# 57 - Coaching Elite Business Teams for Results - James Kelly
from Profitable Farmer · host Farm Owners Academy
How important is your language as a farmer? And how important are your words in enrolling your family & team to achieve all you hope & dream of in your life? Have you ever really stopped to think about it? In this episode, I interview another great mate of mine, James Kelly. ‘JK’ is Managing Director of Alchimie – a global management consulting and leadership training organisation. Having worked in, coached and trained the pinnacle of leadership teams within some of the largest construction projects across Australia and oversees, he is more than qualified to speak about how each of us can better communicate as leaders. What JK shares with us is equally applicable within our farming teams, just as much as it is at the highest levels of commerce. In this interview, JK & I explore: how to align teams to a common goal, how to bring multiple families and businesses together, what tangible things we need to do in order to make our future a reality, and how to engage with our team deeply, and lead with conviction. Importantly, we explore how to change our language as leaders, in order to inspire better outcomes, and the importance of accountability (and being coached!) in delivering an effective business result. We also explore how the mind works, scientifically, and how we can train it to perform better under pressure and be more effective in truly connecting with our people. For me, this has been one of the most enlightening podcasts I have recorded to date. The fact that this is with my best mate is a true privilege. I hope you enjoy listening to this interview as much as I did creating it. Sincerely, Jeremy
