The era of the one-trick pony in leadership development has ended.
Excellence takes many forms and comes through a myriad of paths. That’s because leaders are human beings, and humans are complex.
Really complex.
That’s why conversations about leadership are more practical when they cover more territory.
Let me be clear. This is an argument not for eclecticism but for integration.
Not mismash, but mesh. For example:
- What happens when we look at adult development through the particular experiences of women (or men)?
- How do we think differently about women’s leadership when we consider the power and challenge of self-authorship?
- How do we answer both of these questions differently when we look at the human body and how it can get “grabbed” or triggered?
To explore these questions, I had a great conversation recently with Carolyn Coughlin, cofounder of Cultivating Leadership, teacher of Growth Edge Coaching, and business partner with my guest in episodes 3 and 14, Jennifer Garvey-Berger.
Take a listen and enjoy!
