Episode 108

If you don’t redesign leadership it will redesign you



SUMMARY 


In this episode, James Rule explores a hard truth many experienced leaders eventually face, leadership evolves whether you choose to or not.


As responsibility, pressure, and visibility increase, the way you lead must change. If it doesn’t, leadership will quietly begin to reshape you, your energy, your identity, and your relationships often without your awareness or consent.


This is not an episode about burnout, stepping away, or losing ambition. It is a challenging conversation about agency, maturity, and redesigning leadership so it remains sustainable at senior levels.



KEY TAKEAWAYS


Why leadership must evolve as pressure and scale increase.

Four critical areas every experienced leader must consciously redesign.

How to reclaim agency before leadership begins to erode energy and identity.
