The 3 Leadership Habits That Turn Managers Into Trusted Leaders
Manage episode 516271340 series 3659123
You’ve built a team, juggled priorities, and probably asked yourself more than once, “Why aren’t they just doing the thing?” If leading people feels harder than it should, you’re not alone and you’re not doing it wrong. But you might be defining leadership the wrong way.
In this episode, Chrissy Myers and Josh Troche get real (and get a little feisty) about what
leadership actually looks like in today’s workplace. Whether you're a small business owner, mid-level manager, or a leader-in-training, this conversation is packed with practical insights, relatable stories, and a few laughs (and one or two references to crappy wall art).
Discover why clarity in leadership builds trust and cuts through confusion, and how the 3 C’s: Clarity, Consistency, and Care shape strong team culture. Chrissy and Josh explore how servant leadership fosters accountability without falling into micromanagement, and share actionable tips on delegation, emotional intelligence, and follow-through. You'll also learn the key difference between management and leadership because one runs the day-to-day, and the other defines where you're headed.
This episode is your crash course in modern leadership habits that make a real impact on team culture, employee retention, and business growth with practical insights you can actually use.
Leading from the front or managing the chaos behind the scenes, you’ll walk away with a fresh understanding of visionary leadership, workplace values, and how to truly support your people.
