This episode explores James M. Kouzes and Barry Z. Posner’s The Leadership Challenge, a foundational text that distills leadership into five evidence-based, learnable practices. We break down the core framework—Model the Way, Inspire a Shared Vision, Challenge the Process, Enable Others to Act, and Encourage the Heart—and examine how these behaviours empower individuals to lead effectively, regardless of title or background. Drawing from decades of research, the book’s universal approach helps demystify leadership and equip people across industries and generations. Whether you're guiding a team or shaping a movement, this episode highlights how these timeless principles remain powerfully relevant in today’s evolving world.
