ChangeMaker Leader Podcast

After decades of advising and inspiring some of the most eminent chief executives in the world, Lolly Daskal has uncovered a startling pattern: within each leader are powerful abilities that are also hidden impediments to greatness. She’s witnessed many highly driven, overachieving leaders rise to prominence fueled by well-honed skill sets, only to falter when the shadow sides of the same skills emerge.

Now Daskal reveals her proven system, which leaders at any level can apply to dramatically improve their results. It begins with identifying your distinctive leadership archetype and recognizing its shadow:

■ The Rebel, driven by confidence, becomes the Imposter, plagued by self-doubt.

■ The Explorer, fueled by intuition, becomes the Exploiter, master of manipulation.

■ The Truth Teller, who embraces candor, becomes the Deceiver, who creates suspicion.

■ The Hero, embodying courage, becomes the Bystander, an outright coward.

■ The Inventor, brimming with integrity, becomes the Destroyer, who is morally corrupt.

■ The Navigator, trusts and is trusted, becomes the Fixer, endlessly arrogant.

■ The Knight, for whom loyalty is everything, becomes the Mercenary, who is perpetually self-serving.

Using psychology, philosophy, and her own experience, Daskal offers a breakthrough perspective on leadership. She’ll take you inside some of the most cloistered boardrooms, let you in on deeply personal conversations with industry leaders, and introduce you to luminaries who’ve changed the world. Her insights will help you rethink everything you know to become the leader you truly want to be.

Nadine Moffat is passionate about making women feel good. She is co-founder and owner of Dress Mavens, an online custom dress store. After working in the beauty, fashion and wellness industry for over a decade, she had twins and didn’t return after her maternity leave. With the desire for a flexible schedule, she started a personal styling business that in turn highlighted the need for custom professional clothing which organically developed into Dress Mavens.

With strong business acumen, and growing up in an entrepreneurial home - Nadine is a born go-getter. Having nearly 20 years of business experience that includes a strong retail background, training and development, styling, and spa/business consulting, she's built on passion, and driven to succeed.

Dress Mavens has created an online community where women are choosing to love their bodies. Whether you’re petite, tall, slim, curvy or plus size, ordering these tailor-made dresses is just a few simple clicks away and voila another woman owning her figure. You can customize the color, neckline, sleeves, and hemline to suit your individual taste. And the fit, well it’s always a perfect match, but we should warn you that a boost of confidence may occur, and we invite you to embrace it, maybe even strut it out a little to get the full effect.

We want women to forget their size: it’s just a number. Size should not define us. A customized fit is where the magic happens. We want you to join our #dropthesize body movement and be part of the quest towards body acceptance by all women everywhere.

"My best advice to have a life and business based on the Thrive philosophy is to aim at balance in all areas of wellness." According to Melissa's Relational Wellness Wheel, there are eight areas of wellness: Physical, Emotional, Social, Vocational, Sexual, Environmental, Spiritual, and Financial. The goal is not to be perfect in every single area of wellness, because nobody is perfect. However, the goal is to strive towards a balance in these various areas of wellness, and to be mindful of when you feel out of balance so that you can make efforts to remedy that.

Leadership involves being able to tackle new situations and deal with failure, because we don’t always lead others into the known. If your burning desire is to maintain the status quo, go ahead and stick with the safe. But if you want to move the world or even better your organization, you need know how to navigate the uncharted and the scary, so you can bring others confidently with you.

That kind of leadership takes gumption, and one way we can get it is by pushing beyond what we think of as our boundaries in all kinds of ways. Dressing differently, traveling solo, jumping out of a plane, learning to sing – they can all make a person a better leader. By giving ourselves proof of our own courage we give ourselves the confidence to lead others.

 

Shelagh has spent a lifetime balancing family, work, and pets with her need to do adventuresome things. Learning to fly small planes, riding horseback across the Mongolian steppes, living in the UK, Italy, America, and back to Canada (with kids and pets), and drastically changing her career several times led her to believe she knew something about making adventures happen. Then she started investigating just how she and other women managed it, and realized there were other acts of daring-do – such as singing in a rock band, or wearing pink, or indeed creating Gumption – that were way scarier.

The creation of Gumption has therefore been a very personal journey, as well reflecting the intrepid experiences of all those lovely women whose contribution of wisdom and know-how has made it all possible.
