Ghost Lights with Tracey Camilleri and Sam Rockey

Auteur(s): Tracey Camilleri and Sam Rockey | Solid Gold Podcasts #BeHeard
  • Résumé

  • Leading Human Shaped Organisations

    Exploring how leaders can build ‘human-shaped organisations’ by learning from the humanities – that repository of all that is most human.

    Join Tracey, Sam and their guests as they reimagine ways of creating enabling corporate and institutional environments within which everyone - from the most senior to the youngest recruit - can learn and thrive. They consider leadership at an angle rather than head-on – looking through the lens of philosophy, literature, art, history, psychology for new insights, language and approaches.

    In each episode they will host a leading thinker or practitioner from the humanities, and reflect together on how their experience and wisdom can have relevance to those leading organisations through the pandemic.

  • The New Frontier for Great Organisations | Reima Shakeir
    Dec 5 2022
    In this short podcast, Reima Shakeir reflects on the current state of belonging and inclusion in business and academia. Reima sees a shared sense of belonging as the hallmark of advanced societies and communities - and the key to employee retention and happiness. As she says, "People want to be heard and to be seen - and that’s it." She reflects on systems that are still nonetheless designed for exclusion and on those that exclude due to institutional carelessness or lack of awareness on the part of the leadership.

    In this conversation, we explore what’s working, why and where there is pushback. What are some of the simple things that organisations are doing that make a difference? Reima reflects on the fear of getting things wrong, especially when it comes to language and the need to gather hard data to support changes in the system.

    Finally, she sees real-world person-to-person connection as the new frontier for great organisations – and brands - where the creation of a sense of belonging makes perfect commercial sense as well.

    Reima Shakeir is a lecturer at Wharton School of Business and Stern School of Business. Dr. Shakeir teaches Organizational Communication and Business and Society courses at NYU’s Stern School of Business. She also teaches research methodologies as part of the CLO (Chief Learning Officer) executive doctorate program at the University of Pennsylvania.

  • Toxic Charisma | Jon Stokes

    The problem with charismatic leaders.

    What is charisma, how does it benefit leaders, and how can it be toxic?

    Why do people follow charismatic leaders, even when it might not be good for them?

    Why should leaders develop an inspirational leadership style rather than relying on charisma?

    Jon Stokes is interested in how charismatic leadership can be toxic and the effect that it has on followers. He explores how leaders can inspire growth rather than dependence. He is an a an Associate Fellow at Oxford University's Said Business School and a founder of Stokes Jolly, a leadership consulting and advisory firm.

  • The Dynamics of Power | Robert Rowland Smith
    May 6 2022
    In my conversation with philosopher Robert Rowland Smith, we explore the dimensions of power. If power is the ability to make things happen in accordance with our will, why do some people crave more power than others? What are the real drivers of power? What do the philosophers say about power? Is power part of the human condition? Is power always bad? When can power be a force for good? This conversation takes us from current power struggles through to an unexpected conclusion all the while acknowledging that power is a movable and dynamic force. Connect with Robert · Connect with Sam · Connect with Tracey · Thompson Harrison - Helping Leaders Do What Matters Most · For more on Robert and his work · For more on the work of Prof Paul Gilbert mentioned in the podcast. · For an understanding of the power dynamics playing out in your organisation
