3. Avoid the Mundane, Quieten your Cleverness, and Practice Hosting as a Potent Form of Leadership | D.K.

How effectively can you bring out the best in a group of people? We can often get trapped into thinking that it’s our role to be the ‘hero’ for a group, where it’s likely that you can be way more effective by being the ‘host’. This episode will help you get out of your own way so you can unlock the potential that exists in those you lead.Today I’m talking with creative producer and speaker coach D.K. about: Why avoiding the mundane and embracing creativity is essential for effective leadershipHow the role of a pioneer involves venturing into unexplored territory and creating space for others to follow……and the role of a host involves facilitating meaningful experiences that fully involves othersWhy empathy, voice, and participation are essential elements in group settingsThe power of grace in communication and the significance of quieting one's clevernessThe power of simply sitting and being togetherYou can find D.K. at https://justadandak.com/Check out my services and offerings https://www.digbyscott.com/Subscribe to my newsletter (https://www.digbyscott.com/thoughts#subscribe)Follow me on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/digbyscott/

There's no one way to lead. Yet we need to find a way. Our own way. And it can be hard to get right. As we find our way to lead it can be useful to listen to how others found theirs. Each fortnight, I’ll share a rich, unhurried conversation with someone who’s leaned into and learned from the challenges of leadership, change, and life while staying true to themselves. You'll get to experience me doing what I do best: asking the surface-piercing questions to help people see what they couldn't see before. Including you.
