Qualities of Great Leaders

The Millennial Leader

Ever wondered how many unspoken habits can make or break your leadership journey? In this first episode, Chuck and Cory draw back the curtain on the things that make many leaders good, but so few truly great. Delving into the myths surrounding work-life separation, we scrutinize the elusive 'magic switch' that many believe can neatly divide personal and work spheres. Our narrative threads in wisdom from historical figures like Teddy Roosevelt to illustrate that true leadership is about broad visions, caring for others, and guiding your team to see beyond the everyday grind.
This episode is full of insights on building a leadership persona that resonates with people and adds authentic value. We discuss the individuals working diligently behind the scenes and how leadership isn't exclusively about climbing the corporate ladder, but rather about creating a nurturing community. Sharing anecdotes from experiences in the worlds of corporate meeting rooms and education classrooms, we dissect the intricate dance of being hands-on without falling into the trap of micromanagement. It's an honest reflection on the touchstone of leadership: the influential power of leading by example, especially when times get tough.
We wrap up by tackling the complexities of work-life balance in our hyper-connected era, considering how a leader's demeanor can ripple through a team. Personal stories enrich the conversation, illustrating how mutual support can become a wellspring of strength for leaders and their teams. And finally, we revisit a sage piece of advice from Cory's college mentor about maintaining perspective—a mantra that has stayed with him throughout the years.
