AI is moving faster than any of us can keep up. Every week brings a new tool, every month a new disruption, and leaders everywhere are left scrambling to understand what this means for their people, their culture, and their future. In this episode, I sit down with Charlotte Eaton, Chief People Officer at Arm—the company powering almost every smartphone on the planet—to explore how AI is fundamentally transforming the workplace. We discuss the skyrocketing demand for AI talent, how companies like Arm are rolling out AI tools across their workforce, and the growing pressure on leaders to stay ahead of rapid technological shifts. Charlotte shares insights on building an AI-ready culture, the risks of outsourcing human thinking to machines, and how leadership mindsets must evolve to thrive in this new era. We also explore the future of work, from the rise of AI co-pilots and system-based thinking to changing views on education, hiring, and organizational design. If you're struggling to make sense of AI's rapid takeover, this episode is for you.   ________________ Start your day with the world's top leaders by joining thousands of others at Great Leadership on Substack.

You can't always control the chaos around you — but you can control the mindset you bring to it. In this Bite Size from episode 112, CEO Reini Otter shares how his approach to leadership completely shifted after a life-changing cancer diagnosis — and why real performance isn't just about strategy, it's about perspective. Reini unpacks the concept of high-altitude thinking — the ability to zoom out, rise above the day-to-day noise, and see the bigger picture. He explains why building strong workplace culture isn't just the leader's job — it takes the whole organisation — and how humility became one of his most important leadership tools. Whether you're leading teams, driving performance, or navigating your own high-pressure moments — learning to think at altitude could change everything.

In this episode of Getting to Aha!, host Darshan Mehta sits down with Mohan Sivaloganathan, founder of Harmonious Leadership, to discuss a revolutionary approach to leadership that unites well-being with performance.

Kicking off Series 4, I'm joined by the brilliant Chris Hirst – former Global CEO, speaker, and author of the bestselling No Bullsh*t series, including his latest release, Indispensable. This is a practical, powerful conversation about real leadership – not just the talking and thinking, but the doing.We explore what it means to take your space and authority as a leader, how to build indivisibly tight teams, and why culture is not a soft word – it's your strategy.Chris shares openly about the inflexion point in his own career, how he turned around a business once called "unfixable," and the questions every leader needs to ask if they want their teams – and careers – to thrive.This one's meaty. Bring a pencil (a sharpened one) and get stuck in.Inside This EpisodeWhy leadership starts with doing – not just talking and thinkingThe sharpened pencil metaphor for action and momentumHow Chris turned around a failing company (that had been written off)The equation: Leadership Impact = Clarity × ActionWhat leaders often misunderstand about cultureHow to build indivisibly tight teamsWhy teamship – not just individual talent – drives performanceThe Schwerpunkt principle: where to focus your energy for maximum impactThe three layers of belief every high-performing team needsThe vital (and often missing) conversations in hybrid teamsWant to work with me to build extra-Ordinary cultures in your business?

The CEO Playbook is Broken. Here's How to Rewrite It.What if the strategies you're using to lead your company are actually the reason it's not growing? In this episode of Deliberate Leaders, Allison Dunn challenges the outdated CEO playbook and shares three transformative mindset shifts every modern leader needs.

Last year, Google invited me to come lead trainings for Aging Awareness Week. This was a truly enjoyable opportunity to work with some brilliant leaders. When I asked about who to expect in the audience, I expected to be told, “People over 55.” Instead, I was told, “This ERG is for folks over 40.”  40!  I don't think of 40 as “aging” just yet. But, I guess it is when society and culture start to stigmatize us, isn't it??   If you are a woman over 40 who is done shrinking and ready to lead with the clarity, power, and confidence that comes from your decades of wisdom, with zero apologies, this episode is for you! In this episode, I'm speaking directly to women over 40 who are ready to start leading with the full force of their lived experience. I know what it feels like to be in rooms where youth, speed, and loud voices are mistaken for leadership - but I'm here to tell you that your depth, clarity, wisdom, perspective, and emotional intelligence are exactly what's needed right now. We're not the past. We are the future of work. And, data backs this up: 42% of labor force growth in the next decade will come from people 55 and older, mostly women. Together, we'll explore how to navigate the double bind of age and gender, where you're expected to stay relevant but not be perceived as “too much.” I identify the forces at play (such as the intersectionality of ageism and sexism) and provide tools to help you reclaim your space with power and intention. You'll hear how your ability to read a room, speak with clarity, and lead for legacy, not ego, is your greatest asset. Your ability to listen deeply, ask better questions, and build meaningful collaborative (not competitive) relationships? That's the edge younger leaders are still learning. This episode is your reminder that you don't need to fight for a seat at the table—you are the table. Your leadership is expansive, rooted, sturdy, and deeply needed. So if you've been waiting for permission to own the room, this is it.

