#060 What Resonates with You?

11-07-2023 • 32 mins

This week it’s my solo episode. I’m Paula Eddy-Wilcox, your Game of Leadership Host and Founder, and Director of On Point Leadership.

It’s hard to believe that the last 9 weeks have gone so fast and we are at episode 60 already. In today’s episode, we look at the last 9 episodes and find out what’s resonated for me, that I can reflect on and share with you. There are some awesome insights that my three guests, Tom Willis, Nathalie May, and Becky Field share. They couldn’t be more different in their vocations and approach to leadership. A fascinating time spent with each of them and I encourage you to go back and listen to their individual episodes if you haven’t already.

Todays’ themes include career planning (or not), culture/trust in the workplace, super doers, taking time for you, adopting a growth mindset, seeing greatness in others, the things that define you, the soft side of leadership, the games we play in leadership and the ripple effect.

It’s been incredible to chat to these three wonderful leaders who so openly share their insights, to help you grow and develop as leaders. So do us the honour of finishing off the last task or chore, grabbing a drink, and settling in to join me for a really insightful listen.
