Helping Organisations Thrive with Julian Roberts

#67 Hilary Bartle | How to use the coalition of the willing to lead your organisation

Today I am interviewing Hilary Bartle who is the CEO of Stonepillow, Stonepillow support and empower homeless and vulnerable people to achieve sustainable independence and well-being.
 
Hilary shares how she use partnerships and collaboration to ensure she meets the vision and objectives of the charity. Also, it is important that she approaches her leadership with a model of the coalition of the willing. In the business world, a coalition of the willing is a mission-driven group of advocates, including project sponsors and cross-functional team members. These advocates use their skills, experiences, and networks to develop a new idea into a product or service and help bring it to market. Through a coalition of the willing, you can create excitement, inspire collaboration, and achieve alignment among leadership to formalise a new project or initiative.

#66 Julie Kapsalis | How to use your network to make key things happen

Today I am interviewing Julie Kapsalis who is the Deputy Chief Executive of Chichester College Group.
 
Julie shared how she uses her network and those around her to make an impact and get key projects done, the power of her network. Although she galvanizes those in a project around a common goal, she is mindful of ensuring she picks those who are early adopters and maybe influencer's for the project. And also it is about being open and honest about the project and whether do all the goals align with each partner, ensuring that the focus is on the bigger size of the prize that will benefit all of those in the project. Julie underpins her leadership with compassion and understanding of her teams.

#65 Kevyn Rustici | What HR leaders need to do to lead the people agenda in the new normal

Today I am interviewing Kevyn Rustici who is a Strategic Human Capital Consultant for Gallagher.
 
Kevyn shared his insights and views on how HR leaders can help shape the future of work by truly focusing on the people doing the work, creating cultures focused on the emotional, mental, physical, and financial well-being of the individual. His approach is for HR leaders to use data and gain insights from this data. Having new information (People Data) available and utilising these insights will help to improve decision making, we will then use our gut, instinct and intuition less to make pivotal business decisions. Kevyn's idea is changing HR departments from a "cost center" to a "profit center" is not some crazy idea it's an evolution, a change of perspective and intention which will drive the necessary changes required in the new normal, because we aren't "Going Back to Normal."

#64 Glenys Chatterley | The importance of networking as a leader

Today I am interviewing Glenys Chatterley who is the MD of Effective Business Network (ebn).
 
Glenys has been networking her whole business life, something that she realised was important when she left the corporate world to start her own business. Glenys shares her passion, knowledge and experience of networking, and that it is not just for business owners but also leaders in organisations. And as we now start more in-person networking Glenys shared a tip that has help her and many others to create an impact whilst networking, that the 3, 3 and 3.
Often entering a room with lots of people can be overwhelmed, the key is to have a strategy and breakdown the approach, so initially speak to 3 people that you know really well, don;t spend too much time but arrange to have coffee another time. Then move onto to 3 people you know a little, so you can start to build upon that relationship. And now move onto 3 people you don't know, perhaps the previous conversations have introduced them to you, or ask them are anyone you should talk to in the room. This way you would have had 9 meaningful conversations at least, you can go again if time permits. Glenys shared other key strategies for networking.
