Listening, Leading & Being A Grown-Up | Carolyn Coughlin - 660

Meet Carolyn Coughlin, the acclaimed guru of better listening, improved leadership, and navigating the complexities of adult life. As we step into the grown-up world, Carolyn's wisdom becomes invaluable in understanding how meaning-making evolves and shapes our lives. I had the opportunity to sit down with her and ask some pressing questions that have been on my mind.

One of the key points we explored was the notion of authenticity and how leaders should embrace it. But what does authenticity even mean? Are there guidelines for balancing authenticity with vulnerability without oversharing? We also delved into the profound impact of language and the choices we make on our interactions and relationships.

As a founding partner of Cultivating Leadership and Growth Edge Consulting, Carolyn is renowned for teaching leaders how to achieve 'complexity fitness.' But what exactly does that mean, and how can we thrive in the face of complexity?

Carolyn provides valuable insights into what attributes make a good leader and those that should be avoided. Her expertise in adult development—a term that piqued my curiosity—shed light on the transformative journey we undergo as we grow.

With moments to spare, I finally reached my intended topic: how to become a better listener—an area where Carolyn's expertise shines and the reason I sought her guidance in the first place.

Enjoy!
