Rethinking power

The episode that didn't turn out how I imagined!

This week’s How to Take the Lead conversation wasn’t the one I thought I’d be having with Carrie-Ann.

I admit when we were planning the series and I suggested tackling the topic, I did so with the intention of calling out those awful behaviours we see in leaders when power has gone to their head.

I was totally focussed in on one type of power and how I felt it had been abused.

Power trips. Ego. Boys club. Bullying.

This was front and centre of my thinking.

But as I started researching the topic, my views changed.