In part 2, we go deeper into the emotional side of leadership—how leaders create safety, why self-regulation matters more than charisma, and what to do when culture starts to drift. Adam shares how the best leaders he's seen are relentlessly curious, not just confident. If you've ever wondered how to lead with both clarity and care, this one's for you. This half of the conversation dives into trust, communication, and team growth. Adam and I unpack how misalignment shows up before it explodes, why "tough conversations" are actually moments of deep connection, and how to build a culture that self-corrects. You'll walk away with practical ways to notice drift, course correct early, and foster alignment that lasts. Highlights: What emotional safety looks like in growing teams Why trust is the core multiplier in leadership The role of humility in hiring and coaching How to rebuild trust after it's broken Why great leaders ask better questions, not give better answers Key Takeaways: Culture isn't built in offsites—it's shaped in everyday decisions Listening deeply is one of your most powerful leadership tools People will only be as honest as they feel safe Trust takes intention, not just time Next Steps for You: Schedule 1:1 time with someone on your team and just listen Reflect: What's one misalignment you've been avoiding? Start tracking what you tolerate—not just what you preach Connect with Adam Jackson here.

When the world feels heavy and hard, it can feel wrong or even selfish to feel joy amidst the suffering. But in this episode, we explore a powerful reframe: What if joy is not an escape, but an act of resistance or perhaps even revenge? As a leader, what if reclaiming your joy isn't just allowed—it's essential? As I've witnessed global unraveling happening alongside so many people's individual pain and heartbreak, I've seen firsthand how joy has shown up not in spite of this season, but through this season and these events. In this episode, we dismantle three major myths about joy and leadership, including the belief that modeling joy is tone-deaf or that it diminishes the seriousness of the world's pain. Instead, I make a compelling case for why joy is a mental health necessity, a leadership superpower, and a radical tool for personal and collective resilience. Backed by neuroscience and wisdom from some brilliant people who work in the field of joy and resilience research, this episode explores how joy rewires your brain (literally), boosts your team's ability to thrive, and helps you lead with more presence, empathy, and clarity, even when everything feels uncertain. You'll walk away with six tangible joy practices, such as joy hits, daily rituals, and joy-driven leadership tools, that will help you cultivate joy that is not only supportive of your own mental and physical health but contagious to those around you. Joy is not a betrayal of the pain. It's a balm. It's a strategy. It's your birthright—and it might just be your most powerful form of leadership.

Episode 94: Growing Up Your Business, Part 2 – The Strategic Power of PausingIn Part 2 of our Growing Up Your Business series, Patrick and Patsy dive into a bold but often overlooked strategy for growth: pausing on purpose.While the instinct to “push forward at all costs” feels natural in fast-moving companies, it can backfire when your foundation—leadership, structure, clarity, and process—isn't ready to support scale. This episode reframes the decision to pause growth not as failure, but as a strategic, courageous move that sets the stage for lasting success.Patrick shares a compelling story of a CEO who halted an aggressive growth plan after recognizing the team wasn't ready—an act that ultimately led to stronger, more sustainable results.You'll also learn about the Organizational Maturity Litmus Test, a practical tool to help leaders assess readiness for growth. If your organization is stuck in constant firefighting, relitigating decisions, or relying too heavily on top leadership, this episode is a must-listen.✅ Explore:Why pausing growth can accelerate long-term successCommon red flags that signal organizational immaturityHow to shift your mindset from chasing momentum to building itKey questions every leader should ask before scalingThis episode challenges senior leaders to take a hard look at where their organization stands—and what it takes to grow the right way.Follow us on Instagram: @thefrustratedceopodcast TikTok:   @TheFrustratedCEOPodcast  Contact us: info@thelyonsgroupconsulting.comWebsite: Frustrated CEOSocial: LinkedIn instagram: @thefrustratedceopodcast tiktok: @thefrustratedceopodcast

