Description
Arrogant. Charismatic. Narcissistic. If you were to name traits that define strong leaders, these words might spring to mind. The evidence, however, tells quite a different story. In this episode of The ABMP Podcast, Kristin and Darren are joined by professor and author Dr. Amer Kaissi to discuss how humility and ambition converge to make a great leader, the interesting dynamic between self-awareness and humility, and behaviors we can all learn to develop humble leadership within ourselves. Dr. Amer Kaissi is a professional speaker and a certified executive coach. His most recent book is Humbitious: the power of low-ego, high-drive leadership. Kaissi is an award-winning professor of Healthcare Administration at Trinity University, a top-15 program. He is also the author of the book Intangibles: The Unexpected Traits of High-Performing Healthcare Leaders,” which won the 2019 American College of Healthcare Executives (ACHE) Book of the Year award. At Trinity, Kaissi teaches courses in leadership, professional development, and public speaking. His research focuses on leadership, coaching, and strategy. He is an avid soccer fan and lives in San Antonio, Texas, with his wife and two teenagers. Hosts: Darren Buford is senior director of communications and editor-in-chief for ABMP.
