Hello I’m Granger Forson
www.bizsmart-gloucestershire.co.uk or find me on LinkedIn.
This time on ScaleUp Radio I speak with Paul Holbrook, the owner of Diary Detox.
Diary Detox is a coaching business for Leaders based in Cirencester. Paul started the business 6 years ago, to bring his approach to helping managers to ‘Better Lead People’ to a wider audience.
In this episode we discuss everything Leadership & Management in detail.
We cover a lot of ground, including:
- You need to choose to be a Manager or Leader as it is such an important role
- The true role of manager is to make someone & something better
- Managers need to Think, Communicate & Improve
- Managers and Leaders need to create space in their diary for Green time
What is inspiring about this conversation with Paul is his approach to Leader development by starting with asking you to choose ‘is it time to lead’, then making space in your diary through the detox and focusing on the real essence of being a leader by leading with love. Yes Love, listen out for this amazing section in this conversation.
I know that you’ll get so much out of this episode.
