Navigating Leadership and Agency: Insights from 'A Guide to Thriving'
Welcome to LevelUp Leadership, the podcast designed to help you elevate your leadership journey.
In this enlightening discussion, Jon Rosemberg challenges traditional views of leadership, seeing it not as a formal role but as a way of engaging with the world. He introduces his new book, 'A Guide to Thriving,' focusing on 'agency'—the capacity to make intentional choices and believe in their impact—as a fundamental pillar of leadership.
Through personal reflections and professional insights, Jon explains the AIR framework (Awareness, Inquiry, Reframe) to help individuals transition from survival mode to thriving. The conversation also touches on the adaptation to hybrid work environments, the importance of balancing authenticity and belonging, and the future intersection of human and artificial intelligence.
