Diary of a Doer

Reflecting on Vulnerability in Leadership


Listen Later

I think vulnerability brings people together in beautiful ways, but when you lead a team, it’s scary to show that side of yourself. You may wonder if your team will still respect your authority and see you as a confident, decisive person. 

In today’s episode, we discuss: 

  1. Why historically being “the strong one” prevents your vulnerability in leadership
  2. How vulnerability with others shines a light on your own insecurities – and why it might be hard to face those
  3. How to handle the fear of people’s perceptions of you
  4. How to be vulnerable — with boundaries 

Here are other resources I mention: 

  • TED Talk - “The Power of Vulnerability,” Brené Brown
  • FREE: 50 Things To Outsource to an EA
