What Leaders Need Now: Lead Together | Episode 17

A few months ago a previous podcast guest recommended a book to me and suggested I talk to the author. Thank you, Dr. Cascario! Psychology researcher and author, Tania Luna, wrote a very special book on power, Lead Together: Stop Squirreling Away Power and Build a Better Team. Her approach to the bold topic of power within teams was fascinating and unexpected. As I said in my podcast, “Her book will draw you in, make you smile, and, possibly, even make you laugh out loud. But make no mistake, the insights are profound!” Her “story” needs to be shared far and wide and will encourage you to “stop hoarding your nuts” and share your leadership power with others. https://youtu.be/ylN7ShYTJ9k
