393. Leading at the right level (and why it's actually three levels) [Minisode]

from The Inner Chief · host Greg Layton

"To be highly effective and be a true Chief, you actually have to work at three levels: your level, the level below you and the level above you." Chief, in today's Minisode I walk you through the concept of leading at the right level, and why it's so crucial to building a track record that will supercharge your career progression. One of the conversations I have regularly with Heads of Talent, Heads of HR and CEOs is whether someone is really operating at the level their role requires. Understanding these levels will also help you build high-performance teams because you can become much clearer about what level of leader a particular role - and therefore the business - actually needs. 🎧👉 chiefmaker.com/393 👂 JOIN THE WAITLIST FOR THE MOST PRACTICAL LEADERSHIP & EXECUTIVE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM ON THE MARKET (NPS: 91): chiefmaker.com/minimba  In this Minisode, I'll break down for you: ✅ How the 6 Levels of Leadership change your work, accountability and time horizon ✅ Why high-value leaders operate at their level, plus the levels above and below, and ✅ How to stop working in the weeds and build evidence of your leadership track record.
