How Your Relationship with Time Shapes Your Leadership

In this short but powerful episode of The Leaders Kitbag, I’m sharing a concept that’s brand new to me – one that’s genuinely shifted how I think about time, productivity, and leadership. It originates from the world of NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) and explores the idea that people relate to time in fundamentally different ways – as either “in time” or “through time” thinkers. You’ll discover: What these two styles look like in everyday life. Why some people thrive on planning, and others feel suffocated by it. How understanding this can radically shift how you lead your team. This fresh insight isn’t about putting people in boxes. It’s about awareness – knowing that we all perceive and process time differently, and how that difference can be a hidden source of friction… or a powerful leadership advantage. For the First Time Ever: Join My Open Leadership Programme For the first time ever, I’m opening up one of my most practical and impactful leadership programmes to the public. Normally, I only deliver this training inside organisations, but due to repeated requests from smaller businesses and individual leaders, I’m creating a brand-new open cohort. Here’s what’s included: 4 x half-day interactive workshops 1-hour Learning Transfer Session Small group format (max 18 delegates) Indicative cost: £540–£600 (VAT included), with payment plans for self-funders This is a first-of-its-kind opportunity to access the same training I usually deliver privately to companies. I’ll only run it if I get 30+ expressions of interest. Register your interest here.
