#28 CHARLIE BARHAM - From superteam to standalone agent
In this episode of the Real Talent Podcast, I sit down with Charlie Barham from Nelson Alexander to talk about the transition from being part of a high-performing super team to stepping out and building a team of your own. We unpack what that shift actually looks like, from operating within an established structure and brand to suddenly being responsible for creating the culture, standards, systems and expectations yourself. Charlie shares what he learnt from working inside a successful team and which lessons he has carried with him into the next stage of his career. We also discuss the challenges that come with moving from being a high-performing individual to becoming a leader. Building your own team means learning how to bring people with you, delegate, develop others and create an environment where everyone can perform. Charlie talks about his approach to building something that reflects who he is, while still applying the habits and disciplines he developed working within a super team. It’s a great insight into the journey from being part of something successful to taking the responsibility of building something successful yourself.
