What if your greatest leadership achievement isn't what you accomplish yourself - but the leaders you develop who continue multiplying long after you're gone? In this episode of Leaders of Transformation, Nicole Jansen welcomes back leadership development expert and bestselling author Mac Lake to discuss his latest book, Super Multiplier. What does it take to build a leadership legacy that extends far beyond your own influence? Mac reveals how great leaders intentionally develop leaders who go on to develop other leaders – creating a multiplication effect that can impact organizations for generations. Drawing from decades of experience building leadership pipelines, Mac shares the mindset shifts and practical habits leaders need to intentionally develop others and create a culture of multiplication. Together, Nicole and Mac explore why most leadership development efforts fail, the hidden beliefs that prevent leaders from investing in others, and how to identify and unlock the potential already sitting within your organization. Whether you're leading a business, ministry, nonprofit, or team, this conversation will challenge you to think beyond leadership training and embrace leadership multiplication that lasts for generations. What We Discuss in this Episode Why leadership gaps are solved by developing people, not simply finding people The hidden mindsets that prevent leaders from developing others Why most organizations rely on the ineffective "wait and hope" leadership strategy The difference between leadership training and leadership transformation Why mindset must change before skill set can change How limiting beliefs hold emerging leaders back from reaching their potential What it means to "mine for the gold" in people How great leaders identify and cultivate strengths in others Lessons from Jesus' model of leadership development and multiplication Why leadership multiplication is more powerful than leadership addition How to develop leaders who can develop other leaders Why leadership development requires intentionality more than time Practical ways to develop leaders during everyday work activities How modeling, practice, and debriefing accelerate leadership growth Why failure is one of the greatest tools for leadership development The 4T Framework: Think, Try, Talk, and Train How leaders can continue growing by building on their strengths The importance of creating a replicable leadership development process What it means to build leadership four generations deep How to create a lasting leadership legacy within your organization Highlights  00:00 – Why Leadership Development Often Fails 02:30 – Leadership Gaps Aren't Solved by Finding People 06:00 – The Mindsets That Limit Leadership Multiplication 10:00 – Why Mindset Comes Before Skill Set 13:00 – The Problem with the "Wait and Hope" Strategy 16:00 – Leadership Training vs. Leadership Transformation 20:00 – Mining for the Gold in People 24:00 – What Jesus Teaches Us About Developing Leaders 29:00 – Why Leaders Think They Don't Have Time 33:00 – Everyday Opportunities to Develop Future Leaders 38:00 – Failure as Fertilizer for Growth 42:00 – The Power of Modeling and Debriefing 46:00 – How to Identify Your Next Growth Area 50:00 – The 4T Framework for Leadership Development 54:00 – How to Multiply Leaders Four Generations Deep 58:00 – Building a Leadership Legacy That Lasts Episode Show Notes and Links to Mac Lake's Books and Resources: https://leadersoftransformation.com/podcast/leadership/super-multipliers-how-to-multiply-great-leaders-four-generations-deep-with-mac-lake/ Check out our complete library of episodes and other leadership resources here: https://leadersoftransformation.com ________

Many association leaders volunteer because they genuinely care about helping their industry grow. The challenge is simple. Most volunteer leaders already have demanding full-time jobs, leaving little time to create new programs, improve member engagement, and think strategically about growth. In this episode of Grounding AI, Donna Peterson shares practical ways leaders can use artificial intelligence to help industry associations work smarter while building stronger member relationships. You will learn how AI can help organizations: • Review and repurpose existing content • Improve outdated webinars, presentations, and educational materials • Create stronger member surveys • Generate better event ideas based on member interests • Identify new audience segments for membership growth • Build stronger engagement through more personalized experiences The goal is not replacing human relationships. The goal is helping volunteer leaders save time so they can focus on building stronger communities. AI works best when it helps organizations think better, communicate better, and serve people better. If you lead an association, nonprofit, membership organization, or volunteer leadership team, this episode will give you practical ideas you can apply immediately.

Today, we're pulling Responding to the Holy Spirit, Part 1 from the archives. Just as we have passions for the world or our flesh to have its own way, the Holy Spirit who dwells within us has a holy passion to have His way in our lives. The Holy Spirit is jealous for our attention. As we humble ourselves and allow Him to reign in us, we find victory over our own desires and our passion for having our own way.

