From Natural Leader to Peak Performer with Shanna Weber

from The Fitness of Business with Leslie Boyce · host Leslie Boyce, MBA

There's a unique challenge in partner workouts. You want to push each other, but you can't go so hard that one person breaks down. You have to communicate, adjust on the fly, and trust that your partner will show up for their part while you handle yours. Building a team works exactly the same way — and just like in training, natural talent is only the starting point.My guest today, Shanna Weber, is the CEO of Prima Consulting and spent over 20 years in the male-dominated world of finance learning what it actually means to lead — not manage, lead. In this conversation we get into the difference between being a natural leader and a strategic one, why micromanaging is just managing in disguise, how generational differences are reshaping what effective leadership looks like, and why the best thing you can do for your team is change yourself first. If you've ever wondered why things don't get done the way you'd do them — this one's for you.Connect with Shanna: 🌐 Website: swprima.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/shanna-weber/🔗 Stay ConnectedIf this episode resonated and you want more conversations about business, leadership, movement, and sustainable success, you can find me here:🌐 Website: https://www.leslieboyce.com📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/leslieboyce_✉️ Email: [email protected]📝 Substack: https://leslieboyce.substack.comI share weekly insights, behind-the-scenes reflections, and resources for business owners who want to grow without burning out.
