It signals self-awareness and the fact that you couldn’t possibly have every answer. And that’s what makes you open. • Open to other perspectives • Open to seeing something you hadn’t before •…

The leaders I respected most didn’t force it. They just seemed…natural. Not natural like “natural born leaders.” Natural because they were clear. • Clear on who they were • Clear on what mattered • Clear on their purpose I’ve also seen the opposite. Leaders who seemed to be copy-pasting something from a book. Saying the…

Wow. What a time to be a leader. New headlines every day. High-level leaders being asked to move on. And those who remain? They’re left to lead their teams through complexity, turbulence, and drastic change. Maybe just a week ago, you were cruising. Now? You’re navigating uncertainty. And uncertainty breeds anxiety—for you and your team.…
