The Courageous Leaders Podcast
Are You a Busy Leader or an Effective Leader?
Have we forgotten how to think as leaders?
This is the question I’ve been exploring in nearly every coaching session lately.
In this solo episode, I’m diving into why deep thinking has gone missing in modern leadership and how the addiction to busyness is holding us and our teams back. If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed or constantly relied upon, this episode is your call to reset.
We Cover:
01:05 – What constant busyness is really costing you
01:45 – Reacting ≠ Leading: Where we’re getting it wrong
02:30 – Why stillness feels uncomfortable (but it’s vital)
02:59 – Tip 1: Embrace the “not busy” leader mindset
03:54 – Tip 2: Drive your team to think for themselves
04:36 – Tip 3: Block thinking time and protect it
05:35 – Who’s steering the ship if you’re not thinking?
06:21 – Final challenge: Redefine what leading looks like
