Build a Leadership Peer Group That Lasts, Ep 28 | Leslie Jones

Why do so many small groups either blow up or quietly fizzle out? If you want to build a leadership peer group that stays healthy, honest and useful over years, this conversation is for you. Leslie Jones built Spiral Method after watching communities break down without anyone understanding why, and she shares what she learned about guiding a group of 12 to 16 people over time.

In this conversation: - Why Leslie uses the words steward and guide instead of leader, and what that changes in a group - How co-created agreements, and grace when someone breaks them, keep a group rigorous without being rigid - What to do about the person who attends every meeting but is not really there - Why learning to receive builds more trust than always being the one who gives, and why young leaders should start a peer group early
