Mini-Workshop: Leading With Influence

What this episode covers

Being a leader isn’t always about your job title. It’s about the ability to get people to follow you. Sometimes that’s the CEO and sometimes that’s the assistant. In this coffee chat I share a different approach to leadership, one that isn’t rooted in titles or authority, but in how you show up, how you listen, and how you create impact with intention. I’ve seen firsthand that influence isn’t about pushing your ideas or being the loudest voice. It’s about building trust, asking better questions, and following through in ways that make people want to engage and move forward with you. In this episode, you’ll learn: - Why influence has less to do with authority, and more to do with how you show up - Simple ways to build trust and credibility with your team - What it means to think like an owner (even if you’re not one) - How to lead in a way that people naturally want to follow If you’ve ever felt like you need a title to lead, or you’ve been frustrated by leaders who rely on one, this episode is for you. You don’t need authority to have influence. You just need the right mindset and habits. Whether you’re leading a team, building something of your own, or just ready to show up differently at work, this chat is sure to shift how you think about influence.
