What if the key to being a great leader isn't about working harder, but about being more you?
Hi, I am Michael Hunter, founder of Uncommon Teams, and I'm so glad you found this episode of the Uncommon Leadership Podcast. Because today, I sit down with Jason Dea, who is a CPO, a startup advisor, and a leadership coach, and explore a new way to lead.
Discover why trying to be a different person in different contexts is exhausting and how being your authentic self can be your greatest strength.
Join us as we also talk about the art of turning big, overwhelming problems into manageable baby steps, and why focusing on the process—not just the outcome—is the most reliable path to success.
Grab a set and let's together explore a new way to lead with ease, purpose, and confidence.
