One of the most overlooked, but important, ingredients to leadership is empathy. While sometimes we hear that being a leader means we should not care for our team, without empathy, our team will feel neglected and perform worse than if we cared for and understood them fully. No matter if you are naturally empathetic or uncertain of what the word even means, this episode will help you care for your team and others around you in a way that will elevate your leadership to the next level.

We often set goals for ourselves, but it can seem impossible to actually achieve those goals, no matter how much we want to achieve them.

If you are not healthy, your leadership style and overall effectiveness will struggle. In this episode, we discuss the importance of caring for yourself first and how that can make or break your output and relationships in the workplace.

True leadership is not about how we best promote ourselves, but how best we advance the needs of others. In this episode, we talk about how good leadership is servant leadership which adds value to the people we lead.

No one ever fully arrives as a leader. Leadership takes continual, intentional growth in order to reach our full potential. This means we must step out of our comfort zones and be stretched so that we can find significance as leaders.

Book we recommend:
