"Transformation of any kind is rarely one insight, one coaching session, one workshop, or one conversation.” - Winnie da SilvaLeadership challenges are rarely just about what's happening on the surface. The issue that keeps resurfacing, the team dynamic that won't improve, or the frustration you can't seem to solve may actually be driven by something much deeper.In this episode, I share three real client stories from my executive coaching, leadership development, and team effectiveness work to show how lasting transformation happens when we uncover the stories, assumptions, leadership habits, and trust dynamics shaping our behavior and results.You'll hear me discuss:How the stories we tell ourselves influence the way we lead and the results we createWhy one leader's hidden assumptions were keeping him stuck and preventing real progressHow adaptive leadership helps us choose the right approach for the right person and situationWhat causes leaders to unintentionally overuse their preferred leadership styleWhy communicating your leadership intent can strengthen trust and improve team performanceHow trust grows when people move beyond assumptions and gain a deeper understanding of one anotherThe common thread connecting leadership challenges across individuals, teams, and organizationsResourcesWinnie da Silva on LinkedIn | On the Web | Substack | YouTube | Email - winnie@winnifred.org

In this episode I speak with Miguel Da Silva. Miguel is a radio DJ presenter and Shaman. Born in Portugal and growing up through the civil war, Miguel's childhood was far from easy. In his teenage years he sought escape through drugs and alcohol. After several failed relationships he moved to England. His love of music attracted him to pirate radio where he became a DJ presenter, something he still does to this day. His life experiences drew  him towards Shamanism, ancient beliefs connecting with nature and the universe.It's a moving account of one man's life and through adversity, he learnt to be resilient and  finally love himself once again.

“Adaptive leadership is about choosing the right leadership approach for the right people in the right situation.” - Winnie da SilvaSome leaders hold on too tightly. Others delegate too fast. In this episode, I break down the adaptive leadership framework I've used for years with everyone from first-time managers to CEOs, and explain why effective leadership is rarely about sticking to one style.I walk through the continuum of directing, collaborating, and delegating, and share how I decide which approach fits the person, the situation, and the moment.You'll hear me discuss:Why adaptive leadership is about choosing the right leadership approach for the right person and situationHow the leadership continuum shifts between directing, collaborating, and delegatingThe three things I evaluate before deciding how to lead someoneHow trust, risk tolerance, and leadership instincts shape leadership decisionsWhy clarity and direction can slowly turn into micromanagementHow collaboration and delegation build ownership, growth, and stronger decision-makingWhy great leaders constantly reassess and adapt instead of relying on one leadership styleResourcesWinnie da Silva on LinkedIn | On the Web | Substack | YouTube | Email - winnie@winnifred.org

“If we want better results, we have to examine the stories and assumptions driving our behavior.” - Winnie da SilvaSome leadership challenges don't start with strategy or communication, but rather they start with the stories we're telling ourselves. The assumptions running quietly in the background about who I am, who other people are, and how things work.In this episode, I explore how those internal narratives shape our behavior, influence our leadership, and ultimately impact the results we get. I also break down how changing the story can lead to completely different outcomes.You'll hear me discuss:How the stories we tell ourselves shape our behavior and resultsThe three types of stories that influence leadership decisions every dayWhy certain problems keep repeating until we challenge the assumptions underneath themHow stories about other people affect trust, collaboration, and conflictThe importance of catching ourselves in the moment and questioning our assumptionsWhy curiosity is far more productive than self-judgment when trying to grow as a leaderHow adopting a new story can create better behaviors and better outcomesResourcesWinnie da Silva on LinkedIn | On the Web | Substack | YouTube | Email - winnie@winnifred.org

“Leadership growth happens when we begin practicing new behaviors in the real world.” - Winnie da SilvaSome of the biggest leadership breakthroughs don't come from massive reinventions. They come from one small shift repeated consistently over time.In this episode, I'm digging into why so many leaders get stuck thinking about growth instead of actually practicing it and why tiny experiments might be one of the most powerful tools for real leadership development.You'll hear me discuss:Why leaders often get trapped thinking about growth instead of practicing new behaviorsHow tiny experiments reduce overwhelm and make meaningful change feel more achievableWhy confidence is usually built through action and repetition, not before itThe power of small, consistent leadership behaviors over dramatic transformationHow reflection frameworks like “plus, minus, next” help create sustainable growthWhat I learned from running my own public leadership experiment around strategic thinkingWhy experimentation, adaptability, and continuous learning are becoming essential leadership skills todayResourcesWinnie da Silva on LinkedIn | On the Web | Substack | YouTube | Email - winnie@winnifred.orgTiny Experiments in Leadership Thinking episode - December 2025

