About the Episode
This week, our host, Kellie Lucas, talks with People expert, Luke O'Mahoney, from SapienX - culture enablement consultancy.
Unsurprisingly, this was an incredible discussion between two passionate advocates for People Success and people-first cultures. The takeaways below are a small sample of the full episode. Take a listen and let us know what your key takeaways are!
On his personal definition of leadership: to ensure I am a positive force and a positive energy for the people that I interact with.
On the topic of what makes a leader: leadership has to start with showing up for others; you can’t lead others without leading yourself first.
On the difference between management and leadership: empathy bridges the gap between management and leadership. Many managers just haven’t tapped into empathy yet…
All of which ultimately feeds into our own mantra of Their Success = Your Success : the power of unlocking potential in others, which then also unlocks potential in yourself because you thrive and elevate and develop as you're elevating others.

Episode Twenty-Four: The One with Molly Henson
About the Episode
On this episode of the podcast, our host, Kellie Lucas, talks with Molly Henson, Head of Customer Success at Edurio.
Topics discussed were the education sector, courage and bravery, the tangible and intangible components of leadership and the art of looking inwards in order to impact and elevate others outwardly.
The latter, of course, feeding into our own mantra of Their Success = Your Success : the power of unlocking potential in others, which then also unlocks potential in yourself because you thrive and elevate and develop as you're elevating others. A common theme on this podcast.
Take a listen and let us know your thoughts!
About Molly
I am now the Head of Customer Success for Edurio, a stakeholder survey and strategic feedback tool within the education sector that aims to help improve the quality of education provision provided. Formally Head of Success and Head of Support at The Key Support Services and CRB Cunninghams respectively, I am hoping to bring knowledge of the education sector to the role and support Edurio in its next phases. Watch this space!
Insanely passionate about the education sector and the opportunities EdTech has to really influence and guide educators to give our next generations the very best starts in life, I am also a volunteer for the Royal Air Force Air Cadets. My career started in the charity sector, working to combat loneliness and isolation for veterans of our armed forces. It was at that point that I realised that I had a deep rooted inclination for socially conscious/responsible businesses that deliver great things to society.
I absolutely love building teams that learn from and guide each other, and aligning customer experiences with employee experiences. My career to date has been very much focused on these things and I think there is a world of untapped opportunity for us all to build working environments with people at the genuine core of what we do, and I simply hope to be able to support that belief everywhere I go.
Interesting fact that makes people frown/laugh – my future career choice is to be a funeral director… because I believe there would be no greater honour than the opportunity to make the worst time in someone’s life feel effortless and even maybe pleasant in some ways.
