Three Leadership Lessons from Ted Lasso

“The TV character Ted Lasso is a wonderful example of high-functioning leadership, and how it creates success in two important dimensions,” explains Heather Marasse, Managing Partner, Trilogy Effect. “He’s effective on the quantitative side in that he coaches his team to start winning games.  He’s effective on the qualitative side too because everyone surrounding him becomes happier, emotionally healthier and more successful overall.” 

In this episode of the Being Human is Good For Business podcast Heather Marasse and host Sherrilynne Starkie discuss the popular TV show Ted Lasso, winner of the 2021 Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Comedy Series.  The show is an examination of humanity and holds many lessons for leaders. 

In this podcast you’ll learn that: 

A great leader supports their team members’ personal and professional growth by letting them take the lead, while also providing a soft place to land should things go wrong.   

Good leaders prioritize their relationships with people and bring emotional integrity to their interactions. 

It’s impossible to overstate the importance of both humility and vulnerability in great leadership. Developing both are the key in leading teams to achieve amazing things.
