What Managers Get Wrong About Leadership In Regulated Industries with Matthew Price

There is a big difference between management and leadership.And that distinction could mean the difference between an empowered, engaged team that is able to stay agile and move an organization forward, and one that is disengaged, and unable to adapt to change.In this episode of the Searching Smarter podcast, we’re joined by Matthew Price, author of How-to IQ and Founder of MKP Strategies, to explore the difference between management and leadership and the dangers of an overly constricted leadership style. Matthew shares a refreshingly open-minded approach to leadership, showing how regulation and red tape can be used as a guide rather than a single lane, and why leaders who can delegate well, lead with empathy, and resist the urge to control are the ones who truly progress.Covered in this episode:0:00 - Intro1:42 - What’s the difference between leadership and management?4:15 - Why empathy is essential to modern leadership.7:06 - A 3-step process for delegation that actually empowers your people.7:37 - Why effective leaders need to let go of total control.9:07 - How professionals can spot (and survive) controlling leadership.10:43 - Leading well in highly-regulated industries such as financial sciences and services.13:23 - Navigating regulation without losing flexibility.15:22 - What causes overly-strict guard rails in an organization?16:14 - Using AI responsibly inside regulated industries.19:30 - Why hyper-control is dangerous and what to do instead.And more…Be sure to subscribe to the Selby Jennings’ Searching Smarter podcast on your favorite podcast platform, so you never miss an episode.LEARN MOREGet Matthew’s book - https://www.amazon.com/How-IQ-Principle-Based-Approach-Decisions/dp/1738330214 Selby Jennings - https://hubs.la/Q03qrs-70Phaidon International - https://hubs.la/Q03qsqrh0CONNECTJesse Skaff on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jesse-skaff-0783645b/ Matthew Price on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/matthew-price-mkp/LISTENSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/3BAUCsXbXiNqnfXR9jDG4k?si=4a75d55cf5a74d6eApple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/searching-smarter/id1770342621YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkk9RrybV10doAzoXuK5jYw
