Natasha Wallace joins Alastair to unpack conscious leadership. This is a science-backed approach to building high-trust, high-performance cultures without burning people out.
Drawing on her own experience of severe burnout, Natasha explains how values conflict, not just workload, drives disengagement. She also discusses why Gen Z’s refusal to accept “work at all costs” cultures may be a rational response rather than entitlement.
Highlights
- Burnout as values conflict, not just overwork
- Why Gen Z has watched older generations collapse and learned from it
- Inclusion as behaviour rather than branding
- Conscious pauses as leadership tools
Natasha Wallace Takeaways:
- Self-awareness is the foundation of good leadership
- Replace judgement with curiosity
- Feeling seen drives retention more than perks
- Compassion and accountability are not opposites
