  • Solving an accountability issue by managing yourself out of a job!
    2025/06/07

    When performance dipped across his team, Adam Harris could've responded with pressure and micromanagement. Instead, he did something far more powerful - he took ownership.

    In this episode of Busting Roadblocks, Adam shares how a personal commitment to coaching and peer accountability sparked a complete rethink of how his business approached roles, responsibility, and trust. From getting his team to self-evaluate and interview for their posistions, to building a structure where each person owned a business-critical deliverable. Adam didn't just fix the problem, he transformed the culture.

    The Result?

    A fully engaged, high-performing team - and a leader who made himself redundant.

    If you're a founder, manager, or team lead facing accountability issues, this conversation is a must-listen/

  • Taking The Chaos Out Of Innovation
    2025/05/07

    What do you do when your innovation isn't hitting the mark?

    In this episode of Busting Roadblocks Janet takes you through an example of where she worked with a family owned business, added just enough process and realigned innovation with the consumer at the center.

    Sometimes your solution solves two problems. The insight into why a problem is occurring is often more important than looking to play the blame game. Using process to help elevate decisions beyond egos is a crucial skill, especially when dealing with multigenerational business ownership.

  • Finding Your Lane - Amy Smith
    2025/04/28

    In this episode of Busting Road Block our guest, Amy Smith, takes us through a situation where she found herself a young, under experienced, slightly naive female in a high performance environment holding her own with CEO's and Senior Executive from the African Private Equity world.

    Amy shows us how with the right attitude you can over come intimidating circumstances to find your lane and thrive.

    Busting Roadblocks is as much about your attitude to identify that you need to do something, as it is systematically identifying and breaking through. Amy is a great example of when we look back at our actions we can now connect the dots - a favourite quote Amy mentions from Steve Jobs.

    Amy is now a Business Coach, Speaker and LinkedIn Marketing Specialist. If you want to get in touch with Amy - try Amy Smith on LinkedIn linkedin.com/in/amylsmithcoach
