E68: Karen Colligan: The Leadership Desert

Dr. Jean, The Results Queen® and her Special Guest Karen Colligan discuss the need for leadership development as organizations transition to hybrid work. Karen notes that the pandemic led to a “leadership desert” as training fell by the wayside. She and Dr. Jean emphasize that good leadership requires self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and communication, regardless of work model. They stress the importance of organizations prioritizing development through assessments, coaching, and growth plans to improve employee retention and performance. Karen recommends listeners reflect on their leadership journey and goals, get feedback, and ask managers for support. Dr. Jean and Karen provide actionable advice and highlights the importance of continuous leadership development.
