The Human CEO Podcast

New Episode of The Human CEO is now live on Apple, YouTube and Audible. In this week's episode, I had the privilege of speaking with and learning from the incredible Angus Nelson • Leadership Consultant, an executive coach and leadership mentor who has worked with over 1,000 leaders across industries. “You are way more powerful than you think you are. The world is dying for people like you to wake up.” Angus shared his powerful story of redemption and transformation—from hitting rock bottom to becoming a trusted guide for leaders navigating challenges like imposter syndrome, uncertainty, and the pressure to succeed. In this episode: Why courage, not confidence, is what propels leaders forward. How imposter syndrome can serve as an invitation to rise to new heights. The importance of audacity in leadership—and life. Practical advice for managing information overload and building resilience. I really enjoyed this conversation and Angus's actionable insights, and honest reflections on what it takes to lead authentically in a complex world.

Change has been the only constant in business for the last 5 years, it seems. Gone are the days of cradle to the grave working and now the traditional 9-5 is giving way to alternative ways of working: the gig economy, revenue-sharing models, and a rise in partnerships and affiliates. Add to that increasing National Insurance costs, evolving workforce expectations, and a growing emphasis on flexibility, and it’s clear: the way we think about talent planning needs to change. Success in 2025 won’t just depend on filling roles. It will come from building a people ecosystem—one that goes beyond employees to include the partners, investors, and affiliates who will drive your business forward. A great recruiter’s superpower isn’t just finding talent—it’s in their network and their ability to connect the dots for mutual benefit. It’s time to rethink talent planning as people planning. But how? This week's 6T60 newsletter is now live. #newsletter #human #peopleandculture #6T60
