Who Are You To Lead Anyway?

Send us a text

Welcome back to "Who Are You to Lead Anyway?" I'm Cynthia Jamieson, and in today's episode, I'm excited to share some invaluable leadership insights inspired by my recent time with my granddaughters—a lively three-year-old and a precious five-month-old.
As I observed them, I couldn't help but marvel at the lessons they effortlessly teach about leadership and life. From their insatiable curiosity and openness to their authentic emotional expression and resilience, children embody qualities that can profoundly impact how we lead.
Join me as I explore how embracing authenticity and resilience, living in the moment, fostering creativity, and nurturing emotional intelligence can enhance our leadership effectiveness. I delve into practical exercises and tips, inviting you to adopt a "fascinated anthropologist" mindset in your interactions, reflect on your unique leadership strengths, and incorporate mindfulness practices into your daily routine.
Drawing parallels between children's natural adaptability and the demands of leadership in today's dynamic world, I emphasize the importance of building genuine relationships and cultivating adaptability within our teams.
Don't miss this opportunity to discover how the wisdom of children can enrich your leadership journey. Subscribe, share this episode with fellow leaders, and together, let's lead with curiosity, authenticity, and heart.
