Leading Beyond Any Title - Lead by Lifting: Developing Others Through Relational Leadership

Tuesday, October 28, 2025 • Duration 44:08

If leadership is anything, it’s personal.

Relational leadership isn’t about checking in, it’s about tuning in. It’s about building trust, earning influence, and developing people not numbers. That kind of leadership builds social capital, deep, resilient trust that makes performance sustainable.

But here’s the truth: When you lead this way, you’ll clash with systems that see humans as resources. You’ll frustrate those chasing quarterly wins while you're focused on long-term growth. You’ll challenge the belief that fear drives results, because you know safety, not silence, is what moves people forward.

If you believe leadership is about people, not power, this one’s for you.

Leading Beyond Any Title – The Resilient Leader

Tuesday, October 14, 2025 • Duration 01:33:57

Leadership takes more than drive, it takes emotional endurance.

In today’s high-pressure environments, leaders are expected to stay steady, make smart decisions, and support other, often without pausing to recharge themselves. But emotional strength doesn’t come from pushing through alone.

It comes from knowing how to reset, recover, and rise again. In this discussion, Jennie and Craig explore the vital connection between emotion and performance.

You’ll learn how to recognize your limits, manage stress in the moment, and build the long-term emotional resilience that leadership demands.

Leading Beyond Any Title – Leading Through Chaos

Monday, September 29, 2025 • Duration 01:33:57

In a world where disruption is constant, leaders can’t afford to wait for clarity, they must create it.

Whether you’re navigating rapid change, shifting priorities, or competing demands, adaptive leadership is the skill that separates those who cope from those who lead. It’s not about reacting faster, it’s about responding smarter.

In this session, Jennie and Craig will explore what it means to lead intentionally in the unknown. You’ll learn how to stay grounded, communicate clearly, and build momentum, even when the path is murky.

If you’re not learning to lead through chaos, you’re falling behind.

Monday, June 9, 2025 • Duration 40:33

As a leader, your 1:1 time with your team members might be the most meaningful conversations you have all week. These moments offer a unique opportunity to truly see, hear, and value your people. Yet, too often, 1:1 meetings are treated as just another calendar event—easily moved, postponed, or overlooked.
