Tired, cynical, or stuck? Learn 4 tools to beat creeping frustration at work.

Have you ever been in a situation where you just get worn down? Where all of the little things just seem to add up?

This is what I call creeping frustration…things that, by themselves, are hardly worth mentioning…but they add up over time to create a drag on your capacity, mood, and effectiveness. It’s the proverbial death by 1,000 cuts.

In this episode, I show you how to become more aware of the creeping frustrations that can affect you as a leader, and I give you four practical techniques for dealing with them, before they become a problem.

Moment #131 Have you ever thought of quantifying how well your team is performing?

You probably should, because so much of it is down to you, and how you lead.

The Value Delivery Rating is a useful guide. It’s simply the product of effectiveness and efficiency, and it shows you how much performance upside is yet to be captured.

If you want to go deeper into how you can supercharge your team’s performance, have a listen to Ep.340: Driving a High-Impact Value Focus.

Astronomer CEO on Coldplay Kisscam: A leadership lesson in trust, power & judgment.

Social media platforms have been full of schadenfreude (read: pleasure derived by someone from another person's misfortune), as the relationship between two company executives was inadvertently revealed for the world to see on the Jumbotron at a Coldplay concert.

We shouldn’t fall into the trap of making moral judgments. Everyone has to make their own choices about how they live their lives, and then accept the consequences - good, bad, or indifferent.

Karma is reliable, and it’s not for us to judge.

But this cautionary tale gives us plenty of leadership lessons to consider!

In this episode, I explore the themes of hubris, trust, power imbalances, and meritocracy, and give a prognosis for the future careers of the individuals involved.

You’re not responsible for everyone’s success. Here’s what you are responsible for.

As leaders, we often feel as though it’s our obligation to make sure that everyone on our team is happy, motivated, and succeeding.

As much as that would be nice, it is also incredibly unrealistic.

The notion that you can make everyone successful is somewhat ridiculous, given the myriad human conditions you’ll come across in the teams you lead.

What should your people reasonably expect from you, and what do they need to do to meet you half way?

If you want to go deeper into the reasons why you can’t rescue everyone, have a listen to Ep.65: How Do You Make Someone Change?.

How to handle pay reviews, bonuses, talent retention, and asking for a raise.

Last week, we released a bumper episode on remuneration — Ep.358: How to Pay People Properly. How do remuneration packages work? What’s involved in the different types of incentive payments? How is each pay component evaluated?

Having built the foundations, in this episode I take it to the next level by walking through 5 practical scenarios that you’re likely to face as a leader when you’re making decisions about people’s financial rewards.

Scenario 1: Handling annual salary reviews

Scenario 2: Using financial incentives to secure rare talent

Scenario 3: Using KPIs to determine short-term bonus payments

Scenario 4: Locking in a potential flight risk

Scenario 5: How to ask for a pay rise

Gaining a better understanding of these situations, and knowing how to handle them will massively increase your confidence for the conversations that inevitably follow!

🎁 We’ve created a completely free downloadable guide to go with this episode!

It walks you through the 5 most common pay scenarios leaders face, with practical tips for each one.

Ambition isn’t bad - here’s how to harness it without burning out.

There are plenty of people who will tell you that ambition is inherently bad. But without ambition there would be no innovation, no invention, and no progress.

So don’t be misled by people who tell you that ambition is bad or undesirable.

The trick is to learn how to manage your ambition so that it becomes a source of infinite good for you, and for those around you.

If you want to go deeper on how to manage your ambition in a healthy way that produces long-term satisfaction, have a listen to Ep.156: Managing Your Ambition.

The biggest cost item on most P&Ls is labour. You’ll probably spend more money this year paying people than you will on any other operating expense.

But do you know what you’re paying for? And do you know how to get the most from this major investment of your company’s resources?

We’ve had several questions from the leaders in our current cohort of Leadership Beyond the Theory on the relationship between remuneration, motivation, and performance.

That’s why, in this episode, I’m going to give you a definitive overview of how remuneration works. It gets pretty complicated in parts, so to make it easier, we’ve produced a free downloadable PDF (it's 13 pages, we didn't leave anything out), which has the complete remuneration guide

Let’s face it, you’re making decisions that affect people’s livelihoods, so it’s important you know what you’re doing.

From base salary, to STI’s…from long-term share options to sign-on bonuses…My goal is to completely demystify remuneration for you, so that you can be more judicious about how you apply financial rewards!

Is servant leadership helping - or hurting - your team’s performance? Here’s the truth.

The concept of servant leadership isn’t new. It departs from traditional leadership models by shifting the focus from the organisation to the people who work for it.

But is this a good idea?

Can your team still perform at its peak if you divest the accountability of your position?

Or is this noble sounding theory more likely to lull you into a false sense of security, which ultimately damages your team’s ability to thrive and grow?

If you want to go deeper on the myths surrounding servant leadership, have a listen to Ep.109: Servant Leadership.
