4.

With 25 expert facilitators across Australia, we empower leaders and teams in business, education, government, and sport to achieve extraordinary results at work and in life. At Leading Teams, we believe everyone deserves a work environment where they can be high performing.

2. We facilitate difficult conversations with courage and empathy, increasing the speed of decisions
3. We build and facilitate meaningful relationships through shared experiences and vulnerability

Professional athletes don’t just perform - they train, experiment, work on areas of improvement, focus on one small but important detail, over and over, so they are a little better the next time it counts.

At work, we mostly just keep performing - another meeting, another presentation, another client conversation, and somehow, we expect to get better simply because we keep doing them.

But there is a difference between getting more experienced at doing something the same way, and actually getting better.

The teams that sustain high performance over time train like athletes - deliberately, consistently, with honest feedback and genuine reflection built into the rhythm, not wedged in as an afterthought.

What does your team’s training actually look like?

From the bottom of the ladder to a three-peat.

Simon Fletcher reflects on a decade alongside Chris Fagan and the Brisbane Lions, and what it 𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘶𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 takes to build a culture that doesn’t just win once but keeps winning.

Last week, the Brisbane Lions lost by 53 points, last night night, they won by 53.

That is not a coincidence, that is culture.

A statement performance that answered every question raised by last week’s qualifying final loss, booking their place in *another* preliminary final (their 6th in 8 years).

Brisbane led from the first bounce – scoring five goals in the first seven minutes (an AFL finals record) and never looked back.

In the post-match, Chris Fagan described what happened in between.

“It was a pretty fierce week. There was a bit of loud talking… We know if we bring energy, effort, contest and pressure – we’re a hard team to beat.”

That is not a coach managing a group through a tough loss. That is a culture doing what strong cultures do – looking honestly at what went well, what didn’t, saying it out loud, and showing up differently in the next moment.

Simon Fletcher has worked alongside the Brisbane Lions since Chris Fagan took the reins in 2017. What we see in this team, week after week, finals campaign after finals campaign, is a group that does not define itself by a single result.

Because a culture built on high standards and the willingness to have genuine conversations does not crumble after one bad day.

They show up the next day, dusts themselves off, and goes again.

The three-peat is still alive. Go Lions! 🦁

Our team is back at The Commons this morning for the second day of our internal HPT session.

Every six weeks, our entire team from around the country reunite in-person, do the same work we ask of the teams we partner with.

Yesterday featured Jess Martin’s 3-items, as we have all new team members share at their first LTA Days, as well as some exciting Mechanics updates from Trevor Crook.

Today is about training & quality, refining the craft of our facilitators and investing in the people who do this work every day.

This is non-negotiable for us, and always worth the effort.

Every organisation has a story it tells about its culture, and a culture its people actually experience.

After 25 years working across corporate, government, education and sport, we know that data drives dialogue, not just cultural “vibes”.

That’s why we developed our Culture Review Survey – 10 minutes, 6 dimensions, and a 4-point scale with no neutral option, because polite ambivalence does not change a culture.

The in-depth diagnostic report, grounded in our High Performing Teams model, tells you not just what is high or low, but what it actually means – when trust is high but accountability is low, or when purpose is clear but leadership communication is not keeping pace.

Numbers on their own do not change a culture. Understanding what they mean does.

Not all leadership development happens in a boardroom.

Some happens 3,800 metres above sea level, on a mountain bike, through the remote Mustang Valley - Nepal’s legendary Forbidden Kingdom.

The Leading Teams Nepal Expedition is an 18-day journey with Experience Not Felt Possible, designed for leaders who want to be tested – physically, mentally, and relationally – alongside leaders from completely different organisations and backgrounds.

No agenda, no slides, no performance reviews – just 18 days of genuine challenge, genuine connection, and the kind of reflection that only happens when you are well outside your comfort zone.

Expressions of interest are still open.

If this has been sitting on your radar, now is the time to reach out to Justin Peckett & Tim Ferguson.

Eileen Gu calls it a Constructive Criticism Circle, we call it a genuine conversation.

On a recent episode of On Purpose with Jay Shetty, Eileen talks about creating a structured space where people who genuinely care about each other say the honest thing – not the comfortable thing.

“It is like the deepest act of service I could possibly imagine.”

Separate what you do from who you are, receive the feedback, use it, grow.

Different name. Same human truth. Worth a listen.
