Hello hello book lovers! We haven’t talked books for a little while, so I wanted to share a recommendation that I got from Matt Jones this evening – Next Level Leadership: Nine Lessons from Conscious Leaders by Ruth Farenga.
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Next-Level-Leadership-lessons-conscious/dp/1781337101
I’ll leave you to add some more on why you’re loving it so much, Matt, but you’ve certainly got me sold!
What’s everyone else reading at the moment?

Tonight’s call was a quieter one but it gave me a great chance to get to know Matt Jones at little better and to see how he’s progressing through the course. One of the elements we’ve discussed a couple of times now is how to be a better leader, the kind who is able to connect with and learn from everyone you work with.
Matt shared with me that he’s been finding Ruth Farenga’s work of particular inspiration at the moment so I thought I’d share her podcast with you all in case it’s of interest to others working with Catapult at the moment! https://www.consciousleaders.org.uk/podcast
In the meantime, I hope to see more of our learners next week so we can continue exchanging ideas like this, providing feedback and setting accountability to keep you going whilst you work through Catapult.

Thanks so much to everyone who joined us on today’s Fireside – they really are a highlight of my month! In summary, we talked about:
– overcoming the feeling of needing to know/be seen to have ”everything” in place before we begin,
– changing assumptions that are made about us,
– networking with diverse experiences from rising stars to established names to learn from different points of view,
– understanding your value and how to talk it up,
– creating clarity so that both parties meet expectations,
– using generalist superpowers and when to niche,
– managing your workload as you would crops – so that they don’t all ripen at once…
– and so much more.
There were a few questions that I couldn’t quite get to (which I love btw, thanks for asking such great questions!) so I thought I’d ask these to our brilliant panel on here instead…

Thank you for hosting an awesome event Lexi Radcliffe-Hart – it was truly great hearing all the questions and the panel’s answers!

I’ll speak to both the investment in self and success questions:
I know I’m going to sound biased but coaching was hugely useful for me and it’s ultimately why I ended up also becoming trained as a coach. I was miserable at my 9-5 and so having someone else to talk to and challenge me and hold me accountable to change was why I ended up saying yes to a freelance gig and not a fulltime job offer.
That’s the mental side of things – as a freelancer you’re often going to c…

Ruth’s book is easy to read and well structured, exploring the success factors as explained by numerous successful “conscious” leaders. It’s a great salve for the harsh leadership styles that do exist and she focuses on low friction, trust soaked inclusive stories from some of the UK’s best leaders. Her podcast, The Conscious Leader is also worth a listen, front to back.
