Episode Synopsis


We’re kicking off our new series on the 5 Voices, and we’re starting with the one that makes up the biggest part of the population, and the least heard in most rooms: the Nurturer.Nurturers are the champions of people, values, and relational harmony. They’re the ones who notice the atmosphere shift, who celebrate quietly, and who make sure people are cared for before projects are pushed. Here’s the kicker: 43% of the population are Nurturers… but they’re often ignored, talked over, or dismissed.In this episode, Shannon and I unpack:Why Nurturers are the “relational oil” that keeps teams movingHow silence can undermine their influence (and why leaders can’t afford to miss their wisdom)The shadow side of conflict-avoidance and under-valuing themselvesAnd what leaders can do to empower Nurturers to speak first, be heard, and lead with confidenceIf you’re a Nurturer, you’ll feel seen in this one. And if you lead a Nurturer, you’ll walk away with practical ways to call out their strengths and stop mistaking their quiet for weakness.TakeawaysTaking breaks is essential for productivity.The Five Voices framework is a collaborative assessment.Understanding behavioral leadership styles is crucial.Each person embodies all five voices in different orders.Maturity allows us to appreciate all voices.Nurturers prioritize people over profit.Nurturers are often the quietest voices in the room.Silence from nurturers can indicate a lack of safety.Empowering nurturers involves inviting them to speak first.The Nurturer voice is vital for relational harmony.Chapters00:00 | Welcome Back from the Break02:57 | Introduction to the Five Voices08:39 | Understanding the Five Voices Framework22:18 | Exploring the Nurturer VoiceThe Five Voices Assessment: masiwillis.giantos.com/store/5-voicesVisit my website: www.masiwillis.comFollow on Instagram: @masiwillisConnect on LinkedIn: Masi Willis  Contact me: [email protected] to grow your leadership, elevate your team, or join my next masterclass? Let’s chat... your next level could be one click away.What was your biggest “aha” from today’s episode?
