In this episode Judith Germain speaks to Tim Spiker about his "Who Not What" principle and leadership development. Tim shares how a chance encounter with a multi-level marketing organisation sparked his lifelong passion for studying and teaching leadership. He was struck by the negative views on being led by others, which motivated him to learn more about effective leadership.
In this conversation Tim emphasises the importance of leaders being both inwardly sound and others-focused.
Tim and Judith discuss the importance of investing in leadership development not just for senior executives, but also for frontline managers and supervisors who have a disproportionate impact on the organisation. They caution against neglecting leadership at lower levels.
Tim Spiker's book, The only leaders worth following, reveals the data-driven, accidentally-discovered, and rarely leveraged truth within leadership known as the Who not what principle.
