198 - The Human Capabilities Leaders Need Now

What kind of leader do you need to become now?

Leadership has not stood still over the last 12 months. AI is accelerating, workplace expectations are shifting and organisations are navigating growing uncertainty. So this episode explores a deeper question for ambitious professionals - not only what do you want to achieve, but who do you need to become?

I reflect on why human capabilities matter even more now, especially confidence, clarity, Cultural Intelligence and challenging conversations, the four pillars at the heart of my work.

Plus, in this episode, I share the latest thinking behind the audiobook edition of Become a Global Leader, including why I recorded a new bonus chapter.

What you will learn in this episode:

• The leadership shift from 'what you need to achieve' to 'who you need to become'
• How AI makes human leadership capabilities more important
• A new definition for confidence in this context
• How leaders can create clarity when answers are uncertain
• How Cultural Intelligence helps leaders develop greater range to respond
• What recording an audiobook taught me about being human

Where do you need to experiment more?
