No Bullsh!t Leadership

Companies that are really good in a crisis are often poorly managed: their people get addicted to the adrenaline rush that comes with constantly being in firefighting mode.The best way to manage a crisis, by far, is to avoid it altogether… which takes a lot of boring, proactive work. But well-run businesses are proactive.If you want to go deeper on how to lead when the crisis does hit, have a listen to Ep.82: Leading Through Crisis————————Have you taken our free Leadership Blindspot test?✨ In just 5 minutes you’ll uncover the hidden leadership habits holding you back.Get your Blindspot Score and know exactly what to fix before it costs your career!TAKE THE FREE TEST HERE————————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. 

What if the single biggest lever for creating value in your business wasn't actually in your business at all? What if it was an alliance forged with another company?The inspiration for this topic came from an episode of the Acquired podcast, which took a deep dive into the Formula One motor racing business.F1 isn’t just a sport: it's a compelling case study in how to create value through alliances. This is a transformation story about turning a highly-fragmented, amateurish pastime for European elites into a $60bn global juggernaut.In this episode, I'll show you exactly how that happened; I’ll take you behind the scenes of one of the most valuable alliances I was part of during my own corporate career; and I’ll distil these examples to draw out 5 rules for multiplying value through alliances.Want the FREE Alliance Playbook?

Most leaders do enough to get by. A select few do extra. And that gap is almost the entire difference between a career that stagnates and one that accelerates. If you want to reach the pinnacle of your personal potential, it starts with your decision to do more than the next person. In this episode, I give you 6 ways to focus your extra effort so that it pays you back in multiples.A friend of mine passed a book onto me a couple of weeks ago. It’s the autobiography of a rugby player by the name of Brad Thorn, and it’s a cracking read, titled Champions do Extra.Not a little extra. Not extra when it’s convenient. Extra when it’s hard. Extra when no one’s watching. Extra when the result is uncertain, and the work has to be done now.During his impressive career, Thorn represented two different countries in two different rugby codes. He was still competing at the highest level at the ripe old age of 41, before going on to become a head coach.I know that most of you aren’t rugby players, so how does this principle translate to the world of leadership?Well, in this episode, I’m going to explain why discomfort is a door to unlock, rather than a barrier to prevent you from progressing.Source Material:No Bullsh!t Leadership episodes: Ep.384: 10 Ways To Make Your Success Inevitable Ep.138: It’s Not What You Know Ep.130: Counterintuitive Truths Ep.311: 12 Hard Leadership TruthsAmazon link: Champions Do ExtraWikipedia link: Brad ThornLBT link: Leadership Beyond the Theory————————Have you taken our free Leadership Blindspot test?✨ In just 5 minutes you’ll uncover the hidden leadership habits holding you back.Get your Blindspot Score and know exactly what to fix before it costs your career!TAKE THE FREE TEST HERE————————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.
