Moment #34 // They say that the best disinfectant is sunlight, and I'm a huge believer in that principle. If my direct reports in CS Energy heard it once they heard it a thousand times: transparency is everything. But just how much transparency should you give to your people? Issues of trust, accountability, confidentiality, and context all play a part in how much transparency it's reasonable to offer. Like many areas of leadership, it can be a complex balance!I wrote an article on this subject for Harvard Business Review earlier this year, which is worth a read. It's titled How Transparent Should You Be With Your Team?You can also take a deeper dive into these insights by listening to Ep.207: Leadership Transparency.————————FREE QUIZ: I've developed a 3-question quiz that'll give you a free personalized podcast playlist tailored to where you are right now in your leadership career!Click here to take the 30-second quiz now to get your on-the-go playlist————————You can connect with me at:Website: https://www.yourceomentor.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/yourceomentorInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/yourceomentorLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/martin-moore-075b001/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@YourCEOMentor————————Our mission here at Your CEO Mentor is to improve the quality of leaders, globally.

How can solar engineering, procurement & construction companies increase gender diversity & inclusiveness in a short amount of time? In this Green Light episode, Catherine spoke with Janani Ramkumar, VP of Operations at CS Energy, about how CS Energy was able to increase women employees by 70% & achieve 40% women in its C suite in about a year's time. It all started when Jan, Dawn Robinson & Diana Palazzi Mery founded CS Energy Women in Renewable Energy (WiRE) during the pandemic. From providing mentorship to facilitating robust recruiting events & partnerships with organizations like Women of Renewable Industries and Sustainable Energy (WRISE) & National Girls Collaborative, CS Energy WiRE has been able to create many more opportunities for women, both at CS Energy as well as within the broader clean energy industry.Catherine also spoke with Jan about her upbringing in India, how she decided to work in a STEM field within clean energy, & her significant efforts to provide informal mentorship & coaching in order to give back. They also spoke about her recent promotion at CS Energy & her new leadership role with the WRISE New York Chapter. If you're looking for your next role in cleantech, take a look at our clients' latest job openings: bit.ly/dg_jobs.

In today's leadership spark, I had the pleasure of speaking with Martin Moore, former CEO of CS Energy, about a common issue in the workplace: office politics and backstabbing.  Martin's advice was simple yet powerful: maintain a zero-tolerance policy for office politics and take a tough-love approach to dealing with employees who engage in it. He also emphasized the importance of staying informed by talking to people at all levels of the organization and referring employees back to their immediate manager when they have complaints about their boss. Martin shared a personal story about his personal experience dealing with office politics when someone tried to sabotage him in the workplace. I believe this is a valuable lesson for all leaders to keep in mind, as office politics can be a major distraction from achieving our goals and can negatively impact team morale. ________________ Get ad-free listening, early access to new episodes and bonus episodes with the subscription version of the show The Future of Work Plus.

In today's leadership spark, I spoke with Martin Moore, former CEO of CS Energy and author of No Bullsh*t Leadership. We discussed the frustration behind the lack of practical guidance for desirable leadership attributes, and the detrimental effects of leaders who attend training programs but do nothing different. We also touched on the difficulty of transitioning from individual contributor to leader, and the need for more mentoring and role models.  Martin emphasized the importance of pushing through the discomfort of developing good leadership habits, and the impact it can have on yourself, your team, and the company. Ultimately, we agreed that leadership is about taking action and making the choice to step into difficult situations with a willingness to learn and improve. ___________________ Get ad-free listening, early access to new episodes and bonus episodes with the subscription version of the show The Future of Work Plus.

