The Slow Fade: How Leaders Lose Their Way Without Noticing | Peter Greer


Listen Later

Only 1 in 3 leaders finish well. Why does this happen? Why do so many good leaders fail and not even see it coming? How can you finish well?

 
In this eye-opening conversation, Peter Greer the CEO of Hope International and author of How Leaders Lose Their Way: And How to Make Sure It Doesn't Happen to You explores the slow, subtle erosion of leadership integrity and what it takes to stay the course. From writing your own eulogy to safeguarding against isolation, Peter shares practical strategies rooted in two decades of global leadership and hard-won wisdom.

In this episode, you'll discover:

  • The "Drift" Problem: Why most leaders don’t crash instead they slowly fade, and drift away from initial purpose
  • Eulogy vs. Resume Virtues: What writing your own eulogy can teach you about true success 
  •  The Power of Accountability: How “no secrets” meetings can save your leadership ( and why it's important to do life in context of community )
  • Sabbath & Slowing Down: Why rest isn’t optional for resilient leadership
  • Resignation Letters & Role Clarity: How to remember you're more than your title
  • Finishing Well: What separates leaders who thrive long-term from those who don’t

Whether you're leading a team, an organization, or your own life this episode offers a roadmap for staying rooted in purpose, character, and community. Don’t drift. Finish well.
