Be the Anchor  – Strategies and Support for Small Business Owners

44 - Finding your Blind Spots as a Leader


Listen Later

I am getting vulnerable with you today. There are few experiences in life that act as amplifiers for self-awareness. Intimate relationships, parenthood, and running a business  can act as 'amplifiers' that can help reveal our true nature and shed light on our blind spots as a leader. I am sharing a bit of my own personal journey, including mistakes and real-life examples, to illustrate the challenges leaders face when seeking and responding to feedback.  I have also created a fun quiz to help you discover your natural leadership style. I am sharing  few details about my upcoming six-week course 'Becoming an Anchored Leader.’ It is designed to help you become a more confident delegator, to lead tough conversations with clarity and to help you become even more self aware in a safe and confidential group. This episode is packed with practical advice and heartfelt insights to help you become a more resilient and effective leader.
