NFL Head Coach Kevin O’Connell of the Minnesota Vikings recently spoke at a leadership event— and I couldn’t wait to hit record and share what I took away. In this episode, I walk through the powerful themes he shared, especially his two core pillars of leadership: authenticity and empathy. You’ll hear how these human-centered values show up in his leadership style, how they connect to the servant leadership philosophy, and why these skills are more essential than ever in 2025.
From leading in tough times to building a culture where people matter and belong, this is a reminder that leadership is deeply human - and that how we lead matters just as much as where we’re going.
Enjoy!
