  • Ep 52: Impeccability as a Leader

    Part of a leader’s job is to be impeccable. Unfortunately, even some of the most brilliant leaders equate impeccability to perfection. And nothing can be further from the truth. On the contrary, impeccability does not mean you are perfect. In essence, it means you are responsible for your edges, you recognise them when they show up, and you address them accordingly. Of course, this is all better said than done. So why is impeccability as a leader challenging for many? And how should you address impeccability as a leader accordingly? I’ll get into the nitty-gritty of impeccability in leadership so don’t forget to join me!

  • Ep 49: Just the Way You Are

    At one point or another in their leadership, leaders will most likely encounter the phrase "just the way you are." While seemingly harmless, this phrase is actually the antithesis of a really powerful and transformative leadership.

So how should you approach the phrase so it opens up possibilities for you rather than get in the way of your leadership? The answer to that question and more in this episode so please join me!

  • Ep 47: Comparison—The Means by which You Keep Yourself Mediocre

    To make themselves feel better, many people use a classic tool—comparison. Unfortunately, even the smartest people in the room can end up downgrading their possibilities (and their leadership) by comparing themselves to others. It's easy to understand why many people turn to comparison. For starters, comparison can be massively comforting to the ego. However, comparison comes with a costly price: it prevents people (including brilliant leaders) from seeing their edge and deepening their ability to lead. So what do you do about comparison so it does not get in the way of your leadership? How do you take on your edge while not diminishing the edge of others? The lowdown on comparison and the answers to those questions and more in this episode, so don't forget to tune in!
