Episode notes

In this episode of The State of Work Today, I sit down with Mark Mears - bestselling author, keynote speaker, and Chief Growth Officer of LEAF Growth Ventures - to talk about how leaders can go beyond managing tasks to building legacies. We dig into Mark’s LEAF model - Leadership, Engagement, Accountability, and Fulfillment - and why purpose is the missing ingredient in so many workplaces today. He shares powerful insights on the cost of disengagement, the myth of work-life balance, and why companies must shift from transactional management to relational leadership. If you’re a leader looking to create lasting impact, this conversation is for you. Listen now and take the first step toward legacy leadership.
