Leading Inside The Box

February 12, 2020/0 Comments/in Business Toolkit, Communications, Leadership, Strategy /by Ryan Shaw

Victor Prince, thoughtLEADERS Principal, sat down with Jim and Jan of The Leadership Podcast to discuss leading inside the box.

In continuation of our new collaboration with The Leadership Podcast, Victor explains what exactly it means to lead inside the box in this short form “chalk talk.” These chalk talk series are bitesize sessions on a common (but challenging) leadership issue.

Jim and Jan kick things off asking Victor to explain what it means to lead inside the box, to which Victor explains the need for leaders to adjust and shift their leadership style and format to address the needs of the individuals on the team they are working; that leadership cannot be a one-size-fits-all.

Victor goes further to discuss that the “box” analogy is not meant as a limiting factor, but rather, the boxes are positions that everyone finds themselves in over the course of time and how each of those stages/positions requires something different from the leader involved.

Stay tuned for more of these brief Chalk Talks featuring Victor, as well as many more members of the thoughtLEADERS team.
