Masterclass: Why you need to be purpose-led to get the best out of yourself

In the new episode, we hear John Blakey's teachings on how to be a purpose-driven leader who can get the best out of yourself and your team

What does being purpose-led actually mean? How do you make it a reality? And why do you need to be purpose-led to get the best out of yourself and others?

John Blakey is an executive coach for FTSE 100 chief executives, founders and top public sector officials. He has written a new book called Force for Good: How to Thrive as a Purpose-Driven Leader.

You will learn:

  • Why "performance = motivation x ability x opportunity"
  • How to boost your motivation by identifying your radiators and drains
  • How to be a force multiplier by thinking long-term, not short-term
  • Why you should set five-year goals and share them
  • How to ensure that reality doesn't get in the way of that five-year vision

In the new episode, we hear his teachings on how to be a purpose-driven leader who can get the best out of yourself and your team.
