Can everyone really lead at work? How can individuals authorize themselves to exercise leadership regardless of position? What is the role of authority in building leadership capacity for employees?
A tech industry professional, Sheila O'Connor, joins Chris and Brianna in a conversation about these questions and more on the latest episode of When Everyone Leads: The Podcast.
Sheila suggests that a tool for positive culture change is intentionally introducing a shared language. She experienced this first-hand when a number of her colleagues attended Kansas Leadership Center training together.
She doesn't believe that everyone has to lead, all the time though. Organizations and companies may need just enough people exercising leadership in order to make progress.
