Just Great People
Barry Eustance talks to ordinary people who've done extraordinary things that will engage and inspire you.
Entrepreneurs, business leaders, musicians, thought leaders, actors, developers, pilots, - anyone who's gone out and "done it".
Why they've done it, how they've done it, and how you can do it too.
Sometimes instructional, sometimes emotional, always fascinating, and endlessly inspiring.

Leadership Studio - Empowering Change: Leadership Lessons from Military to Management
In this episode of the Just Great People podcast, Barry Eustance speaks with Adrian Stratta - interim leader and manager, leadership specialist, and former military parachutist - about what it takes to lead through complex change.
Adrian’s journey from military operations to organisational leadership offers a sharp perspective on why empowerment, clear communication and cultural engagement are essential for driving successful change and transformation.
He shares how interim leaders can bring objectivity to situations where internal politics slow progress, and why a balance of vision and empathy is necessary to solve so-called ‘wicked problems’ within businesses.
Key topics discussed:
• Leadership beyond hierarchy: building empowered teams
• Change management strategies that actually work
• Why employee engagement is more than a box-ticking exercise
• The role of interim leaders in asking difficult but necessary questions
• How to create a ‘safe-to-fail’ environment that fosters learning
• Leadership as an ongoing practice of listening and adapting
For leaders, consultants and managers who want to:
• Deliver business transformation that lasts
• Develop inclusive and objective leadership skills
• Strengthen organisational culture during periods of change
• Engage employees at every level in decision-making
• Build resilience and adaptability into their leadership style
