Authentic Leadership and Critical Communication Skills The Workplace Communication Podcast

    • Management

Whether or not we want to admit it, for many of us, leadership has been defined by authority and control.


However, now is the time to step into the future of leadership – one where effective leadership is defined by embarking on a journey of self-discovery. One that enables you to connect deeply with yourself and your team, while also guiding others.


According to Dan Owolabi, Founding Executive Director of Branches Worldwide, an authentic leader isn't someone who bosses others around, but rather someone who remains true to themselves while serving others in a similar capacity.


With over two decades of leadership development experience across multiple continents, Dan brings a wealth of wisdom and practical insights to the table. On this episode of The Workplace Communication Podcast, Dan and I explore how to authenticity, cultivate effective communication, and leverage strategic transparency with your team members.


It’s high time we ditch the rulebook and discover how being yourself can transform your leadership style and supercharge your team's success!

Engaging in active listening to foster better understanding and connection


Embracing vulnerability as a strength to build trust and authenticity within your team
