Description

In this week’s episode leadership coach Jennifer McCanna and I are answering your questions about dealing with difficult relationships in the workplace.

We discuss…

  • How to stop harsh feedback from impacting your confidence
  • How to talk to your line manager when you’re struggling to work with a colleague
  • Your expectations of your line manager and what to do when they aren’t being met
  • Jen’s ‘What Next Wheel’ – a tool that helps you respond rather than react in tricky influencing situations

 

This is the Influence & Impact podcast for women leaders, helping you confidently navigate the ups and downs of leadership and feel less alone on your journey as a leader.

 

My name’s Carla Miller, I’ve been coaching leaders for the past 15 years and I’m your leadership bestie.  I’m here to remind you of the value to bring to your organisation, to help believe in yourself and to share practical tools and insights from myself and my brilliant guests that will help you succeed in your career.

  • How to Say No
  • Managing an Overwhelmed Team
  • How and When to Coach Your Team
