Why Great Leaders Miss Blind Spots and How to Fix Them
Season 2 · Episode 1
mardi 6 janvier 2026 • Duration 54:44
This episode digs into the DISC styles in a way that feels honest, practical, and eye-opening. Jeff Sigel expands on the basic understanding of the DISC assessment to show each style reacts in a crisis and why some leaders rush toward action while others protect the peace. It is a simple example that reveals a lot about what drives us and what blinds us.
We talk about the moments when our instincts help us and the moments when they get in the way. You will hear how assumptions create stress, how agreements create clarity, and how small shifts in awareness can change the way you lead your team. If you want leadership to feel more intentional and less overwhelming, this conversation will give you clarity you can feel and use right away.