Martin Moore is the author of the upcoming book, No Bullsh!t Leadership, and the host of the podcast with the same name which has been downloaded more than 1.4 million times and has listeners in over 70 countries. He is also the former CEO of CS Energy and he currently runs Your CEO Mentor with his daughter, Emma. Martin wrote his book because there are so many books out on the market that teach desirable attributes that leaders should have, but he didn't find anything out there that shows leaders how to actually implement these ideas. He wanted to create a practical guide that would help leaders figure out how to be more transparent, how to be expert communicators, how to deal with conflict, etc… As Martin has witnessed personally there are a lot of leaders out there who attend training programs and they come back motivated and inspired by all of the things they have learned, but when they get back to work nothing has actually changed. So they think they are doing better because of the new knowledge they have, but actually they don't know how to carry it out so it doesn't help anyone. Business acumen vs leadership skills One thing Martin discusses in his book is the difference between business acumen and leadership skills. A lot of leaders aren't good in both of these areas, they are good at one or the other. Business acumen is about knowing what to do in the context of business--so this includes understanding strategy, being a good negotiator, knowing about finance, economics, marketing, operations, etc… A lot of times people who have business acumen get promoted to leadership roles, and they are very smart people, but they don't have the leadership skills needed to be effective. People who only have business acumen can be absolutely terrible leaders. Leadership skills include being able to deal with conflict, being able to motivate and inspire people, being an excellent communicator, being able to clearly share the vision of the company, etc… Ideally people in leadership roles have both business acumen and leadership skills, however if forced to choose between the two Martin says it's better to have the leadership skills and surround yourself with people who have the business acumen then it would be for a leader to have business acumen alone. Martin says, “A leader's job is to actually lift the people, to understand them, to get the most out of them, to achieve the results they have to achieve for the organization. And for me, the number one mandate for a leader is to deliver value, period. That's it. Now, before your listeners rail against the fact that I am a heartless capitalist bastard, value comes in many different forms, right? Value can come as much from providing a safer environment for our people, as it can from generating financial value. Someone who's running a surgical practice value might come from better postoperative outcomes for patients. So value comes in many different forms. It's just a matter of understanding what form that is for you.” The leadership problem When it comes to promoting people, the transition between individual contributor and being a leader is something we are not paying enough attention to, Martin says. Just because someone is great in a certain role does not mean they will automatically be a great leader. We need more training and mentoring for people going into their first leadership role. And because a lot of people in leadership positions today have not had the proper training, a lot of times the people just now moving into these roles don't have any real role models to look up to. “You look up the line, and you look sideways, and you can't see too many people where you go, Oh, I get it, I see what leadership is, I want to be more like that person. And so you develop all the bad habits right at the start, that you shouldn't. And of course, every time you get promoted above that, it becomes more difficult. Just the simple fact that you have to let go of the details more and more and more, the higher up you go in an organization. Many people never master that. That's why the workloads are 100-120 hours a week.” So why do we still have a leadership problem when there are so many books, podcasts, courses, etc...on the topic of great leadership? Martin says a lot of it comes down to the fact that a lot of people don't want to put in the work of leadership. A lot of the things that you need to be a great leader go against the grain and against the programming that's in our DNA. For example, a lot of people have a hard time stepping into conflict situations and finding a solution. Most of us tend to avoid conflict if we can. But as a leader you are going to have to deal with conflict, it's a huge part of the role. So you have to learn to keep practicing that skill until it becomes more comfortable. “It's a lot easier to develop bad habits than it is to develop good habits. And leadership, to a large extent, is about pushing yourself to do the things that help you to develop those good habits.” The seven principles needed to be an exceptional leader In his book, Martin lays out the seven principles that all leaders need to focus on to improve and be an exceptional leader. They are: Deliver value--You have to understand what value means to you and to your organization. Once you've done that you have to stop everything else. You should be picking out the top 2-4 things that drive value for your organization and absolutely nail those things. It's all about real focus and simplicity. Handle conflict--Conflict is a part of almost everything you do as a leader, so you have to get comfortable with it. You have to be able to stay rational and composed when you are in a conflict situation. And it's always about respect before popularity. If you're trying to be popular, it's not going to end well because there will always be people who don't like you. Build resilience--Being able to function as a strong leader under severe circumstances is critical. How do you handle pressure? You have to be able to function calmly, rationally when in a crisis. You can't blame other people and you can't avoid the problems. Work at level--This is a common problem throughout organizations. You are paid to do a certain job and that is what you have to focus on. Don't do other people's work for them. If someone isn't doing their job as the leader you can't just jump in and do it for them. First of all it's robbing that person of the opportunity to improve, but you are also wasting time that you should be spending on your own work. That's why a lot of leaders end up working 80+ hour weeks. It's because they are working on the wrong things. Master ambiguity--As a CEO pretty much everything you deal with is in shades of gray, it's not black and white. But you have to be able to translate from extreme uncertainty at the top to extreme clarity at the bottom. Your people have to understand what is required of them, how they add value to the business, how they fit into the mission of the company, etc... Make great decisions--A great decision will be timely, you can't act slowly. A decision that is 80% right today is infinitely better than a decision that is 90% right next month. Most of the time we hesitate on decisions because we are afraid to get it wrong. You have to know who to consult,how long to consult, you need a strong line of accountability to make sure all available inputs are there, etc.. Drive accountability--Having someone who is singularly accountable for delivering something is critical. Single point accountability has a completely different energy to it then when things are shifting around multiple people and teams. But to really have accountability you have to empower people correctly. Accountability without empowerment is just cruel. Now more than ever we need to take a step back to define what it means to be a leader and what great leadership looks like. But this isn't easy to do. In fact, many business leaders struggle with this. You cannot become and build what you don't define.

