In this episode, I dive deep into the practical aspects of leadership with a focus on behaviors over traits.
Everyone aspires to be a great leader, but what does that really entail beyond the buzzwords and theories?
I share a story from a recent conversation with Bill, a senior engineering manager, who's striving to enhance his leadership skills, particularly around building trust and creating psychological safety within his team.
We discuss how easy it is to get caught up in the theoretical aspects of leadership, like the concepts found in leadership books, and overlook the necessity of actionable steps.
Throughout our discussion, I emphasize the importance of transforming leadership aspirations into specific, behavior-based actions that lead to real results.
Join me as we explore how to break down common leadership challenges into tangible actions that can immediately impact your team. So press play and let’s chat about turning theory into action!
