What if embracing your weaknesses could make you a stronger leader?

Join us for an inspiring discussion with Irene Riad, where we explore the intriguing teachings of Carl Jung and their impact on self-aware leadership. Irene passionately shares how understanding the self, ego, persona, and shadow can guide leaders in recognizing their strengths and vulnerabilities. This episode promises to offer insights into building genuine relationships and fostering trust through authenticity, while highlighting the essence of resilience as a balance between strength and vulnerability. Discover the transformative potential of the pause, which empowers leaders to respond intentionally rather than react automatically.

As we continue our conversation, Irene inspires us to see weaknesses as valuable assets and to cultivate empathy in the workplace. We reflect on Jung's idea of integrating the various elements of our psyche to achieve true self-awareness and authenticity. By pausing before responding, leaders can align their actions with their true selves instead of merely conforming to societal expectations. Embracing our full selves not only nurtures resilience and trust but also integrity in leadership.

Stay tuned for our next episode, featuring Christian Muntean, where we explore leadership training inspired by Olympic athletes.
