The Leadership Skill Nobody Teaches You: True Accountability

The SHIFT Forward with Dr. Cindy Pace

Show Notes

Leadership frameworks offer you a roadmap for how to excel at your job. But most are missing some crucial elements. Power, identity, and accountability shape our ability to lead well.

Join my conversation with Aiko Bethea, founder of RARE Coaching & Consulting and author of Anchored, Aligned, Accountable, as we explore power dynamics, identity, values, agency, and what it really means to lead yourself.

Becoming a better leader isn't about finding a magic formula. It's about understanding yourself, interrogating the systems around you, and taking responsibility for how you show up.