Episode #132 // There are many variables that have an impact on what a CEO role entails at a given point in time - industry, company size, maturity of the business, external market forces, customer segmentation, ownership structure etc.On top of this, every day can be vastly different, which is why some of the most important attributes for a CEO to possess are adaptability, change tolerance, and mental agility. Add to these the ability to communicate and align the organisation around a compelling value proposition, and you're starting to get close! This episode explores both the theory and the practice of the role of the CEO. I share my views on the non-negotiable outcomes that are relevant to every CEO role, and I also give you a “Day In the Life Of” as I reflect on my time as CEO of CS Energy.

During this episode, Shaun McCambridge, Stellar's Managing Director, sits down with Martin Moore, Founder of Your CEO Mentor and former Chief Executive Office of CS Energy. Martin with his daughter Emma have created Your CEO mentor, - a place where leaders learn the things that they don't teach at business school. He shares all of his hard-earned leadership experience and learning to good use; mentoring leaders around the globe with practical, no bullshit leadership strategies that will catapult their careers and help them create high performing, results-driven, winning teams.  Martin's Highlights4:00 Martin's early years5:44 His own Resilience Journey 7:10 Techniques for Resilience9:10 A time of personal resilience building for Martin12:00 Techniques that Martin has used13:55 Leaders during COVID18:05 Creating brain space for leaders20:45 Remote leadership 24:26 Creating/continuing a healthy culture during COVID29:15 Enabling others to meet expectations with all the external factors49:35 What is next for Martin? Martin's early yearsParents greatly valued education and enrolled him at St Joseph's College Hunters Hill. After school he went to university to study law, where he found himself in an unstructured environment compared to the highly structured one in his early education. As a result, he took time to regain his balance and go back to the values that he had learnt early on.   His own Resilience Journey Never one to dwell on failure or falling short, he always doubled down even from a very young age. It was always about giving his very personal best and he always seeked to do better than the day before. He realised that one could make big mistakes that weren't fatal; having no fear from failing is a very important element to being resilient.Techniques for ResilienceThere are a few techniques on how to build personal resilience.  Focusing on Elements one can controlNot getting too caught up in elements that you can't control and instead spending time on things that you can makes a huge difference; Martin refers to the book “The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People” by Stephen Covey  PerspectiveHaving the perspective on what is going on, no matter how bad the circumstance gets with the pandemic, we will look back 10 years from now and there will be some good learnings and changes.  A time of personal resilience building for MartinMartin experienced personal resilience building about 20 years ago. During this time he experienced a period of sustained pressure; he first moved to QLD, had taken on C-level role, was studying for an Executive MBA; during a hostile takeover and he had to handle all of elements at once.  What he initially thought of doing was to take off one of those elements; however, he wanted to further his career into a more demanding C level role and if couldn't sustain this, he wouldn't be able to in the future. Having a reminder that this sustained period of pressure is what future roles would have helped him continue on. At end of it, he had a tremendous amount of confidence knowing that he could step into any situation and handle it.  Techniques that Martin usedHe was in survival mode at times and used 15 minutes to reset.   He also spent time working on hard constraints and then allowed some elements to be more flexible. Leaders during COVIDAt the moment leaderships skills are being put to the test. The key is to look into outputs, not inputs; concentrating on the value and value alone. Leaders need to define and articulate what adds value; companies often lose sight of this. It is the leader's role to eliminate the non-value items and focus on items that will make a difference. Example: One of the organisations that he worked with had a team that created processes and procedures; the problem was that there was virtually no impact on the outcome; there was a real disconnect. In every team needs to be outcome driven such as the processes/procedures need to reduce time, save money etc.  Creating brain space for leadersMartin refers to “The Leadership Pipeline: How to build the leadership powered company” by Ram Charan, Steve Dotter and Jim NoelLeaders need to have brain space to do their jobs; the below Leadership pipeline book breaks down different levels of businesses and giving each level clarification of what they should be concentrating on. Many leaders/managers are overcompensating and drilling down too deep for their level which takes away from the role that they should be doing.  Remote leadership Prior and during COVID leaders are still managing people and to do this successfully you need to provide the following framework: 1)     Clear Expectations2)     How they are tracking based on those expectations3)     What their future holdsUsually, you can rely on the micro conversations to further clarify or obtain feedback but COVID has challenged the relationships that rely on this; if you have completed the three above elements it enables flowing leadership conversations. Creating/continuing a healthy culture during COVIDCOVID has added the complexity of different circumstances for each individual e.g. working from home environmentsIt is about making people aware of the following elements: -        The company's why and linking the purpose -        What creates value for the company as a whole-        What is the strategy in the long term-        What are tactics the we will use  -        What the company needs from you todayEvery layer of a business then communicates the above but it can potentially change the message from the top, down; so it is really important that one sets the expectation on oneself and check-ins to see how others interpret that day to day. Enabling others to meet expectations with all the external factorsIt comes to down to understanding humans.If we have open conversations with people and finding a bridge between their personal circumstances and what the organisation needs It is ultimately a give and take relationship. Making the decision to pursue your purposeAbout 14 years ago he realised that what he was put on this planet to do was not what he was doing; he knew that he wanted to have a big impact on people.  He realised that every time that he has stepped out and moved towards a goal that he put everything towards, it worked out. If he goes hard and puts everything that he knew about being successful that it would work; he believes that everyone is like this and that it is fear that holds people back. During his last years at CS Energy, he wanted to have a go and take a risk on what he wanted to do. He was working with Rachael Vickery, a high-performance coach, she helped him map out what drove him. He didn't want to leave anything in the tank and to boldly go after what he wanted.  Most constraints are artificial and stops them from doing what they could do. These commitments are constraints and by suspending them it enables people to unravel the possibilities. During this process, personally he took the time to test the market and see if he could make an impact in the highly competitive leadership development. Going out there confidently and testing the market for 6-12months; the worst that could happen is that he looks to find his next job in 12 months' time.  Martin comments that he was always happy doing his C level roles, giving that period a 8-8.5 out of 10 of happiness; however 20% of his was a daily grind; the level of satisfaction now from “Your CEO mentor” work is 11 out of 10 as it is the 80% of what he loved in his C-level role that he is doing 100% of the time.  Martin's mistakesAs the old saying goes “you never fail as you are always learning” and Martin finds that his is true. He believes that in every failure that there is something you can take out of it to move forward.  1.     Not respecting how much his parents had invested in his education and dropping out of university but only from that perspective as this decision but him on his own path.2.     During is his first C-level role one of his team made a multimillion-dollar mistake; although the stakeholders wanted the team member to lose his job, Martin viewed the failure as a mistake that the person wouldn't make again and would be at a competitors advantage if he were to go an work for them. “Good judgement comes from experience; experience comes from bad judgement” Will Rogers 3.     One of the most common mistakes as a leader that he has also made is giving too much rope to a person when they didn't have the maturity or capability to do it.  When you give it to the right people it works like a charm but at the wrong time it makes you look like an idiot and them look like they don't know what they were doing. You need to have the right balance between support and freedom; e.g. accountability, empowerment and how close you need to stick to them. “Trust but verify” Ronald Raegan The key is to understand where they are and asking people earlier if things aren't 100%; understanding the inputs early is crucial if you can't see the outputs.  What is next for Martin? Leadership beyond the theory course Leadership Beyond the Theory course which starts in March 2021, and the No Bullsh!t Leadership book which will be published in the US on 31st August 2021. Ultimately Martin loves barriers as it shows him that he is on the right path; it is just the matter of getting over the barriers where many others would turn-around. Your CEO Mentor No Bullsh!t Leadership podcast

