BONUS: Leading Without Blame, Building Resilient Teams with Tricia Broderick and Diana Larsen In this BONUS episode, leadership experts Tricia Broderick and Diana Larsen explore their latest book, Lead Without Blame, talking about how leaders can create high-performing teams without resorting to blaming. This conversation tackles the key themes from their book, and offers insights on how leaders can foster resilient, learning-focused teams. Understanding "Lead Without Blame" "Leadership isn't about finger-pointing; it's about creating an environment where learning and growth can flourish." Tricia and Diana kick off the conversation by breaking down what it means to lead without blame. They explore the impact of blame in the workplace, particularly how it stifles innovation, and erodes psychological safety. The authors stress the importance of making space for learning and acknowledge that many leaders, even unintentionally, perpetuate a culture of blame. "To lead without blame, focus on building a culture where learning is prioritized over finger-pointing." The Inspiration Behind the Book "Blame has always been a leadership issue, and this book was a way to address it head-on." Tricia and Diana share personal anecdotes that inspired the book. Tricia describes writing the book as therapeutic, reflecting on her past experiences as an executive who lacked the skills to prevent a blame culture. Diana highlights how pervasive blame is in toxic work environments and the urgent need for a shift in leadership approaches to create healthier, more supportive workplaces. "Our goal is to equip leaders with the tools they need to create environments where everyone can thrive without the fear of blame." From Knowledge Work to Learning Work "Learning is the evolution of knowledge work, and it's the foundation of resilient teams." The authors discuss the shift from traditional knowledge work to what they call "learning work." They explain that building resilient teams requires fostering an environment where continuous learning is encouraged and natural. Leaders must embrace the idea that learning is an ongoing process, crucial for adapting to changes like remote work and other modern challenges. "To build resilient teams, leaders must prioritize creating a learning environment where everyone is prepared to adapt and grow." The 4Cs of Learning Leaders "Courage, Compassion, Confidence, and Complexity—these are the pillars of effective leadership in today's world." Tricia and Diana introduce the "4Cs" of Learning Leaders—Courage, Compassion, Confidence, and Complexity. They emphasize that leadership is not just about hierarchical authority but about modeling these qualities at all levels within a team. Leaders must navigate uncertainty and complexity with confidence, showing their teams how to do the same. "True leadership is about embodying the 4Cs—showing courage, compassion, confidence, and understanding complexity in every situation." Leadership Through Learning "Leaders must exemplify the learning process, guiding their teams through growth and change." The authors explore the concept of "Leadership through Learning," where leaders actively engage in and model the learning process. They discuss essential motivators like shared purpose, autonomy, and co-intelligence, which are crucial for fostering a collaborative and innovative team environment. "Leadership through learning means being intentional about creating a space where your team can grow together." The Five Rules for Accelerated Learning In their book, Tricia and Diana outline "Five Rules for Accelerated Learning" that are essential for leaders looking to cultivate high-performing teams. These rules guide leaders in creating environments where learning is continuous, rapid, and deeply integrated into the team's daily work. "Accelerated learning happens when leaders set the right conditions and provide clear, actionable guidance." Managing Conflict with the Escalating Conflict Model "Healthy conflict is a sign of engagement, but it's crucial to recognize when it starts to become destructive." The authors discuss the "Escalating Conflict Model", which helps leaders identify and manage conflict stages within their teams. The model emphasizes recognizing when conflicts move from healthy disagreements to destructive behaviors and provides strategies for keeping conflicts constructive and focused on team goals. "Understanding the stages of conflict helps leaders intervene early and keep team dynamics positive." Maximizing Learning and Adaptation through Retrospectives "Retrospectives are not just about looking back—they're about learning and adapting for the future." Tricia and Diana highlight the importance of retrospectives in team development, emphasizing that these sessions are critical for continuous learning and adaptation. They offer practical advice on how leaders can conduct effective retrospectives that focus on purpose-relevant topics and foster a culture of open, constructive dialogue. "Use retrospectives as a tool to reinforce your team's shared goals and drive continuous improvement." Learn More About the Book The book is Lead Without Blame by Tricia Broderick and Diana Larsen.

Are team development strategies taken seriously in elite sport when viewed from a psycho-social perspective? This question was the motivation for my solo episode today where I chat about the use of team units and the benefits of working more closely in team units. As I share my thoughts and ideas, I refer to some of the key sub-measures of Mental Toughness from Peter Clough's 4Cs model. Key Learning Points Purposeful regular team building activities when working with small sub-groups in teams, squads and organisations can have a very positive impact on the overall culture. Individuals get to know each other better as people, their background, traits and lifestyle improving emotional intelligence across the group. Regular team building activities should include fun and light-hearted activities, team communication, problem solving and trust building activities. In mental toughness terms, for goal orientation and achievement orientation, players were hugely motivated to achieve team and individual goals, a high degree of accountability also was evident which then meant not many players got sidetracked from the goals that were set. Conflict, and disagreements happened however they was dealt with speedily, resolved and didn't distract from the collective goals. For learning orientation, there were many opportunities afforded to players to realise their full potential, with less blame and fear imposed. Closer bonds between players, knowing more about each other as people, helped the group prepare and deal with challenges.

Can you relate to the feeling of having a ton of responsibility with little or no authority as a Stepmom?

What makes a great captain in team sports? In this week's short solo episode I elaborate on this question where I focus on the 8 key sub-measures of Mental Toughness from Peter Clough's 4Cs model sharing my thoughts and ideas, some case studies and tips to help you, your players or students or your children. Key Learning Points When coaches face selection headaches often they choose the player that they trust more, the one who has some captaincy qualities, when dealing with difficult situations and pressure. As well as, performing competently on a consistent basis, captains need to be able to inspire confidence in their players, evaluate game plans and be flexible in their approach if circumstances dictate. The hallmark of a mentally tough captain is to deal with pressure well, they'll then make smarter decisions and communicate more effectively with their team-mates, coaches and the referee. A captain should be a leader, a skilled communicator, a calm decision maker, and an important link between team and coach. To remain calm perhaps create a 20 or 30 second rule, where you allow yourself time to settle, take in the event that has happened and breathe before reacting. Encouraging yourself and others with a positive “CAN DO” attitude is essential as a captain. When your team is behind in a game or struggling, a captain can really help a team by giving off an air of confidence to team-mates. Captains who encourage learning from mistakes and don't point the finger, playing the blame game can help team-mates play with more freedom.

In this episode, I'm talking with Luke Hohmann, founder and CEO of First Root, a company dedicated to helping improve the financial literacy taught in schools and getting children used to handling money – by giving them money to handle. Luke originally founded a software company that created a program on which you could run Participatory Budgeting, a collaborative process used by global brands and major cities to manage the finances of large projects. Luke realised that, if we wanted to create a better society for ourselves and our children, then these key lessons should be taught at school. As well as getting used to making financial decisions, the children learn what a good citizen looks like and how they can positively contribute to a community. In our conversation, we cover such topics as: how to run a participatory budgetary process, which teaches the value of money and accountability for decisions made; the 4Cs of 21st Century Education (Creativity, Critical Thinking, Communication and Collaboration) ; and how this all fits into a business context. At the end of the day, if we can all learn how to work together with something as emotive as money, we can work together on anything. If you want to know more about Luke, then take a look at the following links Luke's Website Luke's Linkedin Profile If interested in sponsoring a school So do check those out but for now sit back, relax, think about how you might be able to handle money better and, most of all, enjoy.
