In this episode of The Thinking Leader, Bryce Hoffman and Marcus Dimbleby talk with Craig Dowden Ph. D., a thought leader, keynote speaker, and best-selling author.

They discuss the importance of a leader mastering their ‘self’ before they master their business. Leaders must learn from their own experiences and understand their own emotions before they can have a truly objective and positive view on business. You simply cannot lead through ego alone in the modern world.

They also talk about the value of mentors and coaches, and how the best CEOs lead with empathy and humility. Showing vulnerability as a leader develops trust and honesty with your employees, and by taking a step back you can enable your team to function optimally and enthusiastically. They also cover ways to have maximum impact at meetings to build a positive and impactful culture, rather than simply filling the meeting minutes.

In this episode:

Why leaders should be mastering their ‘self’s before they master their business
The importance of putting aside ego to build honest and trust in your team
