The conventional leadership advice is a lie: Don't show fear. Suppress the anger. Keep your cool. But what if that intense energy behind frustration or rage is the most potent fuel you're wasting?   In this thought-provoking deep dive, author and executive coach Greg Stewart (drgregstewart.com) introduces his radical concept of unleashing the rage of negative emotions —not at your team, but against the internal and external obstacles holding you back. This isn't about becoming an irrational boss; it’s about transforming raw, negative energy into highly disciplined, goal-directed action.   Listen to Greg unpack his three-part framework, I³ (Information, Interpretation, Intensity) , a system for leaders who are ready to stop managing their inner life and start maximizing their impact. In This Episode, You'll Learn: The I³ Framework Decoded: How this critical thinking system acts as a "Panama Canal" for your emotions, ensuring you are operating from a place of rational truth, not immediate reaction. The Uncomfortable Truth of Inflation: Greg details the three reasons why negative emotions become inflated (e.g., believing a lie, taking things personally, or unaddressed trauma) and why a true leader must look in the mirror before leading others. The issue isn't the negative emotion itself, but the inflation of it.   From "Have More" to "Become More": Why even successful VPs and directors hit a wall in their mid-thirties, and how finding the Iron Man Core—a mission, calling, and purpose—is the only way to be a leader, not just "a machine managing other machines".   Mandatory Leadership Growth Rituals: Discover the simple, high-impact practice of Proactive Teachability—a weekly check-in designed to relentlessly eradicate your blind spots, thereby skyrocketing your "referent power" and leadership credibility.   The Test of Truth: Greg explains that productive growth is about constantly treating your beliefs as a hypothesis you must validate, using your family as the toughest training ground for your emotional intelligence. This episode of the Growth Hacking Culture Podcast challenges the psychological taboos in modern leadership and delivers a practical manual for turning your most difficult feelings into your greatest strategic advantage.
