Like anything involving people, leadership can be a pretty subjective concept, which is why I always love exploring the more objective side of it, and who better to get some insights into that from than @Tom Collins, host of The Science of Leadership podcast and author of the upcoming book, The Four Stars of Leadership.

In our conversation today, we delve into that science, explore the intentions behind effective leadership, the importance of character, trust, and mentorship as well as Tom's Four Stars/4 C's of leadership. We discuss the commonalities in leadership across various fields, particularly the military and medical professions, and the crucial need for ethical leadership in modern organisations.

This chat also touches on the pitfalls of micromanagement, the significance of empowering team members, positive work culture, the significance of mentorship and the importance of human relationships.

Great chatting with you Tom, thanks again for being a generous guest and conversationalist!
