Every person has a Human Power, a uniquely human quality that shapes the effect they have on others, and through conversations with leaders, psychologists, entrepreneurs, athletes and community builders, we explore what that power is, where it comes from, and its potential shadow side too.

Hosted by Liam Whitfield, brought to you by CHC Consulting.

In the inaugural episode of Human Powers, Liam Whitfield sits down with CHC Consulting CEO and founder Clayton Donnelly to explore what decades of working with people have taught him about leadership, teams and culture.

From why leadership is a privilege, to what superheroes can teach us about how we wield our own powers, Clayton shares his perspective on what it means to lead well, understand people and remain human while doing it.

And, of course, we ask the question at the heart of the show: What is Clayton’s Human Power?
