Avionica’s Post

As an Air Force pilot, if the flight lead’s radio is not on the same frequency as the rest of the flight’s aircraft, mission success is in serious jeopardy. Communication is key to formation flying as well as business success.   Looking for a speaker at your next event: Full Throttle Leadership – Powering Teams for Peak Performance   https://lnkd.in/gW_bZibV   #fullthrottleleadership #peakperformance #positiveleadership #leadershiptraining #leadershipdevelopment #executivetraining #motivationalspeaker #LeadershipLessons #Teamwork

To be a successful leader it takes some special character.   But it isn’t what you might think it is.   You don’t need to be the strongest, toughest or smartest!  Not even your teammates need to be part of that category. This is what you can learn from the Navy SEALs (US special operations force). They are considered one of the highest performing organisations on the planet.  Their members all possess something much deeper.    Service.  Also when emotionally & physical exhausted they find some energy to help the person next to them. 👍 Service is what defines the highest performing teams in the world. 👍 Endeavours based on shared values towards a common vision. 👍 Determinations with the aim to be part of something bigger than yourself. Have you found your source of excellence? Your team that supports you? And that you are inspired by to serve? Share your experience in the comments! #leadershipdevelopment #strongandkindleaders #positiveleadership #growthmindset #inspiration https://lnkd.in/dWuAF8eD

Leading through a crisis, any crisis – man-made or a natural disaster, requires decisions to be made in a world of imperfect knowledge and uncertainty. It demands the strengths we saw in Sir Ernest Shackleton’s thwarted but ultimately heroic Endurance expedition of 1914 to 1916– the ability to try something, fail and immediately try something else. That’s the leadership challenge for all of us - a relentless focus on moving forward and parking what has gone before. #MPmotivation #LeadershipQuotes #MotivationalQuotes

Trust isnt just a feel-good factor; it’s a strategic asset. For the Navy Seals, it’s the bedrock of their operations, essential for effective teamwork under extreme conditions. For businesses, it’s equally vital, supporting sustainable growth, innovation, and team resilience. During the holidays, I often find myself diving into new books and drawing inspiration from various speeches. It’s a time for learning and reflection. What about you? What’s your favorite inspirational speech that has influenced your professional life? #leadership #simonsinek #culture

In the face of adversity, the true strength of our team shines through. Recent events in New Caledonia have brought unimaginable destruction and fear, but they have also revealed the best in all of us. We've witnessed extraordinary acts of solidarity and unwavering resilience. Despite these challenges, our teams have not only maintained our vital operations but have done so with inspiring unity and purpose. Their dedication has made survival a seamless endeavor, ensuring continuity even in the toughest times. Let's take a moment to acknowledge the incredible spirit and tenacity of everyone. Together, we are stronger and more capable of overcoming any obstacle that comes our way. #Resilience #Solidarity #TeamStrength #Leadership #CompanySuccess

In the vast ocean of leadership, Values are the stars that guide us, The compass that never lies. 𝗘𝘅𝗰𝗲𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽 isn't just about wielding authority; it's about embodying a set of core values that serve as a moral compass, guiding teams through even the most turbulent waters. Recently, after conducting my last change of command ceremony, an officer I had mentored gifted me a sextant – an navigational tool first used in the days of sail, that relies on fixed celestial objects to chart a course. The accompanying note perfectly encapsulated the essence of leadership I had strived to embody. Under my leadership, this officer found clarity amidst chaos, a steady hand to follow when confronted with "unknown territory." Effective leadership isn't about having all the answers; it's about 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗻 𝗲𝗻𝘃𝗶𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗺 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹𝘀 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗲𝗱, 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗱, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗲𝗺𝗽𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱 to navigate challenges collaboratively. It's about being the fixed point they can rely on, 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝗹𝗹𝘂𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗮𝘁𝗵 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱. As I transition into this new chapter, I carry the lessons learned from my naval career, determined to continue charting a 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀𝗲 𝗴𝘂𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗱 𝗯𝘆 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆, 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮𝗻 𝘂𝗻𝘄𝗮𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗱𝗲𝘃𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗼 𝗲𝘅𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲. Please share your experiences of leaders who have been beacons of inspiration, guiding you through turbulent times. How did their steadfast values shape your journey? #LeadershipDevelopment #OperationalExcellence #TeamBuilding #LeadershipThatMatters #SteadyHandAtTheHelm

My immense appreciation for the review of The Call To Leadership by Sir Iain Gray - an immensely admired Cranfield University colleague in global aviation. To be blessed to be a Visiting Professor at Cranfield is to have a front seat on aviation's position on the front line of global growth and development. Through clear, confident, committed and compassionate post-crisis leadership, re-engineering of a stronger global economy and community is possible as a powerful post-crisis legacy. x
