ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
Join Simon Dowling as he explores the wonderful world of teams. This show is perfect for those who seek to unleash the true power of teams in their organisation. In each episode, Simon shares insights from his own work as a leadership team coach, as well as chatting with guests about their own experiences of leading teams. Simon began his career as a commercial lawyer, but his real passion for teaming was born out of his experience as an improviser, having trained and performed for many years - including in the hit Australian TV show, "Thank God You’re Here". Simon is also the author of “Work with Me: How to get people to buy into your ideas” - a practical guide to influencing and leading without authority. www.simondowling.com.au

In this episode, Simon takes a moment to reset his intentions around the podcast - and get back in the groove. We then dive into the idea of a team’s conversational intelligence. Because the way a group engages with each other and with important topics can make or break not just relationships, but …
Meetings. Some people seem to love them. Some people hate them. But not all meetings are made equal. And if there’s been one constant theme throughout 2023, it’s that teams aren’t doing meetings as well as they could. If the last episode was all about “Finishing Strong”, then this episode is about …
Every team enters phases of finishing. Projects, tasks, quarters, years… How you finish matters. It not only leaves you with a sense of pride and achievement - it sets you up for a strong start to the next chapter. In this first episode for Season 2, recorded with only 7 weeks left in 2023, Simon r…
Teams can be noisy places. Distractions, meetings, corridor conversations - all of which can make it hard to get the important work done. So much so, it can sometimes be hard to get important work done.

You often hear leaders talk about the importance of hiring for 'cultural fit'. But is that always such a good idea?? What if the REAL strength in teams actually comes from DIFFERENCE? In which case, is there a better way to think of the different kinds of people you need in your team to achieve bal…
Why do so many teams get caught in conversations that are ‘easy’, but not important. So often, opportunities to tackle big picture questions are wasted as people get stuck “in the weeds”. In this episode, Simon explores why this happens, and how you can prevent it. If you enjoy this episode, please…
“How often should our team meet?” I get asked this question a lot, and I think it’s for a couple of reasons. First up, most teams are struggling in some way to get meetings right. Second, meetings have such an impact on a team’s culture and its ability to get stuff done. In this episode of Teaming …
“What do you think underpins every great team?” That’s a question someone asked me recently and, after a moment of reflection, two things came to mind: connection and co-creation. In this episode, I explore what ‘co-creation’ really means, and why so many teams get it wrong. And why it’s such an im…
