53 John Baldoni, Coach and Author: Grace Under Pressure - Humanity, Humility and Vulnerability in Leadership

Today’s guest on The Unlock Moment is John Baldoni, renowned US coach, keynote speaker and the author of no less than 16 books translated into 10 languages. He hosts the ‘Grace Under Pressure’ interview series on LinkedIn Live, and famously integrates piano improvisations into his keynotes – now that’s definitely a love we share.Thinkers 360 has named John a Top 10 Thought Leader for both Leadership and Management. Global Gurus ranks John a Top 15 global leadership expert. In 2021, the International Federation of Learning and Development named John a World-Class Mentor and named him to its Hall of Fame.John is also a member of the renowned 100 Coaches, founded by Marshall Goldsmith – if you’ve been listening for a while then you have enjoyed hearing from a number of this elite group of coaches, with more recording in the coming months.John’s previous books include Grace Notes: Leading in an Upside-Down World; GRACE: A Leader’s Guide to a Better Us; MOXIE: The Secret to Bold and Gutsy Leadership; Lead with Purpose; Lead Your Boss; and The Leader’s Pocket Guide.  His new book Grace Under Pressure: Leading Through Change and Crisis is out at the start of April and focuses on three things leaders need to do when change and adversity strike.After all of that, what John doesn’t know about managing and leading through change and crisis surely isn’t worth knowing. I’m looking forward to hearing more about the journey that shaped him and the Unlock Moments of remarkable clarity he experienced along the way. And I’m hoping that you, my listener, will find a path to your own Unlock Moment through something you hear in this conversation.--John Baldoni: https://www.johnbaldoni.com/Grace Under Pressure: https://www.johnbaldoni.com/books/ The Unlock Moment is hosted by Dr Gary Crotaz, PhD — master interviewer, executive coach and author.
