184. Level Up Your Leadership (with Deborah Naish) – Part One In this episode of the Visibility Factor podcast, host Susan M Barber interviews Deborah Naish, an author and former corporate leader, about her book 'Level Up Your Leadership.' They discuss the importance of inner work for leaders, the essence of leadership beyond skill sets, and the need for self-discovery. Deborah shares her leadership model, which emphasizes continuous practice and reflection, and introduces concepts to help leaders navigate challenges and foster growth. In this conversation, they explore various themes related to personal and professional growth, emphasizing the importance of a growth mindset, emotional intelligence, and effective communication. The dialogue also highlights the challenges of reactivity and the need for self-awareness in navigating interpersonal dynamics, ultimately encouraging listeners to embrace continuous learning and reflection. takeaways Leadership is about who we are being, not just what we do. Successful leaders must trust themselves and embrace discomfort. Practicing leadership skills is essential for building confidence. Reflection is crucial in the busy world of leadership. Resistance is a signal for growth, not a stop sign. Learning involves a cycle of practice and facing obstacles. A growth mindset recognizes that learning is a journey without a finish line. Judgments and reactions can trap us in negative cycles. Curiosity can transform our responses to challenges.
