267 Genius Leadership: Strategies for Success and Sustainability
In this episode of the Leadership without Losing Your Soul podcast, you’ll dive into an engaging conversation with your host, David Dye, and special guest Melanie van de Velde, author of Lead Like a Genius. You'll explore how justice should play a role in the way rewards are distributed in business—whether based on talent, effort, or risk. Melanie shares her insights on the power of staying true to your purpose, even drawing from childhood memories that shape who you are as a leader.
As you listen, you'll learn about the natural human instinct to care for one another and why businesses should never lose sight of this. Melanie also introduces the concept of "just payments" and emphasizes the significance of fair compensation in the workplace.
You'll discover the "impact wheel," a tool Melanie uses to break down the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into four key focus areas that can help companies address root causes effectively: empowerment, just payments, health and wellbeing, and climate action. The episode wraps up with a thought-provoking discussion on the difference between good and bad profit and how merging profit with impact can pave the way for a better future.
Leadership Without Using Your Soul podcast offers insightful discussions on leadership and management, focusing on essential communication skills, productivity, teamwork, delegation, and feedback to help leaders navigate various leadership styles, management styles, conflict resolution, time management, and active listening while addressing challenges like overwhelm, burnout, work-life balance, and problem-solving in both online and in-person teams, all aimed at cultivating human-centered leadership qualities that promote growth and success.
