In this episode of The Thinking Leader Bryce Hoffman and Marcus Dimbleby talk to Captain David Marquet, a retired United States Navy captain and the bestselling author of Turn the Ship Around and Leadership is Language.
Captain David Marquet imagines a workplace where everyone engages, contributes their full intellectual capacity, and where everyone is a leader.
In this episode, the trio discuss what leadership is and how to lead effectively. As you will hear in the show, the current structure of leadership is overdue for a change. The system in place at the moment is a permission-based one where organizations reward the overachievers and feed their egos. The issue with this leadership style is that it relies on one person to make all the decisions.
A way to fix this is to give everyone autonomy and action with intention, not permission. Intention-based leadership doesn’t fall apart like a house of cards when the leader is not present.
In this episode you will hear:
- How to fix the leadership issues in your organization
- Why you should let your team be autonomous
- Knowing when to be intentionally tough
- How to hold people accountable
