Five Leadership Behaviors to Lean Into and Five to Leave Behind - Episode 60


Listen Later

What if one or two changes in your leadership behavior could transform the way you feel about the work, inspire your team, and achieve new levels of success?

I spend a lot of time with nonprofit leaders of all different sizes of organizations in all different niches. And what I've noticed is that there are very specific leadership behaviors that tend to produce extraordinary results. And then there are other leadership behaviors that tend to hold organizations back. And what's fascinating is that a lot of the time, the behaviors that are holding organizations back are the ones the leaders don't even realize they're doing. 

So I think it's time to take a look under the hood and examine the behaviors that make a huge difference in one direction or another. I'm flagging five behaviors to lean into and five to leave behind. There just might be one or two that will be the key to taking your leadership and results to the next level.

In this episode, we share:

  • Leadership behaviors that attract exceptional players to your team (and behaviors that repel them)
  • The brain science behind why certain leadership behaviors are so effective
  • High-value expectations to set for your leadership team
  • One behavioral key to ensuring innovation within your organization
  • Two common productivity-sapping behaviors that can be hard to give up, and how to leave them behind
  • How to get everyone on the leadership team operating in their “zone of genius” as close to 100% of the time as possible


If you found value in this episode, please share it with other progressive nonprofit leaders.  And I’d be grateful if you would leave a rating and review on Apple podcasts, which will help even more people find out about this podcast.

Thanks!
