The Evolution of Leadership – Personal Stories of the 10% Differentiator in Action part three


Listen to the recording of this week's '10% Differentiator' Insights below.

Join me this week as I explore two personal stories, offering a glimpse into the foundational elements that define impactful leadership.

In the ever-evolving landscape of professional growth, what truly sets successful leaders apart is not just the knowledge they amass, but how they integrate diverse learnings to cultivate a distinct leadership persona. This means, developing their 10% Differentiation. Many embark on this journey with specific role models in mind, attempting to mirror their practices.

While many start by emulating role models, true success emerges from integrating these inspirations. As we delve into one leader's journey, we discover the profound impact of mentorship, and the transformative power of soft skills.

Join me this week as I explore two of these revelations, offering a glimpse into the foundational elements that define impactful leadership.

Here is what they say:

"Coaching sessions have been pivotal in my personal and professional growth. Previously, many work environments didn't allow time to focus on individual emotional and functional needs. Through coaching, I've improved in communication, managing emotions, and fostering a realistic perspective.

Initially, I was set in my ways, often prioritising my responses over understanding diverse views. This narrow-mindedness has since changed, affecting not just my personal interactions but the business as a whole. The one-on-one nature of coaching gave me the comfort to discuss personal challenges, reshaping my understanding of my role from being mainly technical to equally valuing communication and personal development".

And:

"In navigating a large corporation, coaching has simplified complex challenges for me. I've learned to prioritise stakeholder needs, emphasising continuous growth in understanding and communication. Key advice included focusing on individuals, ensuring they feel valued, and ranking tasks by urgency, impact, and ease.

These new strategies have not only enhanced my work approach but also improved my synergy with the team. The clarity and focus I've gained from coaching have been instrumental in fostering both my personal well-being and professional growth".


Imagine someone with all the right skills and knowledge. What's that little extra they need to focus on? It's simple things: building relationships, listening to feedback, really getting to know others, and showing they care. These small actions make a big difference in being a great leader.


These observations inspired my research and became the driving force behind my new book.
