Listen "Lonely at the Top? You are hiker not a Leader"

Episode Synopsis

Your role as a leader, is not to come up with all the great ideas or have all the answers. It is to ensure that you create an environment where great ideas can happen.

By having the humility to Listen, Learning (and Unlearn) you will be able to provide inclusive Leadership which will ensure you don’t end up as a lone hiker.

Humility is not about diminishing our strengths or denying them, but about being honest about and owning your weaknesses, more so as a leader.

Is it lonely at the Top ? Here are three reasons why it should not be:

Listen, Learn, then Lead: Humility is the glue that binds together listening, learning, unlearning and leading

Leadership is about prioritising Growth over Goals: Goals are great, but a growth mindset is even better
