What if the key to becoming a bold, breakthrough leader isn’t solving problems—but creating them?
In this powerhouse episode of Shedding the Corporate Bitch, host Bernadette Boas sits down with Ted Santos, CEO of Turnaround Investment Partners, to deliver a radical shift in how corporate professionals approach leadership.
Ted shares his personal transformation—from witnessing his mother run on two broken legs to leading organizations through chaos—and reveals the Leadership Disruptor’s Playbook that challenges conventional management at every level.
In this episode, you’ll discover:
- Why the best leaders create problems to fuel innovation
- How to “coach up” your team—even when they’re not ready
- The importance of delegating strategically to free your calendar
- How to lead through chaos using a breakthrough mindset
- Why most leaders operate from blind spots—and how to eliminate them
- How personal disruption can unlock your professional superpower
If you’re an executive, team leader, HR partner, or high-performing professional ready to ignite real change and stop managing from the middle, this episode will give you the mindset, tools, and courage to lead differently.
Don’t just solve problems. Be the problem creator your company needs.
