If you are a leader with Millennials or Gen Zs working for you, or if you are yourself Millennial or Gen Z then this podcast episode is absolutely perfect for you!  Dr Liz Feigin is a specialist in optimising Millennial and Gen Z performance and retention and in this episode she provides some outstanding advice on that subject.  

I first saw Dr Liz when she was part of an intergenerational working panel discussion being run by The Leaders' Club in Deloitte's London offices.  I was extremely impressed with everything she had to say and immediately thought that she would make a great guest for Leading 4 Life "Stories".  

This fantastic interview just proves how right I was, because it is one of the most valuable and insightful discussions on the topic of intergenerational working that I have ever had.  It is a topic that constantly crops up when I deliver training and is raised by both the younger generations themselves and by those that lead them.  

Consequently, I am certain you will find this both interesting and useful; I really hope you enjoy the episode; please let me have some feedback with your thoughts if you can.

I first talked about credibility as a leadership theme way back in Episode 2 of the podcast when, for obvious reasons, I was seeking to establish my own credibility with you the audience.  At that stage I bundled it together with self awareness and imposter syndrome, but I mentioned at the time that I would return to all these themes later to cover them in more detail.

In this episode I examine the issue of credibility in rather more detail.  I highlight the fact that it is borrowed early but needs to be earned over time, and then move through a series of related themes that hopefully will prompt you to look in the mirror and do a health check on your own standing with regard to professional credibility.  The question I pose near the end is the critical one: "if your title disappeared tomorrow,  what would people still trust you for?"  

I hope you enjoy the episode and, as ever, please let me know what you think?

One of the most fascinating (and frequent) things I was privileged to do whilst I was the Assistant Chief of Defence Staff (Operations) was to work in the UK Government's Crisis Centre, colloquially known as COBRA.
COBRA is a place which few will ever have the chance to see, never mind work in so, in this episode, within the bounds of what I can say, I attempt to shed a bit of light on what it is like and how it operates.  
I talk about the physical site itself and how it works, the various levels at which COBRA meetings can function, and I give a few examples of the types of meetings that I was part of during my time.  
Inevitably much of the detail about specific events remains classified and so I can't go there, but I hope this short episode gives you at least a flavour of the place so that the next time you hear it being mentioned on the UK news, you can perhaps visualise the environment a little more clearly. 
I really hope you enjoy the episode; please let me know what you think!

Season 4 of Leading 4 Life "Stories" kicks off in style with an interview with Andrew Dyckhoff, the Founder and CEO of Energising Leaders.  
Andrew has a fascinating career and very diverse career history with a range of CEO roles and some momentous achievements behind him.
As the Founder and CEO of Energising Leaders he is now working to share the huge stockpile of knowledge and experience he has built up with other leaders at all levels.  
Given that we have similar objectives in our current roles, Andrew and I have a great conversation not only covering his career story, but also about leadership in the round.  I really hope you enjoy what I thought was a fascinating discussion.  Please let me know what you think!

In this final episode of Season 3, I provide a review of Leading 4 Life "Stories" across the year of 2025.  It is a season that includes 15 personal story episodes, 11 thematic episodes covering a wide range of themes, and 26 amazing guest interviews.  
As I reviewed what we have covered this season, I was really struck by the diversity of the content, and especially of all the fantastic guests that have generously given their time to be on the show; I am immensely grateful to all of them for their candour and terrific input.  
If you are looking for a quick summary of what has been included over the past year, this episode will help to give you that, and although I obviously hope you enjoy it all, I am sure you will find at least something that is of real interest to you.
Looking forward to Season 4 and 2026, there will be plenty more stories, themes and guest interviews for you to enjoy, and I very much hope that you continue to watch or listen to the show.  
Please do subscribe, follow, comment, and provide me some feedback.  The feedback is something that I find extremely useful, and subscribing or following really helps to boost the podcast across the algorithms that manage the various platforms.
I am very grateful for your support across the year, and I look forward to giving you more great content in the year to come!
