Welcome to Extra-Ordinary Leaders with Dolly Waddell.

Experienced business coach, mother, and Founder of The People Performance Consultancy, Dolly Waddell is on a mission to revitalise leadership and help everyone add a little something extra to their ordinary.

In this episode, Dolly is joined by Chris Atkinson, international speaker, trainer, and author.

They're taking it back to the bare bones of leadership: what does it take to be an extra-ordinary leader without all the shiny razzmatazz? Is it true that leadership has changed significantly in the last decade, or is the essence of great leadership unchanged for thousands of years? And could it be that the more we know about the field we're in, the harder it is to truly lead others?

Welcome to Extra-Ordinary Leaders with Dolly Waddell.

Experienced business coach, mother, and Founder of The People Performance Consultancy, Dolly Waddell is on a mission to revitalise leadership and help everyone add a little something extra to their ordinary.

In this episode, Dolly is joined by Russell Boulter, actor, documentary narrator, communication coach and founding partner of GSB Comms.

Join Dolly and Russell as they discuss what Russell's acting career taught him about leadership, the scandal of authority, and why a racehorse and the word 'meek' makes a good metaphor for extra-ordinary leadership.

They explore key questions such as: we all know it's important to delegate, but how do we overcome the all-too-common feeling that it'd just be easier if we did it ourselves? And how can we ensure we don't fall into the intention gap between the leaders we want to be and the leaders we are?

In this episode, Dolly is joined by David Heron, founding partner and CEO of Wilton & Bain, who this year were listed by The Sunday Times as one of the best places to work. 

Join Dolly and David as they discuss what boarding school taught David about leadership; the importance of investing in systems, processes, and people; and a practical approach to achieving our goals. 

How can we make more time as business leaders? Is it an excuse when people say they don’t have time, or a result of poor prioritisation? And how can we ensure that our understanding of what it means to be efficient and effective is considerate from a D&I perspective?

In this episode, Dolly is joined by Stevie Ward, elite performance expert, keynote speaker, ex rugby league captain and founder of Mantality, through which he helps men to live with purpose, peace of mind, and resilience.

How do we remain extra-ordinary in the face of adversity? How can we strip away the exterior and find our inner state of purpose, peace of mind, and resilience?

Welcome to Season 3 of The Extra-Ordinary Leader.

Experienced business consultant, speaker, and founder of The People Performance Consultancy, Dolly Waddell, is on a mission to revitalise leadership and help you find the extra in your extra-Ordinary.

To kick off the new season, Dolly is joined by Russell Harvey, the Resilience Coach. What does it mean to be a resilient leader? What exactly is resilience in business? 

Harvey shares his tips on delegating effectively, and how to have quality conversations to improve performance. Leaders should focus on three responsibilities, listen to the episode to hear what traits Russell values the most. 

Embrace your unique qualities as a leader to make a positive impact, and unlock the extra in your extra-Ordinary. 

Welcome to a brand-new season!

Bringing together coaches, consultants and some extra-Ordinary leaders (a gardener and a fisherman no less), season 3 will bring you extra tactics that you can add to your Ordinary.
