As leaders, it’s not only imperative that you create a vision for yourself as a leader, but also to work with your team to create a vision for the year.

In doing so, you have one holistic goal you are working towards and can reflect on this at the end of the year.

In this episode, I’ll be sharing the steps you can take to create your leadership vision for 2025, and I’ll be sharing my vision for the podcast for 2025.

If you didn’t listen to last week’s episode, episode 92, I’d highly recommend that you do. In this episode, we did a reflection of the year.

We reflected on your individual growth, your team’s performance and your leadership effectiveness.

We’ll use this today in creating your vision.

My guest today is Kadin McEwan, a student, writer, and activist on a mission to help raise awareness about autism in society and part of that includes education.

Kadin has an Autism diagnosis and has experienced the negative effects that gossip can have on neurodivergent people. 

In this episode we talk about Kadin's activism in this space and his experience with gossip.

We also discuss how the onboarding/screening process for employees can improve to ensure that all people are treated with respect, whether they are neurotypical or neurodiverse. 

And finally, Kadin gives advice to leaders on how they can treat people with disabilities in the workplace. 

Enjoy this episode!

“I never thought that the teachers would gossip more than the teenage students”

Meet Mike McQuillan:

Mike McQuillan moved from New York, USA to Lima, Peru to teach English as a foreign language.

Mike describes the last institute where he taught as a golden palace built on top of a toxic swamp. The systems worked, and the people were great, but the undercurrent of academic elitism and water cooler gossip undermined the teaching experience. He resigned in protest and now works full-time as a freelance public speaking coach.

We discuss:

• When Mike noticed that gossip is such an issue in the education sector
