What is the most hard-won, unglamorous, yet high-performance skill in leadership?  It may be one that is almost never discussed: killing your darlings.

Owning It

Inspired by the leadership book Extreme Ownership, Sarah *convinced* Nate Shea from SecureStrux to return to the podcast and dig into what Owning It means on our teams. “What’s rewarded is repeated.” In a recent March 2024 article by Zenger and Folkman, the research about the culture of empowered teams shows that if we want high engagement and productivity, we need to set the tone and help our teams by trusting them, encouraging them, and letting mistakes be opportunities to grow. It requires a fair dose of humility and willingness to let go of control. Nate and Sarah discuss the wins and the challenges of creating that culture and reveal what they think is the secret sauce to motivation and empowerment.
