In this episode, I’m excited to introduce my brand new co-host, Lara Cullen, as we launch a new series within the podcast: Impactful Teams.  

 

We’re diving into what really makes a team impactful - not just in terms of performance, but in how aligned, influential, and sustainable their success is. 

 

Lara and I share our brand-new Impactful Teams framework to help teams grow their impact. We talk about why psychological safety, emotional intelligence, and shared purpose are essential ingredients, and why even high-performing teams can still have hidden challenges holding them back. 

 

We also share the story behind how Lara and I started working together and how our different but complementary strengths have shaped the way we support leaders and teams. 

 

If you’re leading a team—or want to take your already successful team to the next level—this episode will give you practical insights and a clear starting point to increase your team's influence and impact. 

 

In this episode, you’ll hear: 

  • Why I’ve invited Lara Cullen to co-host episodes focused on Impactful Teams 
  • The story of how we met and why we decided to collaborate 
  • Our Align–Amplify–Embed framework for building Impactful Teams 
  • What really drives team success (hint: it’s not just the individuals) 
  • The 5 key elements of team alignment using our TEAMS model 
  • How to amplify your team’s voice and influence across your organisation 
  • The importance of embedding change to make it last 
  • How you can find out how impactful your team really is right now 

 

This is Influence & Impact for Leaders, the podcast that helps leaders like you increase your impact and build a happy and high performing team. Each episode delivers focused, actionable insights you can implement immediately, to be better at your job without working harder.
