What separates good leaders from truly great ones? In Actualized Leadership, psychologist Dr. William L. Sparks blends the timeless wisdom of Maslow, Jung, McClelland, and Frankl to explore what it really means to lead from your highest self. Grounded in science and personal development theory, this book reveals how the journey to effective leadership begins with self-awareness—especially the parts of ourselves we’d rather ignore.
In this episode, we unpack the nine traits of actualized leaders and the importance of meeting your “shadow”—those hidden fears and behaviors that hold you back from your full potential. You’ll learn how to align your inner drive with purpose, balance ambition with authenticity, and lead in a way that uplifts both people and performance.
Because the greatest leaders aren’t just skilled—they’re self-aware.
