No Bullsh!t Leadership

Episode #311 // In this episode I cover 12 things that you’ll instinctively resist on your leadership journey. Not all of you will resist all of them, obviously. But I suspect that you’ll instinctively try to avoid or ignore at least a few of these principles.There’s no doubt in my mind that these principles are rock solid. They’re like gravity… they operate the same way on all of us, whether we believe in them or not! And they will ultimately have a huge bearing on how successful you are, as a leader. The episode is pretty simple… I outline each of the 12 hard leadership truths, one-by-one. I’ve also created a free PDF downloadable, so that you can keep a cheat sheet handy.————————DOORS ARE NOW OPEN FOR THE LEADERSHIP BEYOND THE THEORY SEPTEMBER 2024 COHORT!

Moment #81 // During the pandemic, work became performance art for many, as they pursued the goal of looking busy, rather than actually delivering real, value-adding work.This wasn’t a particularly new innovation: there’s always been a fair share of people in the office who did exactly this—appearing to be busy while achieving little. For leaders, it has definitely become trickier to identify and deal with these people than it was in the past. How can you tell when someone is substituting the demonstration of their own busyness for real work that produces real value?If you want to take a deeper dive into how you get greater visibility over your talent, have a listen to Ep.178: Visibility in a Remote World.————————BIG NEWS: Enrollments for the September 2024 LIVE cohort of Leadership Beyond the Theory are now open!

Episode #310 // Join the free bootcamp here! Over the last several months, a lot of leaders have told us that their companies are hunkering down, in a virtual promotion freeze… so, we poked around to see if there was any data to support these anecdotal observations, and came across an interesting statistic.According to Bloomberg, of the 68 million white collar workers in the US, only 1.3% were promoted in the first quarter of 2024 — the lowest percentage in 5 years.At times like these, it’s even tougher to stand out, which is why we decided to run a free 3-day bootcamp, 10x-ing Your Promotability, where I outlined my three fail proof strategies to deal with an ultra-competitive labor market.In this episode, we replay Day 1 of the Bootcamp, which covers the first strategy — Elevate Your Leadership Presence.Apart from a few interesting stories from my own career, I covered why your leadership brand is so important… and I gave you a practical tool to help you clarify and communicate that brand to the people around you.If you’d like to get your hands on the tool, you can download it at www.yourceomentor.com/episode310.WANT TO JOIN US LIVE FOR THE REST OF THE BOOTCAMP?

Moment #80 // Hiring really good people has always been hard. There’s serious competition for talent in many industries, and limitations in your potential candidate pools that arise from your geographical footprint, your industry, and the public perception of your brand.But, even when you do get the right people to turn up at your front door, there are factors at play that may prevent you from achieving the best hiring outcome.How do you ensure that you’re getting access to the best talent, and working out who’s the best fit for your team?If you want to take a deeper dive into how you can manage these complex issues, have a listen to Ep.237: Hiring Better People.————————FREE QUIZ: I’ve developed a 3-question quiz that’ll give you a free personalized podcast playlist tailored to where you are right now in your leadership career!Click here to take the 30-second quiz now to get your on-the-go playlist————————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 purpose here at Your CEO Mentor is to improve the quality of leaders, globally. 

Episode #309 // We rarely do interviews on No Bullsh!t Leadership. But when Patrick Lencioni’s team reached out to us earlier this year, we jumped at the opportunity to have him join us on the podcast. Patrick Lencioni is a global thought leader, who has established himself as one of the preeminent thinkers of our generation in the field of leadership and organizational behavior. Pat has written more than a dozen books, which are incredibly easy to absorb and apply – some of the most practical content you’ll find. His seminal work, The Five Dysfunctions of a Team, has sold over 3 million copies, making it one of the highest-selling business books ever written. With such an impressive body of work, which he adds to every week with his two podcasts, At the Table and  Working Genius, it was hard to know where to start. I decided to have an open conversation with Pat about some of the key issues that are facing leaders in 2024 and beyond.Our conversation went for well over an hour, so this episode is the first part of the interview, where we discuss hybrid work and courage in leadership.————————FREE QUIZ: I’ve developed a 3-question quiz that’ll give you a free personalized podcast playlist tailored to where you are right now in your leadership career!Click here to take the 30-second quiz now to get your on-the-go playlist————————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. 

