149: Why Perfectionism is Harmful for Leaders with Jess Joswick


Listen Later

You know when the project you’re working on is acceptable, maybe even good - but you can’t stop trying to repair it, more so to buy time rather than to actually improve it?

In this three-part episode, Erin is joined by business and leadership coach Jess Joswick to discuss perfectionism in all its forms, especially the ones we don’t want to confront.

Not only will you hear about the origins of perfectionism and how it impacts you personally, but how perfectionism trickles down into your team, the organization you lead, or the presence you have.

ICYMI – Your Post-Episode Homework: Get serious and still with these questions: Are you suffering from perfectionism? Have you been negatively impacted by a leader who led (or still leads) with perfectionism? How did that impact you/how does it still impact you today? Spend some time with no music, no podcasts, and really sit with these questions. Journal or meditate about it.
