Meeting expectation (or not) depends on multiple factors. It’s so much more involved than people simply doing what you ask them to do. Many highly accomplished business leaders shy away from making bold decisions when it comes to managing people. They communicate the standard and then allow people to fall […]

A proven track record can be favourable or disadvantageous. We tend to think of a proven track record as being a predictor of future behaviour when making a new appointment; the assumption being a positive outcome. Beware of developing a negative track record! It’s quicker to build a reputation for […]

Whenever I raise a question or express uncertainty in my own life, some friends (not all) will say “Well you should know, you’re the coach” – helpful, not. There seems to be an underlying assumption that my role is to listen and offer insight to their narrative; whereas, in my […]

A friend, currently living in India, circulated a video of their gardener mowing the lawn. Rather than using a lawn mower (which I am reassured they do possess), he was trimming the grass on his hands and knees with a pair of pruning shears! Several thoughts popped into my head, […]

It’s common knowledge that our latest England manager has lost his job, after he was filmed offering advice on how to ‘get around’ rules on player transfers. Given his unreserved excitement at having finally secured his dream role, and to lose it again after one game in charge; we can […]

An analogy used by one Senior Manager to describe the differences between his team and their Managing Director. The MD is likened to a speed boat travelling at eye-watering speeds; worlds apart from the larger plodding liner. The team are compared with a ship designed to transport people from one […]

Do you sometimes feel inspired to do something; even motivated enough to get started; only to realise a week, a month, a year later that it’s still on one of your earlier ‘To Do’ lists? Phew. I’m relieved to hear that I’m not on my own! Yes, it happened to […]

The vast majority of small businesses – and the people who found them – remain today what they were when they started: jobs for the people who created them. They set themselves up to do what they love (I hope), but have not learned how to build a business; which […]

Whilst many more people are branching out on their own; the majority continue to work for someone else. And that puts the responsibility for employee retention squarely on the employer’s shoulders. And as the business grows, it’s easy to lose sight of what the company is trying to achieve. This […]

It used to surprise me which aspects of a company communication people heard. Rarely would it be the facts. Given that I’ve always operated in senior management positions, I’ve been privy to the intended messages coming from the top; and often witnessed a mismatch between what management were trying to […]

Inevitably there are growing pains associated with a new company start up; and I look back with pride at how well I navigated through those early years. Determined not to become one of the 80% of businesses that fail within twelve months of opening their doors (or any year since […]

A client asked me why some people work hard and it feels like play; whilst others are drained by it and feel every minute of the effort they put in. At the point of asking they were feeling miserable about how little time they had to get stuff done. I […]

There’s a lot of information on the web about decision-making if you care to look for it. This would suggest it’s a topic of interest; perhaps because we have to make decisions every single day and maybe because we don’t always get it right. Sometimes, it can feel like we’ve […]

It’s been all over the news this week that Kevin Pietersen will not play for the England cricket team this summer after Andrew Strauss, Director of Cricket said there was a “massive trust issue” between them. Having been sacked by England in 2014 and told he would never play for […]

Looking forward to a one day ‘Train the Trainer’ programme I’d booked to attend, I was brimming with enthusiasm and imagining the many different ways I would be able to use the material with clients. The end product turned out to be a let-down. The content wasn’t the issue; it […]
