Introspection, Healing And Being Present With Nicholas Janni
b'
In this special episode, John talks to Teacher, Coach and Author, Nicholas Janni.
\\nNicholas has a fascinating background. His father was a world-famous film producer, and his mother was one of the first women to gain a scholarship to Oxford University. An impressive family indeed but Nicholas certainly worked extremely hard to get to where he is today.
\\nWith early influence from his father, Nicholas began his first career in the theatre and worked as a Theatre Director for 20 years. He later left the theatre, creating a consultancy which grew and grew and continues to work with Executives around the world today. Nicholas now teaches at two of the top business schools in the world, University of Oxford’s Saïd Business School and the IMD Business School in Switzerland. He has also taken a leap out on his own and has now written a fascinating book entitled ‘Leader as Healer’.
\\nNicholas’s book, ‘Leader as Healer’, argues that an urgent upgrade is needed in how managers must think and practice leadership. The type of leadership that Nicholas discusses in his book is necessary in a post-COVID world. During this episode, John and Nicholas talk about the importance of introspection, the existing toxicity in many current leaders and how we are moving forward with this with a new type of leadership. John even follows a live teaching practice from Nicholas!

KEY TAKEAWAYS
\\n- \\n
- It is important to be present in the moment with people. It can make the biggest difference. \\n
- If you are a leader and you are running a stressful meeting, are you confident enough to recognise this type of environment and are you comfortable enough to address it and relieve the tension and anxiety in the room? \\n

BEST MOMENTS
\\n“Most people have no idea what real listening means for instance, because real listening involves all of my faculties. Not just my thinking. Not just my speaking”.
\\n“In essence, I talk a lot about doing and being and we’re absolutely over-dominated by doing. We’ve lost a sense for the most part of being”.
\\n“When you’re in the presence of a leader who is really present, first of all you feel listened to. You feel received. That\'s priceless”.
\\n“If you’re not curious about people, don’t be a leader”.
