Her diverse background as an executive coach, psychometric profiler, and leadership facilitator gives her a rare ability to blend strategic thinking with meaningful, people-first practices. Throughout our discussion, Abi emphasized the importance of not just what people do, but how they do it—and most importantly, how it makes them feel.One of the key themes for me was how Abi highlighted that while many organizations want to do better in these spaces of leadership and cultivating a workforce that want to actually come into work and enjoy being art of something meaningful, organisations often overlook the most obvious source of insight on culture which is the experiences of their own people.ACCESS THE PODCAST LIBRARY & EVERY EPISODE, DEBRIEF & DOCUMENT CLICK HEREPODCAST GIFT - Get your FREE subscription to essential Firefighting publications HERE A big thanks to our partners for supporting this episode.GORE-TEX Professional ClothingMSA The Safety CompanyIDEXHAIX Footwear - Get offical podcast discount on HAIX HEREXendurance - to hunt performance & endurance 20% off HERE with code ffp20Lyfe Linez -  Get Functional Hydration FUEL for FIREFIGHTERS, Clean no sugar  for daily hydration. 80% of people live dehydratedSupport the show***The views expressed in this episode are those of the individual speakers.

On this episode of the Customers First Podcast, we welcome Damon Lembi, a seasoned leader in the learning and development space, as we delve into the intricacies of building a customer-centric culture through effective leadership. As the CEO of Learn It, a live learning platform that has empowered over 2 million learners, Damon brings a wealth of knowledge from his sports and business backgrounds. Our conversation revolves around fostering an organizational learning culture and how this can drive personal and organizational growth. A key theme in our discussion is the concept of a "learn-it-all" culture versus a "know-it-all" mindset. Damon emphasizes that fostering an environment where employees feel safe to experiment, fail, and learn is vital to success. He discusses how leaders must model this behaviour by being vulnerable and sharing their learning journeys, thus encouraging team members to engage in their growth. He underscores authentic leadership as creating a space where everyone can thrive and innovate, enhancing customer experiences. We also explore the crucial role of mentorship in nurturing a learning organization. Damon explains that internal mentorship programs can bridge knowledge gaps and facilitate cross-departmental understanding, breaking down silos critical for collaboration. Additionally, he discusses the reciprocal nature of mentoring, highlighting how leaders often learn as much from their mentees as they teach, further enriching the learning environment. Our conversation touches on the ever-changing work landscape, emphasizing the need for leaders to develop learning agility—the ability to learn, unlearn, and relearn. Damon stresses that as the world evolves, so must the skills and processes we rely on, urging leaders to embrace change rather than resist it. The rise of artificial intelligence is also addressed, with Damon encouraging listeners to engage with emerging technologies to remain relevant in tomorrow's workforce. As we conclude, Damon shares actionable insights on creating a feedback-rich environment where trust and open communication flourish. He reminds us that self-awareness is foundational to effective leadership and decision-making. Leaders can better engage with their teams by peeling back the layers of self-awareness, leading to more authentic interactions.   Damon's Contact Information: Website: thelearnitallleader.com LinkedIn: @damonlembi Book Link: The Learn It All Leader   Tacey's Contact Information: Website: taceyatkinson.com LinkedIn: @TaceyAtkinson Thank you for tuning in, and I look forward to having more valuable conversations together in the future. Remember: Customer-Centric Cultures Create Magical Customer Experiences. Now Go, Create the Magic!

If you think pens, soda, and car wax sound like the most boring things ever—think again. Our guest, marketing powerhouse Jeff Werderman, has spent 30 years leading at brands like Coca-Cola, Boost Mobile, and ArmorAll, and now he's running the show at Pentel of America (yes, the pen company). But this isn't about writing instruments—it's about writing the new rules for leadership.   Jeff's got some seriously controversial takes on what's wrong with today's workforce, and why your leadership style is probably driving your best people straight out the door. From leading teams of 80 to navigating the Gen Z takeover, Jeff digs into why creating a learning culture—where even the most junior employees act like CEOs of their own desks—is the only way forward.   He doesn't hold back on why hiring for attitude (and the occasional ego bruising) is more important than skill sets and how letting your team think for themselves could be your secret weapon. The episode is loaded with controversy and wisdom. Ready for the hard truth? According to Jeff, you need to embrace the chaos and hand over the reins. And if your team isn't roasting your “lame” social media content, well... they might already be eyeing the exit.   This episode will leave you rethinking everything from your hiring strategy to how you manage your teams. Takeaways: hire for opinions, embrace transparency, and if your employees aren't calling you out—ask yourself why!   Have questions or personal experiences?
