Listen "S08 E27: World-Changing Leadership Begins at Home"
Episode Synopsis
In this week's episode, Michael McRay sets the table for next week's conversation with Brittany and Geoff Anderson, authors of Living Room Leadership. After his divorce, Michael crafted a framed set of commitments that define how he and his son show up together. This episode explores the radical but simple claim that world-changing leadership begins at home, and that the tools we treat as normal at work - vision, mission, values - matter even more in our living rooms. Michael introduces key themes from next week's conversation: moving from deficit to strength-based family culture, understanding families as systems rather than just individuals, and reclaiming play as a leadership technology that accelerates learning and disarms defensiveness. In this episode, Michael also shares:How to shift from organizing family life around what's wrong to organizing around what's already strongWhy individual growth isn't enough if the family system doesn't change with youHow excavating your story requires gentle patience, slowly uncovering what pain and shame have buried beneath the surfaceWhy the person you are at home is the person you areComing Up SoonJoin us for next week's episode as Brittany and Geoff Anderson talk on their new book, Living Room LeadershipOrder Living Room Leadership for yourself - available now!
