On this episode of GoalChat, host Debra Eckerling talks about Leadership with Marisa Wheeling Ciesluk, MWC Leadership; Monique Daigneault, MD Consulting; and Jess Dewell, Managing Partner, Operations + Strategy, Red Direction. The panel shares their thoughts on what leadership is, qualities of good and bad leaders, ways to develop leadership skills, and more.

As Marisa says, leadership is not a title, it’s an action. The skills of leadership are applicable no matter what your role or business.

What is Leadership?

– Jess: Making decisions, whether they starts with your heart, gut, or brain

– Monique: Being a healthy example

– Marissa: A process of radical self-inquiry

Goals 

– Jess: Take 10 days – 2 5-day weeks – and pick something to notice about yourself/what challenges are you facing; find the patterns and see what solutions you can try to create a different outcome

– Monique: Share a gap that you have with someone that you trust; it brings awareness and helps you figure out how to improve it

– Marisa: Develop a pause practice. Create time for rest, even if it’s only for a few minutes a day

Final Thoughts

– Monique: This conversation has been the definition of a supportive environment. Find your support system

– Marisa: Leadership is a human experience

– Jess: It’s risky to do these things – leadership and self reflection takes courage and boldness – it’s time to normalize these conversations
