In this episode, I reflect on something sparked by my son's athlete review and how the four part athlete development model mirrors the gaps we often leave in our own leadership growth.
We are brilliant at focusing on skills, outcomes and delivery, but far less disciplined when it comes to the mental and emotional fitness that actually keeps us performing well.
I share my own experiences with therapy, coaching, supervision and mentoring, along with the very human moments that nudged me towards each.
No single method solves everything, but a thoughtful mix creates the resilience and clarity we need for sustainable leadership. This is about choosing not to leave your psychological development to chance.
Highlights:
