Leadership Beyond the Title

Author: TaSheena Braxton Mom, Executive Leadership & Team Coach

Leadership Beyond Title Podcast is hosted by TaSheena Braxton. This podcast is for Women of Color who are looking for different ways to lead without the burnout and without the politics that come with formal titles. This podcast aims to disrupt the industry standard that titles make leaders - because they don't. Making an impact, providing value and building and nurturing relationships do. I know what it means to not be considered a leader in the absence of a formal title and having to lead without authority to grow my visibility and influence. This podcast will delve into topics to help you go from untapped, unseen and underrepresented to building movements and leading beyond the title.

Episode 42
Wednesday, 15 October, 2025

📜 Summary In this conversation, TaSheena Braxton explores the intricate relationship between ego and leadership. She shares her personal journey of understanding how ego can hinder authentic leadership and emphasizes the importance of shifting from an ego-driven approach to a service-oriented leadership style. Through insights and practical advice, she encourages leaders to embrace vulnerability, redefine their beliefs about leadership, and prioritize the well-being of their teams over personal validation. 💎 Gems Ego can hinder authentic leadership. Leadership should focus on serving others. Mistakes are part of the learning process. Women in leadership face unique challenges. Visibility does not equate to safety. Ego is a protective element, not inherently bad. Shifting from ego to service requires self-reflection. Defining a personal leadership philosophy is crucial. Building trust is essential for effective leadership. Leadership is a collective effort, not a solo endeavor. 📖 Chapters 00:00 The Journey of Leadership Training 04:13 Understanding Ego in Leadership 10:39 The Impact of Ego on Performance 14:17 Signs of Leading from Ego 26:47 Shifting from Ego to Service 39:48 Embracing Servant Leadership Where to Find TaSheena Sign up for "A Seat At The Table," my Weekly Newsletter that empowers Women Of Color to build their own seats at the table.
