Do you think of yourself as a good listener? Have you heard of the 4-levels of listening? As with most things, there is a system...

This week, I'm joined by Communications Expert and Systems Awareness Strategist, Phyllis Dealy, to discuss the critical role of awareness and listening in effective leadership. We'll be chatting all things from Mad Men and the 'Ad World' to the importance of systems thinking and how it can lead to better decision-making.

Phyllis outlines her process for systems thinking, implementing change and addressing the challenges leaders face during crises. And we talk about the four levels of listening, how they impact communication, collaboration, and the leadership lessons throughout.

Plenty in this episode about the nuances of listening, the importance of navigating disagreement with respect, and the critical role of effective communication in leadership. Whether you want to achieve the best outcomes as leader, find the ingredients for successful offsite days, or get to know your people better; there's something here for leaders like YOU.

Huge thank you to Phyllis for a great conversation and indulging some of my silly tangent questions about Mad Men!!
