Leadership Performance Under Pressure · 2026-01-15 · 18 min
Every leader has blind spots. Not because they’re careless or incompetent - but because they’re human. In this episode, Dex shares a formative leadership mistake from early in his career and uses it to unpack how beliefs, biases, and unexamined assumptions quietly shape leadership decisions. Often at a cost. You’ll explore why blind spots exist, how they show up under pressure, and the practical signals that tell you when one is running the show. Dex also explains why self-awareness alone isn’t enough - and how coaching (human and AI) can help you see what you literally cannot see on your own. This is about leadership maturity, not self-criticism.
