In your current work or even at home, how are you leading?

Do you lead from the lenses of letting the learner taking the lead role OR do you come from the manager that sometimes can tell people what to do?

I think we all struggle with this balance but in this episode, Perry Timms, speaks about why he is actively promoting self-management in work.

This pandemic has changed the world of work and Sara Martin is not sorry for it.

Do you coach people?

This could be in business, life, sports.

This is easier said than done, but join in on the conversation as Andy Bass, mental skills coach for the Pittsburg Pirates talks about why he is not sorry for being an advocate for player choice especially in the learning process.
