In this episode, I share my experience as a guest lecturer for a graduate class on Leadership Essentials. Reflecting on how my personal, professional, academic, and leadership backgrounds inform my approach to leadership, I discuss the importance of self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and adaptability in leadership development. I explore leadership lessons, such as overcoming challenges to build confidence, the role of personality and neurodivergence in leadership, and the value of mentorship and knowledge-sharing. The episode encourages listeners to reflect on their leadership journeys and recognize the growth from sharing experiences and learning from others.
