Leadership from the Balcony is designed for leaders to have a go-to source for leadership concepts they may not be aware of, but given some intentionality, it might broaden and change their leadership and potentially change their lives. Leaders’ lives are full and complex, and most don’t have adequate time to continue to develop their leadership competency, let alone keep up with all of the great research out there. Leadership from the Balcony is intended to give you enough information to inspire you to continue to develop, to entertain a new perspective, and to give some insights into where to focus that development and is delivered regularly with no more than a single drive into work to get through each episode.
