“II’ve always kind of had a little bit of sense of where I might want to step up and where I am best. Stepping back.

“Nobody wants to be a part of this force ritual or, you know, tell me what’s going great in your life or the forced humanity kind of thing.

Peter Baines OAM  –  Leadership Matters

Peter Baines OAM is the founder of Hands Across the Water, a global keynote speaker, board director and author of the book Leadership Matters. With a background that weaves through the corridors of Canberra Institute of Technology, where he studied forensic science, to the prestigious halls of the University of Sydney, where he delved into law, his insights into leadership are a fascinating fusion of disciplines.

From unraveling criminal mysteries to advising the likes of Interpol and the United Nations, his two-decade career as a forensic investigator has taken him to the epicenters of crisis in Indonesia, Japan, Thailand, and Saudi Arabia. But it was the call of compassion that shifted his trajectory. In the aftermath of Thailand’s hardships, he founded Hands Across the Water, a beacon of hope for children without homes or families.

Karen talks about:

  • How leadership matters in handling difficult situations
  • Characteristic leaders must have in the current world

“True leaders are identified by what they do and the decisions that they make.” Peter Baines OAM talks about the characteristics of a leader on the Inspiring Great Leaders Podcast.

“That’s the beauty of it and how interesting it is to know more about yourself, what you’re capable of, what you’re what you’re thinking, where you’re thinking comes from, how you shape ideas and thoughts, or how you’re limited in your understanding and knowledge on particular issues.” Learning about oneself by Peter Baines OAM on the Inspiring Great Leaders Podcast.

“I find that a lot of leaders do not like to engage with their people in a discussion about the change because they feel like their lack of answers will leave them exposed as not capable. It’s such a flawed paradigm because it’s really naive to think that any leader would have all the answers.” Curtis Bateman emphasises the mindset to lead change on the Inspiring Great Leaders Podcast.

“As a leader, I’m always looking to find ways to help not only me be successful, but to help people grow and become more successful, because I think that creates a multiplying effect.”  Curtis Bateman talks about what he wants as a leader on the Inspiring Great Leaders Podcast.

“So if you hit a stumbling block, a sandpit, if you hit a brick wall, whatever it is, you still have that to fall back on because the very most exciting change can hit obstacles. If we don’t have a vision, then it still hasn’t been exciting, it’s just stuck.” Creating a Vision for Change with Curtis Bateman on the Inspiring Great Leaders Podcast.