Episode #25 // This week’s episode is a big one! Once again I've developed a two part episode to deal with what I think is one of our larger topics, The Roadmap to Exceptional Leadership. Shoehorning this topic into a couple of brief podcast episodes is going to be tricky, but I am up for the challenge!This week in part one, we'll start by looking at common leadership attributes and competencies, the best place to start when we’re defining what an ‘exceptional leader’ actually is, without all the fluff! In this episode I’ll cover:The ideal leadership attributes that we so often hear are ‘important’, but are also strangely intangibleThe difference that personal perspective makes in creating meaning around leadership attributesAn example of how when I was CEO of CS Energy, I used key descriptors to explain certain attributes to my organisation, providing greater understanding of what behaviour I expectedWhy I think that leadership competencies are far more tangible (and relevant) than leadership attributesSome of the competencies of senior leadership that I learned from my time at Harvard Business School - you can download these competencies for free at www.yourceomentor.com/episode25 to self-evaluate, and evaluate those in your teamI’ll touch on The 7 Pillars of Leadership Performance which will give you an insight into next week’s episode where I’ll give away my ‘secret sauce' to becoming an exceptional leader!My hope is that this episode gets you thinking about what leadership attributes and competencies you currently have, and which ones you want to develop. Becoming an exceptional leader takes time, patience, discipline and an unwavering commitment to improving. It’s not easy, but the payback is incalculable.If this episode has given you a new perspective on leadership, and you feel as though you want to dive deeper into what it actually takes to become an exceptional leader, I strongly encourage you to check out our 7-week online leadership program, Leadership Beyond the Theory. Enrolment is only open for another 8 days before we close the door to this cohort.I’d love to know if this has helped you reframe your perspective on what great leadership is, so please send me an email (hello@yourceomentor.com) with your feedback!

