In a world that often rewards taking, James Turk believes the most powerful leaders are the ones who give clarity, opportunity, second chances, and their full attention.

In this episode, I speak with James Turk, who is an executive coach, CEO of The Turk Group, and author of The Giving Game, about what it truly means to become the kind of leader others want to follow.

We explore:

Why most new leaders struggle and how to set them up for success from day one
The difference between “getting” and “giving” leadership and why it changes everything
Why he nearly didn’t make the phone call that launched his business
How to lead through imposter syndrome, perfectionism, and personal doubt
What to do when your definition of success starts to shift and how to build a business that matches it
How giving away the spotlight can strengthen your brand, your business, and your people

James also shares the personal story behind The Giving Game, and how his childhood experiences gave him a lifelong belief in second chances and in the power of helping others see what they’re capable of.

Whether you’re an experienced CEO, a first-time manager, or a consultant striking out on your own, this conversation will challenge how you lead and who you choose to become in the process.
