E502 | Manage Yourself to Lead Others with Margaret C. Andrews
Friday, 14 November, 2025
In this thought-provoking episode of the Ellevate Podcast, host Ally McDonald sits down with leadership expert, Harvard instructor, and MYLO Center founder Margaret C. Andrews for an honest, insightful conversation about what it truly means to lead. Drawing from her decades of research, teaching, and executive experience, Margaret shares the deeply personal origin story behind her new book, Managing Yourself to Lead Others—a moment when blunt feedback forced her to confront her own blind spots and reshape the way she showed up as a leader.Together, Ally and Margaret explore the often-overlooked foundation of great leadership: understanding and managing yourself. They discuss why so many high performers struggle with self-awareness, how intention and behavior can clash, and why emotions—far from being obstacles—are critical data that inform our decisions and our impact on others. Through compelling examples from Margaret’s work with leaders around the world, they unpack the patterns, challenges, and transformative shifts that help people bridge the gap between who they think they are and how others experience them.This episode is rich with reflection, psychology, and practical wisdom. Whether you’re an emerging leader or a seasoned executive, Margaret’s insights will challenge you to pause, look inward, and consider how mastering yourself is the key to elevating not just your work—but everyone around you.Manage Yourself to Lead Others: Why Great Leadership Begins with Self-Understanding By Margaret Andrews.
