There’s More To Leadership Than Work! We are all teachers and learners - leadership is relational don't you think. In this episode I share my thoughts about the different generations in the workplace, what to do when someone is nearing the end of their career and how we can challenge conventional thinking about how we've always done it. It takes courage, grit, a desire to step outside of the current paradigm to dream a new world into being and above all a determination to meet yourself in your deepest places. Indeed, this is where the journey truly and deeply begins. This is not theory and rhetoric. This is not a cognitive course, tick a box exercise. This is real life, real leadership beyond the boardroom. It’s experiential learning at a deep level. Every month we gather to sit in circle. Connect to yourself, to your team, to other leaders, to your ancestry, to the elders, to the land, to wisdom. If you want to join the circle, uncover your purpose, define your legacy and find your tribe then reach out and find out more at https://www.alexandrajoy.com.au/ or drop me a message on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexandriajoy/ #culture #leadership #leadershipskills #leadershipdevelopment #howtobecomeasuccessfulperson #servantleadership #stewardeldership #servantleader

Managing Director of Eight Recruitment, Nadene Barretto fell into her career in recruitment 25 years ago. She learnt a lot about the industry, about people and about what it takes to lead well. Fast forward to 13 years ago and Nadene took the giant leap to start her own recruitment agency Eight Recruitment - a boutique agency servicing the Hunter Region in NSW, Australia. If there ever was an autobiography called “You heard her before you saw her”, Nadene would be the main character. But this version would star Nadene’s iconic and contagious laugh. Nadene, with her hubby Steve by her side, has built Eight to what it’s known for. For these two, turning the industry topsy-turvy is the goal, and attracting equally quirky but talented employees is the conversion. When starting Eight in 2011, Nadene had the goal to create a recruitment agency that stands out from the rest, to bring value and transparency, and fun. With years of experience and the knowledge to back it up, Eight was then born into Newcastle’s competitive recruitment market. In this interview we discuss Nadene's strategic decision to stand out as unique and human from their marketing and socials and especially within their office (tune in to the addendum right at the end to hear more about this). It's certainly magnetic - check them out here https://www.eightrecruitment.com.au/ Nadene talks about why it's importance to build a business and your leadership with a focus on the softness as well as the hard facts and yet to keep your resume and focus on more fact and less fluff. She encourages leaders to tell their story through facts and figures, to make a resume real, relevant and relatable. Check out this episode for a great conversation with Nadene for tips on LinkedIn, standing out and the leaders such as Steven Thomas and Jo Burston who have inspired her along her journey.

When Anthony started his career in recruitment 15 years ago he was the lowest performer at his agency. → He did the coffee chats thing → He tried all the cold calls → He was consistent in the follow-up But he was still at the bottom in his team. Over the next 5 years he: → Fessed up to being the "dumbest" in the room → Took advice from mentors → Discovered his big why and passion (Hint: You can steal his approach to grow your career too!) Things started to improve. He changed industries and began to look for ways to serve the industry. He grew his network and visibility while remaining humble. He then built the 3 key pillars I recommend to make the shift to leader: 1) Grow your confidence 2) Improve your competence 3) Increase your credibility Check out this episode for a great conversation with Anthony Nguyen, Aged Care Recruitment Manager and Host of the Podcast "Leaders in Aged Care" series and how after what he calls a slow start (I say normal) he then built on these 3 pillars to create an enviable career where other leaders seek him out!

Showing appreciation is important in any relationship, and it’s especially important with mentors, leaders and elders who have invested time and effort into helping you grow both personally and professionally. In a world that venerates the new, bright, and shiny, we can easily forget those with wisdom - our elders. Our elders may be past or present, they may have supported us in business, sports, life or spirituality. It's time to write a new leadership story - to go back to what all first nations tribes around the world practice - celebrating and honouring elders. Take a moment to sing up the Steward Elders in your world by writing a gratitude letter to them about how they have inspired, mentored and supported you. Whether you use it to send to them or just do it to sing them up in your own way won’t matter, just thinking of them, remembering their deeds helps sing up their spirit soul and memory. Join me and sing up and acknowledge the elders in your life as a force for good, for humanity and for the future. Create new conversations in your home or workplace through this practice, tell their story, tell your stories, tell your truth, share their wisdom and watch the ripples grow!
