About Leading Lightly
From the publisher's feed
Leading Lightly with Kurt Kinnear helps serious leaders, owners, CEOs, and people stepping into bigger responsibility see what is making leadership heavier than it needs to be.
This podcast is for leaders who know they are doing too much, carrying too much, or watching too many decisions and problems come back to them.
Through practical leadership lessons, real-world experience, and honest reflection, Kurt explores leadership load, unclear ownership, decision bottlenecks, organizational friction, growth pressure, owner dependency, AI and change, and the hidden issues that make organizations harder to lead than they need to be.
The goal is not to care less.
The goal is to build organizations where caring deeply does not mean carrying everything.
Listen if you want to lead with more clarity, reduce unnecessary load, and build something that can grow without taking over your life.
