Jeannette talks to the fabulous Lisa Lutoff-Perlo, Vice Chairman, External Affairs for the Royal Caribbean Group and author of “Making Waves: A Woman’s Rise to the Top Using Smarts, Heart and Courage". Lisa joins the show to talk about her fascinating business background, how she conquered the world of business, and what's coming in her future.

Lisa talks about what makes a great leader, why women deserve a more prominent role in all aspects of life, and how the power of courage can transform your path through life. She also discusses her book, and talks about how it is built upon the transferrable lessons from her own life in business.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• People are drawn to leadership and magnetic power of those who steer the ships. True leaders are those we can lean on during the stormier times.
• Learning is not just about seeing the things we aspire to. It's about recognising what doesn't work, and calculating that into our life plan, too.
• Everyone has an ego, but the problems arise when we are led solely by it, instead of using it as an accelerating force.
• Many who enter business near the top don't arrive with the smarts and the skills that you can only gain by climbing the ladder progressively.

BEST MOMENTS

"I learned that a great leader is a great leader. And that's what people are looking for. Captains aren't looking for someone who was a captain to be their leader at the end of the day."

"I always find it serendipitous that I ended up in the cruise business, hospitality on the ocean. And it's like this. My life came full circle and it was through no plan."

"I was a woman who did it. And, you know, the subtitle of Making Waves is a woman's rise to the top using smart and courage."

"I've had to be very conscious of that. You know, when I was my first promotion was going from a salesperson to a regional sales manager, which meant that I went from an individual contributor."

ABOUT THE GUEST

Lisa Lutoff-Perlo is Vice Chairman, External Affairs for the Royal Caribbean Group, where she works on broad strategic initiatives with industry organizations and key external stakeholders. Prior to that, she served as President and CEO of Celebrity Cruises from 2014 to 2023, the first woman to take the helm of a Royal Caribbean Group brand and one of the few women then leading a multi-billion dollar brand.

Lutoff-Perlo is a recognized trailblazer in the global hospitality industry. She was the driving force behind transforming and re-defining today’s relaxed luxury cruise experience with a bold, innovative approach to ship design and service for both the industry and the Celebrity Cruises brand. Launching Celebrity’s Edge Series in 2018, the ships were immediately hailed as game-changing for the industry and recognized on TIME Magazine’s annual “World’s Greatest Places” list. She also led the Celebrity brand through a digital transformation, tapping into new market opportunities, customer trends, a robust digital marketing focus and increasing guest loyalty.

In the years leading up to the global pandemic, Lutoff-Perlo led Celebrity Cruises to historic financial performance. She then led the industry back into service on June 26, 2021, when Celebrity Edge was the first ship to sail from a U.S. port and went on to return the brand’s business performance to historical ranges in the first full year post-pandemic. In 2023, Celebrity Cruises’ ships were the first in the world to earn the coveted star rating from Forbes Travel Guide, further solidifying the brand’s relaxed luxury resorts at sea brand positioning.

A purpose-driven leader, Lutoff-Perlo also catalyzed cultural progress in the 200-year-old cruise industry by appointing the first American female Captain and the first West-African woman to work on the bridge of a cruise ship; making history with the first all-female bridge and leadership sailing in 2020; and, ultimately, increasing Celebrity’s percentage of women on the bridge to 32%, far exceeding the maritime industry average of 2%.

She has been recognized with numerous awards for business transformation, outstanding leadership, diversity and inclusion, and her numerous philanthropic efforts., and is a member of the Board of Directors of Fortune 500 company AutoNation (NYSE: AN) actively lending her expertise to numerous nonprofit boards.

Lutoff-Perlo shares her powerful career stories and lessons learned in her leadership book, “Making Waves: A Woman’s Rise to the Top Using Smarts, Heart and Courage,” available in February 2024.

"Recommendations is always the best, isn't it? And or if not try to find somebody localish to someone that you know you can pick up the phone and they can guide you."

"I'm enjoying it. I'm learning. you know, and taking it on board. But in 12 months time, or 12 to 18 months time, you know, I'm expecting to start to delegate a lot of these tasks out and kind of then just oversee."

"The best advice I received was, despite the challenges in the early days, you know, the advice I received was to go and set it up on your own. And that's exactly what I did."