At 16, She was Addicted, Homeless, and Suicidal. Today, She Trains the FBI. | Dr. Abbie Maroño Nobody Came to Save Her   What happens when a sixteen-year-old girl realizes that nobody is coming to save her? For Dr. Abbie Maroño, that realization became the turning point that changed everything. Long before she was training members of the FBI, Secret Service, Homeland Security, and Interpol, she was battling addiction, homelessness, despair, and a growing certainty that her life was headed toward tragedy. Then came a moment of reckoning. A moment where she understood that waiting for rescue was no longer an option. She would either save herself or lose herself. In this deeply personal and intellectually fascinating conversation, Dov Baron sits down with one of the world's leading experts in human behavior to explore the forces that shape influence, trust, belonging, shame, trauma, resilience, and personal transformation. Together they unpack why people make decisions about us before we've finished speaking, how social engineering really works, why belonging may be humanity's deepest psychological need, and why healing is not a destination but a lifelong process. This is not a conversation about becoming perfect. It's a conversation about becoming conscious.      In This Episode • How people form impressions before logic enters the conversation • The science behind influence and persuasion • What social engineering really is • Why belonging drives so much human behavior • The hidden power of shame • Healthy shame versus toxic shame • Addiction, trauma, and recovery • Why success doesn't automatically heal emotional wounds • How childhood experiences continue shaping adulthood • What the world's top security agencies understand about trust • Why healing is a lifelong journey Website:https://www.abbiemarono.com Instagram: @drabbieofficial LinkedIn: Dr. Abbie Maroño   Memorable Quotes "Nobody was coming." "You can't hurt me with me." "The work is never done." "Good people do bad things. Bad people do good things." "I get to choose who I am." "Belonging is one of the most foundational human needs."

In this episode, Tom Brooke, CEO of the GCMA, is joined by Ben Driver, CEO of Royal Blackheath Golf Club, and Scott Clark, Managing Director of Woking Golf Club, to discuss the importance of leadership development and the responsibility leaders have to continually invest in themselves in order to better serve those around them. Tom opens the conversation by exploring why leadership development is so important, particularly within the club sector, and why personal growth can sometimes be overlooked in formal education and management programmes. While technical knowledge and operational expertise remain important, the discussion focuses on the value of developing the skills, behaviours and self-awareness that enable leaders to have a greater impact on their teams and organisations. Drawing on their own experiences, Tom, Ben and Scott reflect on their leadership journeys and the development opportunities that have shaped them throughout their careers. They discuss the lessons learned, the challenges faced and the importance of remaining committed to continuous improvement regardless of experience or seniority. The conversation explores how personal development translates into everyday leadership, from building stronger relationships and creating positive working environments to making better decisions and supporting the growth of others. The guests share how increased self-awareness and a greater understanding of human behaviour have helped them become more effective leaders and colleagues. A key theme is the role emotional intelligence plays within the wider leadership toolkit. The panel discusses how understanding yourself can help you better understand those around you, enabling leaders to adapt their approach to different individuals, communicate more effectively and create stronger, more engaged teams. Ben and Scott also share how their development has equipped them to handle difficult conversations with greater confidence and empathy, balancing accountability with understanding while maintaining positive working relationships. The discussion extends beyond team leadership to the challenge of leading upwards, examining how leaders can build productive relationships with boards and committees, manage differing perspectives and influence decision-making through effective communication and trust. Throughout the episode, the guests reflect on the tangible impact that ongoing leadership development has had on their own performance and on the people they lead. The conversation highlights the idea that the more leaders invest in understanding and developing themselves, the better equipped they are to support, inspire and develop others. This episode offers practical insights for managers and leaders at all stages of their careers who are committed to continuous growth and recognise that great leadership begins with personal development. https://gcma.org.uk/ https://www.royalblackheath.com/ https://wokinggolfclub.co.uk/   Connect with Us: Instagram: @golfclubtalkuk Website: Golf Club Talk UK https://www.linkedin.com/in/leighton-walker-2708b627/   A big thanks to our partners: Toro - Click here for more information Himalayas Golf - Click here for more information   Support us here: https://buymeacoffee.com/gctuk Rate & Review Please leave a 5-star review and share this episode with your golf circle!  

