  • Ep 181 – How to make hard decisions with Sarah Miller
    Feb 17 2025
    Many leaders struggle with making tough decisions and dealing with their aftermath. In this episode Sarah Miller, CEO at leading global ethics consultancy Principia, shares how ethics can provide a set of resources and tools to use within decision-making, guiding how we lead as individuals from our own place of values, but probably more critically, how we engage with others who bring their own sets of values. In our conversation we discuss… How to weigh different perspectives and ‘effectively deliberate’ The ‘transparency and fairness tests’ you can apply to decisions Creating safe spaces for difficult discussions after hard decisions The concept of the ‘moral remainder’ and how it will help you navigate hard decisions and their aftermath What we can learn from philosophy about leadership How having a ‘challenger role’ could make your leadership team’s decisions better My name’s Carla Miller, leadership coach, author and trainer. And this is the Influence & Impact podcast for women leaders, helping you confidently navigate the ups and downs of leadership and feel less alone on your journey as a leader.

Sarah approached work with a new mindset and embraced being an introvert at work. In her book ‘The Quiet Catalyst’ Sarah shares her insights, tools and strategies to thriving as an introvert at work.
