AEM #93 Zena Me - Leadership, Trauma, Eldership and Boarding School


Listen Later

What is good leadership? What makes a great leader? What is a servant leader? And how does boarding school impact our leaders?

Today I am speaking with leadership expert, Zena Me who has worked for decades with CEOs and senior leaders.

She talks about the keys of great leadership: the importance of emotional and spiritual intelligence, humility and serving the wider system.

A really fascinating conversation.

Zena works with senior leaders, coaches and constellators who want to transform social systems, making them more just, equitable and eco-conscious.

She is an experienced teacher, coach and constellator in the lost art of eldership and leads an online elders community, offering programmes for those who are trapped in mid-life and want to find their unique Eldership niche.
