There are plenty of leadership how-to books, filled with advice such as "Just do this to get ahead!" Lots of books tell you how to become a leader, this book tells you how to stay successful once you've reached a leadership role.
This episode and today's book helps aspiring, early-stage, and experienced leaders alike answer a critical question: "How will I use my leadership power?"
Being a good leader doesn't require being a bad person, and if you know what to look out for, you can keep your ego and hubris in check and become (and stay) a leader who is effective, successful, and good.
We welcome Bill Treasurer, the author of: "The Leadership Killer: Reclaiming Humility in an Age of Arrogance."

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
