#38 Leader Development is More Than a Monthly Lecture, Here’s a Better Blueprint

Episode notes

Welcome to the 3x5 leadership podcast―a show dedicated to making more intentional leaders regardless of role, rank, or responsibility because we believe that better leaders and build a better world. The reality is, however, that you cannot successfully and sustainably pour into others from an empty cup. So, how do you keep your cup full as a leader? This show aims to fill your cup with simple, practical strategies so you can live, lead, and learn more intentionally. You can listen to the episode on Apple and Spotify ! When you look at your work calendar, where do you see “leader development”? And when your team sees it, what does it mean to them? If it’s a laid-back hour of lecture or forced group discussions, it might be time to reconsider. In this episode, we’ll dive into the 70-20-10 model for development planning and show you why those lectures and discussions only cover about 10% of what a leader truly needs to grow and thrive. The remaining 90%? It doesn’t require a ton of extra effort on your part as the leader developer. What it takes is intentionality and building relationships that reinforce the experiences your team is already having.
