{Guest} The Reconnection Revolution: Overcoming the Loneliness Epidemic with Celeste Halliday
Manage episode 417528017 series 2804959
In this episode of the Made for More podcast, I had the pleasure of hosting Celeste Halliday, a renowned coach, keynote speaker, and facilitator with over 25 years of experience working with leaders and their teams. Celeste shared her journey from running away to London after a challenging personal experience to leading the UK's largest social healthcare provider. This pivotal moment ignited her passion for connection and transforming workplace culture.
We delved into the concept of the loneliness epidemic, as highlighted by Vivek Murthy, and discussed how modern work environments often lead to disconnection despite technological advancements. Celeste introduced her Connected Leader System, which emphasizes the importance of connecting with oneself, finding meaning and purpose, and fostering genuine connections with others.
Celeste's insights on the physical and emotional impacts of loneliness were eye-opening, and she provided practical advice on how leaders can create more connected and fulfilling workplaces. We also touched on the importance of authenticity, alignment, and attention in leadership, and how these elements contribute to a thriving organizational culture.
For those looking to deepen their understanding of leadership and connection, Celeste's work and upcoming book on the Reconnection Revolution offer valuable resources. You can find more about her Connected Leader System on her website and follow her on LinkedIn and Instagram for regular updates and practical leadership advice.
Thank you, Celeste, for sharing your expertise and inspiring us to create more connected and meaningful work environments.
