Podcasts about influence impact

  Many leaders struggle with making tough decisions and dealing with their aftermath. In this episode Sarah Miller, CEO at leading global ethics consultancy Principia, shares how ethics can provide a set of resources and tools to use within decision-making, guiding how we lead as individuals from our own place of values, but probably more critically, how we engage with others who bring their own sets of values.    In our conversation we discuss…  How to weigh different perspectives and ‘effectively deliberate'  The ‘transparency and fairness tests' you can apply to decisions  Creating safe spaces for difficult discussions after hard decisions  The concept of the ‘moral remainder' and how it will help you navigate hard decisions and their aftermath  What we can learn from philosophy about leadership  How having a ‘challenger role' could make your leadership team's decisions better    My name's Carla Miller, leadership coach, author and trainer. And this is the Influence & Impact podcast for women leaders, helping you confidently navigate the ups and downs of leadership and feel less alone on your journey as a leader.  In fortnightly episodes I share practical tools and insights from myself and my brilliant guests that will help you succeed in your career.    Other news:  I'm taking a 3 month pause from the podcast and we will be back in June.  Do explore the back catalogue of 180 episodes if you are looking for some practical leadership inspiration and make sure you are signed up to my newsletter to be notified when the podcast starts again.    Sponsor my 50th birthday Great North Run to find a cure for diabetes    Influence & Impact:  Join the May cohort of Influence & Impact to learn how to tackle self-doubt, increase your impact and become brilliant at influencing.  It's a small cohort working closely with me and includes 6 workshops and 2 peer coaching sessions.    About Sarah Miller:  Sarah Miller is the Chief Executive at Principia, the leading global ethics consultancy.  She is a senior client partner and advisor with leading global companies on values-based leadership, culture and decision-making, primarily working across technology, financial services, energy, construction, professional services and non-profit sectors.   Sarah has twenty years' experience in global leadership roles in complex international settings, including significant strategy, governance, multicultural team management and operational oversight responsibilities.  An organizational development expert, much of her career has involved designing and facilitating change processes, focusing on the intersection of culture and conduct with systems and structures.  She is committed to bringing human centred design and systems thinking into her work with leaders, increasing awareness and equipping with the practical tools to build a more responsible, inclusive business environment.   Sarah's areas of expertise include good governance, ethical decision making, diversity and inclusion and speak-up.  She brings deep knowledge and experience with sustainability, DEI, business and human rights and key drivers of poverty and inequality, and has led socially and environmentally responsible initiatives in more than 30 countries.    Sarah holds an M.S. in International Affairs and has spent most of her career working extensively across the Americas, Asia, Africa, Europe, and the Middle East.

  This episode was prompted by a request from one of the members of my Women Leading community who asked how she could build more personal resilience around the impact of decisions she was making at work and be a little more “Teflon coated”.    Perhaps you relate – you need to make tough decisions as a leader but you take things to heart, you care about people and their wellbeing and sometimes the decisions you make can have significant impact on others.      Or perhaps you are the person who is implementing the decisions that others have made and cascading unwelcome news or making unpopular changes.  You may be involved in a restructure for example or taking a team member through performance management.    Now, I didn't want to call this ‘how to care less as a leader' because I don't think that those of us who care a lot would embrace the idea of caring less.  Caring, having empathy, being conscious of the impact of our decisions on people - these are all wonderful traits for a leader to have and may well be a huge strength of yours as a leader.    However, if caring has no boundaries around it then you could be heading towards sleepless nights, self-doubt and possibly even burnout.  In this episode I'm going to explore 3 insights and 3 tools and techniques to help you if you are someone who cares too much as a leader.    My name's Carla Miller, leadership coach, author and trainer. And this is the Influence & Impact podcast for women leaders, helping you confidently navigate the ups and downs of leadership and feel less alone on your journey as a leader.  In fortnightly episodes I share practical tools and insights from myself and my brilliant guests that will help you succeed in your career.    FREE RESOURCE - How To Say No Challenge:  If you struggle to say ‘no' then this free 5 day challenge is for you.  You'll receive a short email each day containing a short video taking you through the 5 steps of my How To Say No framework.

  I've got another episode where I am a guest for you, this time I'm talking about how to get your voice heard at work with Aoife O'Brien on her Happier at Work podcast.    One of the key issues we discussed was the challenge of being interrupted in meetings, particularly for women. I provide strategies for managing interruptions and finding opportunities to speak up, including utilising allies and the powerful strategy of amplification.    In this episode you'll hear more about…  The impact of gender bias on confidence.  Strategies for managing interruptions and finding opportunities to speak up.  The importance of integrating body language tools and my "Cloak of Authority" to feel more in control in challenging situations.  The significance of delivering feedback upwards in a diplomatic and solution-focused manner.  The importance of body language and ending contributions with confidence.    My name's Carla Miller, leadership coach, author and trainer.

  We all know we should be coaching our teams but it's hard to know how to do that without going on a coaching for managers course.  Until now!    In this week's episode I interview Jude Sclater about her book ‘Think Like a Coach' which is a wonderfully practical step by step guide that any manager can use to become a coach-like manager.  Jude simplifies coaching for us, defining it as giving someone your attention while they think out loud and emphasizes the importance of listening and asking questions    We discuss…  - Jude's 3 principles to help you become more coach-like with your team  - When to coach your team and when not to!  - Jude's ‘Two Step' approach to get you coaching straight away  - The number one step you can take to create psychological safety in your team  - How to coach in 5 minutes or less  - How to support a team member experiencing strong emotions   My name's Carla Miller, leadership coach, author and trainer.

