    252: What Smart Leaders Get Wrong About Talent and Growth with Ken Eslick

    “Hiring is broken because the best people are not applying.” That may be an executive recruiter’s perspective. Hear me out. In this episode of The Dr. Ginny Show, What Smart Leaders Get Wrong About Talent and Growth, Dr. Ginny Baro sits down with Ken Eslick, CEO of The Leaders Lab, who brings decades of experience helping organizations understand what it really takes to build strong leadership teams. Together, they talk about why the strongest talent is often already working somewhere else, why organizations can bring in strong talent and still hit a ceiling, and why leaders can step into bigger roles while still operating from the identity of the earlier one. They also discuss why AI cannot replace the human connection leadership requires, and why emotional intelligence, development, and clarity still matter. 🎙️ In this episode, listeners will: Understand how leaders think about talent at this level, whether they are hiring, building a team, or stepping into a new role Learn why strong talent alone does not automatically move a business forward Recognize how an identity gap can affect communication, trust, and leadership effectiveness after a promotion This episode is relevant for senior leaders, executive teams, and professionals thinking about growth, leadership capacity, and what it takes to move to the next level.

    Episode 250: How to Break Resilience Myths and Spring Forward with Russell Harvey

    We push through, take on more than we should, and keep moving even when something does not feel right. From the outside, that can look like leadership strength or resilience. Inside, it can feel very different. In How to Break Resilience Myths and Spring Forward with Russell Harvey, I sit down with leadership coach Russell Harvey for a thoughtful conversation about what resilience really means for leaders and executive teams.  Together, they challenge the myths many leaders have learned to accept, especially the idea that resilience means pushing harder, carrying more, and keeping it all moving no matter what. Through stories, reflection, and practical insight, this conversation helps you look at resilience, leadership energy, and over-functioning through a different lens. It also brings forward the role of self-awareness, the cost of staying in constant motion, and the kind of pause that can help leaders regain perspective before pressure starts affecting their confidence, decisions, and team impact. In this episode, listeners will: Gain a clearer and more practical way to think about resilience in leadership Recognize patterns that may be draining energy, weakening perspective, or pulling them into over-functioning Reflect on how greater awareness can strengthen leadership impact, team experience, and decision making About Russell Harvey Russell Harvey is a Leadership Coach and Facilitator, Public Speaker, Managing Director, NED, Podcaster, and Radio Host. With over 20 years of experience in learning, leadership, and organizational development, he has specialized in resilience and VUCA for the past 18 years.

    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.
