"There is a emotional and psychological weight of leading. It's heavy. If it was easy, everybody would do it. And we all have doubt and fear and pressure that we carry when we assume that mantle of leadership." Perry Maughmer
Leadership is a dynamic, relational journey that requires flexibility, empathy, and a deep understanding of emotional and psychological weight. Perry Maughmer explores how effective leadership isn't about rigid control but about embracing a phenomenological approach—focusing on connection, growth, and the lived experiences of both leaders and their teams.
Perry dissects the importance of adapting interactions to specific contexts and people, the value of a growth mindset, and the power of vulnerability and transparency in fostering authentic leadership.
Perry will guide you through understanding leadership as more than a title or hierarchy; it’s an active, evolving process that requires continuous exploration and reflection.
Uncover how you can draw out the inherent greatness in others, prioritize shared human experiences, and lead with compassion and authenticity.
