Connected, Considered Leadership | Mark Bilton with Grant Herbert
Many leaders work hard and care deeply, yet still feel stuck dealing with the same people issues. Miscommunication, emotional reactions, and tension in the team can build up quietly, until trust starts to slip and leadership feels heavier than it should.
In this Lead Well Live Well episode, I sit down with Grant Herbert, Founder and Global Managing Partner of People Builders. Grant is a multi-award-winning leadership coach who helps leaders apply emotional intelligence, social intelligence, and applied neuroscience in practical, real-world ways.