Episode #19 // It’s no secret that any number of things can sub-optimise execution inside an organisation. One of the most insidious, in my experience, is a weak accountability culture. So whereas lack of strategy, planning, and resourcing are relatively obvious, a weak accountability model is not always apparent to senior management and this will work against virtually anything you're trying to achieve.So in today’s episode, Execution for Results: Driving accountability in your team, we're going to kick off by talking about what a weak accountability culture looks like, because if you can’t recognise it, you can’t fix it. I’ll then go on to cover:Management vs leadership - what I really think about these two concepts and how they fit togetherThe key issues you’ll come across if you have a weak accountability culture - hopefully there are some lightbulb moments for you hereWhat drives this weak accountability culture? The 5 key drivers that I talk through will likely give you something to reflect upon when you look at your own organisations cultureMy experience of having to turn around CS Energy’s culture from weak accountability, to full accountability - one of the toughest things I had to overcome as CEOThe principle of one head to pat, one ass to kickThe six ways to get superior execution through setting up the right accountabilities inside your organisation - these are GOLD so make sure you download the free PDF ‘Six Steps to Creating a Strong Accountability Culture' from www.yourceomentor.com/episode19 where I summarise all of these points for you - even if you don’t listen to the whole episode, I strongly encourage you to download this and use it as a framework in your businessThis episode is pretty meaty, but if you commit to reflecting on and evaluating you team, your organisation, or even your own personal behaviour in light of these points, you will be so much closer to driving exceptional results through team accountability.I feel so strongly about this being a success driver for leaders, that I dedicate an entire module of Leadership Beyond the Theory to it. In ‘Module 6: Drive Accountability’, I spend 5 lessons talking through all the strategies and techniques I use to create a really strong accountability culture, jam packed with real world examples from my own experiences. I highlight the struggles just as much as the successes, so that you can really get a 360 degree view of what it takes to drive accountability successfully in your organisation as an exceptional leader.If you enjoyed this episode, please rate, review and subscribe to the podcast - it means a lot to us and it gives us an idea of what you are getting the most value from, so that we can make more of it!I’d love to hear your stories of creating an accountability culture within your organisation, or any of the pitfalls you’ve come across while trying to do so!

Episode #11 // Now, no one can accuse me of not taking on the big issues in this podcast, and this one is particularly vexed because, although there's almost universal acceptance of the value that a diverse team brings to an organisation, very few organisations actually have a diverse workforce.In this episode, we question why it’s so hard to create this. I’ll go straight to the punchline - there is no silver bullet: it takes time, effort and the right approach through every level of the business.I try and cover this topic as simply as I can, and that starts with examining our own belief systems. From there I cover:Why it is so hard to build diversity at the top levelA quick note on reverse discrimination, privilege and unconscious bias (this one is going to take some self-reflection)The different types of diversity we need in our organisations - gender is an obvious one, but there are also other areas of discrimination such as industry and function backgroundThe need to balance the ‘diversity premium’ with individual capability when building a high performing teamBeing aware of hiring in our own likeness, and how dangerous this isHow organisations need to make the commitment not to do ‘dumb sh!t’ when it comes to penalising great, talented women who want to step out of the workforce for a period of time to start a familyA great recently released study from McKinsey and Co about the differences between the way men and women are treated in the workplace - this is based on four years of data from over 460 companies employing almost 20 million people, so it’s pretty solid dataThe pay parity question and a quite detailed example of how my team created a “pay parity guarantee” whilst I was CEO at CS EnergyWhy it can be difficult to bring balance to a senior leadership team based on the available candidatesMy key learning around how to ensure that strong, diverse candidates are developed (hint: you need to start early and build it from the ground up)Nine ways to foster diversity in your team or organisation - I’ve put those points in an easy to follow PDF for you which you can download at www.yourceomentor.com/episode11This episode is one of the grittier ones. I’m not proclaiming to be a diversity guru, and I definitely regret not being able to move faster on this critical issue when I was at CS Energy, however the learnings I had whilst I was trying to make changes were invaluable. I hope they enable you to reflect upon this topic with a different perspective!As always, I’d love to know what you thought of this episode, and if you have any extra tips or strategies on increasing workplace diversity, so please shoot me an email at hello@yourceomentor.com.If you haven’t rated or reviewed the podcast yet, please do it now! It helps us reach even more leaders who are having challenges with their careers.