How does a company come back from an existential crisis and become one of the strongest brands in the world again? In this episode of the LEITWOLF® Podcast, Stefan talks about one of the most impressive turnarounds in business history: the LEGO case. A brand many of us have known since childhood was on the brink of collapse in the early 2000s. Too many products, too much complexity, rising costs, and a lost focus on what customers truly wanted pushed LEGO into a serious crisis. Stefan shares the leadership lessons behind this comeback: why more initiatives do not automatically lead to more success, why reducing costs and driving growth can happen at the same time, and why great leadership does not mean having all the answers yourself. For LEGO, the key was a return to its core brand, radical simplification, and leadership that started listening again: to customers, employees, and retail partners. An episode about crisis, focus, and clarity – and about why great comebacks rarely begin with more complexity, but with consistent leadership. ––– Do you like the LEITWOLF® Leadership podcast?

And he breaks down what it takes to create the “door” for feedback to happen, how to make it useful, and why strengths deserve just as much attention as growth areas.If you're a leader, founder, or high performer who cares about sustainable growth, this episode will help you:Build a practical definition of growth readiness: energy + clarityUnderstand why effective doesn't mean being rightCreate a healthier relationship with feedback (giving and receiving)Turn vague feedback into something specific, usable, and actionableUse technology to support better leadership, without losing the human partConnect with JaredWebsite:  https://your360.ai LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/goralnick/ Send us Fan MailSupport the showConnect with Steve MellorStay connected and keep growing with Steve:LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/steve-mellor-cc/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/coachstevemellorBook Steve to speak at your next event → www.stevemellorspeaks.comSupport the GrowthReady Podcast by leaving a 5-star rating → Apple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/growthready-podcast/id1406082163Connect with GrowthReadyJoin the community and keep your growth journey going:LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/wearegrowthready/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/growthreadypodcast/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/growthreadywithcoachstevemellorOfficial Website - https://growthready.com/----This podcast was produced on Riverside and released via ...

Why the most effective communicators help people see not just what's changing, but why it matters to them.For Sinéad Bovell, effective communication isn't just about explaining what's coming next—it's about giving people the confidence and agency to engage with it.Bovell is a futurist, founder of the tech education company WAYE, and an expert advisor to the United Nations AI Advisory Body. Known for making complex topics accessible to broad audiences, she has spent years helping leaders, organizations, and young people understand the implications of artificial intelligence and other transformative technologies. Her approach starts with a simple principle: meet people where they are and connect big ideas to what matters in their lives. “If you scare people too much, if you disempower them, [and] they do unsubscribe from the very activities you need them to lean into.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Bovell joins host Matt Abrahams to discuss how to communicate complexity without overwhelming people and why skills like adaptability and judgment are becoming more valuable in the age of AI. From making emerging technologies more accessible to building trust through relevance and empathy, they discuss what it takes to help audiences engage with change rather than fear it.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premium.Episode Reference Links:Sinéad BovellConnect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedIn Chapters:(00:00) - Introduction (01:00) - Explaining Complex Ideas (03:48) - The Future of Soft Skills (06:52) - Talking About AI Without Fear (10:33) - Storytelling for Young Audiences (12:46) - Reaching Young Audiences (15:01) - Career Pivots & Reinvention (16:53) - Becoming a Better Communicator (18:59) - The Final Three Questions (25:09) - Conclusion

Today, we're pulling Reaching the Next Generation, Part 2 from the archives. The Church misses something vital when it overlooks the “dew” of youth that God has given to bring refreshment and life. Too often, we wait for young people to mature instead of helping them mature. Rather than counting them out until they are older, we can give them opportunities right where they are and walk alongside them as they grow. We have the privilege of being encouragers, affirmers, and investors in them.

What if educating your people so well that they could leave was exactly the point? At Your Health, that's not a risk to manage — it's the philosophy that built an entire learning ecosystem. In this episode, Jamie talks with Aubrey Wall, who came to Your Health from a background in education and now leads Your Health University, the organization's learning management system and continuous-development engine. Aubrey brings an educator's eye to a fast-evolving healthcare environment, where best practice changes by the day and meeting patients where they are demands that staff never stop learning. Here's what you'll hear: Why a healthcare company runs 12-month, Department of Labor–registered apprenticeships — including programs in management, value-based care, population health, and hospice aide preparation How gamification is being built into nurse instruction (straight from Aubrey's dissertation research) The difference between Your Health University (your classroom) and the Hub (your resource library) How LinkedIn Learning delivered roughly $4.2 million in CEUs to staff last year Meeting Leah — the new AI assistant that helps employees find exactly the right course If you've ever believed growing your people is a cost rather than the whole point, this conversation will change how you think.

