GrowUp Leadership Corner
Monthly insights into well known leaders and their founding teams
Everyone has a leadership superpower
There is huge strength in deeply understanding what makes you great at what you do. It allows you to embrace life fully and lean into this superpower at every turn. But it’s equally as important to understand your blind spots.
1. Why Follow the GrowUp Leadership Corner?
The traditional narrative around leadership is breaking down. We’re constantly bombarded with tips, hacks, and quick fixes, but most of these miss the mark because they fail to recognize the real-world complexities leaders face. I’m launching GrowUp Leadership Corner to cut through the noise and dive into the nuanced stories behind true leadership growth.
Drawing from the GrowUp framework I wrote about in my book, this newsletter will challenge you to think deeper about leadership—its contradictions, demands, and, ultimately, its human side. In a time when the workplace is rapidly evolving with trends like remote work, back-to-office battles, and cancel culture, leaders must understand how to adapt and thrive. This space is for leaders who are ready to confront these trends and rethink the qualities needed for growth.
2. What Kind of Community Are We Building Here?
This isn’t just a newsletter; it’s a space for those who are unafraid to disrupt the status quo and dig into what it really takes to lead in today’s world. We’ll explore the leadership journeys of well-known founders, not just to admire their success but to identify what it will take for them—and companies like theirs—to continue evolving.
Here, we don’t accept superficial advice. Instead, we’ll dive deep into both triumphs and missteps, examining how different leadership styles adapt (or fail to adapt) to the changing landscape. If you’re here, you’re ready to question old leadership paradigms and embrace the reality that leadership growth is a journey, not a destination.
