The Remarkable Leadership Podcast Leading Together with Tania Luna
What role does power play in your organization and your team? Tania Luna joins Kevin to discuss rethinking power as capacity, not control, and using “power with” instead of “power over” others. She shares four “power with” principles: follow purpose over person, rely on context over control, cultivate talent over collecting it, and build community over crowds. Leaders need to shift their mindset and take action to create a more inclusive and empowering work environment.
