About Designed to Lead

The Centre for Army Leadership’s  “on the road”  podcast series “Designed to Lead” seeks to showcase how the British Army deliberately develops leaders at key stages of a Soldier’s and Officer’s careers. Each episode will focus on a different part of their leadership journey, bringing in practitioners responsible for designing, delivering, and shaping leadership development through both formal training and education. If you’re early in your career, thinking about what comes next, or just want to understand how you’re being (or will be) deliberately developed as a leader, this series is for you!

Centre for Army Leadership Roundtable 6

This episode is the sixth of several discussion episodes in which we look back on all the episodes of the Human Advantage to provide clear examples of Army leaders putting the competencies and sub-skills of the Leader Competency Framework (LCF) into practice. We play back clips from previous episodes, talk about what they demonstrate from the LCF, and discuss how you can apply those lessons immediately to your own leadership. In this episode, Capt Ash Bhardwaj sits down with Maj Tom Bucknall (RMP) and Cpl Ben Hicks (R ANGLIAN), to discuss clips from Ep 23 (Sgt Ash Siddall, RAMS), Ep 24 (Col Jax Powell, RLC), Ep 26 (Maj Robin White, RIFLES), and Ep 27 (WO2 Johnson Beharry VC, PWRR). Through their examples, we demonstrate how the LCF can be used as a tool for leadership development, self-reflection, and assessment. And how it can be used as a guide for every interaction with your seniors and subordinates.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
