Episode 10: What Your Senior Leader Needs You To Know


Listen Later

Welcome to today’s episode of the Second Chair Leaders Podcast! 🎙️ I’m so glad you’re here because we’re diving into something every second-chair leader needs to hear.

💡 Here’s the big idea: Your senior leader needs you more than you realize. Most second-chair leaders either don’t know this or don’t know how to step into the influence their senior leader desperately wants them to have. You’re not just a task-doer—you’re a leader, a partner, and a key player in the mission. Today, we’ll explore how to own that role, build trust, and lead with confidence.

📌 In this episode, we cover:

  1. How to show up consistently and build trust.
  2. The shift from follower to proactive partner.
  3. Giving honest feedback with courage and grace.
  4. Supporting your senior leader as a person, not just a leader.
  5. 🔥 Key moments include:
    [3:00] What your senior leader sees in you.
    [12:00] Moving from tasks to leadership.
    [24:00] Giving feedback that drives growth.
