Vulnerability alone WON’T make you a great leader. Yes, vulnerability is key to trust and connection. Leaders are told to be open, admit mistakes, and be authentic. But vulnerability without leadership can backfire. Imagine a CEO addressing their company during a crisis. They acknowledge the struggles, admit uncertainty, and… stop there. No vision. No direction. Just uncertainty. That’s not leadership. That’s fear without a plan. In today’s Leadership Spark, we explore what separates vulnerability that builds trust from vulnerability that erodes confidence. You’ll discover the real formula for impactful leadership: Vulnerability + Leadership = Trust & Competence. Hear real-world examples of leaders who got it right and those who didn’t. If you’ve ever wondered how to be authentic while still inspiring confidence, this episode is for you.
