In this episode of the Powerful Stories Podcast, host Tory Archbold sits with Anna Dutton, co-founder of CEO Magazine, a woman who firmly believes that stepping out of your comfort zone places you into your power zone. They met through the Powerful Steps Business Attraction Program and have been in each other's tribe ever since empowering women in leadership roles around the world by sharing insights and powerful connections.   Anna is responsible for telling the inside stories for the world's leading CEOs and entrepreneurs like Elle McPherson and Gina Rinehart. What are the 3 key leaderships traits Anna has seen when interviewing female entrepreneurs? ‘Trust is at the top', says Anna ‘trusting that your team will do what they set out to do and also, trusting in yourself to lead them.' Becoming humble is the second trait. Elle McPherson once wrote, “Everyone has their strengths and weakness. Successful partnerships rely on recognising, respecting and enabling each other's strengths for the good of the business.” And the final trait – compassion. ‘Compassion as it is crucial to understanding, and relating to, the people you work with' says Anna.    Heart vs ego is a hot topic in the leadership game. ‘Today, more than ever, there needs to be a balance' says Anna, ‘the heart of your business are your people so, you need to know the heart of them.' A really good global leader will have a vision of where the business is headed, even during the difficult times we are facing. ‘It's important to know how to empower your people. There is no micro-managing involved with being a global leader superhero.'   The world is becoming increasingly virtual. There are many challenges that come with running a global team. It's vitally really important that you take time to look after yourself and your team and to keep wellness at the forefront of your mind. Lockdowns can be isolating. ‘Even just sending a coffee to a colleague and asking them for a chat is a great way to increase connectivity.'    A few years ago, everything was moving forward with CEO magazine but it was a whirlwind. ‘I needed to find a way to deal with that next phase of life,' says Anna. ‘One of my strategies is called “the morning pages.” I would write down everything on my mind which would clear the way for me to put back in the good stuff.' Anna then started to meditate – ‘It was the most illuminating moment of my life, other than the birth of my child' says Anna and shares how meditation gives her power to keep moving forward.    Empowered women, empower other women. Anna has a passion for helping women find their voice and shares the joy she receives when she sees women being recognised. Christine Holgate was the first woman to win the CEO Magazine's Executive of the Year Awards in 2015. Through that award, she went on to become the CEO of Australia Post. ‘I'm just so proud that we were able to be a part of that journey' says Anna.    So, sit back and enjoy this powerful story with the extraordinary Anna Dutton.

