We want your feedback and questions. Text us here.Leadership is about finding ways to help your team win, but it is also about supporting them through seasons of loss. It's not a matter of talent. Every leader will walk their team through seasons of loss. In those moments, your team doesn't need a cheerleader. They need a leader who knows how to be honest, visionary, and practical. In today's podcast, we're talking about the art of redemptive leadership in dark seasons.

"Sara, some of my newer leaders are really struggling. I know they want to shine, but they need support, and I don't have the time or skills to give them. Can you help?"  This is a conversation I've found myself in more and more over the last year. So, how did we get here?  More and more managers are being promoted into leadership roles without the training or support to succeed. In this episode, I unpack why so many emerging leaders are struggling: rapid reorgs, leaner teams, and the disappearance of formal leadership development. Then, I outline four key areas where new leaders need the most support. If you are an emerging leader in your organization, this episode will help you identify the skills you can develop to improve your leadership competence and confidence. If you are leading emerging leaders, this episode will help you more deeply understand how and why emerging leaders are struggling (often through no fault of their own) and what you can do to help them thrive. Whether you're an executive watching your emerging leaders flounder or a brand-new manager looking for your footing, this episode offers practical insights you can use right away. The hidden forces pushing people into leadership before they're ready The skill gaps most first-time leaders don't even know they have Four core areas every new leader needs to master: clarity & confidence, communication, coaching and people development, and leadership resilience How to spot when your rising leaders need extra support—and how to get it for them Links Mentioned: Attend my Influence & Ignite Retreat for Women Business Owners: saradean.com/retreat Hire me to speak: saradean.com/speaking Coach with me: https://saradean.com/executive-coaching-services Connect with me on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/saradeanspeaks Watch Shameless Leadership episodes on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@saradeanspeaks What You'll LearnInterested in becoming a sponsor of the Shameless Mom Academy?

Many companies talk about leadership – but only a few actually measure it. And that is where the real difference lies. Because what isn't measured cannot be improved. In this episode of the LEITWOLF® Podcast, Stefan explains why leadership measurement is so often neglected, what serious consequences this can have, and how organizations can strengthen both culture and results by defining, measuring, and consistently developing leadership. With examples from international projects and his own experience, Stefan shows why it's not enough to define leadership principles or run trainings – true impact only happens when leadership is made visible, assessed, and continuously improved. A clear message to leaders and organizations everywhere: No measurement, no impact – measurable leadership is what makes the difference. ––– Do you like the LEITWOLF® Leadership podcast?

In this episode of Positive Leadership Wednesday, I explore what it really means to be a demanding leader, without being demeaning. I share why being positive doesn't mean being weak or letting standards slide. Instead, I talk about how the best leaders expect the best from their teams and hold everyone accountable, but always in a supportive, uplifting way. I'll tell you how you can call people up to greatness, rather than calling them out, and why choosing encouragement over criticism can help your team truly thrive.

At some point, every sales team has experienced a “sales diva”  You know the type: the top-performing rep who plays by their own rules. They cherry-pick leads, dodge meetings, ignore the CRM, and expect special treatment because of past wins.  It starts small and it's a slippery slope into a toxic preferential culture that can hurt the other sales reps performers.   In this episode of Sales is NOT a Dirty Word, I reveal why “sales divas” quietly destroy team culture, stall long-term growth, and keep founders stuck in a cycle of dependency. More importantly, you'll learn how to break the pattern before it sabotages your revenue. In this episode, you'll discover: ✔ Why catering to one “star” rep kills motivation across your entire sales team ✔ The hidden dangers of relying on a single person for 80% of your revenue ✔ How to coach mediocre sales performers into confident top performers ✔ What to say when your sales diva refuses to collaborate or follow process ✔ The leadership shifts that build accountability, trust, and shared success Your best salesperson should never feel like they're holding your company hostage.  If your team feels uneven, cutthroat, or overly dependent on one high performer, this episode will show you how to reset your sales culture, protect your revenue, and build a team that wins together. #SalesIsNotADirtyWord #SalesLeadership #SalesCulture #SalesTeamPerformance #SalesManagementTips #SalesStrategy #HighPerformingTeams #AuthenticSelling #SalesCoaching #LeadYourTeam #ServiceProviderSales #SalesProcessFix

As Joanne Z. Tan emphasizes, celebration is a leadership skill, a mental discipline, and a path to success. By learning to direct your focus toward the uplifting, you gain control over your state of happiness and empower those around you. Happiness is not a reaction, it's a choice. Celebration is your daily practice for resilience, connection, and leadership impact. - To read it as a half-min blog   - To watch it as a 1-minute video When do we need celebration the most? Paradoxically, in the darkest moments. True leaders and professionals can redirect attention from despair toward something—anything—worth honoring. Why Celebrate the Everyday Celebration doesn't require birthdays or milestones. Every step along your journey matters. By celebrating daily, you train your mind to live here and now—content, fulfilled, and grounded, even in turbulent environments. The Leadership Edge in Celebration In times of economic uncertainty and political divide, leaders have a unique role: Celebrate small wins—yours and your team's.

Leadership isn't optional – it's what drives performance. But what happens when it's not a priority in your organization? When it's ignored, underfunded, or left to chance? In this episode of the LEITWOLF® Podcast, Stefan addresses an uncomfortable reality found in many companies – and explains what you can do, even if you're not at the top. He shares why a lack of leadership priority will eventually cost both culture and results, explores common root causes – from blind spots and fear to sheer complacency – and shows how you can still lead excellently in a challenging environment. You'll learn how to make leadership a priority within your own sphere of influence, how to strengthen your team, and how to lead upward with courage. Packed with real-life examples, actionable strategies, and one clear message: Leadership starts with you – no matter how it's practiced around you. ––– Do you like the LEITWOLF® Leadership podcast?

Perfect decisions? Almost never. Good decisions? They take courage – and clarity in the face of uncertainty. In this episode of the LEITWOLF® Podcast, Stefan explores how to lead decisively even when you don't have all the answers. Because waiting too long can cost you time, trust, and impact. You'll learn why, in 99.5% of leadership situations, fast is better than perfect – and how to put that into practice. Stefan shares personal experiences, introduces the concept of a “decision window,” and shows how clear communication and collective input can sharpen your thinking and lead to better outcomes. Leadership means deciding – not waiting. And sometimes, the smartest decision is the one you make with confidence despite the gap. ––– Do you like the LEITWOLF® Leadership podcast?
