I thought it had to be something with the Voice where Sebastian is a judge, but no.Two things happened to Guy yesterday. One was a TikTok campaign that presumed that he was the person that brought Covid 19 into Australia brought about from some social media posts that placed him in Wuhan in November 2019 and his admission that he came back with flu-like systems.But that wasn't why he was trending.There is a campaign called #vaxthenation here in Australia, where musical and other celebrities have joined together to support the vaccination rollout.

One of the pervasuive thing that has occuured in the world is the de-evolution of leadership during this prolonger COVID crisis, especially in Australia. That may seem a harsh judgement for the political leaders who proudly proclaim they have kept use safe during this extended crisis. But the reality is that regardless of the strategy that has been used, the end is no closer. NO Closer. The states get locked down on a whisper of covid cases, WA has fundamentally become the new Hutt River Province and seceded from Australia.

As a leader, it is your job to lead by example. You set the tone for the team, and you provide your team with the motivation and encouragement they need to work their very best. Your job is to nurture and protect that team, so that they can do their very best work.This is something that is understood by very few managers and bosses. Instead, too many people believe that being a leader or a manager makes them infallible – and gives them a kind of supreme authority over their team.This is why they think it's okay to utilize a “do as I say, not as I do approach.”Join us at dumbleaders.com for more lessons from lousy leaders.

Welcome to 110 of The Dumb Leaders Podcast. Recently on the ABC here in Australia, i listened to an academic speak to recent research on how trust is low when it comes to government authorities.

The world is deeply hurt. Covid has created a much greater impact socially than anyone could ever have imagined. The larger companies have been remarkedly unaffected, in fact increasing profits and market share have been the norm rather than the exception, governments and beurocrats have been untouched, while small and medium enterprises have been hardest hit, industries have battled through unscathed. while Tourism and hospitality have been decimatedAnd during these times, the social justice messages have amplified and the celebration of the oppressed has magnified. The narrative is open in som many ways telling human beings they are inferior due to privilege and the system.Be critical in your thinking, ask questions and find your truth

Welcome to the TDL 106. Today I want to share a recent experience that occurred in my network, and I have labeled it the collision between Victimhood, Ego, and Delusion. I can't tell you, it doesn't end well.Let's start by providing some personal definitions.Victimhood, when you are telling yourself the story, life is unfair, it's always some else fault that you aren't getting ahead, that the world is fundamentally unfair and you blame the world for your predicament. You are the victim of your own storyEgo - can be healthy or it can be destructive, in this case, the ego and self-centredness is strong, but it's not founded on reality, it's founded on a delusional sense of importance, a delusional look at the value being brought to the world.Mixed with the ego, is the sense of status. Creation of a job title that sounds important, but in reality isn't as. Calling yourself a senior manager doesn't make you one. Importantly the perception that perks come with title and self-importance, creates entitlement and an expectation.Thanks for tuning in Check out dumbleaders.com for your library of lessons from lousy leaders.

Welcome to the Dumb Leaders Podcast. Today we are discussing Confirmation Bias. And I will share a real-world example occurring right now.Presently there is an post-election audit being completed "The  Arizona state senate used its subpoena power to take possession of all 2.1m ballots in Maricopa county and the machines that counted them, along with computer hard drives full of data. The audit is being conducted by a Florida company called Cyber Ninja"That's the news. The simple facts around the process. Depending on what news source you tune into you would have heard some of the following:- This will indicate fraud of a massive scale- This unprecedented audit is undermining the democratic process- This audit will lead to more audits in more states- The man who owns the company unfounded conspiracy theories around election results- The Democrats attempted to legally stop it through- Why would the democrats stop it if you didn't have anything to hideFor more lessons from Lousy Leaders get on over to The Dumb Leaders Handbook at dumbleaders.com.

The world is seemingly a mess, and everyone seems on contradictory paths on how to resolve it. COVID has certainly created the perfect storm in relation to our differences and our approach to lifeAnd now more than ever, our approach seems to be not of one for the greater benefit of the world, but one where we look for our echo chambers of like-minded people. Our thinking is swayed by the messages received, the stories we are listening to, our subsequent beliefs forged from them.For more lessons from Lousy Leaders get on over to The Dumb Leaders Handbook at dumbleaders.com.

Welcome to the Leadership Lessons and the Dumb Leaders PodcastToday I am sharing with you a very simple message and one that leaders need to hear.Leaders can often see themselves as built proof. They see themselves as the ones that lead the way, channeling their energy to keep the team on top of things and to get the best possible outcomes for the organizationWe may have a belief of being stoic, of being the martyr, invincible and bulletproof.It is great to see a changing of the guard in this respect. Seeing yourself as invincible is the short way to create burnout, health issues and ultimately make poor decisions from leader fatigue.Check out all the episodes and articles from The Dumb Leaders Handbook at https://dumbleaders.com where you can learn the lessons from lousy leaders.

Our final installment of this three-part series of the lesson from a downfall of a presidentToday is the final piece of the puzzle - the uprising at the capital and the inaugurationBefore I get started I may just re-iterate, I am not a Trump fan, and what happened at the capitol was disgraceful.  There are still far too many questions in relation to the uprising. This gathering wasn't a secret,  yet for all intents and purposes, the police and security were woefully unprepared. Videos of barriers being moved aside by the police, protesters being let in through doors. A lot of this donet make sense
