Be A Leader Worth Following - Part 1

In today’s podcast, we excitedly welcome our guest, Tim Spiker, the author of “The Only Leaders Worth Following.” Tim takes us through how his research landed on two key competencies that are paramount in being a good leader.  You might think you have a good guess or two but like Tim, you’ll be surprised at where the research landed. It doesn’t matter so much about what you do, it’s about who you are. If your team finds you trustworthy, their engagement increases tremendously. And engagement impacts results. So, what makes you trustworthy as a leader? Listen in today and discover the answer and how you can develop those leadership qualities. Trust us, this is so worth the investment of your time.  At the Grounding and Growing Leadership podcast, we believe that everyone is a leader and that leadership starts with you. Join Tara Gronhovd, Gallup Certified Clifton Strengths Coach and e2Grow High Performing Team Coach, and Pamela Nelson, Certified Leadership Coach, Counselor and Spiritual Director, as we navigate conversations to grow you and your teams on your leadership journeys. CliftonStrengths (aka Strengthsfinder) is an assessment that is based on positive psychology and measures core motivations. It’s an extremely powerful tool for personal and professional development as well as improving team dynamics. You will hear us reference Strengths frequently in our podcasts. If you are interested in learning more and taking the CliftonStrengths assessment for you or your team, please reach out to [email protected]. Comments or questions about this episode?
