values are the foundation of who you are and what you stand for. They serve as a guiding compass, influencing your decisions, behaviours, and relationships with others.

A critical aspect of leadership is accountability—not just for others but for themself. Leaders must create an environment where they can be respectfully called out when their behaviours are inappropriate or their behaviours negatively impact other people.

Leadership is about influence, trust, and the ability to inspire others. At its core, effective leadership relies on meaningful conversations—two-way, honest, and empathetic exchanges that build trust and foster growth.

Trust is the foundation of any successful team, but as a leader—especially a new one—it’s important to remember that trust is not guaranteed; it is earned. Building trust takes time, effort, communication, and consistent actions.
Building Trust
Trust is not just something you earn—it’s something you nurture every day.

Do you want to focus on getting the best out of your team?

Great leaders are able to understand what motivates each team member. These leaders know what they can do or say to increase a person’s intrinsic motivation and engagement at work.
