Episode 436: Unlocking Leadership - The Hidden Psychology Behind Great Leaders with Dr. Elias Aboujaoude
In this episode of The Above the Business Podcast, Bradley Hamner sits down with Dr. Elias Aboujaoude, a psychiatrist, researcher, and author, to explore the intersection of psychology and leadership for small business owners. If you're leading a company with revenues between $500K and $5M, this conversation is packed with insights on self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and leadership character.
Dr. Aboujaoude shares his journey from psychiatry to leadership coaching, emphasizing how leaders can empower their teams while maintaining their own psychological well-being. He challenges modern leadership culture, discusses the importance of therapy for personal and professional growth, and introduces his book, A Leader’s Destiny, which encourages leaders to rise above daily stressors to focus on the bigger picture.
If you’ve ever questioned whether your leadership style truly serves your business and team, this episode is for you.
