    In this episode of The Dr. Ginny Show, Dr. Ginny Baro sits down with Aleta Maxwell, leadership coach and best selling author of Uplifting Leaders, to explore what quietly slows leaders and teams down, even when performance looks fine on the surface. Their conversation focuses on how blind spots form as roles grow, why leadership development cannot be treated as interchangeable, and how trust, feedback, and decision making shift when leaders build deeper self awareness. Together, they name what many senior leaders sense but struggle to articulate, and why ignoring it comes at a real cost. This episode is for leaders and organizations navigating pressure, complexity, and rising expectations, and asking whether their current leadership development approach is truly fit for the level of work required. What listeners gain from this conversation: 💡 Clarity on the real consequence of neglecting leadership development 💡 A practical understanding of how the Enneagram builds self-awareness and trust 💡 Perspective on why feedback breaks down and how to improve it Grounded, honest, and practical, this conversation invites leaders to see what they may have been missing, and consider what becomes possible when they do.

    Episode 246: What You Need to Know About Leadership at the Top

    Leadership at the top rarely breaks down because of a lack of vision or effort. More often, it slows when experienced leaders hold strong perspectives while conditions around them quietly shift. In What You Need to Know About Leadership at the Top, Dr. Ginny reflects on a decade-long leadership journey that resurfaced while preparing for her TEDx talk.  That experience opens a grounded conversation about judgment, timing, and alignment, and how senior leaders navigate decisions when certainty gives way to complexity. Rather than offering quick answers, this episode invites leaders to examine how experience shapes decision making, where flexibility becomes essential, and what alignment truly requires at the executive level. In this episode, listeners will gain: A clearer lens on how leadership judgment evolves with experience and responsibility Insight into how timing and flexibility influence executive decision making Perspective on alignment challenges that often go unspoken at the top of organizations This episode is for senior leaders, executives, and leadership teams who are navigating change, carrying high levels of responsibility, and seeking greater clarity and alignment without oversimplifying complex realities.  Recommended resources: ⭐ If you enjoyed this content, subscribe to our podcast, rate it so others can find it, and share the episode with your trusted network.

    What’s changing right now isn’t the caliber of leaders. It’s the environment we’re leading in. 🧭 More complexity 🧭 Less margin for error 🧭 Decisions carrying second and third order consequences faster than most organizations can absorb This is why this conversation matters now.
