Hey everyone, in this Learning Tech Talks, I had an absolutely enlightening conversation with the incredible Ben Brooks, Founder & CEO of PILOT. We took on leadership and all the ambiguity that comes with it. Through the dialogue, we deconstructed what leadership really means and how to strike that balance between guiding firmly and letting innovation soar. Ever wondered about the sweet spot between a tight-fisted grip and a laissez-faire approach in leadership? We touched upon that and SO much more. We brought forward a number of compelling reasons why we need to redefine leadership, underlining the immense value of diverse perspectives and opportunities for employee growth. If "What defines an empowering workplace?" is a question on your mind, our discussion might just illuminate some answers. Hopefully this conversation helps you recognize leadership is more than a title; it's a universal suite of things that everyone need to do well, albeit with their own unique flavor depending on their situation. ***** Chapters ****** 0:00 - Introductions 4:09 - What Is Leadership? 16:59 - Why Getting It Right Matters 27:18 - Shared Responsibility Between Managers & Employees 36:28 - Making Leadership Development Accessible 49:09 - Leaving Room For Flexibility 55:15 - Relinquishing Control --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/learningtechtalks/support

Ben Brooks, Founder & CEO of PILOT Inc. joined our Jason Averbook JESS VON BANK to share the pros & cons of #remoteworking and how he continues to lead a business, connect with his team, and find #worklifebalance. Ben Brooks has been working (literally) all over the world, and today he joins us from beautiful Bozeman, Montana. He had two burning questions for Jason & Jess: is #HR really making decisions based on quantitative data, or do we rely on narrative and #storytelling? We also talked a big game around developing people, but it feels like we spend too much time on the smallest bucket of people who need it. MEATY discussion in store -- against Ben's stunning backdrop, we have no doubt.

In this episode of ERG PowerTalk, Ben Brooks, CEO of a company that democratizes coaching, shows you why you need coaching and how you can secure it for yourself and your members.

What are some personal items that you maintain on a regular basis? For a lot of people, it's their car. I tend to dance a fine line between proactive and reactive maintenance on our family vehicles. I don't particularly enjoy active maintenance as some people do, but I know that if I take care of things by spending the time and money, in the long run, my investment is significantly greater than starting over multiple times. For most of my audience, I don't really have to sell employee development. We all know the enormous benefits that it provides, yet I still find colleagues struggling with retaining talent and maintaining engagement with their teams. Is employee development something that is often said but not espoused? In this Learning Tech Talks, I have to privilege to host Ben Brooks from PILOT Inc. to dig deeper into the world of employee development and unwind some of the buzzwords by taking a closer look at some of the more pragmatic strategies that provide impact for organizations and stakeholders alike in a simple and effective way. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/learningtechtalks/support

Ben Brooks Dutton is the Sunday Times Best selling author of Its Not Raining Daddy It's Happy, award winning blogger of Life As A Widower and chair of the Life Matters Task force for bereaved families in the UK. Ben’s story is one which ignited the hearts of this nation back November 2012, when his exquisite wife Desreen, mother to their 2 year old son, was killed by a speeding car whilst they were walking home together from a perfect, blissfully happy Saturday afternoon with best friends. It was an event of such inexplicable tragedy, that it could feel hard to come to terms with a world in which something so randomly obliterative could happen. Ben’s story is one which pushes the vessel of our human capacity to hold and endure the shock, agony, acceptance and recovery from loss to its limits- consequently, what his story reveals, is one of the most courageous stories of grief I have been privileged to hear. His story is not only one of his own courage to “live fiercely” alongside his grief, but his story, also leads us to that of his gorgeous, brilliant son Jackson, who lost the person he loved most before had the language to express it. Within a couple of months of Desreens passing, Ben got to work, putting his story to the service of others through his hugely popular blog which was followed and read by millions of people all over the world. As we are in conversation, it is almost 8 years to the day that Desreen was killed. In Ben's words, in these more recent times, he has had to ‘start turning away from death, and back towards life’. So, if the world is feeling like a dark or difficult place, join us, and let your heart be ignited by the fire of the human spirit.
