Ep 19 - What It Takes To Be a Great Leader with Alisa Cohn

The Alchemy of Business Show

DESCRIPTION:

Many leaders are perceived as competent, confident, and in control. People come to them for support, direction, and advice. As a business owner or leader in your organization, you are expected to have answers. But as human beings, we are not all-knowing. This can lead to self-doubt and Imposter Syndrome. This is why embracing vulnerability and letting your team see you as a human is one step to becoming a great leader.

In this episode of The Alchemy of Business, Alisa Cohn, author, and start-up coach, joins our host, Steve Rodgers, to talk about leadership and what it takes to be a great leader. They talk about the human side of leadership and how to align your intention with the impact you want to have.

Tune into this inspiring episode of The Alchemy of Business show which is not just for business leaders but for everyone who wishes to take charge of their life and help others achieve more.
