Louise Rönnerdahl (LinkedIn) executive coach and coach at Leader intelligence came on the podcast and spoke of the current trend towards dehumanisation. We spoke of the IQ the EQ and the SQ (spiritual intelligence) in the model Leader intelligence in Sweden is working with. As well as the intelligence of the body. The fact that a manager is both a manager and a leader and need to have competence in both. We also spoke about what it is we're afraid of and why it is, that for many of us, 'the worst' has already happened. This is a deepdive into the new paradigm of leadership. Enjoy! Host: Amit Paul.

Josephine Sundqvist the Secretary-General – CEO of LM International (Läkarmissionen) came on the podcast. We explored development and the importance of partnership.

Why it might be the right ove for companies as well to stop thinking of profits as the end and instead see it as a means for something greater. We also speak of faith and leadership and the importance of hope. As well as what it means to have keep a gaze oriented towards the potential while not wavering from the (sometimes) harsh reality as it is. This is a truly wonderful conversation. Enjoy!
