Authentic Leadership for Everyday People is the podcast where we investigate the connection between effective leadership and authenticity. If you are looking for inspiration and tips on how to become a better leader by being your true self, you are in the right place. The word authenticity is overused and can feel abstract, but when you look at its true meaning, it has a very practical and pretty clear cut application to leadership. Authentic means “the true self”. Authentic leaders clearly articulate their core values, and use them to guide every action they take. This clarity brings effectiveness, confidence and the ability to be vulnerable. In this interview based show, guests open up about how they discovered and developed their core principles and built a more successful and fulfilled life by being consistent with their values. Filled with candid moments and practical advice, Authentic Leadership for Everyday People is for everyone who wants to become a better leader and a better, more fulfilled human.

Speak Up And Dribble - Authentic Leadership and Corporate Advocacy
When the line between corporate power and societal responsibility blurs, leaders must navigate the terrain with both integrity and strategic insight. Join me, Dino Cattaneo, as we traverse the complex world of leadership in the context of corporate social responsibility.
Unpack the history of businesses influencing politics, the essential nature of accountability, and why actions like those of Disney, Bud Light and Goya have sparked such intense debate. In a time where every silence and statement is amplified, we scrutinize the delicate balance companies must strike between being authentic and protecting their brand.
We talk about corporate advocacy, the current context, some of the pitfalls to avoid and we offer a set of questions and a framework that leaders can use to decide whether and how to engage in specific topics.

Customer Reviews
Insights for more modest audiences...
What I love about Authentic Leadership is that the pods feature people that are more reasonably comparable to common leaders in business. While it’s nice to also listen to podcasts featuring Elon Musk, Sam Altman, Arnold Schwarzenegger (sp?), Bob Iger and other elite executives/luminaries, they are really NOT relatable to 99.9% of listeners. These people had experiences, good fortune, opportunity and success that is on a scale unfathomable, and honestly irrelevant to most humans. That means that their resources, perspectives and interactions are NOT likely to be helpful nor applicable. This podcast helps bridge the gap by highlighting the experiences of moderately successful, “normal human beings” that provides insights and experiences to learn from for the rest of us.
Great show!
This podcast explores the nuances and principles of leadership across various domains, showcasing interviews with leaders from different fields such as higher education, entrepreneurial partnerships, and creative industries. It not only sheds light on the multifaceted nature of leadership but also on how authenticity plays a crucial role in effective leadership. Through engaging discussions and real-world insights, this podcast encourages its listeners to reflect on their own leadership styles and the impact it has on their personal and professional lives.

We love Dino!