In this episode, Kevin Black joins David to explore why leadership so often feels chaotic and why most leadership development fails to prepare leaders for that reality. Together, they examine the gap between how leadership is taught and how it's experienced, unpacking how leaders respond to pressure, uncertainty, and loss of control and why those responses can either escalate or stabilise chaos. Kevin shares insights from his research into leadership under pressure, introducing a more grounded way of understanding what effective leadership looks like when conditions are volatile and ambiguous. The conversation also focuses on the role of Learning & Development. Kevin explains where traditional leadership programmes fall short, what L&D can do differently to prepare leaders for real-world complexity and how embracing chaos as a design constraint - not a flaw - can lead to more credible and impactful leadership development. If you're responsible for developing leaders and questioning whether current approaches are enough, this episode is for you. Take your L&D to the next level Take advantage of thousands of hours of analysis. Hundreds of conversations with industry innovators and 25+ years of hands-on global L&D leadership. It's all distilled into one framework to help you level up L&D. Access the L&D Maturity Model here - https://360learning.com/maturity-model KEY TAKEAWAYS If L&D keeps treating leadership as generic empathy and communication training, it leaves leaders under-skilled in critical thinking, planning, strategy execution, and behavioural adaptability – unprepared for the chaos they face. Reconnect leadership to context, critical thinking, planning and behavioural adaptability, so leaders can recognise the patterns of chaos and work with it rather than be overwhelmed by it. BEST MOMENTS “Chaos is experienced at the individual level, but it's measured at the team level.” “If leadership education is all people-oriented, and you're not learning how to critically think, plan, link your communication, then you are inviting people to go into behavioural overdrive.” “You should have a direct line to the C suite... Don't be the handmaid of HR and just doing services.” Kevin Black Bio Kevin Black is globally recognised as a leadership strategist and researcher, specialising in how leaders perform under pressure and uncertainty. Drawing on six years of frontline experience in the U.S. Army, he helps organisations develop leaders who make better decisions, build resilient teams, and deliver results when traditional leadership models fall short. Kevin is also the author of Strength in Chaos (2025), which equips leaders with a practical framework for navigating complexity and driving performance in high-stakes environments.

In this episode of The Leadership Educator Podcast, Lauren and Dan talk with Dr. Kat Callahan and Dr. Sean Connable about New Directions for Student Leadership Issue 185, Pop Culture's Contributions to Leadership Development. The conversation explores how leadership educators can use pop culture as more than an attention-getter and instead treat it as a serious tool for examining storytelling, cultural values, identity, and leadership development. Listeners will hear examples from podcasts, sports, comic books, television, and other cultural spaces, along with practical ideas for helping students critically examine the stories that shape how society defines leadership.

What Does Your Legacy Really Mean? When you hear the word legacy, what comes to mind? A name on a building? A foundation created after you're gone? Or something far simpler — the way you show up every day and the impact you quietly leave behind? I sat down with Kari Alterman, founder of Good Name Advisors, to explore how each of us can shape our legacy with intention — starting now, not someday. Kari helps individuals and families clarify their values, elevate their giving, and preserve their good name through thoughtful, lasting philanthropy. What struck me most in our conversation is that legacy isn't about wealth or waiting until the end of life. It's about how you treat people, where you choose to give, and how you align your actions with your values today. My Take Too many people wait to think about their legacy. They assume it starts with money or ends with a big gesture. Kari reframed this for us: legacy is built moment by moment — through kindness, intention, and generosity that matches who you are. Whether you give $5,000, $50, or just your time, what matters most is purpose and INTENT.

