No Bullsh!t Leadership

If you want to improve your team’s performance, single-point accountability is the biggest, most impactful lever you can pull.

Most decisions you make as a leader look reasonable on the whiteboard.

But in the real world, you're rarely deciding between black and white options. You're choosing between two things that both matter: and something has to give. That's the dilemma. And how you handle it speaks volumes about the kind of leader you really are.

The ability to make trade-offs confidently, separates average leaders from truly great ones, and there are no hard and fast rules.

In this episode, Em and I break down six of the most common — and most consequential — trade-offs leaders face.

Why your direct reports are underperforming and how to turn it around.

What happens when you give one manager 50 direct reports and call it innovation?

Chaos.

In this episode, I cut through the corporate delusion that flatter structures are better, and I give you the insights to help you confidently build a structure that actually delivers results.

I start with the fundamentals: why organisations need teams, why teams need structure, and why leaders are essential to making both work.

I focus on the main tool of indiscriminate cost cutting: span of control, and I leave you with four practical factors you can use right now to assess whether your own structure is working for you, or against you.
