In this episode of The Business Simplicity Podcast, host Chris Parker engages in a thought-provoking conversation with Didier Marlier, partner at the Enablers Network. Didier is an advisor to business leaders and a specialist in navigating the Disruption Economy. Together, they explore the concept of “leading from love,” inspired by the teachings of Rumi and ancient philosophies like Aristotle's logos, ethos, and pathos. In a world where rapid change is the only constant, Didier shares how love, combined with intellectual rigor, ethical behavior, and emotional depth, can be a powerful force in leadership. The discussion is anchored in the Rumi quote, “Be certain that in the religion of Love there are no believers and unbelievers. Love embraces all.” Didier and Chris reflect on the role of love in creating psychological safety, fostering innovation, and building resilient organizations. Didier explains that leading from love does not mean leading with weakness or avoidance; rather, it’s about embracing a mindset of openness, compassion, and courage to create a culture where people feel valued and motivated to give their best. Didier Marlier’s professional purpose is to support business leaders in challenging the orthodoxies they hold about their industries, particularly as they prepare their people and organizations for the demands of the Disruption Economy. With a diverse background as a blogger, author, board advisor, consultant, executive coach, professor, and agent-provocateur, Didier advises leaders on how to intellectually compel and emotionally engage their teams in large-scale transformations. His approach is grounded in logos (intellect), ethos (behaviors), and pathos (emotions), helping leaders create a balanced strategy that connects with both the minds and hearts of their people.