“Leadership at scale isn't about having all the answers—it's about drawing out other people's thinking.” - Winnie da SilvaWhy do so many leaders feel like they have to carry all the answers, and what is it actually costing them?In this episode, I unpack one of the most overlooked leadership tools: asking better questions. I share why constantly jumping in with solutions can quietly limit your team's thinking, and how shifting toward thoughtful, open-ended questions can completely change the way you lead. It doesn't mean stepping back or losing authority, but it does elevate the quality of conversations, decisions, and ownership across your team.You'll hear me discuss:Why having all the answers can actually hold your team backHow asking questions creates ownership instead of dependencyThe connection between inquiry and reducing defensivenessHow better questions uncover hidden risks, assumptions, and blind spotsWhy leaders who ask more questions tend to make stronger decisionsHow questions build trust and increase accountability across teamsSimple, real-world questions you can use in conversations starting todayResourcesWinnie da Silva on LinkedIn | On the Web | Substack | YouTube | Email - winnie@winnifred.orgExample Questions: Understanding someone's thinking“That's an interesting point. Tell me more about what you're thinking.”“When you say X, what does that mean to you?”“What would need to be true for this to work?”“What do you care most about in this situation?”Collaboration and partnership“How might we best partner together on this?”“What role would you like me to play here?”“What decision do you need from me today?”Feedback conversations“What feedback do you have for me?”“What's hard to tell me?”“What are we not talking about that we probably should be?”Vision and goals“If you and your team could only achieve one thing this year, what would it be?”“What challenge, if solved, would make the biggest difference?”“What are your top priorities and why?”Problem-solving and decision-making“What might be the root issue underneath this?”“What are we implicitly saying no to by saying yes?”“What data would change your mind?”

“The issue isn't the strength of the idea. It's whether it connects to what the other person cares about.” - Winnie da SilvaWhy do some ideas land instantly… while others just hang in the air, no matter how well you explain them?In this episode, I break down a simple but powerful leadership concept that can completely change how you influence others, especially when you don't have formal authority. I share how understanding what people truly care about (their “currency”) can shift conversations, build trust faster, and help your message actually stick.You'll hear me discuss:Why strong arguments alone don't guarantee influenceWhat “currency” really means and how it shows up in everyday leadershipHow to spot what someone values based on their behavior and prioritiesSimple ways to reframe your message so it connects and landsHow this applies to stakeholders, feedback, trust-building, and big conversationsWhy influence is less about pushing your point and more about aligning with what matters to othersResources Winnie da Silva on LinkedIn | On the Web | Substack | YouTube | Email - winnie@winnifred.org

“The goal isn't ideas—it's behavior change that drives business results.” - Winnie da SilvaWhy do so many leadership programs fall flat even when the content is solid? I've seen this play out time and time again over the past two decades. It's rarely about the quality of the program itself. It's about what's happening around it. In this episode, I break down the two factors that actually determine whether leadership development creates real, lasting change. I also share where things tend to go wrong.You'll hear me discuss:Why leadership development only works when both the leader and the organization are fully engagedThe mindset shifts I consistently see in leaders who grow the fastestWhat it really looks like to apply leadership development in real time (not just learn it)How organizational culture and senior leadership behavior can make or break development effortsWhy treating leadership development as a “check-the-box” exercise leads to poor resultsWhat needs to be in place for leadership growth to actually stick and drive business outcomesResourcesWinnie da Silva on LinkedIn | On the Web | Substack | YouTube | Email - winnie@winnifred.org

“In leadership, the visible problem is often just the symptom.” - Winnie da SilvaIs the problem you're trying to solve actually the real problem or just the most obvious one?In this episode, I unpack why so many leadership challenges don't get resolved the way we expect, and how quickly jumping to solutions can keep us stuck in the same cycles. I share a real client story and walk through how to slow down just enough to uncover what's really driving the issue, so you can create solutions that actually last.You'll hear me discuss:Why the visible problem is often just a symptom, not the root causeHow pressure and urgency push us into solving the wrong thingThe difference between surface issues and deeper organizational dynamicsA real example of how misalignment at the top created slow decision-makingThe role of trust, expectations, and avoided conversations in team challengesSimple questions I use to dig deeper and challenge my own assumptionsHow pausing, gathering input, and testing solutions leads to better outcomesResourcesWinnie da Silva on LinkedIn | On the Web | Substack | YouTube | Email - winnie@winnifred.org

