Listen "Consensus, Control, And Everything In Between"
Episode Synopsis
What kind of leader are you on your best day? What kind of leader are you on your worst?In this episode, we explore the real-life tension between autocratic and consensus leadership. We talk about the ditches on both sides of the leadership road. The moments of crisis, where moving forward saved the day, and the times when team misalignment made even simple decisions exhausting.We unpack how decision-making changes under pressure, what happens when leaders get emotionally or physically depleted, and why defaulting to “just doing it yourself” might actually be a distress signal. We also dive into the impact of team dynamics, the importance of vision, mission, and values alignment, and how to discern when someone’s feedback is helpful… or just a roadblock.Whether you’re leading in a crisis, building a healthy team culture, or figuring out how to make confident calls without burning out, this conversation will help you find a way forward that’s healthy for both your team and yourself.
