In this inspiring episode of the Wise Practice Podcast, Michael Diettrich-Chastain shares how becoming a father has completely transformed his approach to work. Once a "road warrior" who spent 176 days traveling in 2023, Michael is now shifting his focus toward spending more time at home. He discusses the changes he's making by building a strong, seasoned team to handle client-facing tasks, allowing him to embrace a leadership and visionary role. Michael also dives into the critical competencies that define great leaders, such as emotional intelligence, communication, and the often-overlooked skill of asking better questions. He advocates for creating supportive, conscious business environments that inspire growth, connection, and positive change, not just within organizations, but rippling out into the world.