Dateline New Haven: Violinist Maiani da Silva by WNHH Community Radio

“Coaching isn't remediation. It's acceleration.” - Winnie da SilvaIs executive coaching really just a last resort for struggling leaders… or is that completely missing the point? In this episode, I unpack one of the biggest myths around coaching and share what I actually see in my work with high-performing leaders. I explain why leadership coaching is about growth, not fixing, and why the right support at the right time can completely shift your leadership impact.You'll hear me discuss:Why coaching is often misunderstood as a performance fix instead of a growth acceleratorWhat really changes when a strong leader steps into a bigger, more complex roleHow blind spots show up even for high performers and how I help uncover themWhy reflection is something most leaders don't get enough of (and why it matters)How coaching creates space to think differently, test ideas, and navigate complexityThe difference between coaching and other tools like feedback, training, or performance managementA real example of how one leader expanded their impact by shifting how they influence and make decisionsResources Winnie da Silva on LinkedIn | On the Web | Substack | YouTube | Email - winnie@winnifred.org

“Most leadership problems aren't what they seem.” - Winnie da SilvaYou might think the issue in front of you is the real problem… but what if it's just the surface? This season, I'm shifting things a bit. Instead of longer guest conversations, I'm bringing you shorter, more focused episodes designed to help you think more clearly, challenge your assumptions, and take immediate action in your leadership. Because the truth is, most leadership challenges aren't as straightforward as they seem, and if we don't slow down and look deeper, we risk solving the wrong problem entirely.In this episode, I'm setting the stage for what's ahead and sharing why this shift matters, especially if you're navigating complex, messy, real-world leadership situations.You'll hear me discuss:Why many leadership problems are often misdiagnosed at first glanceWhat tends to sit beneath common challenges like performance issues or communication breakdownsHow unexamined assumptions and internal narratives can quietly shape your leadership effectivenessWhy solving only what's visible can lead you to miss the bigger issueThe idea that leadership isn't about fixing people, but about addressing root causesHow asking better questions can become your most powerful leadership toolWhat it looks like to adapt your leadership approach based on people and contextThe frameworks I use with clients to build trust, experiment, and lead more intentionallyHow this season is designed to give you practical, usable insights you can apply right awayResourcesWinnie da Silva on LinkedIn | On the Web | Substack | YouTube | Email - winnie@winnifred.org

“Real leadership work isn't about fixing people—it's about addressing root issues.” - Winnie da SilvaAre you stepping into bigger leadership… but still thinking and operating the same way?In this episode, I break down what it really takes to grow as a leader when the pressure, complexity, and expectations all level up. I share how I work with leaders and teams, the frameworks behind that work, and why lasting change comes from mindset shifts instead of quick fixes.You'll hear me discuss:Who I work with and the types of leadership transitions and challenges they faceWhy leadership is less about industry and more about mindset and peopleWhat executive coaching actually looks like and how it drives real resultsWhy leadership development must lead to behavior change, not just learningThe three core areas of my work: coaching, leadership development, and team effectivenessHow to tell if a team is truly effective (and what to look for)Why sustainable results come from addressing root causes, not quick fixesResourcesCelebrating 20 Years of Transformative Leadership EpisodeWinnie da Silva on LinkedIn | On the Web | Substack | YouTube | Email - winnie@winnifred.org

Our parade of Best Picture winners continues with Billy Wilder's The Lost Weekend - a harrowing portrayal of alcoholism that also netted a Best Actor Oscar for its star, Ray Milland. We'll hear Mr. Milland, along with his co-stars Jane Wyman and Howard Da Silva, in episodes of Suspense, plus a radio recreation of the film. Mr. Da Silva stars in "You Take Ballistics" (originally aired on CBS on March 13, 1947), Ms. Wyman stars in "Catch Me if You Can" (originally aired on CBS on February 17, 1949), and Mr. Milland stars in "Chicken Feed" (originally aired on CBS on September 8, 1949). Then Milland and Wyman reunite in The Lady Esther Screen Guild Theatre (originally aired on CBS on January 7, 1946), and Ray Milland joins Jack Benny in a spoof of the film (originally aired on NBC on March 10, 1946).
