S2#12 - Penny Townsend - Part 2

Part 2 of my #podcast with Penny Townsend, Global Salesforce Partner at IBM drops today.

We delve deeper into the psychology of the human psyche, which is so important for those seeking to master the art of #leadership.

I totally agree with her.

Sometimes, being paternalistic, and trying to ‘help’ isn’t helpful.

It’s saying:

I’m OK. You’re not OK.
I’m up here. You’re down there.
It makes us unequal.
And it makes me uncomfortable.
You not being OK needs to be ‘fixed’.

It’s key to remember that all of us are very different, made up of our varied background, experiences, agenda, baggage, dreams, hopes and perspectives about the world.

To begin to connect at a deeper human level, we need to meet people where they’re at.

Another really deep and wonderful conversation with an amazing lady.
You don’t want to miss this.
