Mike Kelly, a veteran of senior leadership roles at Michelin and Macy’s, now coaches business owners and managers through his advisory, Right Path Enterprises. His mission: to help leaders guide their organizations more effectively by first learning to lead themselves.
Unlike many experts, Mike believes that genuine influence begins with leading yourself. Investing in personal growth pays dividends at work, at home, and in the community, he says.
Mike is the author of Leaderfluence: Secrets of Leadership Essential to Effectively Leading Yourself and Positively Influencing Others.
Among the topics Mike discusses on this week’s episode are when to trust the data over your own instinct, how to keep top talent without paying more than you can afford, and why you should encourage your employees to take risks at work.
Mike also outlines seven priorities that will enable leaders to look back with confidence, knowing they stayed aligned with what matters most to them.
His approach delivers a double benefit: leaders grow as individuals while becoming more effective and inspiring managers.
Monday Morning Radio is hosted by the father-son duo of Dean and Maxwell Rotbart.
