As we approach the end of October, the pressure is mounting for many in this final quarter of the year. Early in my career as a manager, I often found myself fixated on business targets, losing sight of the human element within my team. I thought results were driven purely by strategy and numbers—until I had the privilege of working under Carolyn Park, who showed me how wrong I was. Carolyn helped me recognize the powerful link between empathy and impact. She guided me in regulating my emotions, showing me that understanding and connecting with my team was just as critical as meeting the numbers. This shift didn’t just change my perspective; it changed my results. Later, as I applied these lessons with my own team, I saw firsthand how focusing on people alongside business goals led to better outcomes across the board. In the latest episode of What’s Your Forecast?, I sat down with Ben Arendt , founder of Depth Charge Consulting, to discuss this very topic. Ben’s insights on the balance of emotional intelligence in leadership, and his perspective on where the future of management is headed, really hit home. If you haven’t yet listened to the episode, it’s available now—link in the comments. #Leadership #EmotionalIntelligence atlantiq AI

Great point by Joe Verdecampo about not getting lost in the numbers in Q4. Sales managers have one of the hardest leadership roles in an organization. There's a big gap between the skills needed to be a superstar seller and an effective manager. One of the biggest failure points I see for sales leaders is a focus on trying to make everyone on their teams into a copy of themselves. Good managers, in contrast, focus on helping their team members become better versions of themselves. Know what motivates your team can really be a boon during this time. Some sellers respond to pressure, others are already creating more than enough pressure for themselves and need other types of support! Check out Joe's podcast--What's Your Forecast?--for more of our conversation about topics like the above! #leadership #salesmanagement #sales #management #Q4

In this second clip from my recent FIR Podcast Network interview, Neville Hobson and Shel Holtz, SCMP asked me how business leaders can be persuaded of the value of 'applied science fiction'. There will always be skepticism, despite the many examples of high-profile people who acknowledge SF as an inspiration. The point is to harness that doubt, so you can make an even better case for building imaginative capability across your organisation.
