The NRMA’s 2021 Courteous Driving Survey found that 71% of drivers had experienced road rage over the previous year. In times of pressure, we tend to let emotions get the better of us. The same can be said for leadership.

In this conversation with Rob Cameron on The Pulse 94.7FM, Anton and Rob unpack how leaders can be more aware of the pressure that their teams are under, and how they can lead in a way that doesn’t amplify that pressure. In a way that reduces it, and puts team members first.

According to a recent study entitled ‘Beyond Lip Service: tracking the impact of the gender diversity gap’, gender-diverse senior leadership teams generate significantly higher profit margins – a whopping 30% higher!

In this conversation with Rob Cameron on The Pulse 94.7FM, Anton and Rob unpack the power of gratitude. And how important gratitude is for a happy life, and a resilient life.

In this interview with Rob Cameron on The Pulse 94.7FM, we initially set out to talk about workplace hazards other than the usual slips, trips and falls, but in light of the recent floods across QLD and Northern NSW, our chat quickly changed to focus on how people in these areas are working through incredibly difficult times. And how self preservation kicks in when things go BOOM!

Anton and Robert chat about what it means to create conscious control, and emotional control. And how that shows up in the care leaders have for their teams and team members. As an added bonus, Anton unpacks the ‘contagiousness of our emotional state’

The pandemic has changed the way that employees think and the way that they are perceived, which raises the question, are employees expecting more from their leaders?

In this interview Anton Guinea talks with Stephen Cenatiempo, from 2CC Breakfast, about how it is now critical to change workplace cultures and how leaders can meet their employees expectations.

Leaders are busy. They’re burnt out. They need self-care as much as we all do. But they put it off, they don’t believe it, or they undervalue how much it will help them. What leaders (and Type A personalities in general) believe is that leading and life is somewhat of a competition…

The pandemic has highlighted that poor leadership stems from the top of organisations and the great resignation has shown that employees are no longer accepting of that type of leadership.

In Victoria Workplace Safety, one quarter of all workplace fatalities occur between November – December. Workplace injuries are magnified in the lead up to Christmas, as pressure is placed on companies and workers to get work done quickly.

Anton was invited back to the Front Page to explain how individuals can stay in control and lead under pressure, even in the most stressful of situations.

According to WorkSafe statistics, more workers die in the weeks leading up to Christmas than at any other time of year. Safety leadership expert Anton Guinea offers some tips on keeping workers safe this Christmas.

The current Tasmanian mining workforce is an overwhelmingly male dominated landscape, with only 10% of women represented in the industry.

A lack of empowerment among workers is one of the biggest challenges for organisations looking to improve safety mindfulness.