I was recently sitting in one of my Change Leadership classes for my Master's degree in Organizational Leadership, and my teacher asked us, “What would it look like if, as change leaders, we were to suspend certainty more often?”  I immediately made a note to myself, “podcast episode on suspending certainty!”  As someone who craves certainty but understands that nothing is certain, I often think about becoming more comfortable with impermanence.  I've never heard this referred to as “suspending certainty”, but this term struck me, and I knew I wanted to dig into it with you all!   In this episode, we talk about the importance of suspending certainty in leadership and personal growth. We talk through the benefits of embracing uncertainty, including: Increased curiosity Access to new perspectives Openness to learning and new opportunities Increased surprise, delight, and joy Gifts that come when we step out of our “I got it all figured out” ego Resilience, resourcefulness, tenacity, creativity, fun, and JOY are all born out of figuring out new things, embracing new realities, letting go of the old, and stepping into new opportunities where we don't know exactly how things will go.  What might happen for you if you felt prepared to step into uncertainty at any time?  Suspending certainty will help you with this preparation.  Episode Highlights: 00:00 Introduction and Exciting Updates 03:35 The Concept of Suspending Certainty 04:03 Understanding the Gifts of Suspending Certainty 11:10 Benefits of Embracing Uncertainty 20:10 Navigating Personal and Collective Uncertainty 30:30 Conclusion and Upcoming Workshop Links Mentioned: Attend my free workshop for women small business owners, Focused and Fierce: Lead with Purpose and Build Your Business in a Noisy World: saradean.com/fierce Watch Shameless Leadership episodes on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@saradeanspeaks Hire me to speak: saradean.com/speaking Coach with me: https://saradean.com/executive-coaching-services Connect with me on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/saradeanspeaks Interested in becoming a sponsor of the Shameless Mom Academy?

During a recent retreat I led for my business coaching clients, we had the opportunity to do a deep dive into visibility avoidance.  We discussed this phenomenon that happens when we want to grow in new ways, but the prospect of heightened visibility holds us back.  Sometimes, when we take steps into higher visibility opportunities, we are excited by the outcomes.  But, shortly after the perceived win, we feel a sense of vulnerability that pulls us back to our pre-visibility zone of comfort, and we determine that pre-visibility space is the safer or more appropriate place for us to stay for the time being.   Visibility can be wildly uncomfortable.  It can bring up a lot of thoughts, feelings, and beliefs in which we create swirling narratives that are more harmful than helpful.  When we get stuck here, we stunt our own growth.  We shrink ourselves.  We play small.  We allow ourselves to tap into only a fraction of our full potential.   In this episode, we explore the concept of visibility avoidance and highlight the common underlying self-limiting beliefs that hinder your personal and professional growth. I talk through how specific thought patterns undermine behavior patterns, keeping you accepting less than the best for yourself.  Then, I give you simple steps for overcoming visibility avoidance that will allow you to strategically increase visibility through small steps over time, allowing you to reach those goals you've been dreaming of in a way that feels exciting and rewarding!  This episode will help you recognize the payoffs of stepping into your full potential when you do it in a way that feels safe and aligned with who you are and where you want to go.  Episode Highlights: 00:00 The Magic of Expansive Time 04:14 Understanding Visibility Avoidance 12:03 Overcoming Self-Limiting Beliefs 16:18 Strategies for Increasing Visibility 24:47 Embracing Vulnerability and Growth Links Mentioned: Hire me to speak: saradean.com/speaking Coach with me: https://saradean.com/executive-coaching-services Connect with me on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/saradeanspeaks Interested in becoming a sponsor of the Shameless Mom Academy?

