Transcript
Carrie-Ann Wade:

I've turned into Moira from Schitts Creek,

Carrie-Ann Wade:

what's happened?

Lee Griffith:

You're listening to How To Take The Lead with Lee

Lee Griffith:

Griffith

Carrie-Ann Wade:

and Carrie-Ann Wade.

Lee Griffith:

Two corporate colleagues, turned business

Lee Griffith:

besties who question everything we've ever learned about

Lee Griffith:

leadership.

Carrie-Ann Wade:

What started with us putting the world to

Carrie-Ann Wade:

rights over a gin after work is now a weekly show, challenging

Carrie-Ann Wade:

the myths and perceptions and exploring what leadership looks

Carrie-Ann Wade:

like in the modern day.

Lee Griffith:

We'll also be sharing our experiences and

Lee Griffith:

stories along the way.

Carrie-Ann Wade:

You can find our show notes at

Carrie-Ann Wade:

howtotakethelead.com

Lee Griffith:

Hit subscribe to receive new episodes every

Lee Griffith:

Thursday.

Carrie-Ann Wade:

Plus, we'd love for you to write or leave a

Carrie-Ann Wade:

review of the show.

Lee Griffith:

And please share your thoughts and stories on the

Lee Griffith:

topics we cover using the hashtag how to take the lead.

Carrie-Ann Wade:

Bonus drop alert! I know the next episode

Carrie-Ann Wade:

isn't supposed to drop until next week, but we wanted to give

Carrie-Ann Wade:

you a little bonus to keep you on your toes.

Lee Griffith:

So we've had a few people asking us how you can

Lee Griffith:

help and support the podcast, so we thought we'd share a few ways

Lee Griffith:

that would make a big difference.

Carrie-Ann Wade:

Firstly, subscribe and follow the show,

Carrie-Ann Wade:

if you're not already doing so. It means you don't have to worry

Carrie-Ann Wade:

every time a new episode drops, it will appear straight on your

Carrie-Ann Wade:

podcast listening app or device of choice. And it avoids that

Carrie-Ann Wade:

last minute rush to find something to listen to on your

Carrie-Ann Wade:

daily commute, or, if you're still working from home that

Carrie-Ann Wade:

walk around the block.

Lee Griffith:

Secondly, if you're loving the show leaving a

Lee Griffith:

review or a rating will help more people to find it. And it

Lee Griffith:

also strokes our egos just a little bit and lets us know that

Lee Griffith:

people are out there listening and we're not just stuck in a

Lee Griffith:

room talking to ourselves.

Carrie-Ann Wade:

As much as I love talking to you Lee, it is

Carrie-Ann Wade:

nice to know that other people might be listening.

Lee Griffith:

Absolutely. So thank you to everyone who's

Lee Griffith:

already done that.

Carrie-Ann Wade:

In at number three is to let us know your

Carrie-Ann Wade:

thoughts, opinions and stories on the things we cover or the

Carrie-Ann Wade:

things that you might want us to tackle in future episodes. Tag

Carrie-Ann Wade:

us on social media, DM us or drop us a good old-fashioned

Carrie-Ann Wade:

email. All our details are in the show notes or at

Carrie-Ann Wade:

howtotakethelead.com

Lee Griffith:

Number four is to help let people know about the

Lee Griffith:

podcast. So we want our conversations to spark

Lee Griffith:

discussion and change in the way people lead in organisations.

Lee Griffith:

And I certainly know having something like this available

Lee Griffith:

when I was moving up the career ladder would have made a huge

Lee Griffith:

difference, and let me know I wasn't alone in my thinking and

Lee Griffith:

I kind of want to be that person for someone else.

Carrie-Ann Wade:

Me too!

Lee Griffith:

So share the podcast with your colleagues, in

Lee Griffith:

your networks, through your social media. Send the link or

Lee Griffith:

if you see if someone asking a question that we've covered in

Lee Griffith:

one of our episodes, then direct them our way.

Carrie-Ann Wade:

And finally, some people have asked how they

Carrie-Ann Wade:

can work us. After all while we love the podcast, we do have our

Carrie-Ann Wade:

own businesses as well. If you're a communications

Carrie-Ann Wade:

professional who wants to work with me, you can visit

Carrie-Ann Wade:

cats-pajamas.co.uk to subscribe to my newsletter and you can

Carrie-Ann Wade:

even book your free 30 minute discovery call.

Carrie-Ann Wade:

We want to end with a massive thank you. We've

Lee Griffith:

And if you're interested in working with me,

Lee Griffith:

visit my website sundayskies.com/email to get

Lee Griffith:

regular insights and tips that will help you to be a more

Lee Griffith:

been absolutely overwhelmed by the support you've given us with

Lee Griffith:

impactful leader if you want first access to my services and offers.

Lee Griffith:

the podcast.

Unknown:

We'll be back with a full episode on Thursday but

Unknown:

before then keep your ears peeled. I don't actually know if

Unknown:

that's the saying?

Carrie-Ann Wade:

Let's make it one.

Lee Griffith:

Okay, keep your ears peeled for another bonus.

Carrie-Ann Wade:

Until then, get out there and take the lead!
