Emotional Intelligence in Action: Moving from Self-Awareness to Team Ownership with Sharon Justice

What this episode covers

Are you leading your team by simply telling them what to do, or are you actively cultivating a culture where they take true agency and ownership?Have you ever found yourself caught in the trap of people-pleasing, sacrificing your own hard boundaries just to avoid perceived conflict?What if the secret to building deep trust and authentic connection with your people started with a willingness to show up with radical vulnerability?In this episode of Authentic Voice Leadership, Dr. Leslie Davis sits down with Sharon Justice, the founder of Justice Leadership and a 40-year veteran on the people side of business. Together, they pull back the curtain on what it practically takes to bridge the leadership gap and step into excellent, high-impact authority.Sharon breaks down her signature CALG framework (Clarity, Alignment, Leadership, Growth) and shares why a leader's ultimate superpower is asking open-ended, engaging questions rather than executing top-down commands. Dive into a rich conversation about the true difference between vulnerability and weakness, how to intentionally design an organizational culture that rewards risk-taking, and the concrete steps required to scale your emotional intelligence from individual self-awareness all the way to full team ownership.Resources and Links MentionedDiscover Your Leadership Gap: Take the free assessment and grab your customized Leadership Gap Scorecard right at the top of the page at Justice Leadership.Connect with Sharon Justice: Stay updated with her weekly newsletter, professional insights, and free corporate resources on LinkedIn or via Justice Leadership.Dr. Leslie’s Book: Learn how to stay solid and immovable in who you are across every professional season with Anchored in the Wilderness.Connecting with You and Next StepsContact: [email protected]: Subscribe and listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your favorite streaming app.Connect: Join our free network of powerhouse, spirit-led leaders at the Authentic Voice Leadership Community.Instagram: @lesliebaylis
