Returning guest co-host Colin T. McLetchie, PCC BCPP (President and Founder of Five Ways Forward) and I expand on a topic we touched on last week: Leadership With Love. We discuss the intersections between work life and personal life, and how leadership can be an expression of love. Here are a few key highlights from our discussion.

• The false dichotomy of living two lives: work and personal
• Job descriptions as indicators of inherent biases within your organization
• Defining who you want to be as a leader and why
• Defining what leadership is to your organization
• Parallels between our experience with primary caregivers and our leadership style
• Support employees by helping them into a position well-suited to their skills
• More possibilities emerge when we listen to heart wisdom
• Courageous conversations vs difficult conversations
• Unlearning patterns that aren’t serving us
• Impacting the bottom line by shifting company culture
• The importance of building time to reflect
• Accessibility of growth mindset
• Action steps to begin moving forward in the direction of leading with love
