“That requires you as a leader to know your humans. And so I think that that’s the skill that people need. Have real empathy, real care, real wanting to get to know them, ignoring the kids’ noise, knowing the partner’s name, know how old they are, know what their hobbies are, know why they get up every day and come to work.” Jade Green discusses building personal relationships with your people on the Inspiring Great Leaders Podcast. 

“That’s what really drives me. It’s like, I’m not going to just coach you on making 100 cold calls today. What else is going to help you as a human being? And I think that’s always just given me that zest to constantly push and constantly grow.” Learning in leadership with Jade Green on the Inspiring Great Leaders Podcast. 

“Your people are giving you the most precious resource they have in their entire life that they can never get back their time. And in most corporates, in most roles, we give more hours to the job than we do anything else combined. So how about how about just a little bit of attitude of gratitude for the fact that they show up and a little bit of ownership over if they’re not giving you what you expect and they are not performing how you want them to perform, where are you at?” Jade Green talks about gratitude being a two-way street on the Inspiring Great Leaders Podcast.

Creating A Brain Shift

On this episode of the Inspiring Great Leaders Podcast, Craig Johns speaks with Adele Spraggon about creating a brain shift, the 4 steps to personal empowerment and human behaviour.

We also dive deeper into the existing patterns in our brain, neuroscience, and uncovering what makes people unhappy.

Adele Spraggon – Creating A Brain Shift

Adele Spraggon is the author of the award-winning book Shift: 4 Steps to Personal Empowerment, an international trainer, and a fearless speaker. Her fascination with neuroscience and human behavior has led her to uncover what makes us unhappy and to offer practical solutions for personal empowerment.

With a Master’s degree in Humanities/Humanistic Studies from York University, Adele has been recognised for her outstanding contributions in the field of customer experience, behavioral expertise, and personal empowerment. She was awarded the 2020 Woman of Inspiration: Customer Experience Award and the 2021 Top Behavioural Expert of the Year by the International Association of Top Professionals and was recently featured on the cover of the Top Industry Professionals magazine.

Adele talks about:

  • How her childhood affected her perspective of human behaviour
  • Living in affluence in contrast to living in poverty
  • The human behavior that causes the dynamic between the rich and the poor
  • Fear of the unknown
  • Surviving by knowing
  • Creating a brain shift
  • Helping people take charge and make decisions
  • Fascination with human behaviour and being a behavioural change expert
  • Having a purpose in life
  • Shift: 4 Steps to Personal Empowerment
  • The brain pattern
  • Rewiring the brain and shifting behaviours
  • Lifetime technique of pattern shifting

“There’s one thing that every human being on this planet fears, and it’s one shared fear amongst all of us, and that is the unknown. So that’s why we get trapped in situations where we know we’re not happy, but we don’t know how to get out of that, because to get out of that, we have to make a leap of faith.” Adele Spraggon talks about fear of the unknown on the Inspiring Great Leaders Podcast. 

“I think though coaching is one of those things that if you love doing it, it really becomes a huge purpose in life because it’s so meaningful to be able to support somebody out of those places where they think I’m trapped and I can never get out.” Finding meaning through coaching with Adele Spraggon on the Inspiring Great Leaders Podcast. 

“Our human brain is such that it creates patterns or neural pathways. And so every time that a child learns something, the brain stores that away in the form of a pattern so that it can repeat that behaviour in the future. So we tend to rely on actions that we’ve already done in the past. And once our brain has a pattern, it tends to take that action over and over again, which is why somebody can make the same mistake repeatedly knowing it’s a mistake but not being able to change it.” The neural pathways of the human brain with Adele Spraggon on the Inspiring Great Leaders Podcast.

“If we are spending 98% of our time in the corporate world, as you say, just performing, we are missing a huge opportunity to actually be learning all the lessons we are learning on a day-by-day basis that we we’re not entrenching because we’re letting them slip through our mental fingers.” Anneli Blundell on performance in a corporate world on the Inspiring Great Leaders Podcast. 

“Women needed help, not because they were broken or less than, but because they were trying to operate within a system that didn’t know how to value them and didn’t know how to leverage the skills.” Gender stereotypes and equality with Anneli Blundell on the Inspiring Great Leaders Podcast.
