Leadership Myth #7 - "Leaders Are Always in Control"
We like to think we're always in complete control of our thoughts and behaviors. But the fact is, for even the most seasoned leaders, our emotions are often in charge.
In this episode, we welcome Dr. CK Bray, a cognitive behavioral researcher and founder and CEO of The Adaption Institute. He's an expert on how our feelings and beliefs inform everything we do and say – whether we know it or not. We'll explore the effects of constant stress on the brain, debunk the myth that leaders are always in control of their emotions, and share some strategies for getting our executive function to take back the reins.
