This week I talk about the often-debated topic of leadership styles: being people-focused versus being effective (results-oriented).

Can a leader truly prioritise their team's well-being and development while also driving high performance and achieving goals?

I explore the assumptions and stereotypes surrounding these two approaches and make a compelling case for why effective leadership requires a balance of both. 

Learn how you can be a compassionate leader without sacrificing productivity and learn why the most successful leaders are those who care for their teams as much as they care about outcomes.

In this episode, you will learn:

• What it means to be a people-focused leader v.s. results-oriented, and the key aspects of both
• Common assumptions made about these two leadership styles
• How to integrate both approaches and become a balanced leader
• How true effectiveness arises within teams and supports individuals to perform better
• What results in greater productivity, loyalty, and wellbeing from the team
  
  

Leadership is a skill that you develop and grow overtime. These are the foundations, so make sure you tune in to find out more about them.
