Do you believe you're capable of accomplishing extraordinary things? How about your team? In this episode, Peter Docker, author of Leading from the Jumpseat, talks about leadership that lifts people up and gives them the space they need so that, when the time is right, they can take the lead. In business and in life, handing over the reins to others is inevitable. Everyone will eventually leave their team, retire from being the CEO, or see their kids leave home and lead their own lives. Leading from the Jumpseat enables us to embrace this inevitability and is a metaphor for how we can choose to lead. It's about the journey we take so we can hand over control to others, who are then equipped to continue forward. Jumpseat Leadership is a way of interacting with people that will enhance performance in any given situation - during normal business, times of crisis, and life in general. Becoming a Jumpseat Leader takes practice and Peter gives you a practical guide to handing over control. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

When you are in crisis, do you immediately tighten your grip and take control of the situation? It's very common for leaders to do just that. But what if I told you that we are called to do the opposite? What if, instead, you boldly loosen your grip and empower others to find a possible solution? It's not always easy to relinquish control, but it is inevitable at work and in life. Our guest, Peter Docker, shares how to courageously hand over the reins, and empower others to step up and take action.

Calum was in command of the flight having been certified as a Captain the day prior. The senior pilot who had signed-off on his captaincy, Peter Docker, was in the cockpit merely as a ride-along, hitching a fight home to England. Shortly after leaving SFO, just a few hundred feet from the ground, the flight encountered unexpected and significant turbulence - rocking and bouncing the plane and its passengers like ragdolls. Knowing it was Calum's first flight as full Captain, Peter Docker knew exactly what he needed to do. He sat, hands folded in his lap, with full confidence in the abilities of the pilot he'd certified. That experience was the start of Peter Docker's philosophy of Jumpseat Leadership. It's a fascinating, powerful, and surprisingly effective approach to leading. In this episode of What's the Point?, Docker speaks with host Bill Ellis, sharing the essence of Jumpseat Leadership, lifting up others so they can be extraordinary, and how love is at the very heart of leadership!

This episode is sponsored by Davwill Consulting. Emotional agility? Yep, it's needed more now than ever. Let's chat! Click Here David Mead believes work can be something we want to do, not just something we have to do. And most often, what determines our experience at work is culture. David helps leaders and organisations bridge the gap between the culture they talk about and the culture others actually experience. That culture congruence leads to trust, human connection, innovation, performance, and sustainable progress. David began his career in corporate training in 2004. In 2009 he joined speaker and author Simon Sinek's team. For the next 10 years, as the first of Simon's “Igniters”, David helped share Simon's simple, inspiring ideas through speaking and workshops to over 225 companies on 5 continents. In 2017, David applied his years of practical experience and learning and co-authored, with Peter Docker and Simon Sinek, Find Your Why: a practical guide for discovering the WHY of an individual, team, or organisation. It has sold over 400,000 copies and is translated into 25 different languages. In December 2019, David chose to step away from Simon's team to focus on opportunities to take a more active role in guiding leaders to transform their cultures for the long term. Through speaking, training, consulting, and other avenues, David brings a relatable, human approach to leadership. He shares simple, practical, everyday tools leaders can use to create positive change for themselves and those around them. Throughout his career, David has seen and experienced leadership at both ends of the spectrum and what a difference authentic, human-centered leadership can make in how people feel about and experience their work. David earned an MBA in 2011. He concentrated his course work on Organisational Development as much as possible in order to be better equipped to help leaders create environments in which trust, human connection, and sustainable performance are natural results.

In every episode, I ask our guest to share with us a favorite quote or mantra from a leader and why they chose that quote. In episode 44 Jamie Parker shared a quote from our guest today, Matt Whiat. I reached out to Matt and asked him to be a guest on the podcast and I'm glad that he accepted. Matt is the Founding Partner at the Champman & Co Leadership Institute whose parent company is Barry-Wehmiller, well known for combining people-centric and lean thinking. In his role at Chapman & Co, Matt draws on over 20 years of leadership experience as a former military officer, helping organizations create cultures that put people and business in harmony. Chapman and Co believes culture drives organizational outcomes. In other words, culture doesn't eat strategy for breakfast; it feeds it breakfast (and every other meal!). They help build an organization and/or team culture intentionally to deliver deliberate outcomes. Links: Connect with Matt on LinkedIn Connect with Chapman and Co. on Twitter Chapman & Co.