When I was sent a book called The Emotional Overdraft I instinctively knew that this was a topic that was going to resonate with me personally and you as listeners to this podcast.     An emotional overdraft is when you as a leader habitually overcome your employer's challenges at the cost of our own physical and mental health. Sound familiar?   I am seeing this happening a LOT at the moment with the women within my Women Leading community so I was excited to dive into the topic with the book's author Andy Brown.   We discussed: The cost of going too deep into your emotional overdraft How to start paying it back What behaviours or drivers create our emotional overdraft The role of management skills and influencing in changing a culture which relies on people being emotionally overdrawn How to approach urgency and filling short term gaps more strategically How the emotional overdraft shows up outside of work   My name's Carla Miller, leadership coach, author and trainer.

As leaders we'd all like to have happy teams but how do we create the right environment to achieve that?  I interview Richard Clarke, creator of the popular Happy Teams substack newsletter, about his experience building a company centred on team happiness and the work he does helping companies create happier teams. We discuss… What makes people happy at work The 5 factors that influence team happiness Who is responsible for your team's happiness Richard Clarke is the founder and ex-CEO of Secret Source, an IT company based in Spain. In 2014 he had a theory, if he set up a company whose main KPIs were team and client happiness then the team would collaborate better, be more aligned with their clients and perform better and all the traditional measures of success, profit, revenue, growth would naturally follow. For 10 years Richard studied the science of happiness in the workplace and applied it in his company. In 2022, with almost 50 employees Richard handed over the role of CEO and he now dedicates his life to sharing his knowledge. He writes, speaks and teaches leaders and organisations how to use the science of happiness and wellbeing to build better teams.   Richard's white paper on team happiness: richardclarke.eu/podcastgift  Happy Teams substack: happyteams.substack.com    This is the Influence & Impact podcast for women leaders, helping you confidently navigate the ups and downs of leadership and feel less alone on your journey as a leader.   My name's Carla Miller, I've been coaching leaders for the past 15 years and I'm your leadership bestie.  I'm here to remind you of the value to bring to your organisation, to help believe in yourself and to share practical tools and insights from myself and my brilliant guests that will help you succeed in your career.   I've just launched Women Leading – a community to help you lead without overwhelm.  It offers peer support, live Q&A with me, access to the Leadership Skills Lab, menopause events and a live workshop each month on topics including… How to Say No Managing an Overwhelmed Team How and When to Coach Your Team Reducing Drama in your Team Giving Feedback Without Feeling Awkward Until 1 May 2024 you can access a discounted price at https://www.carlamillertraining.com/womenleading

  Is midlife making you wonder what to do next or are you suffering from ageism at work? Listen to this captivating conversation with me and Dr Lucy Ryan, inspired by her book "Revolting Women, Why Midlife Women Are Walking Out." We delve deep into the impact of gendered ageism, the many challenges faced by midlife women, and why many are leaving the workforce.   In our conversation, we cover:  The challenges faced by midlife women, including the collision of events such as menopause, parental care, and financial pressures. We also discuss the gender bias in caregiving and the impact on women's careers, with many struggling to return to the workforce.  We discuss the need for a revolution in how midlife women are supported, emphasising the importance of transitioning from full-time to part-time work and redefining the narratives that often surround middle-aged women.  We also stress the need for organisations to integrate age into diversity agendas, track data, conduct listening exercises, and promote part-time and job share options.  About Dr Lucy Ryan:  Dr. Lucy Ryan is a leadership coach, trainer, and researcher who focuses on midlife women and their decision-making process as they move into positions of power. After observing many women making unexpected career choices just as they were on the brink of stepping up, Dr. Ryan realised there was little research on the subject and decided to pursue a PhD to investigate further. Despite leaving school with no qualifications, she self-educated herself from the age of 40 onwards, eventually becoming an expert in her field.

Welcome back to another episode of the Influence and Impact Podcast. Today we're diving into a topic that many of us struggle with: saying yes to things we don't really want to do. As female leaders, we often find ourselves taking on tasks that aren't our responsibility, and it's time to put a stop to it. I'll be sharing strategies and practical tips to help you reclaim your time and energy by breaking free from the Yes trap.   We will explore the reasons behind our tendency to say yes when we want to say no. Spoiler alert: it often stems from our desire to be liked. We'll also dive into the societal pressure for women to be constantly agreeable and how it impacts our progress in the workplace.    I'll be sharing strategies to help you break this pattern, including using holding phrases to manage expectations, creating a checklist to decide when to say yes or no, and communicating clearly when declining a request. We also discuss how to navigate non-promotable tasks and the importance of assigning them fairly to avoid overburdening certain individuals.    On a more personal note, I will be sharing my current journey with my son who recently experienced a health scare that led to a diagnosis of type 1 diabetes. I'll share the symptoms we noticed, the process of getting a diagnosis, and the importance of raising awareness about this condition.    So, stay tuned for an episode packed with insights and practical advice to empower you to stop saying yes to things you don't really want to do. It's time to take control of your time, energy, and influence.    WORK WITH ME AND MY TEAM We partner with you to: Develop your women leaders and prepare them to advance within the organisation.
