Listen "The Ego Trap: Lessons in Leadership from the Legal Sector"
Episode Synopsis
                            As I sat down recently for a deeply engaging conversation with my friend and esteemed colleague, Gabrielle Forbes, I couldn't help but reflect on a pervasive challenge I've observed spanning my years in the law and business: ego. In the pressure-cooker environment of professional services, where intellect and competition dance a fine line, ego can either serve as a driving force or become a career-stalling impediment. Over our discussion, Gabbi and I explored how unchecked ego can undermine leadership, especially in the uniquely collaborative world of law. Our conversation was not just about the theory of ego in leadership but about real experiences and strategies to foster genuine collaboration and growth in competitive environments.My dialogue with Gabbi was a crucial reminder that leadership is not about who stands in front, basking in their own glory, but about who works behind the scenes to build an inclusive, empowered, and cohesive team. Thank you to Gabrielle Forbes for a candid and inspiring dialogue. Links:Website | LinkedIn | YouTube
