068. Leadership and The Nuance of Power with Michael Wenderoth

💭 Is power fuel or fire?

We are joined by Michael Wenderoth in today's episode wherein he offers a thought-provoking overview of the qualities and abilities in navigating the power and politics of leadership that are valuable for organizations and individuals. He is an executive coach that has helped 1000s of executives to ethically leverage power and ascend in their career.

Power is dynamic in its behavior in organizations and its impact depends on the leaders who yield it. In order to achieve goals, power and politics should be used with its nuance in mind, instead of a binary point of view. From his book Get Promoted, Michael shares his 3-part framework of the Rock, the Map, and the Snowball that will help leaders understand how to use power, exercise it in ways that will make things happen for them and more so, multiply.

Michael challenges you to reexamine your assumptions, reframe the negative association with power, work through it to fit it into what's authentic for you and ultimately, advocate for yourself.
