[298] Ever wondered which leadership style best matches your personality? Or how to lead effectively without formal management training? In the second part of the conversation with Valerie Delforge (International Business Strategy Consultant & Author), we shift our focus to the consequences and solutions to micromanagement.
More specifically, through sharing anecdotes from our own default leadership styles, we unpack the strengths and challenges associated with six main leadership profiles, explore the softer skills that build resilient leaders and provide actionable strategies to create healthier, more efficient business environments.
Parts of this conversation were originally released in December 2016 and October 2017 as part of Season 1.