This episode, Shadé Zahrai interviews Louise Adams, Chief Operating Officer – Australia and New Zealand of Aurecon. She is also a Mentor of the Minerva Network, National Advisory Board Member of Infrastructure Partnerships Australia, Member of Chief Executive Women and Board Director of Aurecon Australasia. She was named 2020 CEO of the Year by The CEO Magazine, a 2018 Scholar by the Chief Executive Women and received a High Commendation as one of the Champions of Change Female Leadership Award by Consult Australia.   Valuable Discussion Points (01:21) What is the story of Louise's leadership journey? Louise felt that her leadership journey started out quite accidentally. Her passion was to travel and she wanted to link her career with her ability to travel, having some opportunities to travel with the work. One of the directors of Aurecon wanted to open an office in Western Australia and offered Louise the job of leading the office there. As the office grew, she grew with it. She continued to jump at opportunities that took her overseas. She headed overseas to the UK, the UAE until she was offered another role back in Australia.   (05:16) What is the “what next” moment for Louise? When Louise was starting her career, whenever an opportunity was given to her, she would jump in without really knowing where it was heading. Now, she is at a point in her career where she can visualise where she wants to be next, what she aspires to become and where she wants to be in 10 or 15 years. This is her "what next" moment. She has built herself a bank of experience, connections, networks and professional reputation that rather than just taking in the opportunities as they come to her, she can now start to design opportunities and create opportunities for herself in areas that she wanted them to be to put her on the right path for her planned future endeavours.   (16:02) What are her thoughts on young people who are really driven, ambitious and want to keep moving and growing but without really thinking about, where they are now and how they can demonstrate that they can deliver here and now?   A CV is a reflection of the experiences that you have in your career and a CV is like a report card that can open opportunities for you. You've got to really appreciate that the depth of the CV comes from actually making the most of opportunities. Louise advises young people that she mentors to sort of hasten slowly and prove themselves in their roles.   (24:46) With all of Louise's leadership experience, nothing could have prepared her for 2020, what was 2020 like for her and what wisdom did she gain from that year?   For her, 2020 is going to go down as the most challenging year in most people's professional careers, if not personal lives. What really resonated with her was that every time she faced thousands of people who are looking to her for leadership during times of crisis, she emphasised the importance of authenticity and the willingness to be quite open about that she won't always have the answers.   Key Learnings Leaders have perhaps tended to hold expectations of themselves or perhaps other people held expectations of leaders that leaders naturally know the answers to everything. We live in such a fast changing, evolving world that can be disrupted and is constantly disrupted, be it by technology or by the circumstances the world finds itself in 2020. Leaders need to be able to show vulnerability, to show that it really is impossible for one person to have the answers to everything. Decades ago, a typical army approach to leadership may have worked, where leaders can say I know what you need to do because I've been there and I've done that before. Nowadays, with the size and complexity of organisations and often the multidisciplinary nature of organisations, it's very rare for you to have a leader that actually can look at everybody in the organisation and say, I've done what you've done. Add to that the fact that you're introducing technology at such a rate, you're often as a leader, going to be asking people to do things that you really haven't had to do yourself. Louise added being specific about where one wanted to go in their leadership journey to the Leadership Toolbox. Where do you want to be in 10 years? What sort of CV would you need to have to get that job that you want in 10 years? And then comparing it with your CV on the day with the CV that you needed in 10 years and looking for the gaps. Ask yourself, what are the career opportunities that I need to go and create for myself to make the ideal CV that I'm going to put on the table in 10 years to get that ultimate outcome that I want.   Quotable Quotes “You don't suddenly wake up at a point in your career and say, I'm a leader, and therefore I have all of the suite of tools and experiences and skills to be a leader that leadership in and of itself is this ongoing lifelong learning journey.” – Louise Adams   “You need to earn the right to be able to have people follow you.”– Louise Adams   “We were starting to see this ongoing trend where people and communities were standing up to corporations and saying, we expect you to stand for more than just profit. And I think, therefore, there's a lesson to be learnt for leaders that you really have to find. What is your passion?”– Louise Adams   Important Resources and Links If you would like to learn more about how CommBank is ensuring women are advancing their growth in business, visit https://www.commbank.com.au/women-in-focus.html.

Episode #51 // Last week marked International Youth Day, so to celebrate we’ve put together this long-awaited episode on how to lead Millennials, a pretty common question from listeners.Marty was recently quoted in an article for The CEO Magazine (Generations X and Y: leadership ready?) written by Adam Courtenay), which explored the future of leadership when Millennials take the baton from the current generation of leaders.Millennials get a bad rap for lots of things, but they have some distinct advantages over Baby Boomers and Gen Xs.Surprisingly, leading Millennials is no different to leading other types of people - the problem is that, if you are a poor leader, you will just get away with a lot less!

In this episode of #AskJackD I'm joined by Michelle Hespe, Editor-In-Chief of The CEO Magazine to talk about what it takes to be a strong leader. We take these questions: Hi Jack, what are the most important skills to develop to be a successful CEO? What is the best way to get noticed by a journalist? #AskJackD What are the don'ts when reaching out the media? You feature many prominent leaders in your magazine, in your opinion who is the greatest leader of our time and why? What ‘s your biggest weakness? Everyone says to work smart not work hard (although most of the time you need to work smart and hard). How do you take a step back and evaluate if what you are doing is truly smart? In Unwritten you speak of The Entourage having an informal culture that lends itself to innovation and how it enables your high-performance team. How does your team decide what processes need to be formalised or be allowed to occur organically?
