info_outlineIn episode 4, I lecture on chapter 4 of the 9th edition of Peter G. Northouse's "Leadership: Theory and Practice." During the segment, I discuss behavioral approaches to studying leadership, the DISC behavioral profile, and highlight the Blake-Mouton Leadership Grid.
During the Living Leadership segment I was joined by Chris Dial, head men's basketball coach at Our Lady of the Lake University (@OLLUSaints) and President of The Basketball Embassy (@bballembassy). Chris has a long career as an educator, basketball coach at all levels (including long stints with the Romanian Basketball Federation and the Kosovo Basketball Federation), and international diplomat.
In the interview, Chris talks about why great leaders exhibit humility, adaptability, and that they intentionally listen with an aim to learn. He speaks at length about why inclusive language, a collaborative philosophy, and the ability to "read the room" are so important if leaders want to motivate and influence those they're wanting to lead. And I love how he highlights the dynamic nature of leadership: "When the group you're trying to lead is ever-changing, ever-evolving, so must your leadership style."
There's so much leadership gold in the episode. Enjoy!
