Astronomer CEO on Coldplay Kisscam: A leadership lesson in trust, power & judgment.

Social media platforms have been full of schadenfreude (read: pleasure derived by someone from another person's misfortune), as the relationship between two company executives was inadvertently revealed for the world to see on the Jumbotron at a Coldplay concert.

We shouldn’t fall into the trap of making moral judgments. Everyone has to make their own choices about how they live their lives, and then accept the consequences - good, bad, or indifferent.

Karma is reliable, and it’s not for us to judge.

But this cautionary tale gives us plenty of leadership lessons to consider!

In this episode, I explore the themes of hubris, trust, power imbalances, and meritocracy, and give a prognosis for the future careers of the individuals involved.

You’re not responsible for everyone’s success. Here’s what you are responsible for.

As leaders, we often feel as though it’s our obligation to make sure that everyone on our team is happy, motivated, and succeeding.

As much as that would be nice, it is also incredibly unrealistic.

The notion that you can make everyone successful is somewhat ridiculous, given the myriad human conditions you’ll come across in the teams you lead.

What should your people reasonably expect from you, and what do they need to do to meet you half way?

If you want to go deeper into the reasons why you can’t rescue everyone, have a listen to Ep.65: How Do You Make Someone Change?.

How to handle pay reviews, bonuses, talent retention, and asking for a raise.

Last week, we released a bumper episode on remuneration — Ep.358: How to Pay People Properly. How do remuneration packages work? What’s involved in the different types of incentive payments? How is each pay component evaluated?

Having built the foundations, in this episode I take it to the next level by walking through 5 practical scenarios that you’re likely to face as a leader when you’re making decisions about people’s financial rewards.

Scenario 1: Handling annual salary reviews

Scenario 2: Using financial incentives to secure rare talent

Scenario 3: Using KPIs to determine short-term bonus payments

Scenario 4: Locking in a potential flight risk

Scenario 5: How to ask for a pay rise

Gaining a better understanding of these situations, and knowing how to handle them will massively increase your confidence for the conversations that inevitably follow!

🎁 We’ve created a completely free downloadable guide to go with this episode!

It walks you through the 5 most common pay scenarios leaders face, with practical tips for each one.
