Want to be a better leader? Listen to this interview

Eye Openers Podcast

I think we can all agree that the last few years have been uniquely challenging. It’s hard to plan ahead when the future has been so uncertain.

But leading from fear isn’t going to get you where you want to go. That’s why I’m so excited to share this recent discussion I had with Carole Ann Penney of Penney Leadership.

In this interview, we chatted about:

• Our definitions of leadership and how they differ from the typical lens
• How to get super clear on what our values are in order to lead well
• What to do when fear takes over (Hint: Ask yourself, what if it were easy?)

Eye Opening Insights:

[00:06:29] “The way that I define leadership is moving forward through the unknown. So whether you're leading a team or you're leading yourself it's about where you take things when there is no map.”

[00:13:30] “Values are not words, they're behaviors. And they can be for an individual or they can be for an organization. I'm such a nerd because over the weekend, my family and I sat down and we started to define our family values because, we needed to kind of have something to bring us back to the kind of kindness, the kind of love that we have in our house and, and having those shared words is really helpful.”

[00:20:52] “And then I ask people a question, what if it were easy? What would you do? How would you move forward? What decision would you make right now if you knew it would be easy to implement that or to get that?”
