How to Lead with Authenticity (Even If It Means Having Tough Conversations) with Mike Ray
In a world where it's often easier to avoid conflict and uncomfortable conversations, this episode of Failing Up challenges the status quo. Join hosts David Huffaker, Bethany Vooys, and Phil Kingsley as they dive deep into the art of leading with authenticity alongside their guest, Mike Ray, Director of Leadership and Growth for KW Austin.
Have you ever wondered how to lead with authenticity, even when it means having those tough, gut-wrenching conversations? Mike Ray believes that true failure isn't just about not being your best self; it's about failing to be real in your personal and professional life. Listen in as he opens up about a pivotal moment when he wasn't fully present in his personal life and how he navigated it.
As the conversation unfolds, you'll discover the power of leaning into discomfort and addressing the issues that plague us when ignored. Mike shares his personal journey of vulnerability and how sharing his struggles allowed him to lead authentically.
David emphasizes the impact of transparency during moments of failure and how it can garner unexpected support from those around you. Phil, drawing from his coaching experience, reminds us that on the days when showing up feels impossible, giving just 10% is better than giving nothing at all. He even highlights the importance of openly admitting when you're having one of those 10% days.
Bethany underscores how leading with authenticity breathes life into any room, even when discussing failure. It not only brings your own freedom but also liberates others.
Towards the end, Mike imparts invaluable advice: Be honest with people, ask for help when you need it, and ensure you have a tight-knit support system during challenging times. In those moments of adversity, you'll witness the incredible strength of your community.
Join us in this thought-provoking episode where vulnerability becomes a superpower, and authenticity reigns supreme. Learn how to lead with your true self, no matter how tough the conversation may be. Tune in to Failing Up Episode 9, because sometimes, failing up means daring to be genuine.
