In Conversation with Gina London, CEO of Language of Leadership, Global Expert on Leadership Communications and Emmy-winning former CNN correspondent.
As part of our In Conversation with Leaders series, Gina London was recently interviewed on behalf of ICBE, by business journalist, Frank Dillon and shares her unique insights on Leading through these uncertain times.
She discusses the major challenges Leaders internationally are currently facing and how to continue to motivate and inspire the organisation.
"The North Star in terms of guiding leaders through the current global turbulence is their self-regulation of emotions .....how to manage their stress, how to still be an inspiring leader and show cohesion around their senior leaders in the midst of uncertainty and with a lot of pressure from shareholders".

She speaks about DEI programmes and how they can continue offering these effective programmes in the face of pressure to reduce or eliminate such initiatives.
She also speaks about leading across the different generations by cultivating a coaching style of leadership.
She describes What People are Looking to Hear from Leaders in these uncertain times.
"A lot of people want to know they are still valued......If there's a way for Leaders to reassure, even if they don't have all the information .... Organisations abhor a communication vacuum because they are going to fill it with their own rumour mill and their own concerns"
Gina London
Gina describes a different approach to leadership, where leaders can take a more humane approach. She confirms that those that lead with more connectivity, care and compassion will inspire and will give their organisations that competitive edge.
