Before You Eat – “Thanksgiving Two-Step

Not all leadership development practices stand the test of time. Some ideas that once sounded effective have aged badly and may actually hold coaches and teams back today.

In this episode, we take a hard look at the leadership concepts that no longer work and the ones that still matter. From believing that one way of thinking fits every situation, to trying to lead alone without collaboration, to calling for help only when things fall apart, we unpack the three biggest mistakes that keep leaders stuck in old habits. Join us as we explore what modern leadership really requires.

In today’s ever-changing world of leadership, we’ve come to grips that leading by experience, tendencies, and feelings is no longer enough. Too often, leaders rely on what they’ve always done, how they naturally respond, or what simply “feels right” in the moment. But true leadership requires something deeper, intentional adaptation.

This episode dives into the rise of Adaptive Leadership, a model that challenges coaches and leaders to grow beyond instinct and evolve with the people and circumstances around them. We explore how developing your Intelligence Quotient (IQ), Emotional Quotient (EQ), and Learning Quotient (LQ) can transform the way you connect, communicate, and create lasting impact.
Join us as we unpack how great leaders move from reaction to reflection, and from comfort to conscious change.
