How to Trust Yourself as a Leader and Lead From the Heart | Ed Schenkein

How do you trust yourself as a leader when ego and the need to have every answer keep getting in the way? Ed Schenkein shares how he moved from leading with intellect to leading from the heart in his late twenties, and what that shift taught him about how to trust yourself as a leader. Greg Aden and Ed talk about the mentors, coaches and simple habits that help leaders quiet the ego and believe in themselves.

In this conversation: - Why you do not have to know everything, only where to find the resources you need - What "leave a little on the table" means for negotiation, difficult conversations and doing the right thing - Ed's advice to emerging leaders: trust yourself, stay self aware, do your work, and be generous, respectful and kind - How curiosity, playfulness and good inquiry keep leaders growing
