20. KELLY IRVING
from THE COURAGE TO LEAD INTERVIEW SERIES Hosted by ALLAN SICARD
Would you like to hear about a leader, who doesn’t consider themselves to be a leader? Would you like to hear about a leader who has created a community where people have the trust to share their deepest fears and vulnerabilities, with each other, and at the same time genuinely support and celebrate the successes of each person within the community when they succeed in doing something they did not think they were capable of doing? This is the story of Kelly Irving. Kelly has created the Expert Author Academy which consists predominantly of people who have never written a non fiction book before but because of Kelly’s support and the community she has created, all of these people go on to become authors, sharing their stories to the world. Some leadership gems throughout this interview We learn through osmosis by doing it. We have to get out of our comfort zone in order to push ourselves to ultimately better ourselves. Kelly doesn’t have all the answers but is testing and trying things within the community all of the time. Sometimes they work and sometimes they don’t. Success is an organic thing from working with people and listening to what their needs are. Rather than strive for perfection why don’t we improve 1% every day.
