Stay ConnectedNo Bullsh!t Leadership is a podcast for leaders who want to become truly exceptional. Each week, your host, Wall Street Journal Bestselling author Martin G Moore, shares the secrets of high performance leadership; the career accelerators that you can’t learn in business school, and your boss is unlikely to share with you. Step away from the theoretical view on leadership, and learn from a successful CEO who’s already walked the path.

Episode #280 // “The productivity decline isn’t just a flash in the pan: it’s a structural reset that we're all going to have to grapple with in the coming year.”
At the end of each year, I spend time analyzing a variety of sources to come up with a view on the range of possible outcomes for the year ahead—across business, politics, and society in general.
Without trying to make any fearless predictions, I like to have some sense of how the world is trending: trend is your friend!
Using sources as diverse as The Economist, the Wall Street Journal,The Australian Financial Review, The Atlantic, Fast Company, and even Wikipedia, this episode provides a consolidated view of what awaits us, as leaders. You can find the links to all the sources I use here.
I start at the macro end of town, and then circle in on some of the issues that you’re likely to face with people, culture, and performance in 2024. And it’s the only time in the year that I provide anything resembling political commentary on the No Bullsh!t Leadership podcast!
This is more than just an invaluable, curated guide to help you navigate the coming year: it’s also guaranteed to make you the most interesting person at any dinner party!

Moment #50 // Many young leaders who have to manage older, more experienced workers find the whole process quite intimidating. Equally, older leaders who may have gotten by in their careers using a more directive leadership style, are confounded by their inability to lead millennials to do what they want them to do!
If you’re a leader, you may have workers from four different generations in your team… from Baby Boomers, all the way through to Gen Z. Although each of these generations has defining characteristics, the leadership principles remain the same.
It’s critical to treat everyone on their merits, and lead them by tapping into their individual motivations and personal drivers. If we start to manage people based purely on generational stereotypes, we’re bound to get it wrong.
You can take a deeper dive into these insights by listening to Ep.242: Leading Older Workers and Ep.51: The Millennial Dilemma.

Episode #279 // “Most of us are highly rational leaders, and our instinct is to make the long-term planning process a purely intellectual exercise. But when it's done really well, it's much more than this — they have to protect their position, their image, and their identity”

Moment #49 // There are two types of people in the world: lifters and leaners. Lifters carry the burden for themselves and others… they take on more accountability than the average person, and they don’t rely on anyone else to make things happen.
And leaners? Well they’re happy to let the lifters do the work!
Anyone who’s genuinely successful (and I’m not simply talking about people with power, status, and money) is a lifter!
From the earliest available opportunity, you need to adopt the mentality and mindset of a lifter. Like everything in life, you get to choose your path, and make it happen… or not!
You can take a deeper dive into these insights by listening to Ep.253: Lifters and Leaners.

Episode #278 // We’ve been producing this podcast now for over five years and, as we traditionally do at this time of year, Em and I are taking a look back on the year of podcast content. We’ve picked out our favorite episodes for you to go back and listen to while you’re enjoying some downtime in the New Year.
We’ve had another cracking year at Your CEO Mentor: one where our global reach continues to grow! I’ve been living in the US now for over 2 years… Em’s daughter, Florence, is now walking and talking – a proper little human – and everything is going pretty much to plan.
But it’s not without its challenges! In last week’s episode, we reviewed our 2023 business performance, looking at the things that went really well, and the things that didn’t go so well.
You may have missed a few episodes in the last 12 months, especially if you’re new to the podcast. So, in an effort to make sure you still get to capture the real gold, we’ve curated what we think are some of our not-to-be-missed moments.
These episodes capture the essence of key leadership imperatives, like building your credibility, and knowing how to tread that fine line between confidence and arrogance! We know you’ll love this cheat sheet for getting the “best of the best” from No Bullsh!t Leadership.

Moment #48 // One of the things that characterizes a high-performing team is the ability to withstand and harness the value that lies in healthy disagreement.
In this moment, I look at the example of a failed company that demanded their employees needed to be loyal, above all else.
In my book, loyalty means fearlessly telling the truth to the people above you, no matter what. But to them, it meant bowing to their authority and not challenging them in any way… particularly if they had bad or inconvenient news to deliver.

Episode #277 // The end of year is a time of renewal. We all instinctively take the opportunity to reflect on the year just gone, and reset our expectations for the year ahead.
In this episode, Em and I do something we’ve never done before… we pull the curtain back on our business, Your CEO Mentor, and give you a window into our 2023 scorecard.
How did we do? What were the things we focused on that didn’t actually pan out the way we expected? Which things went really well?
We talk through our end-of-year stocktake, so you can see the level at which we assess the initiatives, how we think about our failures, and what lessons we take forward.
It’s the best and the worst of Your CEO Mentor in 2023! We’re going to examine our top 3 successes, and our 3 greatest failures...so buckle up!

Moment #47 // There are literally thousands of articles and posts written every week about the attributes of great leaders. Humility, Transparency, Fallibility, Integrity. Although it’s fun and interesting to muse on these attributes, they lack any real clarity.
If you actually decided that you wanted to take action to develop one of these attributes, where would you start? What habits and disciplines would you need to develop?
Rather than debating the merits of leadership attributes, we need to focus more on leadership competencies. What do leaders need to competently do, in order to successfully deliver value for their teams and companies?
You can take a deeper dive into these insights by listening to Ep.25: The Roadmap to Exceptional Leadership.
I also recommend listening to Ep.229: Confidence, Arrogance, and Self-Doubt.

Episode #276 // One of the biggest barriers to change, in any area of your life, is your own awareness of the size of the gap—that gap between your current state and your desired state.
And I’m no different to anyone else! I’ve struggled with this principle over the years in a number of different areas…
When I stacked on a few pounds after a running injury, I knew how much work it would take to get back to racing weight… and that became a barrier to starting my recovery process.
Often, the gap is so daunting that we feel like we don’t know where to begin. But in almost every case… we actually do! We just don’t want to face into it, because we know that, once we start, we have a mountain of work ahead of us.
In this episode, I take you through the process of not just starting, but mastering what you know you need to be doing, as a leader.
I simply give you a couple of leadership areas where most of you are probably underdone, and help you to work out both where to start, and how to keep momentum, by gaining the confidence that you will be successful… if only you can persevere!

Moment #46 // As you transition through to more senior leadership roles, you’ll realize that you can’t continue to compensate for your people when they don’t deliver the results you want. You have to do your job, not their job.
There are all sorts of repercussions to dipping down, and not working at the right level. Like, not focusing on your own job; like, diluting the accountability model; like, robbing your people of the chance to grow. Doing your own job positions you to lead your people to exceptional performance.
You can take a deeper dive into these insights by listening to Ep.7: Working at the Right Level.
