John Spence - How to Be a Great and Empathetic Leader

In this episode, I speak with the extraordinary John Spence, an author, speaker, and executive coach recognized as one of the top business thought leaders and leadership development experts in the world. John has made a career out of simplifying and communicating very complex concepts (see his fantastic book, Awesomely Simple) and was named by the American Management Association as one of America’s Top 50 Leaders to Watch.

I&aposm seriously impressed by John&aposs work. Few thought leaders can recognize and articulate dysfunctional patterns and formulate functional solutions as capably as John. You will see that he does that brilliantly, both in discussing business and life.

Tune in to hear:

John&aposs take on facing new realities as a business owner in times of a sudden crisis with no real end dateHis thoughts on taming control by emphasizing what you can control and dismissing what you can&apostWhy feelings of safety, dignity, and purpose are key to retaining satisfied employees or followersHis tried-and-true blueprint for being a great leader, "a living example of what they hope their followers will one day become," based on competence, concern, and a healthy balance of IQ, EQ, and AQ.
