Promoting Your Highest Performer can Backfire

Tuesday, January 13, 2026 • Duration 30:28

When your team is running hard and still burning out, the answer is rarely “work harder.” It is usually “lead better.”

In this episode, I sit down with Kurt Uhlir to unpack what he calls multiplying leaders and why it is one of the most powerful strategies to fight burnout and boost performance. Kurt explains why the best leaders are often not the top individual performers, but the people who see how all the pieces fit together and know how to coach others to succeed.

We talk about why promoting your highest performer can backfire, how to spot “quiet leaders” on your team, and what it really looks like to build a leadership pipeline that protects people from burnout rather than driving them into it. If you care about burnout, leadership, coaching, performance, and team dynamics, this conversation will give you language and tools you can use right away.

Build the Perfect Team - Avoid Burnout

Season 1 · Episode 17

Friday, December 26, 2025 • Duration 20:13

In this episode, Loic Potjes and I unpack a powerful truth:

you will never build a perfect leader – but you can build a perfect team.

Join my free Leadership Reset Community here

Loic shares how real leadership starts with humility, owning where you are strong, where you are “crap” (in his words), and then making the tough calls about who belongs in the room. When leaders build teams around complementary competencies and mindsets, the organization starts to move with flow instead of friction.

Why chasing the “perfect individual” kills team performance
How humility and self-awareness unlock better team building
The role of competencies and mindset in designing a high-performing team
Why leaders must sometimes make harsh decisions about team composition
How the right team becomes an engine that drives organizational flow.

If you’re a leader wrestling with team gaps, roles, and fit, this episode will challenge how you think about leadership, humility, and building a team that actually works.
