Yin and Yang of Leadership

Send us a text

Truly great leadership doesn’t just happen. Great leaders, the ones we admire, know the value of taking time to reflect on their own beliefs and patterns. While the outer work of leadership – looking at behaviors – is critically important; equally, the inner work of leadership is critical. The inner work is about examining ourselves, our beliefs, our expectations and noticing how those impact the outer image – the behaviors. Great leadership is more of a yin and yang process – looking at the inner and the outer, being versatile in what is required of you. Tune in to understand 4 mental models of leading and to see why just playing to your strengths isn't the best course of action.

💡 About the show:
There is no growth in comfort and no comfort in growth. Business today typically values and promotes leaders for their subject expertise. Leaders who have command of the details and execute based on knowledge and experience are highly respected. However, to grow as a leader you have to get out of your comfort zone – that means learning to lead without just being the expert. Learn to gain the trust and respect of a team that might know more than you do. Get comfortable with ambiguity and with not having all the information. Develop the skills and confidence to lead in a different way.

For female leaders, subject expertise is usually the source of their confidence. Learning to lead outside your comfort zone is one step for breaking through the glass ceiling. The show’s purpose is to give you tips on how can you develop the capability to lead – to get out of your comfort zone.