Our current guest was a Royal Air Force pilot for 24 years. During this time he also held various management positions in the UK Ministry of Defense (MoD). Among other things, he was the Deputy Team Leader negotiating the largest civil MoD contract that included the purchase of Airbus aircraft and other infrastructure worth 13 billion pounds. During this time he began to work as a personal coach for leadership and management. He has been doing this as co-founder of Why Not since 2007. He is the Co-Author of “Find Your Why: A Practical Guide for Discovering Purpose for You and Your Team” which is the (I think even better) Workbook to Simon Sinek's “Start with Why”. The book was published in 26 languages and sold over 380,000 times. Today he describes himself as a Speaker, a Teacher and a Navigator. Since 4 years we are on our “way to new work”. How can a topic that plays such an important part in our everyday life create more meaning in our lives again? How do we get people to draw strength and motivation from their daily work again? How can one succeed in living a happy, healthy, productive and fulfilling life even in such difficult times? We are looking for methods, role models, experiences, tools and ideas that bring us closer to the core of New Work! We are always concerned with the question of whether everyone can really find and live what they really, really want in their innermost being. How can we make sure that each and everyone of us will find their inner driving force. You are at “On the Way to New Work” - today with Peter Docker.
Peter Docker, father of 2, is on the show today. He's served for 25 years in the British Royal Air Force, he has been a Force Commander during combat flying operations and has seen service across the globe. His career has spanned from professional pilot, to leading an aviation training and standards organization, teaching postgraduates at the UK's Defence College, to flying the British Prime Minister around the world. Peter has also led multibillion-dollar international procurement projects and served as a crisis manager and former international negotiator for the UK Government. He now helps people and organizations accomplish extraordinary things as an international speaker and teacher, having been to 92 countries teaching some of the principles we're going to talk about today. This week's Dad Do or Die (3Ds) from this episode are:Build a network for friends/neighbors who can positively influence your kids. Whether that's extended family, neighbors, Big Brother/Big Sister, All Pro Dads, church, gym, wherever, having a network of other men can be hugely helpful in your kids life. Peter shares about the network of father figures he had growing up after his biological father abandoned him and his brother. Also, how important the network of close friends that he had helped his family when he was serving in the Royal Air Force away on missions during the Gulf War.If you are away from the family for whatever reason, short interactions can be more memorable and impactful than long scheduled nightly calls with the kids. Peter used to only get 15 minutes a week to talk to his family when he was stationed away, luckily we have more than that these days. A simple phone call between meetings or putting the laptop or phone down and giving your child full attention, can boost their confidence and strengthen your relationship. If you are facing a challenge as a parent, think about how you can change the context of the situation. Peter shares a fantastic story about how he approached his son who was adamant about getting a large motorbike, which is high risk with the narrow streets in the UK. He and his wife were opposed but how he changed the context was brilliant. And a spoiler alert - he didn't just say no. We cover a lot of other great stories and ideas we can use to be better men, leaders, and fathers. Let's get to it.

Have you ever reached a goal, earned a promotion, received a major accolade and still felt empty? Yeah, me too. It's likely that we were focusing on the end result more than the "why" behind our actions. Here's where David Mead comes in. David believes that each of us deserves to wake up inspired, feel safe at work and fulfilled at the end of the day. Standing shoulder to shoulder with Simon Sinek and the Start With Why team since 2009, David works with leaders to help them create an environment where that's possible—an environment where people show up to work because they want to, not because they have to. Everything David does is designed to propel people forward so they can make their mark on the world. He travels internationally to help people shift their perceptions so that they can become inspiring leaders, find meaning in what they do, and help others do the same. David is globally recognized as the HOW guy to Simon's WHY. Using his years of practical experience, David co-authored Find Your Why with Simon Sinek and Peter Docker. In this conversation, we go deep and talk about the struggle of being a twenty-something, how to find your "why" and what the beautiful end result can be.
