  #38 The 3 Things That Keep Your Best People

  Sep 30, 202633 min

  Nobody joins a team to go backwards. Pay isn't what keeps your best people. Three things are, and most owners are only doing one of them well. In this week's episode we break down what a safe team actually is, why carrying the weight for your people is quietly costing you them, and why progression isn't the same as promotion. Plus the three types of people in every business at any given time, and the call one of them will force you to make. If your team keeps turning over and you've already tried paying more, the problem sits further upstream than the payroll. Your team isn't underperforming. It's under-prepared. #Leadership #TeamCulture #BusinessOwners Run your own leadership, team and culture audit. see what's really going on underneath your team, on your own screen, in response to your own answers. https://www.1000feetdeep.com.au/audit

  #37 Dan & Nat Urquhart | The Real Reason High Performers Quit

  Sep 23, 202629 min

  Generosity without responsibility and accountability ends in entitlement. Most owners don't set out to create entitled people. They set out to be a good employer. The Wednesday lunch. The Friday beers. The bonus at Christmas. Stepping in every time the pressure comes on. None of it is wrong. It's just not the whole job. Then you go to hold someone accountable and it comes back at you. "I thought this was a good place to work." Now you're the one explaining yourself in your own business. This one gets into why the rescue hire never comes, where your team actually learned entitlement, the difference between agreement and unity, and who sets the culture in your business if you don't. High performers only stay in high performing teams. Take the standard away and no amount of generosity holds them.

  #35 Dan & Nat Urquhart | The Identity Shift Behind "Getting Off The Tools"

  Sep 8, 202653 min

  "I stepped into a leadership position with a worker's mentality." Dan spent five years leading a building company like a carpenter. Solving every problem. Putting out every fire. Phone ringing 150 times a day. It wasn't a team problem. It was a leadership problem. This episode is about identity: who you believe you are, and how that belief shapes every decision you make. Dan and Nat cover the three shifts that gave themselves a personal identity they could lead from, and the three things every business needs before it has an identity of its own. Ask yourself one question: what is it that I do that only I can do? While you're busy doing everything anyone on your team could do, you never get to the thing only you can do. #ConstructionLeadership #BusinessOwners #LeadershipIdentity #BuildingBusiness #TeamCulture #1000FeetDeep Run your own leadership, team and culture audit. see what's really going on underneath your team, on your own screen, in response to your own answers. https://www.1000feetdeep.com.au/audit

  #32 Dan & Nat Urquhart | What Gets In The Way Of Potential?

  Aug 18, 202643 min

  Fear is a potential killer. Not the market, not the competition, not the economy. In this episode Dan sits down with Nat to talk about the one thing that quietly caps what you and your business are capable of. Not the obstacles you can see. The ones running underneath. Dan tells on himself: an opportunity that had everything he needed, and he pulled out too early because he was afraid. And the phone that rang 150 times a day and the line he'd say to himself before he answered it. What we get into: How fear quietly convinces you the thing won't work Why life never rolls out the red carpet, and why that's good news The best is yet to come, even after your hardest season If you've ever felt like you should be further along than you are? This is the conversation about seeing the thing that gets in the way, so you can stop letting it drive. #potential #leadership #highperformanceculture Run your own leadership, team and culture audit. see what's really going on underneath your team, on your own screen, in response to your own answers. https://www.1000feetdeep.com.au/audit
