What does it take to move from being a high performer to becoming a leader who develops others?

In this episode of How Leaders Think, Kenny Lange sits down with Michael Neuendorff, President of Bay Area Executive Coach, to discuss why today's leaders must move beyond command-and-control leadership and embrace a coaching mindset. They explore leadership blind spots, the dangers of the advice trap, reverse mentoring, earning influence, and practical ways to build stronger teams.

If you're a business leader, entrepreneur, manager, or nonprofit executive looking to develop people more effectively, this conversation will challenge how you think about leadership.
