A conversation with inspirational leadership expert and bestselling author Lance Secretan. Lance has studied leadership all over the world, and in this episode, he explains what is needed - and what needs to be left behind - for a leader to be truly effective.The main issue with leadership thus far, Lance states, is that it has been based on motivation as opposed to inspiration. What makes those concepts so opposite from his perspective? The fact that motivation is fear-based, while inspiration is love-based. Here, Lance outlines the difference between lighting a fire under someone and lighting a fire within them.Lance believes that people are yearning for inspiration, and that a lack of it is a direct contributor to the Great Resignation. For leaders that are keen to change their approach, he offers some practical advice in this episode. For example, he expresses concern about the warrior-like language that we use at work and its potentially poisonous impact. Could language laced with love be the key to inspiring employees?People may believe the idea of love at work is woo-woo, but Lance preempts these criticisms, stating that all human beings need love and we can’t simply turn off this need from 9 to 5 while we work. This leads to an interesting discussion between Lance and Coaching.com CEO Alex Pascal about how we should treat work and life - and whether they are really the same thing or not.Listen to the full episode to learn what makes a leader special and why organizations need a dream rather than a mission and vision statement.
