ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
Ever wondered whether people experience your leadership the way you think they do?
Leadruption explores the funny, frustrating, and occasionally uncomfortable contradictions hiding inside modern leadership.
Hosted by Emma Last, Informed Leadership consultant, People Director and speaker. This is leadership development with less corporate nonsense and a little more humanity.
Each short episode explores one idea, behaviour, or Leadruptionary word, from difficult conversations and decision-making to trust, culture, AI, authority, and the everyday habits that quietly shape how people experience us.
It’s for leaders of businesses, people, communities, and movements who want sharper judgement, stronger trust, and a more informed way to lead.
Expect humour, disruption, honest reflection, and the occasional “Oh heck. I do that.”
New 5–6 minute podshots every weekday morning.

That’s the uncomfortable territory between what we say, what we believe we do, and what other people actually experience. In this first episode of Leadruption, Emma Last explores the Say–Do Gap, th…
Leadership is full of contradictions. We want honesty until someone tells us something we don’t want to hear. We tell people to switch off, then send them a quick question at 9pm.
