Unlock the Next Level of Your Leadership – Dr. Ben Redmond

Dr. Ben Redmond, executive coach, speaker, author, and COO of Five Capitals [https://fivecapitals.net/], shares joins hosts Brad McDonald and Taylor Jessup to share skills that unlock the next level of leadership. He explains how it begins with self-leadership, the importance of discerning the difference between urgent and important, and why the most important question for a leader is "when?"  Beyond tactics, Ben challenges leaders to step back and ask foundational questions: What life am I trying to build—and how does leadership fit into that? And how am I influencing, impacting, and leading the people on my team? Whether you're an emerging or seasoned leader, this conversation offers practical wisdom for leading at the next level.
