To Make It in a Post-Pandemic World, Leaders Need One Thing: Humility

Marilyn Gist, an expert on leader development, and author of “The Extraordinary Power of Leader Humility: Thriving Organizations—Great Results” joins Enterprise Radio.

This episode of Enterprise Radio is in association with the Author Channel.

Listen to host Eric Dye & guest Marilyn Gist discuss the following:

  1. What inspired you to write this book? What led you to believe it is important?
  2. Isn’t “leader humility” a weakness?  It seems inconsistent with strong leadership and getting the work done.
  3. What is dignity?  Why does this matter when leaders have so many important things to focus on?
  4. When starting to work with a team, how does humility set a leader up for success or failure?
  5. Over time, what exactly do leaders need to say or do to show regard for others’ dignity?
  6. Leaders can have a lot of different styles. Do you think leader humility has value beyond business?  Is it relevant for government or nonprofits?
