Want to enhance your leadership skills and embrace change with confidence?

In this episode, Denis brings back Adam Strong to share his own experiences with tough decisions and how it is essential to consider your vision, purpose, and legacy when making them. Roy Osing also joins the conversation to discuss the importance of being different in a competitive world and stresses the importance of execution over planning in any successful organization.

Tune in for actionable tips on embracing change as a leader!

In this episode:

• Adam’s background as an Elite Athlete and how it led to his journey into world-class leadership
• The tough questions anyone in a “decision-making process” should be asking themselves
• How Roy’s experience as a system analyst in a changing working world informed his leadership style of being different
• The importance of changing our approach away from following textbook guidance and focusing on execution - and how his book, Be Different or Be Dead, helps leaders move in that direction

Main takeaways:

• Go back to basics by getting clear about your vision and purpose 
• Putting processes and systems in place leads to success 
• Leaders need to evolve based on the needs of people 
• We need to get back into “dialogue” and learn from each other
• Textbooks can not inform you of the execution 
• If it doesn’t drive topline revenue, then don’t do it

Quotes:

"You have to go back to basics and ask yourself, What is the vision for your life? What is your purpose in life? What is your why? What is your vision? If it fits in with alignment to what you want from your life, then go with the flow." - Adam Strong 

“People are guided more by textbook readings than by what works… The textbook may give you the plan, but it will not inform you on execution.” - Roy Osing
