Returning guest co-host Colin T. McLetchie, PCC BCPP (President and Founder of Five Ways Forward) and I expand on a topic we touched on last week: Leadership With Love. We discuss the intersections between work life and personal life, and how leadership can be an expression of love. Here are a few key highlights from our discussion.
- The false dichotomy of living two lives: work and personal
- Job descriptions as indicators of inherent biases within your organization
- Defining who you want to be as a leader and why
- Defining what leadership is to your organization
- Parallels between our experience with primary caregivers and our leadership style
- Support employees by helping them into a position well-suited to their skills
- More possibilities emerge when we listen to heart wisdom
- Courageous conversations vs difficult conversations
- Unlearning patterns that aren't serving us
- Impacting the bottom line by shifting company culture
- The importance of building time to reflect
- Accessibility of growth mindset
- Action steps to begin moving forward in the direction of leading with love
