The right amount: A conversation about leadership styles.


In this episode, Kate Johnson and guest Paul Thornton explore leadership styles: the practical application of different leadership behaviors and how they impact people and organizations.


The discussion covers the three primary leadership styles – directing, discussing, and delegating – and how effective leaders adapt their approach based on the needs of their team members and the circumstances at hand.

Kate and Paul also tackle the challenges facing leaders today, such as finding the courage to speak up and dealing with constant change.
