In episode 76, you’ll meet leadership development expert, Jamie Turner. Jamie provides valuable insights on how to become an effective leader, particularly for those of us in a midlife season. He shares his experience on how to develop leadership skills and the importance of mindset over skillset.
Jamie says that being an effective leader starts with self-awareness. He says to understand what motivates you. Be the authentic version of yourself. Nurture your desire to help others and consider how to manifest this desire into a career.
We discussed how leadership has evolved in recent decades. Jamie says that modern leadership requires true authenticity. Your team wants authenticity from you.
However, Jamie makes a distinction between transparency and authenticity. Your team doesn’t want to or need to know intimate details of your life. Too much transparency can be harmful to your relationships.
As a leader, Jamie says it is essential to be a teacher and inspirer for the people around you.
If you (or someone you know) are a leader in business, this episode is for you. Note, several of the principles Jamie discusses can be applied to our personal relationships outside of work.
