As a leadership expert I am often asked to comment on politics and public issues. There has been plenty to say about the ongoing challenges in the US election process. In this special bonus episode, I get together with fellow leadership expert, Tim Collings of 4i Leadership to have a conversation about what we are thinking and learning about leadership by observing the election experience.
Why you should listen:
- We explore the contrast between clash of perspectives: short-term vs long-term, individual vs collective
- How the tension in USA politics is a culture war based on values and the messy journey of development
- Biden’s strategy of the AND: “prosperity AND purpose”
We explore:
- What Tim and I each think Joe Biden should do when he steps into office
- Why Biden’s message for unity has fallen short of hitting the mark
- Somehow we ended up talking about ‘dominatrix’, much to Tim’s embarrassment!
