Intro and Five Leadership Journeys That Ignite Your Why

Feeling stuck in leadership roles that don’t feel like yours? Craving a way to lead that’s real, powerful, and purpose-driven? But most important, feeling YOU?

In this inaugural episode of Leading with Purpose, Julio Pompeu guides you through five deeply human leadership stories that go beyond theory and speak to your heart. Through personal memories—internships at Siemens, a small business job under Henrique, and a difficult plant closure in Mexico—you’ll discover:

• Trait Leadership through Marcus: learning how calm, quiet presence can lead a group by simply listening.
• Transformational Leadership with Coach Valéria: reigniting your belief in the impact and meaning behind your work.
• Servant Leadership from Henrique: humility, compassion, and the power of leading by lifting others up.
• Situational Leadership under engineer Washington: knowing when to step in, when to stand by, and when to step aside.
• Authentic Leadership on a Mexican plant floor: how telling the truth—even when it hurts—can build real trust and integrity.

🧭 What You’ll Gain (I hope :-)):

• Practical examples of how each leadership style showed up in real moments—and how they can appear in your life.
• Tools and prompts to start discovering your authentic leadership style.
• Motivation to lead not just with tactics—but with courage, empathy, and impact.

🔥 Why You Can’t Miss This:

This isn't theory. It's raw. It's honest. It's a invitation to lean into being the kind of leader who is real not just from role "pattern". By the end, I hope it triggers a light on you and make you feel ready for more.
