Making the LeaderSHIFT with Matt Dunsmoor

About this episode

Matt Dunsmoor discusses leadership development and creating thriving workplace cultures.

Matt Dunsmoor, co founder of Octopy, a leadership development business that helps organisations build more human focused leaders and workplace cultures where people actually thrive. Through workshops, keynotes, and long term leadership development programs, Matt supports leaders and teams to create workplaces that feed people rather than deplete them. Now, Matt’s journey through a team collapse and business relaunch, alongside co authoring the bestselling book The Five Embodiments, demonstrates the power of narrowing your message to maximise real impact. And while navigating what he calls a happily chaotic season of growth, speaking, and leadership work, he is championing healthier relationships at work and leaders people would actually choose to follow.
