Coaching Founders and Leaders the Right Way
In this episode of The Meta-Cast, Josh Anderson and Bob Galen dive deep into the challenge of coaching leaders and teams effectively. They explore the balance between coaching individuals versus coaching the system, sharing real-world examples of how leadership presence (or over-presence) can either empower or stifle teams. Josh reflects on a time when Bob challenged him to step back as a leader, and together they discuss how situational awareness plays a critical role in leadership effectiveness. If you're struggling with how to guide your teams without micromanaging or if you’re unsure when to lean in or step back, this episode is packed with insights to help you navigate those tough leadership decisions.