Jeannette discusses the importance of effective communication during times of great change in organisations. Drawing from her 30 years of experience in business, she shares six key tips for navigating through change and ensuring clear and empathetic communication with teams.

She focusses on the need to explain the reasons behind the change, create space for individuals to process and ask questions, demonstrate through actions and words, encourage dialogue and provide answers, build engagement through accomplishments, and actively manage oneself as a leader

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Communication is crucial during times of change in an organisation.
• Explaining the reasons behind the change is important, both on a macro and micro level.
• Providing space for individuals to process the change and ask questions is essential.
• Leaders should be mindful of their behaviours and body language, as they are being closely observed during times of change.
• Encouraging dialogue and actively managing oneself as a leader are key to navigating through change successfully.

BEST MOMENTS

"Explain why. Why is the change happening, whether that's a reorganisation structure, whether it's a change in direction, whether it's an exit from a business, buying a new business, introducing a new product line, maybe closing certain offices within an organisation, whatever the change is."

"Encourage dialogue. Don't shy away from the tough conversations, the fierce conversations that you might need to have, but at the same time, make sure that it doesn't spiral into sort of, you know, a pool of negativity necessarily."

"Change is not always bad. Change is often very, very positive. And actually, when you get through the change, if you ever do, because you're always changing and growing, actually, you can find that coming out the other side, you know, people that are still part of that future”

Jeannette talks to Harry Hastings, the co-CEO and co-founder of Ocean Holidays. Harry shares his personal and professional journey, starting from his early days as a self-employed sales agent to the growth and challenges of building Ocean Holidays over the past 20 years.

He discusses the importance of perseverance, resilience, and learning from mistakes in business. Harry also opens up about his personal experience as a parent of a child with special needs and the impact it has had on his life and the company's commitment to accessibility in the travel industry

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Harry highlights the significance of having strong controls and processes in place, especially in the early stages of a business.
• Our upbringing and experiences shape our entrepreneurial mindset. We should use the lessons of the past to shape the outlook for our futures.
• There have been major setbacks in the travel industry, including thin margins and global shocks, which is why there’s a great need for resilience in navigating these challenges.
• The culture at Ocean Holidays is happy, fun, and high-performing, with a focus on personal relationships and high standards. This drives the company to greater heights constantly.

BEST MOMENTS

"I think that if we look at my childhood and we go up to when I was 18, 19 years old, both my parents were creatives. So they're both playwrights and they never had full-time jobs."

"You know your children better than anybody, any doctor, any expert, any specialist, anyone that gives you advice, you know them better than anybody else and have confidence and belief in what you know."

"Good judgment comes from experience and experience comes from bad judgment."

Jeannette shares four key steps that can completely transform one's life. Drawing inspiration from renowned life coach Tony Robbins, she focusses on the importance of identifying one's current emotional state and choosing to practice a new, empowering emotion.

Join Jeannette as she highlights the power of conditioning the mind through new routines and habits to create a positive shift in life, business, and relationships, encouraging you to reflect on your emotions, identify the antidote to negative emotions, and implement new behaviours to achieve your desired emotional state.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• The first step in transforming your life is to identify where you currently live emotionally. Take a moment to reflect on your emotions and determine if you are feeling angry, upset, fearful, joyful, or excited about the future.
• Once you have identified your current emotions, think about the opposite emotions that you would like to feel. For example, if you are feeling fearful, the antidote could be bravery or courage. Identify the emotions you want to replace the negative ones with.
• Although it may not be easy to switch from a negative emotion to a positive one, it is important to practice the new emotion. Train your brain to focus on the positive and consciously work towards feeling the desired emotion.
• Conditioning involves implementing new routines, habits, and behaviours that support the desired emotion. Identify the behaviours that lead to negative emotions and replace them with actions that promote positive emotions.

BEST MOMENTS

"I really believe when we learn something great, we should share."

"The brain is incredibly powerful. And how we train our brain, what we actually concentrate on, training our subconscious mind is often really half-hearted."

"Remember, there are no limits to your growth, only the limits that you place on yourself."

This is the perfect time to get focused on what YOU want to really achieve in your business, career, and life. It’s never too late to be BRAVE and BOLD and unlock your inner BRILLIANCE.
