Podcast Episode: Leading Through Instability; a Conversation on Change, Courage and Staying Connected

When the world feels unstable, what does real leadership look like? In this episode, I sit down with Mohammad, for a conversation that almost didn’t happen.

Our original recording date was postponed due to rising tension and instability in Mohammad’s region. And yet, he persevered. Calm. Curious. Engaged. Committed to dialogue.

That alone says something about leadership.

This conversation explores what it means to lead and stay connected, when circumstances are unpredictable, when narratives are polarised, and when uncertainty isn’t theoretical but lived.

We talk about:

• Navigating change when the external environment is volatile

• Bridging cultural and geographic divides through dialogue

• Leading without becoming reactive

• Staying human in high-pressure systems

• Why endurance, not adrenaline, defines sustainable leadership

This isn’t a “10 tips” episode. It’s a real conversation about the tension leaders carry when leading change and how maturity shows up when conditions are far from ideal.

If you’re leading through stacked change, geopolitical complexity, or organisational instability, this episode will land.
