Ep. 63 - Want to Be a Better Leader? Start Coaching Your Team Like This
Leadership. A tough gig. So what makes a good leader? There is so much research available by Brené Brown, Simon Sinek, Dan Pink but until reading a book by Dan Airely, I didn't understand the social and market contracts that govern our society and how leadership today must encompass both. And it’s often at the cross-section of these two where leaders get it wrong.
Social contracts, while vulnerable and fragile, are more fulfilling and meet our core needs as human beings. But when underpinned by a market contract, the market contract must prevail.
While coaching and leadership are two individual skill sets, a leader who is not a coach is only as half effective as they can be. Coaching helps empower and support others in a way an effective leader needs to for maximum impact and success.
You’ll learn:
- What the difference is between a market and a social contract
- Why empathy is important as a leader
- How coaching tools help you empower your team
- Why the ‘swinging d*cks’ in a market contract unfortunately prevail