Discover how developing a flexible leadership mindset can transform your effectiveness as a woman executive. Our exclusive interview with Kevin Eikenberry, author of "Flexible Leadership," reveals powerful strategies for women leaders navigating today's complex business landscape. Why Women Executives Need a Flexible Leadership Mindset In today's rapidly evolving business environment, a flexible leadership mindset isn't just beneficial—it's essential for women executives who want to maximize their impact. According to McKinsey's 2024 Women in the Workplace report, women now hold 29% of C-suite positions, up from just 17% in 2015, yet the path to gender parity in senior leadership still extends decades into the future. For women executives facing unique challenges, developing flexibility in leadership approach provides a powerful advantage. A flexible leadership mindset allows women leaders to navigate complex situations while staying authentic to their core values. Defining the Flexible Leadership Mindset for Women Executives What exactly constitutes a flexible leadership mindset? According to Kevin Eikenberry, it means maintaining consistency in your core values while adapting your approach based on circumstances: "Flexible leadership means being consistent in our what and our why—our principles, values, and purpose—but flexible in our how," explains Eikenberry. "Like a mature tree that's firmly rooted yet bends with the wind, women executives with a flexible leadership mindset maintain their foundation while adapting their approach." The hallmark of this mindset is recognizing when "it depends" is the appropriate answer—and then thoughtfully considering what factors it depends on before determining how to proceed. About Kevin Eikenberry – Flexible Leadership Author Kevin Eikenberry is the author of over 20 books, including his latest, 'Flexible Leadership: Navigating Uncertainty and Leading with Confidence.' As the founder of the Kevin Eikenberry Group, he's advised leaders at organizations worldwide and created transformative leadership programs like the Remarkable Masterclass. The Business Cost of Inflexible Leadership for Women Executives Women executives who lack a flexible leadership mindset often find themselves locked into rigid approaches with statements like "that's just how I lead" or "they'll have to get used to it." This inflexibility creates significant limitations: Forces one approach onto diverse situations requiring different solutions Creates an identity barrier that's difficult to overcome Reduces opportunities for innovation and team development Dramatically lowers the odds of success in complex environments Reinforces potential gender stereotypes rather than transcending them Research indicates that companies with women in leadership positions are 30% more likely to outperform others—suggesting that when women executives leverage flexible approaches, organizations benefit. The Flexible Leadership Framework for Women Executives To help women executives develop a flexible leadership mindset, Eikenberry introduces the Cynefin Framework (pronounced kuh-NEV-in) as a tool for making sense of different leadership situations: 1. Clear Contexts for Women Executives Situations where cause and effect are obvious, best practices exist, and processes are established. Traditional leadership approaches often work well here. 2. Complicated Contexts for Women Executives Scenarios requiring expertise but where systems remain fairly ordered. Women executives benefit from gathering diverse perspectives before making decisions. 3. Complex Contexts for Women Executives The most common leadership environment today—where interconnected factors create unpredictability. Women executives thrive here by testing approaches, learning quickly, and adapting. 4. Chaotic Contexts for Women Executives Rare crisis situations requiring immediate action. Women executives need to act decisively to stabilize the situation before transit...

There is no denying we are in an extraordinarily tough season.  When things feel heavy and hard for an extended period of time, it's easy to feel a sense of constriction in our thoughts, mental health, and worldview.  It's easy to fall into a funk.  And, it can feel impossible to pull ourselves out of it.   During challenging seasons, it is crucial that you maintain a growth mindset. While it's important to acknowledge what is happening in the world around us, it is also critically important to maintain habits that allow you to tap into hope and possibility regularly.  If all you feel is constriction during hard seasons, you run the risk of shutting down completely. This doesn't serve you or anyone else.  Tapping into your growth mindset is going to be the superpower that allows you to keep going.   In this episode, I outline six practical strategies to help you advance a growth mindset, including collecting the correct evidence, tracking small wins, staying in motion, leaning on the right support system, recognizing harmful narratives, and giving yourself permission to practice self-compassion through rest and restorative activities.   Episode Highlights: 00:00 Introduction to Growth Mindset in Tough Times 02:23 Understanding Growth vs. Fixed Mindset 06:06 Six Ways to Improve Growth Mindset 12:12 Tracking Small Wins and Staying in Motion 15:34 The Importance of the Right Support System 18:22 Noticing and Changing Your Narratives 21:11 The Power of Rest and Self-Compassion Links Mentioned: Hire me to speak: saradean.com/speaking Coach with me: https://saradean.com/executive-coaching-services Connect with me on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/saradeanspeaks Interested in becoming a sponsor of the Shameless Mom Academy?
