In this episode, Iâm pulling back the curtain on leadership and sharing three powerful lessons I learned from a surprising encounter with a high-profile guest who revealed their true character behind the scenes.
This experience challenged my perceptions of leadership and reinforced the importance of congruence, kindness, and responsibility in positions of power.
Hereâs what I cover:
Congruence is Key â Why the best leaders are consistent both on and off camera, and how authenticity builds trust.Power Dynamics Matter â How leaders can elevate or diminish others through their behaviour and why awareness of this is critical.
Kindness is Leadership â The lasting impact of treating others with respect, regardless of the situation or power dynamic.
Throughout this episode, Iâll explore what this encounter taught me about leadership and the responsibility we all carry, whether in families, workplaces, or communities. Iâll challenge you to reflect on your own congruence and the power dynamics in your life, urging you to lead with empathy and intention.
If you found value in this episode, Iâd love it if you could share it with someone who might benefit from these lessons. Letâs create a world where leadership is driven by integrity, not ego.
