Developing Resilience At Work With Jan Rutherford

As a leader the balance between being liked and being respected is blurred? Do I get down in the trenches with my team (so they will like me) or do I forge a path for us solo (potentially alienating others). In this conversation with former green beret Jan Rutherford we discussed the importance of trust, communication, and creating a culture of accountability within a team. Jan highlighted the significance of self-awareness, adaptability, and taking calculated risks as a leader. Hint: It means forgoing your eager to be well liked with taking the harder road of leading solo for your team. This discussion is full of actionable tips for becoming a more effective leader and helping your team thrive. Take a listen and let me know what you think!
