121. Leading with Vulnerability

This episode is about leadership vulnerability. I will share some of my own experiences of vulnerability, explain what vulnerability is, why it is important and why you should consider being a more vulnerable leader.

In this episode:

• One of my first experiences seeing a senior leader be vulnerable.
• What I used to believe vulnerability was and how I started to implement it.
• A CEO’s viewpoint of how he leverages vulnerability in his company.
• What will happen if a leader doesn’t focus on vulnerability?
• Why your ego pushes you to avoid vulnerability.
• How I leveraged vulnerability while writing The Visibility Factor.
• How vulnerability plays a role in building a high performing team.
• Vulnerability is necessary to build trust and connection with others and self-trust.
