In Episode 46 of The Solo Coach Podcast, I'm joined by business psychologist, author and leadership expert Fiona Kearns for a fascinating conversation about what it really takes to build high-performing teams and workplaces where people can thrive.
We explore Fiona's journey from the commercial world into business psychology, why she believes listening is one of the most underrated leadership skills, and how self-awareness, values and communication shape the way we lead.
Along the way, we discuss:
• Why technical experts often struggle when they become managers
• The importance of listening before trying to solve problems
• Building psychologically healthy and high-performing workplaces
• Burnout, toxic cultures and helping people thrive at work
• What Toastmasters taught us about leadership and confidence
• Why it's okay to stop comparing yourself to everyone else and simply ”do you”
Whether you're leading a team, aspiring to become a better leader, or simply curious about people and psychology, this episode is packed with practical insights and thought-provoking conversation.
