No Bullsh!t Leadership

Imagine if one of your people was delivering more value than eight of their peers: leading them the same way you lead everyone else would be a complete waste.I’ve often said, “Your high performers don’t give you 10% more than the average employee… they give you 200% more.”But even that grossly underestimates the impact of the highest performers. In this Moment, I give you five ways to ensure you get the most out of your superstars.If you want to take a deeper dive into how to harness the value of your top talent, have a listen to Ep.315: Getting the Most From Your Stars.————————You can connect with me at:Website: https://www.yourceomentor.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/yourceomentorInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/yourceomentorLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/martin-moore-075b001/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@YourCEOMentor————————Our mission here at Your CEO Mentor is to improve the quality of leaders, globally.You're still doing the work your team should own.

You never know what to expect when mentoring CEOs.Some run the most boring businesses you could imagine, but they generate enormous value. Other companies may seem sexy on the outside, but struggle to make ends meet. One CEO watched his revenue fall off a cliff with the stroke of a bureaucrat’s pen.Today I’m sharing eight lessons from eight years of mentoring CEOs; and you don’t need to be in the CEO’s chair to use them!It’s everything from strategic clarity, to not getting distracted by shiny things, to backing your talent.————————If you're a CEO who would like to explore mentoring with Marty in 2027, reach out at hello@yourceomentor.com ————————Links mentioned in this episode:No Bullsh!t Leadership episode: Ep.183: Mentors, Coaches, and Trusted AdvisorsAmazon link: No Bullsh!t LeadershipLBT link: Leadership Beyond the Theory————————You can connect with me at:Website: https://www.yourceomentor.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/yourceomentorInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/yourceomentorLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/martin-moore-075b001/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@YourCEOMentor————————Our mission here at Your CEO Mentor is to improve the quality of leaders, globally.

In leadership, difficult conversations come with the territory. So, if your goal is to make everyone happy… go work in a donut shop!If you want a career that lives up to your potential then, paradoxically, your ability to handle the hardest conversations is an entry-level skill.In this Moment, I share three tips to help you stop bargaining with yourself, and step into any conflict with confidence.If you want to take a deeper dive into how you can nail your most difficult discussions, have a listen to Ep.312: Your 5 Hardest Conversations.————————You can connect with me at:Website: https://www.yourceomentor.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/yourceomentorInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/yourceomentorLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/martin-moore-075b001/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@YourCEOMentor————————Our mission here at Your CEO Mentor is to improve the quality of leaders, globally.

The hardest thing I ever tried to do as an executive was to stop the sh!t that had already started: it gets a life of its own. On top of that, new work is being dreamt up all the time, further adding to your prioritisation nightmare. A recent article from The Economist argued that too many people are shockingly bad at prioritisation, and that the root cause isn't process; it's behaviour. I couldn't agree more. In this episode, I'll unpack what the research says, then give you seven practical ways to get on top of your prioritisation problems, starting with the one thing most leaders never get clear on: value.Links mentioned in this episode:No Bullsh!t Leadership episodes: Ep.340: Driving a High-Impact Value FocusThe Economist article: Too many people are shockingly bad at prioritisationLinkedIn link: Rhonda McSweeneyAmazon link: No Bullsh!t LeadershipLBT link: Leadership Beyond the Theory————————You can connect with me at:Website: https://www.yourceomentor.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/yourceomentorInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/yourceomentorLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/martin-moore-075b001/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@YourCEOMentor————————Our mission here at Your CEO Mentor is to improve the quality of leaders, globally.

When was the last time you told one of your people exactly where they stood? If you can't remember, this Moment's for you.Your people deserve the truth, even when it's the last thing they want to hear… and the last thing you want to tell them.If you want to take a deeper dive into why you should tell your people what they need to hear, have a listen to Ep.329: Don't Feed Your People's Delusion.Links mentioned:- Episode 329, Don't Feed Your People's Delusion: https://www.yourceomentor.com/episode329 - Related episode 348, How to Overcome Your Fear of Feedback: https://www.yourceomentor.com/episode348 - Related episode 22, Feedback Made Easy: https://www.yourceomentor.com/episode22 ————————You can connect with me at:Website: https://www.yourceomentor.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/yourceomentorInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/yourceomentorLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/martin-moore-075b001/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@YourCEOMentor————————Our mission here at Your CEO Mentor is to improve the quality of leaders, globally.

Most transformations don't transform all that much. They cost a lot of money, they suck a huge amount of the organisation's time and energy, and no one really checks to see if the benefits were ever delivered.If you're not on the executive team, the whole thing just happens to you. But in reality, you're not as powerless as you might think.In this episode, I dig into what transformation really is, why so few programs actually earn that label and, most importantly, why so many transformations fail.I unpack a recent cover story from Harvard Business Review on the false alignment trap, which provides a really useful starting point for the discussion; I then add five more common reasons for transformation disasters; and I finish with three practical ways to get a hand on the wheel when transformation is being done to you.

You may think that rolling up your sleeves and doing your team’s work is leading from the front.
