One of the greatest paradoxes of leadership is that to lead well, you must learn to let go. To get comfortable with not having all the answers! To release your grip, relinquish control, and know that the wisdom already exists in everyone around you.

Professor, coach and facilitator to the next generation of leaders, Rob Lion has spent the last 20 years fostering self-leading workplace cultures that truly listen to their people, building leaders that are facilitators at heart.

Because the best leaders? They’ve taken off the stabilisers of delegation, left their ego at the door, and learnt the delicate dance of stepping back, to invite others to step in.

Find out about:

The intersection of leadership and facilitation – and what it takes to be a facilitative leader
Why we should think with our whole bodies, rather than just listen to our gut
The complex, nuanced role of surrender and control
Why leadership micromanagement and delegation are safety mechanisms
Why great leaders and facilitators must learn to confront their own triggers
