Five Topics Leaders are Exploring Right Now...
BY ANDREW JONES
These are the conversations I’m having with leaders and their teams—the big ideas they want to tackle to drive change, spark innovation, and create cultures that thrive. These aren’t just trends; they’re the challenges shaping leadership today.
Do they resonate with you?
1.Your Systems Are Perfectly Designed for the Results They’re Delivering
If you’re not happy with the results, it’s worth asking: What are we unintentionally designing for? The outcomes we get are the direct result of the systems we’ve built, whether intentional or not. A small adjustment to your system can have an enormous impact. Remember: your results are no accident.
2. Customer-Centricity Changes Everything
Customer-centricity isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a complete cultural shift. When teams rally around real customer insights, everything becomes clearer: collaboration improves, innovation thrives, and purpose sharpens. It’s not about what customers say they want, it’s about what they need. So, where is your organisation on its customer journey?
3. Stop Being Busy for Busy’s Sake
Let’s be honest: busyness is often a badge of honour we don’t need. It’s not about doing more; it’s about doing what really matters. Shifting from a scarcity mindset about time to an abundance mindset frees us to focus on what actually moves the needle. Less hustle, more impact.
4. Constraints Are the Best Kind of Fuel
Instead of seeing constraints as barriers, think of them as opportunities. Constraints force us to think differently, collaborate smarter, and find innovative solutions. Formula One doesn’t thrive because it’s easy—it thrives because the limits are tough. The same is true for all of us.
5. Accountability Can’t Be Enforced—It’s a Choice
Real accountability happens when teams take ownership—not because they have to, but because they choose to. The real magic is when we stop chasing individual KPIs and instead focus on shared outcomes. What will your team choose to own this year?
