OVERCOMING LEADERSHIP FAILURE

If you’ve ever failed in your leadership, raise your hand

*Raises both hands and legs up*

Don’t question how I did it…

The thing is when it comes to leadership, it’s a question of “when” not “if” you’re going to fail. What matters more is what you do when you seemingly fail. In this episode, I talk about a rather public failure I had with the very group where I have my leadership coaching and speaking certification from…

I share this for 2 reasons.

First reason is that it’s a reminder that even when we are passionate about something and teach it, we can still fall victim to the moment.

Second reason is to share how I responded to the failure and what you can possibly do the next time you fail.

Well what are you waiting for?

MORE DETAILS ABOUT EPISODE

Talking about a major leadership failure that almost kept me from an incredible opportunity one of the last days while I still lived in St. Louis. I also dive into sharing the power of leadership and how to develop your influence. This episode is a little different as it's from a session I hosted at the IINSPIRE-LSAMP Annual Conference this past February. I emphasize that leadership is influence and discusses the importance of priorities, listening, and motivation in leadership. I also addresses common fears and challenges in pursuing leadership and encourages listeners to be intentional in their leadership development.
