 In this episode,  Nia Thomas talks to Steve Barker, a Royal Air Force veteran with over 26 years of experience. Steve served in various postings around the world, including Cyprus, Germany, Gibraltar, and Italy. After the end of the Cold War, his tour in Germany came to an end, and he transitioned into a role as an adult instructor. Eventually, he was selected to become a basic recruiting instructor, where he realized that coaching and mentorship were more effective than screaming and shouting. This experience led him to discover his passion for coaching and training.

Steve shares his inspiring journey of self-discovery and transformation, from his military career to navigating the challenges of PTSD and finding purpose in mentoring and coaching. Together, they delve into the crucial role of self-awareness in effective leadership, the ripple effects of authentic leadership in personal and professional spheres, and the power of coaching in fostering personal growth.

Join us as we uncover the key elements of conscious leadership and the remarkable impact it has on individuals and organizations. This insightful episode promises to provide valuable insights for anyone seeking to enhance their leadership skills and create respectful and creative working relationships.
