The Secret Ingredient To Great Leadership

You might have scrolled past countless lists of what makes a great leader, but today, we're diving into a rarely discussed yet vital component: courage in leadership. This episode uncovers why courage is the secret ingredient behind exceptional leadership, seamlessly blending personal anecdotes with informed insights.

Unfortunately, this week, I am riding solo without a guest. However, my endeavors in leadership coaching and authoring the "Rising Leader Handbook" have gifted me robust experiences and knowledge, which I am eager to share. Coupling these insights with real-world applications furnishes a comprehensive guide to mastering courage in your leadership journey.
