  • #113 Why a Chocolate Bar Can Be as Valuable as a Pay Rise: Leadership Expert Reveals What Your Team Truly Values
    2025/05/29

    In this powerful and practical podcast episode, international speaker and leadership expert Nigel Risner joins us for a no-nonsense, deeply insightful discussion about what really matters in business, leadership, and life. From the surprising importance of biscuits and barista-style coffee in the workplace, to the undeniable power of presence, praise, and human connection, this is one of the most engaging conversations you'll hear all year.


    Nigel breaks down the difference between leading people and managing things, offering real-world advice for business leaders, team managers, HR professionals, coaches, and anyone responsible for developing a positive and productive workplace culture. He shares why many leadership failures stem not from a lack of care, but from a fear of hearing what employees actually need—and why good tea, great biscuits, and authentic recognition often matter more than a pay rise.


    We explore how to give effective feedback using his concept of “feedforward,” how to create lasting team connection through small, consistent gestures, and why recognition must be immediate to be impactful. This episode dives deep into leadership philosophy, employee engagement, communication, emotional intelligence, and how to manage energy—not just time.


    Nigel also shares his personal stories, from the lessons he learned after stepping away from a finance company to his transformative realisations about being truly present with family. He opens up about forgiveness, resentment, and how carrying emotional baggage—whether in work or relationships—can sabotage success. You’ll discover the 9-minute rule he lives by, how to handle conflict constructively, and why walking side-by-side might be the most effective coaching method.


    This conversation is essential viewing for anyone who leads, influences, or inspires others—whether in a corporate setting, educational environment, or personal relationship. It’s filled with practical tools, compelling anecdotes, and mindset shifts that can change the way you show up at work, at home, and in life.


    If you're looking to improve team morale, build stronger leadership habits, boost communication skills, and create a culture of appreciation and psychological safety in your organisation, this is the podcast episode you cannot afford to miss.


    Topics covered include: leadership vs management, creating meaningful workplace culture, recognition strategies, employee wellbeing, effective coaching techniques, team communication, emotional resilience, ego and decision-making, personal accountability, and the importance of forgiveness in leadership.

    Don’t just manage your team—lead them. And maybe… bring biscuits.

  • High-Performance Leadership: Leading Scotland in Rugby and Taking on the Business World
    2025/04/10

    What does it really take to lead a nation on the rugby field? Former Scotland captain Bryan Redpath reveals the raw truth about leadership under pressure, how personal performance, tough decisions, and owning your mistakes shape the person in charge. From making game-defining calls to dealing with the weight of national expectation, he shares what it means to lead when the stakes couldn’t be higher.


    Redpath doesn’t stop at sport. He pulls back the curtain on leadership in business too. He compares the selfless, team-first mentality of rugby with the siloed mindset he’s seen in corporate life. With powerful stories involving icons like Sir Alex Ferguson and Kevin Sinfield, he makes a compelling case for vulnerability, mentorship, and real team bonds as the keys to lasting success.


    This is more than just a story about rugby. It is a masterclass in leadership, trust, and staying true to your values. Redpath’s advice is gold. Master what you’re great at, share what you know, and lead with heart. If you want to be a better leader in sport, business, or life, this conversation is unmissable.
