What really makes a great leader? Andy Bird breaks it down with powerful insights and real-life lessons. Leadership isn't just about getting things done—it's about transformation. He reveals the three keys: Purpose (what change are you driving?), Partnership (how do you bring people with you?), and Performance (can you deliver results?). But here's the twist—not all leaders start with purpose. Some find it through collaboration.Bird shares hard-earned lessons from his own journey—how he struggled to engage his team until he realised he was pushing his vision, not theirs. The game changed when they co-created a shared purpose, and suddenly, people weren't just showing up—they were all in. He took the same approach to company culture, proving that listening, acting on feedback, and ditching top-down control can create an unstoppable team.But what about bad leadership? Bird exposes the biggest mistake leaders make—creating fear. Fear of failure, fear of speaking up. Great leaders challenge people, but they also support them. The best leaders inspire not by being perfect, but by being real. They listen, they adapt, and they set the tone for success. If you want to lead with impact, you don't just need to watch this—you need to live it.Powered By ActionCOACH Business Coaching: The Help You Need to Grow Your Business: https://business.actioncoach.co.uk/Take Your Business to New Heights: Book Your Spot at the UK's Biggest Business Event to hear from Global Thought Leaders and Industry Pioneers in 2025:https://thebizx.co.uk/ Hosted on Acast.

My guest today is Andy Bird, an independent leadership consultant, coach and author. Andy began his career over 30 years ago working for Unilever in the UK, South East Asia and India. He set up and led their pioneering Marketing Academy before moving on to become a Co-Founder of Brand Learning. Widely recognised for its distinctive client work and company culture, Brand Learning has since grown into a global capability consultancy and recently became part of Accenture. Today on the podcast, I'm chatting to Andy about being inspired. Being inspired can be a magnificent, invigorating feeling. But it's also one that we know surprisingly little about. Does it happen by chance? Are all forms of inspiration the same? Can we influence how and when we feel inspired? These are searching questions, particularly for people who take on the responsibilities and challenges of leadership. Given the tumultuous state of the world today, effective leadership throughout our organizations and communities has never been more important. Equally though, there has also never been greater pressure on leaders to perform and to provide inspirational leadership for their people and teams. Andy's book, The Inspired Leader, is based on extensive new research, conducted in association with Henley Business School, into the real life experiences of leaders from many different walks of life. Drawing on the latest behavioural science, Andy Bird explains how inspiration is actually experienced by people in positons of leadership. He also examines how they maintain it over time despite the many obstacles and challenges they face.