Moment #79 // Over the course of your leadership career, you’ll deal with people from all walks of life, many different cultures, and a range of socio-economic backgrounds… and you’ll see just about every dimension of human frailty.As part of this melting pot,you’ll lead many people who have substance abuse and mental health issues. Learning to recognize and deal with these (without crossing a line) is often incredibly difficult.If you want to take a deeper dive into how you can manage these complex issues, have a listen to Ep.97: Addiction in the Workplace.————————FREE QUIZ: I’ve developed a 3-question quiz that’ll give you a free personalized podcast playlist tailored to where you are right now in your leadership career!Click here to take the 30-second quiz now to get your on-the-go playlist————————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. 

Episode #308 // It’s pretty rare that you’re faced with a decision that’s final or irreversible. And when one comes along, it’s normally pretty easy to recognize — you can sense the gravity of the moment, and the potential consequences that lie ahead. But, as I look back on my experiences, some of the most significant decisions I’ve ever made, in terms of my life direction, didn’t seem to be that big a deal at the time. I made them using a liberal dose of gut feel, not suspecting for a moment how consequential they would ultimately turn out to be.I recently had occasion to think about one of the most pivotal moments in Emma’s life, which also had a profound effect on mine. For those of you who don’t know, Em is my daughter. She’s also the producer of the No Bullsh!t Leadership podcast, and CEO of our business, Your CEO Mentor. I was reflecting on the path that led us to where we are now, and it took me back to a brief but pivotal moment which, to tell you the truth, could have gone either way.This episode is packed with examples, including Em’s story. I hope that it helps you to recognize these unexpected moments when they arrive in your career, and to respond accordingly. You can never know, at the time, how critical these decisions will be… which is why you have to be prepared for every moment!————————YOU'RE INVITED TO: THE 10X YOUR LEADERSHIP PROMOTABILITY BOOTCAMPRUNNING FROM: 6-8 August, 2024Join my free LIVE 3-session bootcamp where I’ll share 3 proven strategies to accelerate your career advancement.Don’t miss out on this opportunity to unlock your potential and secure your next promotion.

Moment #78 // Most successful founders face a problem as their business grows: the attributes that made them successful in the first place (e.g. innovation, hard work, tenacity, sales skills etc.) become obstacles to future performance.Many unintentionally create a family culture. This might feel really nice, but it’s often mutually exclusive with the disciplined, constructive culture that ultimately underpins exceptional performance.Whether you’re a business owner, or just trying to work out how to improve your team’s performance, don’t let a family culture impede your success.If you want to take a deeper dive into how you can avoid the performance pitfalls of a family culture, have a listen to Ep.76: The Family Affair and Ep.180: The Family Culture.————————FREE 5 DAY LEADERSHIP CHALLENGE: Want to boost your leadership capability?

Episode #307 // There’s a lot to be said for having confidence. It’s an essential ingredient for any leader who aspires to lift their people to greater heights.Without confidence, it’s difficult to effectively execute on even the most fundamental tasks that competent leadership requires.Confidence is incredibly valuable… and you can’t fake it!But, I feel as though it’s been getting a bad rap lately — confidence comes with a range of negative connotations, and those who are less confident often mistake it for insincerity, bluster, or even the inappropriate use of power.My observation, made over many years operating at the highest levels, is that confidence is an essential ingredient of high performance leadership. This is why it’s so important to focus on your own level of confidence, to understand what you need to do to increase it, and to know how to keep the dark side of confidence at bay.————————FREE 5 DAY LEADERSHIP CHALLENGE: Want to boost your leadership capability?
