In this episode, host Bernie Borges is joined by Matt Poepsel, PhD, a Marine veteran, accomplished corporate leader, and author of "Expand the Circle."
Three key takeaways for leaders and professionals:
1️⃣ Enlightened Leadership Requires RewiringOutdated leadership models don’t serve today’s fast-evolving world. Matt Poepsel, PhD, explained how drawing on mindfulness practices and looking beyond hierarchical thinking helps leaders find purpose and make a broader impact.
2️⃣ Self-Awareness is the Cornerstone of GrowthBoth Matt and Bernie highlighted the importance of self-awareness for leadership success. Only 10-15% of people are truly self-aware, so giving ourselves permission to look inward and accept feedback is crucial to becoming better leaders and teammates.
3️⃣ Talent Optimization Demands IntegrationSuccessful organizations blend business strategy and people practices. As Matt Poepsel, PhD, shared, optimizing talent isn’t just about performance. It’s also about engagement, well-being, and meaning at work.
Main Takeaway:Lasting fulfillment and leadership impact come from cultivating self-awareness, embracing change, and expanding your sense of purpose beyond personal ambitions.