On this episode of The Buzz, Scott Luton is joined by special co-host Dr. Muddassir Ahmed and special guest Anthony Reeves, Vice President of Global Brand & Creative at Kohler and author of Eat the Donkey: Why Great Companies Embrace Discomfort. Together, they explore the realities of AI adoption, decision-making optimization, innovation, leadership, and what separates organizations that thrive from those that struggle to keep pace. As supply chains continue to evolve in the age of AI, organizations face critical decisions about technology adoption, data quality, change management, and leadership. Scott, Muddassir, and Anthony examine why many AI initiatives fail, what companies can learn from both successes and setbacks, and why strong decision-making remains one of the most valuable competitive advantages. The conversation also explores the growing importance of human connection, brand differentiation, organizational culture, and the willingness to embrace discomfort in pursuit of long-term growth. Drawing on experiences from Amazon, Kohler, Starbucks, and other global brands, Anthony shares powerful lessons on innovation, leadership, and staying true to what makes an organization unique. Key Takeaways: AI success depends as much on adoption, change management, and leadership as it does on technology. High-quality, contextualized data remains the foundation for effective AI implementation. Organizations must learn from failed initiatives just as much as successful ones. Soft skills, emotional intelligence, and human connection will become increasingly valuable as AI handles more routine work. Strong brands remain differentiated by purpose, customer experience, and authenticity—not technology alone. Great leaders make difficult decisions early rather than delaying action until opportunities have passed. Whether you're leading a supply chain transformation, evaluating AI investments, or building a stronger organization, this episode offers practical insights from leaders who have navigated innovation at the highest levels. You'll walk away with actionable advice on decision-making, change management, leadership, and creating organizations that can thrive amid constant disruption.

How do you bridge the divide between how leaders show up and what teams truly want? On this week's episode of the Do Good to Lead Well podcast, I sit down with Allison Howell, CEO of Hogan Assessments, to discuss their Leadership Divide Global Report, which draws on the responses from 9,794 employees across 25 countries. The findings challenge the conventional myths about what makes a great leader, and why charisma and ambition are not enough.Allison Howell pulls back the curtain on “emergent” versus “effective” leadership, sharing why the traits that get people promoted often undermine team success. We also dive into one of the other key findings; why the attributes executives display don't match what employees crave, with nearly zero overlap. Critical leadership qualities such as cultivating trust, integrity, and humility, build both teams and organizations up, no matter the cultural context. She also shares concrete examples of the most common derailers in Hogan's research: behaviors that fast-track promotions but quietly undermine trust and morale. Allison also offers a candid look at strategic self-awareness, the value of global perspective, and practical ways any organization can move from bias to balanced judgment.If you're a leader, or an aspiring one, this episode delivers the research and real-world tactics you need to inspire true followership and foster organizational excellence in an era of rapid change.What You'll Learn- The uncomfortable truth about reputation versus identity (and which one actually runs your career).- Emergence versus effectiveness: why the leaders who get promoted aren't the ones teams need.- Why your greatest strength can also become a derailer.- The global trust crisis and the surprising place leaders are best positioned to rebuild it.- Accountability: why employees are saying "you first." - Personality is climate, behavior is weather; what that means for your ability to change.Podcast Timestamps(00:00) – What is Leadership?(03:57) - Reputation Versus Identity in Leadership Assessment(06:45) - The Leadership Divide: Key Findings and Surprises(10:49) - Leadership Emergence vs. Leadership Effectiveness(13:08) - Behaviors That Get Leaders Promoted (But Hurt Teams)(20:20) - Closing the Leadership Gap: Individual and Organizational Solutions(28:06) - Balancing Ambition, Confidence, and Humility(34:59) - Can Leadership Skills Be Developed?(38:10) - The Current Context of Leadership Expectations(45:52) - Cultural Differences in Leadership PreferencesKEYWORDSPositive Leadership, Hogan Assessments, Personality Assessment, Team Performance, Reputation vs Identity, Emergent Leadership, Leadership Gap, Charismatic Leadership, Strategic Self-Awareness, Leadership Development, Accountability, Integrity, Trust in Leadership, Communication Skills, Humility, Emotional Self-Regulation, Dark Side of Personality, 360 feedback, Global Leadership Trends, Data-Driven Selection, Cross-Cultural Leadership Differences, CEO Success

Send us Fan MailHave you ever felt like everyone is talking about marketing, sales, and scaling, yet no one is talking about the leadership challenges that come with building a business? That gap is exactly why leadership skills for female business owners deserve a much bigger conversation. Because while growth strategies matter, businesses ultimately succeed or struggle based on the people leading them.Women founders are building impactful companies while often balancing responsibilities far beyond the business itself. Yet conversations around business leadership for women frequently take a back seat to tactics and visibility. And this is where many entrepreneurs discover a hard truth: your business can only grow as far as your leadership allows.The People Side of Business was created to address that missing piece. This new chapter focuses on the human side of sustainable success, from team management strategies and business communication skills to creating trust, accountability, and alignment within your organization. Because growth is not just about systems—it is about people.As your company expands, understanding how to manage employees and team members effectively becomes essential.

