Working on Purpose

Whether you’re a seasoned leader or just getting started in the role, there’s a good bet there are aspects of your leadership that can be strengthened when you do the hard work on yourself. After all, an unexamined life is simply not worth following and at its worst can be incredibly destructive to the followers left in their wake. In this episode with 20-year leadership veteran Tim Spiker, we learn about effective leadership that is “inwardly sound” and “others focused.” Tim founded Aperio, which is a Latin word, meaning to uncover, lay bare, make clear, or reveal, and that’s the approach he takes to helping leaders learn about themselves and become effective in their role.
