Asking questions is easy, but asking the right questions is empowering. 

The challenge for emerging leaders is knowing when, how, and what to ask, but this is often a skill that has to be learned by asking many, many.... many..... terrible questions long before we learn how to ask the right ones.

In this episode, you’ll hear from Carol Boston, a Business Development & Leadership Coach who will offer her insight into empowering questions. Carol will share her definition of empowering questions along with providing some example questions. Lastly, Carol will offer insight into how you can craft your own empowering questions.

We tell our leaders to think, to consider all the possibilities so we can safeguard our teams, our organizations, and ourselves.

In short, we’re asking emerging leaders to be thought leaders.

But what is a thought leader? How does one become a thought leader?

In this episode, you’ll hear from Vladimer Botsvadze, a Thought Leader, Professor, Startup Advisor, Fortune 500 Consultant, Speaker, Mentor, and Coach, who will offer advice and practical tools for all emerging leaders to be the most effective and efficient thought leaders possible.

What separates good leaders from exceptional ones?

The answer might be simpler—and harder—than we think. In this illuminating conversation with leadership expert Kevin Eikenberry, Chief Potential Officer of the Kevin Eikenberry Group and host of the Remarkable Leadership Podcast, we dig into the critical skill of flexibility that so many leaders understand conceptually but struggle to practice.

Kevin reveals why most new leaders get trapped in rigid thinking patterns from the start. Promoted for technical expertise rather than leadership ability, they feel compelled to have immediate answers—creating a pattern of quick decisions based on limited perspective. This pattern becomes particularly problematic in today's complex world where old solutions rarely fit new problems.

Using the powerful metaphor of a mature tree, Kevin reframes the relationship between consistency and flexibility. Much like a tree with strong roots yet flexible branches, effective leaders remain consistent in their values and purpose while adapting their methods to changing circumstances. "We should be consistent in our what and why and flexible in our how," he explains, cutting through the false choice between being principled or adaptable.