AI can accelerate answers. But what happens when it weakens the development of judgment, critical thinking, and human connection? Jennifer May explores the growing pressure facing middle managers, the risks organizations face when relationship-building and professional development fall away, and why ethical culture depends on much more than policies and compliance training. Drawing on nearly 30 years in ethics and compliance leadership, Jennifer shares why she believes compliance is fundamentally a relationship business and how organizations can move from being the “office of no” to becoming strategic partners in building a healthy culture. Jennifer also shares a powerful story from her university compliance work that shaped her “yes and” philosophy, revealing how trust, collaboration, and creative problem-solving can help organizations navigate difficult tensions without losing sight of innovation or integrity. This conversation is a timely exploration of leadership, accountability, AI, and the human skills organizations cannot afford to lose. Jennifer founded May Solutions Group to help companies make ethics practical, human, and actionable. She helps organizations build systems that people actually trust by replacing complexity with clarity and making ethical decision-making easier in day-to-day work. You'll discover:Why AI may weaken judgment development The growing squeeze on middle managers Why compliance is a relationship business How ethical cultures are strengthened over time The “yes and” mindset that builds trustConnect with on Social MediaLinkedIn Website May Consulting GroupCheck out all the episodesLeave a review on Apple PodcastsConnect with Meredith on LinkedIn

In this episode of Lead Time, Tim Ahlman and Jack Kalleberg sit down with Philip Meinzen, a longtime LCMS educator and creator of The Grace Formula, for a powerful conversation about stewardship, generosity, tithing, debt, vocation, and the mission of the local church.Philip argues that the church has often allowed the culture to disciple Christians in money, resources, debt, and scarcity — while Scripture gives us a much richer vision of life under grace. The question is not, “How much does the church need?” The better question is, “What does God's grace mean to us, and how does it shape the way we live?”Learn more about Philip's work at https://graceflows.orgSupport the show⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️Care about the future of the LCMS?Join the LCMS Current!

In this episode, Kevin Black joins David to explore why leadership so often feels chaotic and why most leadership development fails to prepare leaders for that reality. Together, they examine the gap between how leadership is taught and how it's experienced, unpacking how leaders respond to pressure, uncertainty, and loss of control and why those responses can either escalate or stabilise chaos. Kevin shares insights from his research into leadership under pressure, introducing a more grounded way of understanding what effective leadership looks like when conditions are volatile and ambiguous. The conversation also focuses on the role of Learning & Development. Kevin explains where traditional leadership programmes fall short, what L&D can do differently to prepare leaders for real-world complexity and how embracing chaos as a design constraint - not a flaw - can lead to more credible and impactful leadership development. If you're responsible for developing leaders and questioning whether current approaches are enough, this episode is for you. Take your L&D to the next level Take advantage of thousands of hours of analysis. Hundreds of conversations with industry innovators and 25+ years of hands-on global L&D leadership. It's all distilled into one framework to help you level up L&D. Access the L&D Maturity Model here - https://360learning.com/maturity-model KEY TAKEAWAYS If L&D keeps treating leadership as generic empathy and communication training, it leaves leaders under-skilled in critical thinking, planning, strategy execution, and behavioural adaptability – unprepared for the chaos they face. Reconnect leadership to context, critical thinking, planning and behavioural adaptability, so leaders can recognise the patterns of chaos and work with it rather than be overwhelmed by it. BEST MOMENTS “Chaos is experienced at the individual level, but it's measured at the team level.” “If leadership education is all people-oriented, and you're not learning how to critically think, plan, link your communication, then you are inviting people to go into behavioural overdrive.” “You should have a direct line to the C suite... Don't be the handmaid of HR and just doing services.” Kevin Black Bio Kevin Black is globally recognised as a leadership strategist and researcher, specialising in how leaders perform under pressure and uncertainty. Drawing on six years of frontline experience in the U.S. Army, he helps organisations develop leaders who make better decisions, build resilient teams, and deliver results when traditional leadership models fall short. Kevin is also the author of Strength in Chaos (2025), which equips leaders with a practical framework for navigating complexity and driving performance in high-stakes environments.
